Walmart’s Onn brand has added two new Android tablets for shoppers who want a capable device without spending iPad-level money. The latest lineup includes a compact 8.1-inch Core Tablet and a larger 13-inch Pro Tablet. Both tablets are built for everyday use, like video streaming, browsing, online classes, and light work.

What does the smaller Onn tablet offer?

The Onn 8.1-inch Core Tablet is the more portable option. It is designed for reading, streaming, browsing, video calls, and casual use at home or while traveling. Walmart is offering it in Silver, Pink, Navy, and Mocha, with an 8.1-inch IPS LCD display and a 1000 x 1524 resolution. The 3:2 aspect ratio gives the screen a taller layout, which is useful for reading articles, viewing documents, or scrolling through websites.

Walmart has also included a refresh rate of up to 90Hz, which should make swiping through apps and menus feel smoother than many basic tablets in this price range. Inside, it runs on a 2.4GHz octa-core processor paired with 6GB of RAM, and Android 16, giving it enough power for everyday multitasking, video apps, browser tabs, schoolwork, and casual games.

The tablet comes with 64GB of built-in eMMC storage, with the option to add more space through a microSD card. Walmart also claims up to 15 hours of battery life, although the listing does not specify the exact usage conditions behind that estimate. At around $138, it covers the basics expected from an affordable Android tablet, while adding a smoother display than many low-cost options.

Who is the 13-inch Pro Tablet for?

The larger Onn 13-inch Pro Tablet is meant for users who want more screen space for entertainment and daily use. Priced at $288, it features a 13-inch display with a 2400 x 1600 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, which should make scrolling, multitasking, reading documents, and light work feel more comfortable. Walmart has also added four speakers for fuller sound, plus an 8MP front camera for video calls and a 13MP rear camera for photos or document scans.

Inside, the tablet uses a MediaTek MT8775 processor, paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. That gives users plenty of room for apps, downloads, photos, offline videos, and work files. Like the smaller model, the 13-inch Pro also supports expandable storage via a microSD card. It runs Android 16 out of the box and comes bundled with a folio case and stylus, which makes the $288 package even more appealing. It can also be used as a secondary monitor for a PC or Mac, adding another useful productivity feature.

If you need a tablet for everyday use without spending too much, these new Onn models are worth a look. Both tablets are available online and at Walmart stores.

Asus Pad comes out as a brazen iPad wannabe, but looks like a solid OLED Android slate
Asus looked at the iPad and said “Yeah, we’ll have one too”
Asus Pad

ASUS has officially unveiled the new Asus Pad, and honestly, the inspiration is impossible to ignore. From the flat metal chassis and symmetrical bezels to the magnetic keyboard accessories and stylus support, the tablet looks heavily influenced by Apple’s iPad lineup. But underneath the familiar design language sits what could actually be one of the more compelling Android tablets launched this year.

The Asus Pad arrives at a time when Android tablet makers are aggressively trying to close the gap with Apple in premium productivity-focused hardware. While many Android tablets still struggle with app optimization and ecosystem polish, companies increasingly realize that buyers care just as much about display quality, battery life, and hardware design as they do about software exclusives.
