9 biggest tablets

Just a few years ago, tablet computers were quite popular. At that time, models with a relatively small screen were in greatest demand. Such devices were popular with consumers due to the fact that they could easily be taken with them by throwing them into a backpack or a pocket of a winter jacket. Yes, and the weight of such a tablet was quite acceptable in order to read books and watch videos for a long time. However, now these tablets are less interesting, they are almost completely supplanted by smartphones with a 6-inch display. That is why if a consumer looks towards a tablet computer, he expects to get a device with at least a 10-inch screen on its front panel. In short, we decided to tell you about the best "tablets" equipped with a large screen. In this case we will focus on a variety of gadgets - not only on models that are running Android.

HP ZBook x2 G4 i7-8550U 16Gb 512Gb

Rating: 4.9

By the name of this device, it is clear that Hewlett-Packard is positioning its creation as a laptop rather than a tablet. She did not even release a modification, complete with no keyboard. And, of course, the gadget functions under the control of a full-fledged Windows 10 operating system. The components that are available here are more than enough to run even demanding applications on your computer, such as Photoshop or Premiere Pro.

The HP ZBook x2 G4 Tablet PC is not just big, it's huge! On its front panel is a 14-inch IPS-display, whose resolution is 3840x2160 pixels. And add to this a fairly wide frame! And if you fasten the keyboard, the device will really cease to differ from the ordinary notebook. The hardest thing in this regard is not even straining dimensions, and weight - it reaches 2 kg. In short, you are unlikely to regularly carry such a tablet computer with you, unless you need it to work.

What will please the insides "pills"? And the fact that a desktop computer, most likely, cannot even boast of a similar power, if it is at your disposal. For example, 16 GB of RAM are built in here. The processor uses an Intel Core i7 8550U, which has enough power for most programs. And only the amount of permanent memory is not impressive - there are 512 GB here, which even some smartphones, which are much smaller, now can boast of.

Of course, such a tablet produces stereo sound. He also has a microphone and front camera, through which you can organize video. But do not count on a high-quality picture, the resolution of the front-end does not exceed 1 Mp. The rear camera shows itself much better - its resolution is 8 megapixels.And here there is a headset jack that can be useful at any time.

This tablet can be safely called a game. The fact is that inside it there is a discrete video card NVIDIA Quadro M620, at the disposal of which there are 2 GB of GDDR5 video memory. Of course, the maximum graphics settings to activate in the top games will not succeed. But the very fact of launching those on the “tablet” is already a miracle!

On the case of the device you can find a pair of USB Type-C connectors that can boast a high speed data reception and transmission. Not forgotten, and mini-HDMI, which allows to display a picture on an external monitor or TV. To interact with the router is a built-in Wi-Fi module 802.11ac. There is also Bluetooth 4.2, which helps in connecting wireless accessories. Not forgotten and a slot for a memory card. And not a microSD, but a full-sized SD!

Perhaps this is a great option for those who want to replace their tablet with a tablet. But such a replacement will be expensive - the cost of this model exceeds 170 thousand rubles. And this is on condition that you can still find it on the territory of Russia.

Acer Switch 7 i7 16Gb 512Gb

Rating: 4.9

I got into our rating and a tablet computer from Acer. This device also comes with a keyboard. And it also has a small stand, thanks to which the product can be used to watch movies even without connecting the above-mentioned accessory. As you might have guessed, the Windows 10 operating system is installed here, providing the user with a full set of office programs. However, the components available here are enough to run more heavy applications.

The diagonal of the IPS display used here is 13.5 inches. The resolution of 2256x1504 dots allows you to enjoy high details and not see pixelation at all. The manufacturer decided that the buyer would definitely have enough of such a screen, so he did not embed an HDMI connector into his creation. Instead, he endowed it with high-speed USB sockets needed to connect peripherals and, say, an external data storage device. The manufacturer did not forget about the fingerprint scanner, which should protect personal information from prying eyes. And also in the kit with the tablet comes a stylus. You'd be surprised, but with the keyboard connected, using it is noticeably easier than using your finger.

