First impressions matter, and the UGRIHACH A7 tablet delivers with its sleek black design and surprisingly lightweight build (only 0.49kg!). The 11" FHD touchscreen is vibrant right out of the box – I binge-watched Netflix in bed, and the anti-blue light feature saved my eyes from strain during a 3-hour session.

The real star? That octa-core processor paired with 16GB RAM. I had 12 Chrome tabs, Spotify, and a Zoom call running simultaneously while testing, and it didn’t stutter once. The 1TB expandable storage via microSD is a lifesaver for my movie collection and work files.

Battery life shocked me – the 6800mAh battery lasted through a cross-country flight (7 hours of ebooks and offline videos) with 20% to spare. The Type-C fast charging got me from 10% to 85% during a lunch break.

Minor gripe: The back gets warm during intensive gaming sessions. Nothing alarming, but I’d recommend a slim case (which also helps with the slightly slippery finish).

Final verdict? This tablet replaced both my aging iPad and budget Android device. For the price, the performance-to-portability ratio is unmatched – especially if you need Widevine L1 certification for HD streaming on the go.
