Top 10 10 inch tablets
Although the tablet market continues to shrink from year to year, the fate of 10-inch models is not as sad as their younger or older "relatives." Nevertheless, the devastating effects of the expansion of smartphones are present in this category. If everything is relatively normal with the devices of the premium and older price segment, in the price category of 10-20000 rubles the choice is rather poor. As for low-cost 10-inch tablets, the “brands” rule here, the products of which differ mainly by nameplates. Actually, therefore, they are practically not presented in our review.

Top 10-inch premium tablets
45 990 (for LTE-model with 64 Gb memory)
The current junior representative of professional Apple tablets, like no other, deserves first place in the ranking of the best 10-inch tablets. The chic display with DCI-P3 color gamut, the widest range of brightness and an impressive array of useful modes. Crazy performance of the used hardware platform (very economical, besides). Really high-quality acoustic path, surprising high volume and decent bass. The most decent camera part, migrated here from the iPhone 7 almost unchanged. This is only a short list of "buns" that the owner of the iPad Pro 10.5 will be able to evaluate. We have not yet mentioned the ability to connect the docking station (external keyboard), support for the Apple Pencil stylus and many other advantages of this iPad. Yes, it's expensive, but there is simply no better market offer. Main advantages:

Given the ability to connect the keyboard, the iPad looks like a real replacement for an office ultrabook. |
39 499 (for LTE-model with 32 Gb memory)
If the "apple" PRO-tablet is quite clearly focused on professional use, then its direct competitor from Samsung in this sense is not so straightforward. For example, the presence of a special child mode in it looks like a redundant "chip", especially considering the price of this 10-inch tablet. Of the advantages of the model, it is worth mentioning the simplicity of memory expansion, a complete stylus and moisture protection. There are no complaints about AMOLED-display, except for the thickness of the side frames. As for a top-notch tablet, they seem too big to us. At the presentation of the model, the company's employees placed special emphasis on the acoustic path, developed jointly with AKG. In principle, the sound of the Tab S3 tablet is really good, although not really a bass player. Main advantages:

I do not think that modern smartphones can replace tablets. Of course, there is a computer, but with it you cannot lie on the sofa or take it on the road. |
Top 10-inch mid-range tablets
19 990 (for LTE-model with 32 Gb memory)
Another nearly perfect 10 inch tablet. Of course, in its price category. It is not intended for hardcore gaming applications, but you can drive to the same “tanchiki” at medium graphics settings. And five hours on one charge. But as a mobile multimedia device, this MediaPad is much more interesting. First, the chic sound of the four speakers from Harman / Kardon, which are arranged in pairs on opposite long edges. Those. with a typical album hold, the palms do not overlap them in principle. Secondly, it is this orientation that is “standard”, as clearly indicated by the placement of the fingerprint scanner. For perfectionists, this will be a weighty “plus”. Finally, a very solid communication capabilities. Dual SIM cards, a full-fledged “telephone” part, dual-band Wi-Fi, support for all possible 4G frequencies - this is how it looks. Main advantages:

The tablet is smart, the video is beyond praise, the sound too. I do not play toys - I can not say anything. For surfing, cinema and music - great. As a navigator - also great. Successfully endured a trip abroad, use in aircraft and in the mountains. |
20 990 (for LTE-model with 64 Gb memory)
Sadly, the average price range for 10-inch tablets does not differ by a large number of offers in general and models worthy of your attention in particular. Nevertheless, there is another bidder for a purchase here, and it is interesting with a tempting combination of the most popular single-chip system Snapdragon 625 with four gigabytes of “operatives” and a good display with Full HD resolution. All of the above allows Tab 4 10 Plus to be used equally effectively in a variety of scenarios. The tablet is quite productive for games with average graphics quality settings, there is enough memory for simultaneous opening of a relatively large number of tabs in the browser, aspect ratio and thoughtful speaker layout make it comfortable for watching videos. Such a wagon for adequate money. Main advantages:

In any usage scenario, including with a couple of hours in toys (such as GTA SA and RealRacing at maximum speeds), with an Internet through LTE, I have never managed to land a subject in less than 12+ hours of the screen. |
30 939 (per model with 128 Gb memory)
The recommended model is best seen as a budget tablet in the understanding of Apple. A kind of iPad SE. And what, the processors then they have the same with this smartphone, A9. The corps, again, remained virtually unchanged (compared to its predecessors). Even the front cameras of this pair are comparable and not too good. However, unlike the corresponding iPhone, the last iPad can boast of a solid capacity battery and a long battery life.As for the hardware platform, 125 thousand standard units of AnTuTu are still enough for any applications. Well, almost for any. Another thing is that it uses a 2-core chip and with multitasking it is tight. By the way, the main camera of the device with megapixels is also not amazing, but when shooting a video, it gives a high-quality and clear picture. Main advantages:

