Realme Pad vs Nokia T20: Specs Comparison

Michele Ingelido — Wed, 13 Oct 2021 22:39:21 +0000

Realme recently launched its first tablet: the Realme Pad. A few weeks after, even Nokia came up with its first tablet: the Nokia T20. Both the manufacturers decided to start with an affordable tablet instead of a flagship, in order to provide a device that can be suitable for everyone. While we are waiting for higher-end tablets from these two brands, it is time to compare their specifications in order to understand which one is the best affordable tablet you can buy at the moment. If you are looking for a great Android tablet with a minimum expense, go ahead with this comparison and find out the differences between these two devices.

Realme Pad vs Nokia T20

	Realme Pad	Nokia T20
DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT	246.1 x 155.9 x 6.9 mm, 440 grams	247.6 x 157.5 x 7.8 mm,465 g

CAMERA	Single 8 MP 8 MP front camera	Single 8 MP 5 MP front camera
BATTERY	7100 mAh, fast charging 18W	8200 mAh, fast charging 15W
ADDITIONAL FEATURES	Optional LTE	Optional LTE, splash resistant

Design

The Realme Pad is the tablet providing the best design. It is thinner and even lighter, with narrow bezels around the display and a single camera on the back. It has an aluminum frame and aluminum back guaranteeing a solid build quality. Despite it has the same display diagonal, the Realme Pad is slightly more compact than the Nokia T20 because it has a higher screen to body ratio. The main reason making the Realme Pad a better tablet in terms of design are its dimension, thickness, and weight, but for the rest, these devices do not differ too much. The Nokia T20 has a high screen to body ratio and an aluminum body as well. Further, it is splash resistant, unlike the Realme tablet.

Display

The displays of the Realme Pad and the Nokia T20 are very similar. They both feature a diagonal of 10.4 inches and the same IPS LCD technology, as well as the same Full HD+ resolution with 1200 x 2000 pixels. So you get the same level of detail and a similar (average) image quality. It looks like the Nokia T20 has higher brightness, but if we exclude that, the display experience should be the same. Both the tablets come with stereo speakers and a 3.5 mm audio jack to connect headphones. Unfortunately, there is no fingerprint reader on any of these tablets. There is also no keyboard support and no stylus support.

Specs & Software

The Realme Pad wins the hardware comparison thanks to a more powerful chipset. We are talking about the octa-core MediaTek Helio G80 built at 12 nm. Just like the Unisoc T610 found on the Nokia T20, the Helio G80 is composed of 2 Cortex A75 CPUs and six Cortex A55 CPUs, but the Cortex A75 is clocked at 2 GHz instead of 1.8 GHz on the Helio G80. The memory configurations are the same: either 3 or 4 GB of RAM and 32 or 64 GB of internal storage. The tablets run Android 11, but the Nokia T20 has a stock version of the operating system, while the Realme Pad is customized. Note that both the tablets come in an LTE variant supporting 4G connectivity and a SIM slot.

Camera

The rear cameras of the Realme Pad and the Nokia T20 are exactly the same: an 8 MP sensor which can not provide a great photo quality, it is just an entry-level camera and even on low-end phones you can actually find better sensors. The Realme Pad provides a better front camera with a resolution of 8 MP, which is an important detail if you want to use your new tablets for video calls and conferences. The Nokia T20 has an inferior 5 MP front snapper.

Battery

The battery of the Nokia T20 is bigger with a capacity of 8200 mAh, which is the reason why its battery life is superior to the Realme Pad. On the other hand, the Realme tablet provides the support of reverse charging which allows using it as a power bank to charge other devices through a USB cable.

Price

The Realme Pad launched in Asia with a starting price tag of €150/$174, while the Nokia T20 starts from about €200/$232 in the base variant with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of native storage. If we exclude the battery life, the Realme Pad is a superior tablet: it has a better chipset, a superior front camera, and reverse charging. But if you need the longest battery life, then Nokia T20 might be a better choice for you because the rest of the specifications are still at a similar level: the SoC is weaker, but the difference is marginal; further, the Nokia T20 offers a splash resistant body and a scratch resistant front glass which you do not get with the Realme Pad.

