A powerhouse of a tablet; equipped with 4GB RAM and processing power of some desktop computers and laptops. Work and play regardless of how demanding and power-consuming the app/programme is, wherever you are; weighing around 430g and with 8 hours battery life- this little guy is the perfect companion.

A little hefty in weight considering the small dimensions of 242 x 179 x 7mm, but it’s worth it for the tech features. Weighing in at 517g, almost 100g more than the iPad Air 2- this tablet is still very much portable, give or take 100g isn’t a big deal. Apple’s iPad remained unrivalled until the launch of the Google Pixel C with its premium feel and power and top of the range screen. Screen quality sets this tablet apart, with efficient power distribution; this tablet still manages to be an average of 25% brighter than most other leading tablets on the market.

Amazon are breaking the confinements of the dull greys and black by providing us with a choice of bold colours; marine blue, canary yellow and punch red (and black for those who like/need a sophisticated and professional aesthetic). It surprisingly covers 79.4% of the sRGB gamut, it’s nothing compared to the iPad but it’s a lot considering how small this little guy is.

The most notable and commended feature about this tablet is its immense attention to detail. The panel covers 113% of the SRGB gamut, making it more colourful than the iPad Air, MediaPad 3 and G Pad F by a landslide.