Nice handy 10 inch tablet. If the whole day to watch only movies, enough until the evening. If the tablet is used a little (surf in the internet, social network, read a book a couple of hours), in this mode it will easily last 3 days. |
16 600 (for LTE-model with 32 Gb memory)
The tablet is built on a fairly smart hardware platform, made on an energy-efficient 14-nanometer process technology. The image in the device is displayed on a good PLS-screen with high maximum brightness and almost perfect color reproduction. The only thing the latter lacks is the ability to change profiles. For high autonomy GalaxyTab A 10.1 meets the battery of solid capacity. It is a pity that the developers of the model decided to save on fast charging. Memory is the minimum for comfortable work, which is why the overall rating of the tablet in the rating is not as high as it could be. By the way, we strongly recommend to look for the version of the device released for the Asian or American markets with 32 GB "on board". Overall, an excellent affordable 10-inch multi-purpose tablet with a good battery. Main advantages:

The battery is the main advantage of this tablet. Keeps sooo long, if you rarely use, then the week will work easily. Iron is balanced, not the flagship, but as for the middle peasants - all good. |
28 613 (for LTE-model with 32 Gb memory)
The most "advanced" YOGA with a stand of all currently produced. It features a clear and bright screen, a powerful acoustic path and a fairly productive hardware platform. Of course, the ergonomics of such a tablet, as they say, are an amateur, but in its cylindrical thickening not only 4 speakers fit well, but also a capacious rechargeable battery. According to real owners, a single charge of this 10-inch tablet lasts until the evening (in the mode of continuous use of applications with low and medium power consumption). Unfortunately, the “native” software YOGA Tab 3 Plus is far from ideal, and there is no particular progress in fixing its features on the part of Lenovo. In other words, we recommend this model to potential buyers who are not afraid of the terms “firmware”, “recovery” and the like. However, many users do not even notice the specific flaws of the tablet. Main advantages:

The best 10-inch tablet, in my opinion.The beast is autonomous, stably plows the whole day for 10-12 hours with LTE or WI-FI enabled. But for demanding Android games will not work. |
28 450 (32 GB)
The new generation of the Galaxy Tab S line in many ways has become much closer to the Air 2, and in some respects it is superior to the I-Pad. This tablet is a little thinner than the device from Apple, and on the subject of “what is cooler” —the Retina display or Super AMOLED — thousands of opinions have already been expressed and the same number of copies broken in holivars in various forums. Tab S2 has got support for 64-bit applications and is more focused on working with documents, aided by a 4: 3 aspect ratio. The new LTE modem now supports six bands and provides a higher rate of exchange, and a fingerprint scanner is built into the HOME button, thanks to which the tablet easily recognizes the host. The small thickness of the tablet did not allow the manufacturer to install an especially capacious battery in it, but due to the effective filling, the battery life was almost unchanged - at medium brightness the streaming view can be watched up to 10 hours.

Lightweight, comfortably lying in the hands of a 10-inch tablet, with a beautiful bright screen, absolutely not warming in the process. Smart, everything is loaded at a run - the best option for work. |
Best cheap 10 inch tablets
12 490 (for LTE-model with 16 Gb memory)
Only one Plus in the title, but such a big difference in performance. The youngest representative of the Tab 4 10 line is built on the basis of a budget, although not bad in essence, Snapdragon 425 chip, which has at its disposal a minimally comfortable amount of memory. There is no scanner of prints here (not a very big loss), the display is a class easier, and of course, the camera is ticked. And the back back of the model TB-X304L is not glass and it is more advantage than a disadvantage. From the good "legacy" of the tablet, it is worth mentioning also his ability to work on all relevant LTE-ranges and dynamics on the upper broad edge. The volume is sufficient - the stereo speakers clearly separate the sound. In general, a good inexpensive 10-inch tablet, a good working “horse” for convenient consumption of multimedia content, surfing and social networking. Main advantages:

4G catches well and Wi-Fi holds better than many Lenovo devices, and I had three of them at different times. The battery pleases - a full charge keeps 8 hours with active use of the Internet, MX-player, games and music. Even remains 15 percent. |
20 990
The high-quality audio section of this model is hinted at by the corresponding inscription on the back cover, stylishly decorated perforation for a pair of stereo speakers in the same place and the presence of a special Dolby Atmos application for fine-tuning the sound. Unfortunately, the real situation of music lovers will disappoint. With respect to all the other features, the 10-inch TAB 2 A10-70L tablet has a full order: a very decent Full HD display, a good gaming performance of the hardware platform, and a solid battery life. Even the cameras of the tablet are capable of making quite decent pictures in conditions of good lighting, and the resolution of the frontal one completely falls outside the scope of the budget category. The device works on all current ranges of 4G networks, but is notable for low sensitivity of the Wi-Fi module. Main advantages:

The best 10-inch tablet for the average price. The problem of insufficient loudspeaker volume is simply solved using the engineering menu. |
Which 10-inch tablet is better to buy?
The choice of tablet depends on your preferences and use of this device. For example, if you often travel on business trips, then you just need the mobile Internet. And if you often access the Internet at home (housewives, work from home), then the mandatory requirement is the availability of Wi-Fi. An important role is played by design. The main thing is that you feel comfortable in holding your gadget, which will perform all the duties assigned to it.