The tablet has a stereo sound and two cameras. However, the quality of the latter is far from ideal, so the “tablet” is absolutely not suitable for photography. But you can communicate with colleagues in Skype, because the microphone is also present here. There is also the possibility of connecting a headset - this can be done both through a 3.5-millimeter audio jack, and via Bluetooth 4.0. And since we are talking about wireless modules, it is necessary to mention the support of high-speed standard Wi-Fi 802.11ac.

For data storage here are 512 GB of permanent memory. If this does not seem enough, you can use the microSD card. SIM card slot is not here. But there are 16 GB of RAM, which is absolutely enough for any program. As for the processor, it uses the quad-core Intel Core i7 8550U chipset, which is known for many laptops.

Perhaps the main drawback of the device is weight. Even without a keyboard, the tablet weighs 1150 g. However, with this screen it is quite acceptable. Also, not everyone will be satisfied with gaming opportunities. Yes, there is a discrete NVIDIA GeForce MX150 graphics card, but its capabilities are only enough to run games with very low graphics settings.The price confuses also - not everyone agrees to lay out more than 130 thousand rubles for a tablet computer.

Apple iPad Pro 12.9 (2017) 64Gb Wi-Fi + Cellular

Rating: 4.8

If the above discussion in our ranking was about very expensive products that run under Windows, then we will continue to talk about more affordable tablets, which also have a large screen. Perhaps the best buy now seems to be acquiring an iPad Pro. Its capabilities are more than enough to solve all everyday tasks. For iOS, a huge number of useful applications with a convenient interface have been created. They look great here! There is no question of any pixelation! And how could it be otherwise, if the 12.9-inch IPS-display received a resolution of 2732x2048 pixels? Here, not only the picture is sound, but also the sound - it is output with the help of four speakers. And it is because of the chic sound we recommend to purchase the 2017 version - a more recent version has a flat sound. And this is not to mention the fact that the tablet released a year later is much more expensive.

This device exists in several variations. Among themselves, they differ in the amount of memory, as well as the absence and presence of a slot for a SIM card. If you are going to use the tablet on the street from time to time, then look for a version with the “Cellular” postscript — it is this one that supports LTE networks. As for the built-in storage, then you can easily arrange 64 GB. But if you are going to store videos and a very large number of photos in the built-in memory, then this, of course, will not be enough.

The device has three color options. In one or another color is painted metal body. It has a very small thickness, due to which the manufacturer managed to reduce the weight of the gadget to 692 g. On the front side you can easily notice not only the display, but also the physical button, which at the same time acts as a fingerprint scanner. A gyroscope, a compass and a barometer were included in the tablet - in a word, there is no shortage of sensors. And still it is possible to fasten the QWERTY-keyboard to the device, being engaged in convenient typing of the text. But you need to buy it separately. However, this is in the style of Apple - this company loves to sell accessories for a lot of money.

Work device provides a six-core processor Apple A10X. Some time ago it was the most powerful chipset among those produced by ARM technology. He and four gigabytes of RAM easily manage to run multiple applications on one screen.

To access the Internet, it is not necessary to use a 4G connection. Here Wi-Fi 802.11ac support is implemented. If you use this standard, you can even watch 4K video online! You can not find fault with the cameras installed here. At the heart of "frontalki" laid 7-megapixel matrix, the possibilities of which is enough for high-quality video. Well, the rear camera has a sensor whose resolution has been increased to 12 megapixels. Moreover, this module is supplemented with optical stabilization!

It is unlikely that such a tablet is able to disappoint at least one of the ordinary users. Everything is beautiful here! Even the work time did not let us down - under the almost full load the gadget lasts about nine hours.

Microsoft Surface Pro 5 i5 4Gb 128Gb

Rating: 4.8

At one time, Microsoft began producing tablet computers that would show that the Windows operating system feels great on such a device. Usually, the gadgets of the Surface Pro lineup have balanced components, the capacity of which is quite enough for everyday usage scenarios, including in office conditions. Our rating includes the fifth model of the above-mentioned line. This device has got a screen with a diagonal of 12.3 inches and a resolution of 2736x1824 pixels. Such parameters will be enough for absolutely any user. But, of course, with built-in components it is rather difficult to process an image with such a high resolution. The dual-core Intel Core i5 7300U processor has to strain a lot so that the Windows 10 operating system runs without any complaints. And it feels that the power of this chipset is barely enough to run some serious applications. It is better to forget about games in general, because instead of a discrete video card, integrated graphics are used here. Also a serious limitation is the amount of internal memory, not exceeding 128 GB here. It should be noted that it was the savings on the built-in storage that allowed Microsoft to reduce the price tag to 65 thousand rubles. However, the company saved on RAM too - it is only 4 GB here.

