Another new product from Teclast is a tablet with a 10.1-inch display produced by Sharp, which has received a 2.5K resolution. The device runs on Android 7.0 and comes in a metal case.
It is equipped with a fingerprint scanner, a powerful 6-core processor (2.1 GHz), 13 MP and 8 MP cameras, as well as a capacious battery and an HDMI port. This review covers almost all the key features of the Teclast Master T10, the capabilities of the tablet, its advantages and disadvantages.
Appearance, arrangement of elements on the body
The back panel and side ribs of the case are covered with a single sheet of light aluminum alloy. The case weight is 550 grams, thickness is only 7.5 mm. The surface of the metal plate is not slippery, due to which the tablet lies securely in your hands. The glass on the front panel is covered with a high-quality oleophobic layer, which effectively resists the appearance of fingerprints and greasy stains on the glass. Also, the oleophobic coating makes it easy for your finger to slide across the touchpad, which has a positive effect on the ease of control of the device.
On the top edge on the right side there is a power button and a volume rocker. On the left side is a micro-HDMI port, necessary for broadcasting images to an external display. Nearby you can find a MicroUSB connector with support for the OTG protocol, which is used for charging, synchronizing with a PC and connecting external USB devices. There is a corresponding slot for installing TF cards, which is located on the side edge on the left.
Speakers, sound quality
Teclast Master T10 is equipped with two multimedia speakers, the holes of which are located on the side faces of the case. Thanks to the audio amplifier on the AW8376 chip, loud and clear sound is provided. There is also a 3.5 mm jack for connecting headphones, which is located on the top left side edge. Using HiFi-level headphones, you can count on loud, high-quality and clear sound of musical compositions.
Fingerprint scanner
To ensure the protection of user data, the tablet is equipped with a biometric multifunctional Touch ID sensor, which is located on the rear panel on the right. The manufacturer has chosen a rather convenient location for the fingerprint scanner: when the user holds the device in landscape orientation, the index or middle finger of the left hand rests directly on the Touch surface ID.
Display
Among the main features of the Teclast Master T10, a special place is occupied by a high-quality 10.1-inch OGS display manufactured by Sharp, with a resolution of 2.5K (2560 x 1600). Thanks to the high pixel density, the user sees clear fonts in the interface, browser and books, as well as detailed, realistic images when viewing photos and videos.
OGS technology implies the absence of an air gap between the screen and the touchscreen. This technology improves the responsiveness and accuracy of the touch panel, ensuring the transfer of more contrast images and excellent visibility of the screen contents not only indoors, but also outdoors, in clear sunny day.
The screen is distinguished by rich color reproduction, maximum viewing angles and a high reserve of maximum brightness. To ensure optimal brightness, depending on lighting conditions, an intelligent backlight control system using a light sensor is provided. In addition, the auto-adjustment system prevents excessive battery consumption.
In general, the display has almost all the properties to ensure comfortable use of the tablet. It is worth noting the support for Eye Care Mode technology: its activation reduces the intensity of the blue light of the screen, which causes eye fatigue during prolonged interaction with the display.
Reading Mode is also supported - a special mode for convenient reading, turning the tablet into an almost complete replacement for an electronic “reader”.
Performance, memory
Teclast Master T10 uses a 64-bit MediaTek MT8176 SoC, whose dual-cluster architecture provides for the allocation of processor resources to maintain a balance between performance and energy consumption. When performing resource-intensive tasks, 2 high-performance Cortex-A72 cores (with a frequency of up to 2.1 GHz) are connected, while for light loads 4 Cortex-A53 cores (1.7 GHz) are used. The PowerVR GX6250 video accelerator is responsible for graphics processing, with support for highly efficient encoding (H.264, H.265).
The capabilities of this platform are more than enough not only for browsing web pages and working with applications, but also for running resource-intensive 3D games, as well as playing video content in 4K permission. The device configuration is complemented by a dual-channel RAM interface (4 GB), which ensures adequate system speed and excellent multitasking performance.
The internal storage capacity is 64 GB. There will be enough free space to install games and a set of all the necessary applications, plus there will still be space for storing photos, videos and other user data. If you need to expand the storage capabilities, this can be done using a MicroSD memory card. In addition, thanks to OTG support, the user can view any multimedia files from external USB drives (flash drives, HDD/SSD).
operating system
The Teclast Master T10 uses Android 7.0 Nougat as an OS, with split-screen support for more convenient work with multiple applications. The manufacturer has modified the desktop interface and introduced some useful utilities into the system. For example, a tool for setting restrictions on access to photos and certain applications, a startup manager, using which you can prevent certain programs from loading when you turn on the tablet, advanced power management mode and etc.
Battery, autonomy
Teclast Master T10 is powered by a built-in 8100 mAh battery. Battery life will depend on device usage scenarios. In order to get a rough idea of autonomy, continuous video playback was started on the tablet. In this mode, the battery lasted for 8 hours. A powerful power adapter and support for Pump Express 2.0 fast charging technology allow you to quickly replenish the charge level in such a capacious battery.
Wireless interfaces
Due to the lack of a 3G/4G LTE module, you have to rely on a Wi-Fi connection to access the Internet. The SoC configuration includes the MT6630 chip, which provides support for such wireless interfaces such as Bluetooth 4.0 and high-speed Wi-Fi 802.11ac, capable of operating in frequency bands 2.4 and 5 GHz. The same chip is responsible for the operation of navigation systems (GPS, GLONASS and Beidou).
Cameras
As a rule, tablets lag significantly behind smartphones in terms of shooting quality. However, the capabilities of the main 8-megapixel camera, with autofocus and F/2.0 aperture, fully meet the minimum requirements of most ordinary users. If necessary, you can use it to take a photo of a document, a schedule, create a photo note, or scan a QR code.
For video chats and taking selfies, you can use the 13 MP front camera, which is equipped with a timer function and Beauty mode. To conduct a video conference, it is not necessary to connect a headset, since the tablet is initially equipped with a high-quality microphone, the hole of which can be found on the bottom edge of the case.
