Along with the announcement of the Honor 80 GT, the company introduced its Pad V8 Pro tablet with beefy hardware under the hood. This is Honor’s top-of-the-line tablet, so it packs a decent punch.
Honor Pad V8 Pro is built around a large 12.1-inch IPS LCD panel with 2560 x 1600px resolution, 10-bit color depth, 100% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage, and 144Hz refresh rate According to Honor, this is the first tablet to feature a 144Hz refresh rate. Another interesting bit is the IMAX Enhanced certification which would allow users to stream content that complies with the same standard. This was previously prevalent in TVs, but it seems the feature has made its way into the tablet world as well.
For a full multimedia experience, the device also boasts a set of eight powerful speakers with support for DTS:X surround sound.
The fast display would also come in handy in gaming as the device is powered by a powerful Dimension 8100 SoC, 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. There are also 8GB/256GB and 12GB/256GB options.
As is usually the case with tablets, the camera setup isn’t particularly impressive, so we have a 13MP standard. Rear f/2.0 camera and 5 MP, f/2.2 front camera with fixed focus.
All this hardware is powered by a generous 10,050mAh battery with support for 35W fast wired charging. The V8 Pro comes with Android 12 and Magic UI 7.0 out of the box.