On the case of the device you can find a slot for a microSD card. But there are no SIM-card slots - the manufacturer offers to go to the global web exclusively via Wi-Fi 802.11ac. Another among the wireless modules present here is Bluetooth 4.1, which is primarily needed to connect a wireless headset. You can also connect ordinary headphones - a 3.5 mm jack is used for them. Well, for connecting peripherals used port USB 3.0.

On the metal case of the tablet can not miss a couple of cameras. Strangely enough, it is quite difficult to find fault with the modules used here. "Frontalka" is ideal for organizing video communications, a five-megapixel matrix is ​​enough to ensure high-quality images. But the resolution of the main camera is increased to 8 megapixels - in the end, you can easily take a picture with the help of Microsoft Surface Pro 5 some document, in order to recognize the text in the corresponding program. Another “tablet” has stereo speakers, which also can not but rejoice. However, it would be strange if a tablet with a large screen had only one speaker.

Perhaps most of all, this model is pleased with the battery life. In some modes of operation you can achieve 13 hours! However, of course, in most cases, the operating time will still be less - it all depends on how much you begin to load the processor.

Unfortunately, Microsoft does not want to engage in the official sale of its “hardware” in Russia (the only exceptions are its gaming consoles). In this regard, if you are ready to purchase this tablet, you will have to forget about the warranty.

DELL Latitude 7212 i5-7300U 8Gb 256Gb LTE

Rating: 4.7

Another tablet computer in our ranking, which is quite difficult to acquire. The fact is that its production has long been discontinued. A pity, because this is a rare instance, which has not only a large display, but also a protected case.Rubber pads allow you to drop the device on the stones - nothing will happen to it. Moreover, the gadget can withstand even short-term immersion under water! You can also use the device in frost conditions - the touch screen stably perceives the touch of hands dressed in gloves. Nothing will happen to the tablet in the desert either - the processor here is complemented by active cooling.

DELL has also opted for the Intel Core i5 7300U. But here the dual-core chipset shows itself from the best side. This is due to a lower screen resolution, amounting to 1920x1080 pixels. I am glad that the American manufacturer did not save on RAM - he built in 8 GB here. Due to these components using Windows 10 becomes quite comfortable.

To install applications and store files are 256 GB of permanent memory. Unfortunately, there is no memory card slot. It hurts. It turns out that at least somehow supplement the amount of built-in storage can only be using an external USB-drive. By the way, among the connectors here are traditional USB 3.0 and more miniature USB 3.1 Type-C.

If the above Microsoft device did not have a fingerprint scanner, then a product released by DELL did get it. If someone steals your tablet, then the attacker is unlikely to be able to use it for its intended purpose. Another difference of this model is a slot for a SIM-card. This allows you to go to the world wide web, even on the street. Of course, not forgotten by the manufacturer and the standard Wi-Fi 802.11ac. A unique feature of the “pill” is the NFC chip. Of course, no one will use such a large tablet computer to pay for purchases. But you can use the above-mentioned chip for faster synchronization with other devices (for example, with an action camera).

It remains to add that the gadget received two cameras. The main one has a resolution of 8 megapixels, which is enough for photographing a document or some other object. Well, for the organization of video calls the front camera is designed, the resolution of which is 5 Mp.

Moisture and rubber lining could not affect the weight of the device. The tablet was very heavy. You can also complain about the lack of a QWERTY-keyboard.

Apple iPad Pro 11 1Tb Wi-Fi + Cellular

Rating: 4.7

Of course, Apple got into our rating and the most recent tablet. It has not the largest display - its diagonal is exactly 11 inches. At the same time, this tablet computer was probably the first to receive a very thin frame. As a result, the device turned out to be quite compact - it is comparable in size to its predecessor, which has a larger screen at its disposal.

