TCL launches another affordable Android tablet in the US

After introducing its cheap e-reader alternative, the NXTPAPER 11, to the United States, TCL is now launching another affordable tablet in the country, the TCL TAB 10 Gen 2.

The US market has been flooded with cheap Android tablets, especially those made by Amazon. However, TCL also has a pretty decent line of budget tablets, so if you’re looking for an alternative to Amazon’s Fire slates, the TCL TAB 10 Gen 2 is an interesting option.

Recently introduced in the US, TCL’s TAB 10 Gen 2 retails for $190, but the tablet is now on sale for 10% off at Amazon. If you’re considering one, we recommend waiting another day as the tablet will be part of TCL’s big Black Friday sale.

The TAB 10 Gen 2 is a tablet running Android 13 and featuring a large 10.4-inch Full HD+ screen enhanced by NXTVISION technology. Inside, the tablet packs a 2GHz octa-core MediaTek processor, paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage (up to 1TB via microSD card).

The tablet has an 8-megapixel rear camera and a secondary 5-megapixel front-facing selfie sensor. Other highlights of TCL’s affordable tablet include stereo speakers, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, and a USB Type-C port.

According to TCL, the large 6,000 mAh battery that powers the TAB 10 Gen 2 should provide up to 9 hours of streaming or 6 hours of online gaming. The battery should fully charge in about 4.5 hours, TCL claims.
