Is Honor Pad 9 worth buying in India?

Sudarshan Ravichandran — Fri, 26 Apr 2024 10:02:27 +0000

A month ago, the Honor Pad 9 (review) made its way to India. The tablet retails at ₹24,999 in the country.

At this price, it competes with the most value-for-money tablet on the market — Xiaomi Pad 6.

If you feel like Xiaomi’s offering is a bit more expensive, there’s a cheaper alternative in the form of Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite 2024. There’s also Lenovo Tab P12 which costs about the same.

These three competitors are offered by brands that have a better presence in India than Honor. So you can theoretically expect a better after-sales experience from these products.

So the question arises whether the Honor Pad 9 is worth buying in India. Let’s find out.

Honor Pad 9

Honor Pad 9 is one of the few large-screen tablets

There aren’t many tablets with a huge display on the market, especially in the budget range. The Honor Pad 9 is one of those rare specimens.

It sports a 12.1-inch LCD panel. This screen offers a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. The display not only supports 10-bit color depth but also up to a 120Hz refresh rate and 500 nits peak brightness level.

Lenovo Tab P12

There’s only one such large-screen tablet in this price segment. That product is Lenovo Tab P12 (review), which retails at ₹25,999.

Lenovo’s offering comes with an even larger 12.7-inch LCD screen with a higher resolution (2944 x 1840 pixels). But the refresh rate is limited to 60Hz and the peak brightness level is lower at 400 nits.

So if a large display is your priority, there’s no better option than Honor Pad 9 in its segment.

Honor Pad 9 ships with a useful accessory

Unlike most tablets, the Honor Pad 9 comes bundled with a first-party accessory. To be precise, it ships with a Bluetooth keyboard.

This official accessory converts the tablet into a productivity machine. It also acts as a protective case.

Though other tablets in the segment also have first-party accessories, they need to be purchased separately. This increases the overall price of the product.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite 2024

However, if you are more of a stylus person, you may want to consider aforementioned Lenovo Tab P12 or Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite 2024. The latter offers an overall better stylus experience.

The Samsung product is yet to be released in India but when it does, it will cost about the same as Honor Pad 9. The 2022 edition of Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is currently up for grabs at a cheaper price, however, we recommend you get the latest model.

Honor Pad 9 faces stiff competition

Anyhoo, the biggest competitor for Honor Pad 9 or any other tablet in this segment is the Xiaomi Pad 6. It continues to be the best value in the Android space even after a year.

Xiaomi Pad 6

The device is not only powered by a flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chip but also boots feature-rich HyperOS software. Thus, it will age better compared to other tablets in the segment.

It is costlier than the Honor Pad 9 at ₹25,999. Additionally, you will have to spend extra for the stylus and keyboard accessories.

But if you can afford the price difference, there’s no better Android tablet in this segment.

Rajesh — Mon, 04 Mar 2024 09:49:28 +0000
