NOKIA T20 TABLET

-

THE NOKIA T20 is a relatively inexpensiv­e Android tablet that feels more premium than its price point might suggest. It’s slim, lightweigh­t, the build quality is great and the back cover has a matt finish, which, all in all, makes for one sleek-looking device.

The handsome 10.4-inch IPS LCD can be unlocked using facial recognitio­n. Stereo speakers are hidden on the edges of the tablet, and the sound is decent and clear, though perhaps not as loud as some of the other tablets we’ve tested. If you intend using it for video calls, you’ll appreciate the frontfacin­g 5 MP selfie camera. If you’re a gamer, you’ll find that the T20 runs smoothly, and isn’t prone to overheatin­g.

Perhaps the only slightly frustratin­g thing about it is the placement of the headphone jack. It sits on the bottom right of the device, where other cables plug in, so we found that its location can interfere with how you hold the tablet. It does have Bluetooth though, so you can choose to connect your audio that way.

The battery is powerful enough to give you seven- to eight hours of solid use, which really makes the Nokia T20 a great tablet option in the more budget-friendly side of the market. RRP R3 999 cellucity.co.za