The resolution of the IPS panel installed here is 2388x1668 pixels. This is more than enough for the naked eye to not see pixelation. The picture here is accompanied by a sound that four speakers emit. However, the thickness of the "pill" has become very small, and therefore the deep low frequency speakers are not able to produce Although even without this, the fresh iPad Pro 11 sounds better than the rest of our rankings (except, as you understood, the predecessor).

Image processing deals with Apple A12X Bionic. At the moment, this eight-core chipset is considered the most powerful among those manufactured using ARM technology. There are no slowdowns even in those moments when the user keeps two applications open at once. By the way, you can control iOS and all programs not only with your finger, but also with a proprietary stylus.To recharge it, it is enough to attach an accessory to the end of the tablet computer - in this position it is held with the help of magnets. The only pity is that the stylus is not supplied in the kit. However, you will have to separately purchase a QWERTY-keyboard, which at the same time plays the role of a case. But the tablet itself is extremely expensive - the version we are considering is estimated at 138 thousand rubles.

Why does this option have such a cost? First, it has a SIM card slot, which allows you to access the Internet via LTE networks. Secondly, it includes 1 TB of built-in storage. None of this offers any of the competitors! Against this background, you completely forget that there is no slot for a memory card. There is enough space for videos, photos, documents, and music.

The composition of the tablet included a large number of wireless modules. Bluetooth 5.0 is used to connect the headset, and Wi-Fi 802.11ac is used for downloading files from the Internet. Unfortunately, you can connect wired headphones only through an adapter, since among the connectors here there is only USB Type-C. By the way, the presence of such a port is amazing. Earlier, Apple endowed their smartphones and tablets exclusively with a Lightning connector. Now connecting any peripherals will not cause any problems.

As befits such an expensive device, it received relatively good cameras. Of course, the 12-megapixel module will not give the perfect picture, which is capable of creating a top-end smartphone. But its capabilities will be enough for absolutely all buyers of the tablet. By the way, the module is supplemented with an optical stabilizer, and this is very atypical for a tablet. As for the "front camera", it includes a matrix with a resolution of 7 megapixels.

Fingerprint scanner is not here. But it is not needed, since the unlocking is implemented here by scanning the face. Another product can boast a minimum weight - 468 g makes the tablet the easiest in our ranking. At the same time inside it there was a place for a sufficiently capacious battery, which is enough for nine hours of active use of the device.

Huawei MediaPad M5 10.8 Pro 64Gb LTE

Rating: 4.6

You might think that our rating will do without Android devices, as they are becoming less and less interesting to the average consumer. But we still mention a few gadgets that operate under the control of the "green robot". Why not? After all, such tablets are the most inexpensive. For example, for the Huawei MediaPad M5 10.8 Pro in Russian stores they ask no more than 43 thousand rubles. For this money, the buyer will receive a product with a 10.8-inch display on the front panel. Its resolution has been increased to 2560x1600 pixels, which allows viewing photos with great pleasure. Store images and videos offered in the built-in memory, which here is installed 64 GB. If this does not seem enough, you can use the microSD card. Another tablet computer received 4 GB of RAM, which is enough for stable operation of Android 8.0 and all applications.

Eight-core HiSilicon Kirin 960 is used as a chipset here. A year ago, it was considered a top-end one. However, this processor and now shows itself from the best side.Some problems can only occur in advanced games. It is felt that the graphics accelerator Mali-G71 MP8 is rather hard to process images with such a high resolution.

The model we are considering has a SIM card slot, which allows you to access the Internet not only via Wi-Fi 802.11ac, but also through LTE networks. Another tablet has support for the standard Bluetooth 4.2. The easiest way to listen to music and communicate with other people is using a wireless headset. If you want to use wired headphones, you will need to get an adapter for USB Type-C - only this connector is present on the case.

For photo and video, a camera with a resolution of 13 megapixels is intended here. At the time of writing the rating, this is the maximum that a tablet running on Android can have. More and is not required, because to shoot such a large device on an ongoing basis is trivially inconvenient. Well, if we talk about video communications, then an 8-megapixel front camera is designed to provide it, which is also very good.