Nokia T20 tablet has a 2K display, Unisoc chip, 4G, and starts at £179.99

Habeeb Onawole — Wed, 06 Oct 2021 09:58:45 +0000

The last Nokia tablet was the Nokia N1 released in November 2014. After almost seven years and under new owners of the Nokia Mobile brand, a new model dubbed the Nokia T20 has arrived.

The Nokia T20 is the first Android tablet from the Finnish company, HMD Global Oy, which currently owns the license to make and sell Nokia-branded mobile devices. The new tablet has a familiar design language which we have seen on Nokia smartphones launched from the manufacturer. It also comes with all the software features associated with the brand.

Nokia T20 Design

With respect to its design, the Nokia T20 isn’t a cheaply made device. The back is covered in aluminum with a sandblasted finish and the device has an IP52 rating. Up in front is a large display surrounded by not-the-slimmest of bezels. The corners of the tablet are rounded which should make it more comfortable to hold for long. The spec sheet says it is 7.8mm thick and weighs 465 grams. At launch, the Nokia T20 will be available in a single colorway – Deep Ocean.

Nokia T20 Specifications

The display of the tablet measures 10.4-inches and it has a 2K (1200 x 2000) resolution and a 5:3 aspect ratio. Nokia says there is toughened glass protecting the display but doesn’t reveal the brand. The screen has a brightness boost feature, SGS low blue light certification, and a brightness level of 400 nits.

Powering the Nokia T20 is the Unisoc T610 processor – an octa-core chip with two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 1.8GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.8GHz too. There is 4GB of RAM and the 64GB of storage can be expanded by up to an additional 512GB via a MicroSD card slot.

A single 5MP camera sits in front and it is positioned at the top bezel in landscape mode. On the back is an 8MP camera along with an LED flash which may come in handy when you want to shoot or record in low-light.

The Nokia T20 has stereo speakers with a powerful amplifier, FM radio, and Nokia’s signature OZO Audio technology. There are two microphones too. There is no fingerprint scanner but you do get Face Unlock.

Under the metal back is an 8200mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. The manufacturer claims users should be able to get up to 10 hours of movies or 15 hours of web surfing on a single charge. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to charge at the maximum supported rating as the charger bundled with it maxes out at 10W. Charging is via USB-C and there is an audio jack too.

The Nokia T20 ships with Android 11 out of the box with Google Kids Space and Google Entertainment Space. Nokia says it will receive two years of OS upgrades which means it should get upgraded to Android 12 and Android 13. It will also receive 3 years of monthly security updates while the enterprise edition will get 4 years of security updates.

Nokia T20 Price and Availability

The Nokia T20 is priced at £199.99 f(~$271) or the 4G version which has a Nano SIM card slot while the WiFi version is priced at £179.99 (~$244). You can pre-order starting today but it won’t ship until October 11.

Habeeb Onawole — Sat, 02 Oct 2021 20:47:53 +0000

Microsoft will also announce Office 2021, the latest version of its suite of productivity apps for consumers on the same day. The new software suite will come with features such as a new UI that goes in line with Windows 11, dark mode, new excel functions and formulas, new recording features for Powerpoint, and real-time collaboration as is available on Microsoft 365.

Based on the caption, we can expect the tablet will run a stock version of Android out of the box. It should also receive software support for a duration similar to Nokia’s Android phones, probably two years of OS upgrades and three years of security updates.

Attached to the tweet is an image of the Nokia 3310 (2017) and the upcoming tablet. The photo doesn’t reveal much about the device save for a glimpse at the design. We can see the frame is flat and has rounded corners and the tablet has a dark gray/black finish. It’s also pretty slim.

The tablet is expected to launch as the Nokia T20 and will have a display that measures 10.36 inches, a Unisoc processor, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, and support for 10W charging.

