The Pad X9 ELN-W09, also known as the Eileen X9, arrived on my desk promising a compelling combination of a large display, substantial battery life, and a relatively powerful processor for its price point. This Middle East version has some specific characteristics I’ll be exploring in detail, from its performance under everyday use to the finer points of its build quality. Over the past few weeks, I’ve put this tablet through its paces, and I’m ready to share my honest and comprehensive assessment.

The Pad X9 boasts an impressive 11.5-inch 2K display with a 120Hz refresh rate, making scrolling and animations remarkably smooth. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 685 octa-core processor, paired with 4GB of RAM, handles most tasks with ease. While the 128GB of internal storage is not expandable, it should suffice for many users. The 7250mAh battery is a standout feature, easily lasting a full day, even with moderate to heavy use. The inclusion of a fingerprint scanner adds a layer of security, and the dust-resistant design adds peace of mind. The Type-C charging port is a modern touch.

However, the camera capabilities are somewhat underwhelming. The 5MP primary and secondary cameras are sufficient for basic tasks like video calls but fall short when compared to the cameras found on higher-end tablets.

In daily use, the Pad X9 performed admirably. Browsing the web, streaming videos, and even some light gaming were all handled smoothly. The 120Hz refresh rate is definitely noticeable and enhances the overall user experience. The battery life, as promised, was exceptional. I consistently got over a full day of use on a single charge. The fingerprint scanner worked consistently well, quickly unlocking the device.

However, there were occasional instances of minor lag when running more demanding applications. This isn’t a deal-breaker, but something to keep in mind for power users.

Pros:

• Excellent battery life
• Smooth 120Hz display
• Adequate performance for everyday tasks
• Large screen size
• Fingerprint scanner
• Dust resistant

Cons:

• Underwhelming camera quality
• Occasional minor lag with demanding apps
• Non-expandable storage
• No SIM card slot

Overall, the Pad X9 ELN-W09 offers a compelling value proposition. Its standout battery life, smooth display, and decent performance make it an excellent choice for users who prioritize these features. While the camera and occasional lag are minor drawbacks, they don’t significantly detract from the overall positive experience. If you’re looking for a reliable, large-screen tablet for everyday use in the Middle East, the Pad X9 is a strong contender.

I recommend the Pad X9 ELN-W09 for those seeking a budget-friendly tablet with long battery life and a smooth display, but not for users who prioritize high-quality camera performance or need expandable storage.