The weight of this model is 498 g. And this is in the presence of a metal case! By the way, the manufacturer has not forgotten about the fingerprint scanner. Although it must be admitted that not all owners of such a tablet use this sensor - it is often not needed, since the device is not taken out of the house.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.5 SM-T590 32Gb

Rating: 4.5

One of the most affordable tablets in our ranking. For a product with a 10.5-inch display, they are asked about 21 thousand rubles in Russian retail. Of course, for the money you get is not a top device. Yes, the resolution of its screen is quite decent 1920x1200 pixels. But the processor here is far from being used. However, the capabilities of the eight-core chipset are quite enough to run any applications and many games. Also, the manufacturer has saved on RAM - it is installed here, only 3 GB. But the most disappointing is 32 GB of internal storage. Be sure, gradually you will realize that you need to install a memory card.

The operating system here is Android 8.1. For access to the Internet, a Wi-Fi module that supports the standard 802.11ac is intended. Another among the wireless modules includes Bluetooth 4.2. However, it is not necessary to use it for connecting headphones - the South Korean manufacturer did not refuse the traditional 3.5 mm audio jack. Also on the case of the device you can find the USB Type-C port - it is used to connect a network adapter and synchronize with a computer.

This tablet belongs to the budget segment. In this regard, you should not expect from him impressive photo opportunities. The main camera includes a modest matrix with a resolution of 8 megapixels. The front camera is even more simplified. But the 5-megapixel resolution is quite enough to talk on Skype or organize broadcasting in Badoo.

The weight of this model reaches an impressive 529 g. To hold such a tablet in your hand for a long time will not work - it is better to get hold of a cover-stand. Such a large weight is partly due to the capacious battery. If you are in search of a “pill” that can function for a long time, this is the best choice.

Lenovo Tab 4 TB-X704L 16Gb

Rating: 4.4

Definitely the most affordable tablet with a large screen. However, with big? It uses a 10.1-inch IPS-panel, which now does not seem anything gigantic. The display resolution is 1920x1200 pixels. That's not bad. But the very wide frames are confusing - they make the product more like a photo frame than a modern tablet.

This model was not produced yesterday. In this regard, it operates under the control of Android 7.0, and the update is definitely not worth it. However, this version of the “green robot” can hardly be called outdated. As for the hardware, the device is based on the Snapdragon 625, an eight-core processor running at 2 GHz. Even under the body of the device hiding 3 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory. Perhaps the volume of the latter can be considered the main drawback of the gadget. Yes, videos and music can be thrown onto a memory card, a slot for which, of course, has not been forgotten. But applications are often not transferred to an external drive - therefore you cannot install a large number of them.

To access the Internet, it is proposed to use either LTE-network or Wi-Fi (tablet supports high-speed standard 802.11ac). The device also includes a Bluetooth 4.2 module. Blue tooth capabilities are commonly used to connect a wireless headset. But there is also a 3.5-millimeter audio jack, in connection with which it is unlikely that something will prevent you from connecting ordinary headphones. However, you can listen to music through stereo speakers - they give out very high-quality sound.

To connect the charger, the USB Type-C port is used here. As you know, the wire is inserted into it exclusively from the first time. Even on the tablet, you can find the lenses of the built-in cameras. The main one has a resolution of 8 megapixels, whereas only a 5-megapixel sensor has been introduced into the front-end. Well, under the case hides the battery capacity of 7000 mAh. The manufacturer claims 13 hours of active use. In fact, the result will depend only on how exactly you will load the processor.

In short, the tablet Lenovo Tab 4 justifies its cost, it is not for nothing that got into our rating. And it's nice that even such an inexpensive device received a fingerprint sensor.

Conclusion

This is the list of the largest and part-of-one of the most expensive tablets. Be sure that any of the reviewed devices will suit you. When choosing a gadget, first think about the operating system. Windows will not work on the “tablet” as quickly as possible, but it will allow you to run applications that are familiar to your desktop computer or laptop. Well, Android and iOS should be familiar to you - they are almost the same as their counterparts installed on smartphones.
