Rating of tablets from which you can make calls

If someone talks on a tablet as if on a mobile phone, then they look at him strangely or, at least, with a smile. But this is not the only point. Tablets into which SIM cards can be inserted have access to 3G and 4G Internet. Yes, and you can talk using a headset. So the popularity of such models with a mobile phone function will not surprise anyone. In this review, we have collected the best models with positive user reviews. We are also ready to talk about both the pros and cons of these models.

TOP 10 tablets with calling capabilities for 2021

The tablet was conceived as the most compact computer that would allow all everyday activities to be carried out using a large touch screen. Watching movies and communicating on social networks, editing documents and games, launching applications for work, analyzing sports results and planning a family budget - all this will be provided by any model. But not every phone has a call function. So that you don’t have to look for a tablet-dialer, we have selected the 10 best models for the current year.

Which tablet with mobile phone function is better to buy?

The presented rating of tablets with a calling function does not include the most productive devices in its list, since the presence of a GSM module does not require high technical characteristics. To understand which device to choose, our editors recommend following these recommendations.

The screen diagonal must be suitable for the specific case. If you don’t plan to watch movies frequently on your device, you can choose 7-8-inch models, and if you need to watch them, you can choose from 10-inch models.
Technical characteristics must meet modern requirements. This is necessary to work effectively with modern applications.
High-quality assembly is a prerequisite for purchase. Tablets are used quite actively, so there is a risk that the flimsy case will not withstand constant shaking and travel.

The popular device Samsung Galaxy Tab A 9.7 SM-T555 is one of the best (or even the best) among similar models. The device can be used as a mobile phone. He makes the connection quickly and doesn’t lose it. At the same time, it has very definite advantages. First of all, this is a screen with bright, rich colors. Its resolution is small for such a diagonal, but pixels are not visible on the screen, the fonts do not hurt the eyes and no problems arise with it. In general, such a small resolution has a positive effect on performance and battery life: the tablet works quickly and for a long time, and does not drain the battery much. If you use the gadget for 2 hours a day, it will last for 4-5 days, which is cool.

The best tablets with a 10-inch display

Lenovo Tab 4 TB-X304L 32Gb

If you want to buy a good tablet that has powerful technical characteristics and supports 4G connectivity, Lenovo has something to please customers. The screen diagonal is 10 inches, with a resolution of 1280x800 pixels. Power indicators are in high positions - the processor runs on 4 cores at a frequency of 1.4 GHz and 2 gigabytes of RAM. The built-in memory is 32 GB. Part of it is occupied by the base system, and therefore it would be appropriate to expand the MicroSD resource by 128 GB.

The rear camera is 5 megapixels, while the front camera is 2 megapixels. But video communication is still comfortable, and you can take good photos. The tablet also lasts up to 12 hours when actively loaded with tasks, this is due to a battery with a capacity of 7000 mAh.

Advantages:

excellent autonomy indicators;
reasonable price;
large diagonal;
RAM volume and built-in memory expansion;
excellent stereo sound.

Flaws:

You won't be able to make calls from a tablet like you can from a phone.

Apple iPad Pro 10.5 64Gb Wi-Fi + Cellular

Apple is known throughout the world for its high-quality products, and the prices correspond exactly to this indicator. The presented tablet was no exception.

The screen is 10.5 inches. There are no more sizes in the rating. The picture quality corresponds to a resolution of 2224x1668 pixels. Better indicators are again difficult to find.

The power is also pleasantly pleasing - with 4 GB of RAM and a processor with 6 cores at 2360 MHz. The system “flies” and there is no analogue to this. The device is equipped with 1 cameras. Just imagine, the rear camera is 12 megapixels, and the front camera is 7 megapixels. The quality of the pictures is at the highest level. The device can also work for 10 hours without additional charging. The battery capacity copes with this task quite well.

Advantages:

high power and performance properties;
stylish design;
solid cameras, the rear one is equipped with optical stabilization;
display 10.5 inches diagonally;
Apple Pencil stylus can be used;
keyboard connection;
stereo sound support;
durable metal case;
The glass is equipped with a coating, which prevents it from being damaged by mechanical stress.

Flaws:

high cost of the tablet.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 SM-T819 LTE 32Gb

And the rating is completed by a tablet from Samsung. This is the owner of a good camera and a large screen, and you can even buy it within 30 thousand rubles.

Huawei MediaPad X2

In addition to the fact that the device supports 3G, 4G and allows you to communicate on the phone, it is also equipped with a cool HiSilicon Kirin 930 processor with 8 cores, and together with 3 GB of RAM, performance is guaranteed. The screen here is 7 inches diagonal, and thanks to this you get the impression that this is just a big phone. The “telephone” frames around the screen only confirm these guesses. The manufacturer Huawei tried to combine two devices in this gadget – a tablet and a phone, and it turned out quite successfully.

Advantages:

Tablet for calls, what is it?

The diagonals of smartphones increased and increased and grew... to tablets. Today, a class of devices has emerged that can be classified as both smartphones and tablets; they are called accordingly – phablets or lampshades. But in this article we will not talk about them, but about full-fledged tablets that are equipped with GSM radio modules designed for full-fledged voice communication. Similar gadgets appeared just a couple of years ago. It cannot be said that they instantly became popular, but they still managed to find their category of buyers.

