Teclast has already appeared frequently in our news and with hands-on tests of the Teclast M40 and Teclast P20HD we could already get an impression of the manufacturer's quality. With the Teclast T40 Plus, a tablet is now offered that could be an alternative to other inexpensive devices thanks to LTE and a price of approximately 200 Euros (~$232).

Case - aluminum tablet with plastic part

Teclast manufactures the casing of the T40 Plus from an aluminum alloy and plastic, which makes the device look comparatively high-quality. On the back, the different materials stand out from each other with different colors, but the transitions are even. Overall, the build quality is good.

However, the camera sensor on the back of our test model was not centered under the lens, which had negative consequences for the picture quality. However, we cannot judge whether this defect occurs more often.

In the pictures provided by the manufacturer, the bezel around the display looks a bit narrower than it actually is. The tablet is also thicker than it appears in the pictures. However, the actual dimensions correspond to those of other devices in this price range and with only 455 grams (~16 oz), the Android tablet is comparatively light.

Software - Pure Android

The Teclast T40 Plus runs a pure Android-11 system. Accordingly, no third-party apps or programs from the manufacturer are installed.

The security updates were up to April 5, 2021 at the time of the test. It is not possible to say how regularly they will be released.

Communication and GNSS - On the move with LTE and WiFi 5

Teclast's tablet can establish mobile connections via GSM, 3G and LTE. The installed SoC supports LTE up to Cat.7 in the downstream and Cat. 4 in the upstream, which enables speeds of up to 300 MBit/s (download) and 50 MBit/s (upload). VoLTE can also be used, which means that the tablet is also suitable for making calls.

Bluetooth 5.0 and WiFi 5 can be used for wireless connections in close range. With our reference router Netgear Nighthawk AX12, we achieved speeds of 305 MBit/s during transmission and 327 MBit/s during data reception. Thus, the Teclast T40 Plus is on par with our test field.

The T40 Plus can determine its location outdoors to a very good value of up to two meters (~6.6 feet) with the "GPS Test" app.

Teclast T40 Plus: Affordable LTE tablet in review

On our obligatory bike tour, the Teclast tablet only shows inaccuracies in curves and also a clear outlier when going around the lake. It is nevertheless suitable for navigation tasks.

Cameras - sensor not quite centered

Teclast equips the T40 Plus with an 8 MP main camera and a 5 MP front-facing camera. The latter takes portrait pictures that show weak contrast and look too dark and blurry even in very good light. The main camera shows our test subject with pale colors and a moderate level of detail. The black scattering on the right side of the picture is caused by the camera sensor, which is not located centrally behind the lens in our test model. Our panorama shot also shows that the camera does not cope well with uneven lighting conditions. When zooming in, subjects look muddy and practically nothing is visible in the low-light image. Apart from the option to switch on an HDR mode, no other adjustments can be made to the image quality.

Video recordings show a similar quality as our test photos. The main camera supports 480p, 720p and 1080p resolutions, and the front camera 480p and 720p. There is no information about the fps, nor are there any manual settings.

Under controlled lighting conditions, the Teclast T40 Plus records the ColorChecker passport too brightly. The test chart also clearly shows contrast weaknesses in the corners, whereby the right side in the picture is again affected by the crooked camera lens.

Accessories and warranty - cover included

The T40 Plus comes with a USB power adapter with a matching USB-C cable, a SIM needle, and a protection cover that can also be folded over the display and serve as a stand.

Teclast grants a warranty period of 12 months.

Input devices & operation - Good touchscreen

Google's GBoard is available for text input on the T40 Plus. The touchscreen responds very well to touches and is also suitable for extensive swipe movements. Switching from portrait to landscape mode is also quick.

Display - Bright and flicker-free

The screen of the Teclast T40 Plus consists of a 10.4-inch IPS panel and offers a resolution of 2000 x 1200 pixels. A brightness sensor is not present.

The maximum adjustable brightness is on a high level with an average of 486 cd/m². The illumination of 92 percent is also very good. We measured a maximum of 477 cd/m² in the APL50 test and the lowest possible brightness level is quite high at 39.9 cd/m².

The brightness control does not rely on the use of PWM.

* ... smaller is better

ℹTo dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 52 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 22211 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

The settings menu of the T40 Plus allows you to adjust colors and contrast manually or have them regulated automatically. With the "Automatic contrast" setting and the "Warm" color profile, colors are displayed with an only slightly increased DeltaE-2000 deviation of 5.1.

ℹDisplay response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

The high display brightness makes the Teclast T40 Plus quite suitable for outdoor use. However, depending on the environment, annoying reflections and glare might occur.

The IPS panel of the T40 Plus is very viewing angle stable. Thus, content can be viewed even from flat angles without being distorted or displayed with distorted colors.

Performance - Simple Android tablet

The Teclast T40 Plus is equipped with a UNISOC Tiger T618 and 8 GB of RAM take care of the system operation. The T618 is an older SoC from 2019 and can smoothly render the system as well as simple everyday applications. For graphical content, the internal GPU ARM Mali-G52 MP2 is responsible.

In the benchmarks, the system performance of the T40 Plus is on par with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 in the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 LTE. In return, the graphics performance is slightly better in the Teclast tablet, but it cannot compete with, for example, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 11. Overall, the performance is appropriate for the price range.

The Teclast T40 Pro achieves a runtime of 12 hours and 38 minutes in our practical Wi-Fi test. Thus, it can make good use of its 6,600 mAh battery and achieves a similar value as competing devices with generally larger battery capacities.

The tablet is fully recharged after about three and a half hours with the included charger.

Verdict - Suitable for everyday use

The Teclast T40 Plus proves to be an inexpensive tablet for simple daily applications in our test. The build quality is basically good, but there can be flaws in individual devices, as the slipped camera sensor on the back of our test model shows. The headphone jack and the 128 GB internal storage as well as LTE round off the otherwise sparse equipment package.

Thanks to a good display, long battery life and low price, the Teclast T40 is a tablet suitable for everyday use.

However, the very good battery runtime and the bright display are also good for daily use. Since the latter is PWM-free and reproduces colors relatively well, it is also well suited for sensitive eyes. If the internal storage is not enough, you can also expand it via microSD card.

Among the inexpensive tablets, Teclast places the T40 Plus in line with the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 LTE and the Lenovo Yoga Tab 11. However, those who can spend a bit more money will quickly end up with the Apple iPad 10.2 as a strong alternative.

The Teclast T40 Plus is currently only available from Amazon (DE) but it can also be ordered via AliExpress, for example.
