I have Tab 18, and it's very good, but the Blacview customer support is non-existent, even for minor questions or issues. Security updates are not available for Blackview either.
Awesome video man! My only suggestion is that it would be nice to include front cam review even just for a little bit since tablets are usually used in conference meetings. 😅
There are matte finish screen protectors to cut down on the glare for outdoor use or under bright lights. I’m not sure how color accuracy is affected but I would think there are better ones that have minimal impact.
hi,can watch?or edit 2,7k 60fps or 4k 30fps on this tablet?or ran capcut smoothly?I want to buy some budget tablet in the future,for editing,the price is good for this.
I prefer tablets for travel & as an additional work tool for photography. The android eco system is far better developed in India & there are some bank etc softwares that work better on the android eco system. The hardware that the tablet is giving is impressive. I have the lenovo p12 which is 12.7 inches & a 3k screen. Price is also around 300$ & it uses a JBL quad audio system. I tend to use ANC yamaha headphones which give excellent immersive sound so in a train or plane one neither disturbs nor gets disturbs. Case with backlit magnetic keyboards go for around 40+ $ in the android eco system but lenovo offers their own at higher rates with better ergonomic design. The lenovo can play the sony 4k files which was one of the criteria for getting the tablet. To be able to see the high res visual content from the camera.
So far it works well & lenovo has better after support here. Within the android eco system Its cheaper than Samsung which has state of the art production in delhi. But in the 12 inch range the blackview has excellent price to hardware value. The main advantage of the lenovo is the screen & that it can output the4k footage. I too read a lot - have a collection of old sanskrit manuscripts & notice the difference on a larger high res tablet screen. Also it can be used as a remote screen for the sony cameras. Meanwhile wish you a beautiful festival & spring@@DustinAbbottTWI
I was just about to post a comment about the P12 also. I don't own it.... yet, but when I compared the price here in Canada ($450 with pen and keyboard) with what the Blackview would cost with pen and keyboard ($482), I not sure that the Blackview is a better choice.
@@Euphabone The blackview gives more ram & one can put a sim card. Screen is much better on the lenovo p12. I have had the tablet for about 6 months & it works well. I had a 10.4 inch HD tablet & I updated mainly for the screen and it does make a huge difference particularly for high res files. Also for reading.
@@GoneFishin247 ifixit and other 3rd parties carry spares for iPads going back to iPad 6. Same is true with Samsung where you can find decent 3rd party spares to repair your older tablets/devices. Atleast with major manufacturers there is a way to atleast get batteries replaced 3-4 years down the line unlike smaller OEMs who may not have that option.
The other issue with the IPad is the apps are closed source not open as is the software updates. With an Android tablet the Android OS is open source and you get newer apps and games all the time. Plus the other disadvantage with an iPad is you can’t add more storage capacity like you can on an Android tablet.
I bought Tab 18 .3 months ago..I am using till now but sometimes my Tab screen unresponsive and I had to force restart..Anybody having the same problem ? How to fix it without restarting..annoying fr
@@DustinAbbottTWI yupp..sometimes when im playing for exp mlbb, i couldn’t touch or move anything when the screen unresponsive suddenly…but they said i might turned on stylus pen mode..but that features doesnt have in setting..:)
@@DustinAbbottTWI Right, but you can only use one. I just wish there was a Android tablet as powerful as the iPad. I think only Samsung is serious about it
@@morvegil Depends what you mean by powerful. I am using the lenovo 12 (not pro version which has an oled screen) which I got new for 300$. About 1200$ less than an Ipad pro. Unless one has specific use for the m2 chip - a lot of the other hardware is equivalent. High end screens - audio - wireless - pen - storage - ram. The choice is huge on the android platform & the lesser known companies like the above tablet reviewed are giving an excellent price to performance. Also addons can be significantly cheaper.
Probably not. The biggest issue I have when considering the no-name brand tablet is the OS and security updates. It virtually doesn't exist. You are stuck with the software as is. You do get app updates but you just can't trust the Android version as the version gets older. It's fine for just gaming, but I would think twice if you use it for work or any financial related such as accessing your bank accounts.

Yes, I noticed that the last update I received for my Tab 18 was in 2023.

Thanks for the input.

That's true.
Good morning my brother hope you and your beautiful family have a wonderful Easter week. Good job
Thank you. Have a blessed Easter, too!
Very informative video thanks a lot!! One question: is it possible to use this tablet as a second screen to a windows laptop?
I believe the answer is yes, but I would confirm with Blackview first.
Where did you buy the blackview 2-in-1 bluetooth Magnetic Keyboard for Tab 18?
From the Blackview site.

I haven't tested those pieces of software, so I can't answer that. You might want to ask Blackview.

Where can i get the keyboard case from, do you have a link please?
Sure - shrsl.com/4k92p
Hopefully couple of years down the line spares for repairs will be available with this tablet as is the case Apple and Samsung devices.
That's fair.

Would u say this is a better deal then the ipad 10th gen since its only $350 now
As far as features, yes, but the iPad has its own advantages if you don’t mind going down the Apple rabbit hole
@@DustinAbbottTWI thanks

Hello sir, thinking to change from Samsung and get a new tablet. Can I transfer all my data to this tablet. Sorry I'm not so techi..😊
Yes, you should be able to do a clean transfer. Most of that process is automated now.
Does it come with a pen in the box?
Yes it does
Productivity? Lightroom CC, Lightroom Classic?
I ran Lightroom okay, and the stylus is useful for some edits.
can you actually make a phone call as if its a large mobile phone???
I didn't test that application, so I don't know.
@@DustinAbbottTWI thank you for reply
Hello, is it better than Doogee T20 Ultra?
I would say yes.
@@DustinAbbottTWI Really ?Yet they are twins !What are your arguments?
@@themysfit2643 No Harmon audio for the Doogee. In my experience the camera isn't as good either.
They say the screen is 2.4K....2000 x 1200 is not 2.4K

That sounds like a question to send to their tech support.

Ive been looking for a Android Tablet that beats Ipad. I prefer Android to Apple, but it seems Ipad is still king.
Yes and no. I love my iPad, but the cost is ridiculous. I could have three to four of these Black view Tabs for the price of my iPad setup.

please tell me anyone .. it is good for long time .. anyone buy any tablet from blackview and please share your experience

Liked your review very understandable may not appeal to the high Techies.
Glad you enjoyed it.
