Honor Pad X8a Performance and Software

Performance and Software

Running on Android 14 with MagicOS 8, the Honor Pad X8a is powered by the Qualcomm SM6225 Snapdragon 680 4G chipset. This 6 nm architecture hosts an octa-core CPU, split evenly between 2.4 GHz Kryo 265 Gold and 1.9 GHz Kryo 265 Silver cores. Paired with an Adreno 610 GPU, this setup delivers competent performance for everyday tasks such as browsing, video streaming, and basic gaming. However, it's not geared towards intensive multitasking or cutting-edge gaming. The tablet offers internal storage variants of 64GB or 128GB, each with 4GB RAM, but lacks a card slot for expandable storage, which could necessitate careful management of the available space.