Recent reports have revealed that Nokia is working on a new tablet called the Nokia T20. The tablet was previously spotted with model numbers TA-1392 and TA-1397 on retailer sites from UAE and the UK. These model numbers were spotted at the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) certification site in July. Now, the aforementioned models along with another variant TA-1394 have received approval from China Quality Certification (CQC) platform. The CQC certification is yet another hint that it may not take too long for the tablet to go official.

The CQC listing reveals that the alleged Nokia T20 will carry support for 10W fast charging. Reports have revealed that the tablet will be equipped with a Unisoc processor, which includes the Mali-G52 GPU. This indicates that the device will be powered by Unisoc T618 or Unisoc T700 chipset.

The Nokia T20 tablet is expected to arrive with a 10.36inch display and it will come preinstalled with Android 11 OS. The device may offer 4GB of RAM and 64GB of built-in storage.

The upcoming Nokia tablet is likely to arrive in Wi-Fi only and Wi-Fi + 4G variants. The former may cost around £190, whereas the latter could be priced at around £207. It may come only in Blue color.

In related news, a new Nokia phone with a TA-1399 model number has also received CQC certification. Its CQC listing reveals that it may also ship with an 18W charger. The identity of this device is under wraps. The Nokia G50 5G smartphone was spotted with full specs and images at TENAA certification earlier this month. Hence, it appears that that the Nokia T20 tablet, TA-1399 Nokia phone, and Nokia G50 5G may go official soon in China.

HMD Global announced three new phones last week – the Nokia XR20, the Nokia C30, and the Nokia 6310. A new leak has revealed that there’s a handful of more devices coming, and if all goes well, they all should launch before the end of the year.

The source of the leak is Evan Blass, the prolific leaker who goes by @evleaks on Twitter. Earlier today, he revealed a list of upcoming Nokia devices from HMD Global, some of which are familiar.

The list includes the Nokia T20 tablet that leaked last week. It also has the Nokia G50, a device that was spotted on a UK retailer’s website a few weeks ago. The tweet reveals the Nokia T20 is codenamed “Riddler” while the Nokia G50 is codenamed “Punisher”.

Upcoming devices from HMD Global:
– Nokia T20 "Riddler"
– Nokia G50 "Punisher"
– Nokia G300 "Aoki"
– Nokia X100 "Deadmau5"

Other devices mentioned by the leaker are the Nokia G300 codenamed “Aoki” and the Nokia X100 which is referred to internally as “Deadmau5”. Unfortunately, the specifications of these devices were not revealed but may surface in a future leak. Regardless, we want to believe the Nokia G300 and Nokia X100 may be upper mid-range devices.

Last month, an upcoming Nokia tablet was spotted at the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). The tablet was spotted with model numbers such as TA-1397 and TA-1392. NokiaMob.net has come across UAE and UK retailer listings of an unannounced tablet called the Nokia T20. While it is unclear whether the aforementioned model numbers belong to the T20 tablet, the retailer lists have revealed its key specifications.

The retailer listings have revealed that the Nokia T20 tablet will be sporting a 10.36-inch screen. The device will come equipped with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of built-in storage.

The listings also show that there are two variants of the T20. One of them appears to be a Wi-Fi-only variant, whereas the other one is a 4G model. The tablet is expected to arrive in blue color.

The Wi-Fi variant is listed with pricing of £185 ($257) with VAT and £154 (~$214) without VAT on the retailer site. On the other side, the 4G model is listed for £168 (~$233) with VAT and £185 (~$280).

Various smartphone brands are gearing up to launch tablets this year. Realme will be launching the Realme Pad tablet in the coming months. Other brands like OPPO, Vivo, and iQOO are also expected to launch their tablets this year. It now appears that HMD Global too will be launching a tablet in the near future.

HMD Global is expected to hold a launch event around October. The event is expected to see the arrival of the Nokia G50 and a new X-series phone. Probably, the company may use the same platform to announce the Nokia T20 tablet.
