Although it is true that tablets have been losing prominence when compared to smartphones or other hybrid devices such as convertibles, the truth is that they still have a very interesting market share. And although some manufacturers have given up on continuing to manufacture them, other brands have appeared that have been able to adapt to the needs of users, such as the Chinese Teclast , which offers models with extraordinary performance such as the Teclast M18 , which dazzles locals and strangers with a 2K panel. In addition, the battery that it integrates is 8,000 mAh, which will probably “last” between 7 and 9 hours of use.

Design of the Teclast M18: Teclast M18, a tablet that bets on aluminum and a 2K screen

But let’s go in parts. To begin with, it should be noted that this device uses a chassis that is 9.3 millimeters thick and weighs around 531 grams . The back is constructed from an aluminum alloy and is finished in an elegant gray color. In it you will find the main camera, as well as the name of the brand and the model. In general we can say that the design is solid and careful , and for the size of the screen it has it can be transported comfortably.

Very good image quality

Perhaps we expected narrower bezels on this Teclast M18 , but this is more than compensated for by a generous 10.8-inch screen, with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels (2K). Thanks to IPS (In-Plane Switching) technology you will enjoy incredible viewing quality, from practically any angle from which you look at the screen. In addition to a notable improvement in the representation of colors.

Record 4K Videos

This Teclast tablet has a rear camera (angled to the right) with a 13 megapixel sensor, ready to record videos with 4K quality . While on the front, in a central position, a 5 MP lens has been located to attend video calls and take snapshots quickly and easily.

Tri-cluster CPU with 10 cores

As for the “engine” of this Teclast M18 , note that it carries in its “guts” a MediaTek Helio X27 (MT6797X) . This tri-cluster CPU with 10 64-bit cores , provides up to 3 groups of processors, properly prepared so that they can handle different types of workloads more efficiently. This chip provides a clock frequency with a maximum speed of 2.6GHz in the ARM Cortex-A72 group.

GPU, RAM, ROM and OS

The accompanying graphics processor is an ARM Mali-T880 MP4 with up to 780 MHz , which will achieve very good performance in games with high resolution graphics. This version has 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage , which we can expand with a microSD card up to 256 GB of maximum capacity . The version (somewhat outdated) of the operating system that it has installed is Android 8.0 Oreo , which is exempt from some of the most significant functions of the later editions (Pie and Android 10).

Speakers and docking connector

If we look at the bottom of this Teclast M18 , we will see how it has a pair of integrated speakers , which allow you to reproduce sound from the device itself. There is a detail that we cannot ignore. And it is that the speakers work with the Momentum sound system , which delivers a more dynamic and immersive stereo audio. A docking port has also been added, which will give you the ability to connect this tablet to a compatible keyboard.

Connectivity of this Teclast tablet

On the left side it has in this order, with a 3.5 mm jack to plug in headphones, the power button (which also serves to activate the sleep mode), another button to raise and lower the volume, a USB Type-C input and the memory card reader supports only the microSD format.

4G, Wifi and various navigation systems

In addition, this Teclast tablet has support for 4G networks (with Dual SIM) and wireless technologies such as WiFi Dual Band and Bluetooth 4.2 . On the other hand, it comes equipped with up to four navigation systems: GPS (United States), BDS (China), GLONASS (Russia) and Galileo (European Union) . It also opts for an A-GPS assistant , so that you can take advantage of this positioning system, and achieve a much faster location.

The catalog of this Asian firm contains many other models that you may find appealing, such as the Teclast M40 . This 10.1 inch FHD tablet is powered by 8-core UNISOC Tiger T618 CPU, which adopts artificial intelligence algorithms.

It should be noted that this tablet is equipped with up to four navigation systems: GPS, BDS, GLONASS and Galileo.