Let us immediately clarify that we do not mean tablets equipped simply with slots for a SIM card of a cellular operator, but not with a communication module. In the first, you can use cellular networks to access the Internet, nothing more. We are interested in devices from which you can make a full-fledged call or send a regular SMS message.

Since tablets with voice modules have caused mixed reactions, let's try to figure out what their advantages and disadvantages are.

Pros and cons of tablet dialers

The positive aspects include the following:

the ability to replace two devices with one, saving space in your bag and money on purchase. Recently, tablets with two SIM cards have begun to appear - with them you replace three devices at once: two mobile and one for working with the Internet;
using mobile Internet on a tablet when Wi-Fi networks are not available.

There are not many disadvantages, but they are significant:

for many, it is very, very inconvenient to make calls from a tablet, especially if its diagonal is more than 8 inches (and there are also ten-inch models with this function!);
The presence of a radio module reduces the battery life of the tablet. That is, in front of you is no longer the same gadget that can work for 7-10 hours in active mode without recharging.

Now let's move on to specific examples.

ASUS Fonepad 7 (specifically model FE375CXG) is a dual-SIM tablet, the eight-gigabyte version of which can be purchased for only 12,000 rubles. The model is interesting due to its optimal size ratio, as well as the ability to make calls and be used for entertainment. With a body width of 11 cm, it is still quite comfortable to hold with one hand near the ear, and the weight of 300 grams will not spoil your impression of a five-minute conversation (although it is not very comfortable to have many hours of conversations on it). The screen resolution, taking into account the diagonal size, is quite acceptable - 1280x800 pixels, an additional plus is the IPS matrix, like most modern Android smartphones.

At first glance, it may seem that the battery capacity of 4270 mAh is not very large, but in practice all doubts are brushed aside after the tablet shows almost record-breaking results in offline mode: up to 12 hours inclusive. And given the good reputation of the brand with Taiwanese roots, we can safely say: this is the optimal solution for those who need a tablet-dialer.

The tablet runs Android 4.2.2 without any special shell, but with some software changes. The processor is an Intel Atom Z2560 with a frequency of 1.6 GHz (for each of the two cores), and the graphics accelerator is PowerVR SGX544MP2; there is also 1 GB of RAM.

Huawei MediaPad X1 is one of the first tablets with calling capabilities released by a famous Chinese telecommunications device manufacturer. At the same time, the manufacturer himself, immediately after the launch, categorically refused to classify the new product as a phablet and clearly positioned it as a tablet. Externally, the device is somewhat reminiscent of Apple products: white body, aluminum parts, laconic design. What especially attracts attention is the ultra-thin frames around the screen, which makes using the tablet comfortable especially for making calls. But you can buy such a tablet for 19,000 rubles.

The hardware component is represented by a HiSilicon Kirin K910 processor with a frequency of 1.5 GHz, 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage. The screen characteristics are quite decent: 7 inches diagonal, resolution 1920×1200 pixels, IPS matrix covered with Gorilla Glass. Autonomy is ensured by a 5000 mAh battery; it can be used for calls and the Internet for a maximum of two days.

The tablet runs Android 4.2.2 OS, with the Emotion UI 2.0 shell installed on top. Unfortunately, it does not have a well-thought-out system for displaying a contact photo during a call - it does not expand to full screen, but is displayed in very modest sizes, which looks quite strange in a huge seven-inch space. Otherwise, there is a standard dialer, phone book, and the ability to exchange SMS/MMS messages.

Although this has nothing to do with voice functions, I would like to highlight the camera of this tablet. Its resolution is 13 megapixels, so if you were looking for a symbiosis of a smartphone, camera and tablet, then this is in front of you.

Lenovo Tab 2 A7-30 is another “Chinese” with a good pedigree, equipped with a 3G module and endowed with the ability to make voice calls. A mini-SIM format mobile operator card is used here. By the way, the hardware platform (quad-core MediaTek MT8382 with a frequency of 1.3 GHz) allows you to work with two SIM cards at once, but the manufacturer abandoned the idea of using both of them. Therefore, you will have to choose only one mobile operator for calls and Internet access. The interface has not been seriously changed in connection with the new voice communication feature. The only important modification is to improve the quality of speech transmission and increase the speaker volume. In this regard, the tablet surpasses even some modern smartphones.

The autonomy is also okay: the standard 3450 mAh battery can last up to five hours in video playback mode and a couple of days in medium load mode. The speed is more average than impressive, and the reason mainly lies in the amount of RAM - it's only 1 GB. There is also a Mali-400MP2 graphics accelerator, a modern set of communications, and two cameras (0.3 and 2 megapixels). The image is displayed on a seven-inch screen – IPS matrix with a resolution of 1024×600 pixels. The cost of the tablet is 12,500 rubles for the 16 GB version.

Acer Iconia Talk S is a classic seven-inch tablet in a strict black casing. At the time of its release, it could still impress buyers with its voice functions and support for two SIM cards, but today, compared to its competitors, it is simply one of the good models with a good combination of price and quality. At first glance, it seems that a stereo speaker is used here, but in fact the top hole is the earpiece speaker, and the bottom is the external one. The volume reserve in them is sufficient, but not maximum.

The tray for operator cards in micro-SIM format is located on the left side; it is designed for two cards at once, which are located one behind the other. By the way, this model can additionally work with Russian LTE networks, and also supports mobile data transmission via 3G.

Working with telephone functions is a little simplified due to a special widget called Float Caller. It is a “floating” window on the desktop in which you can quickly accept a call, reject it, turn off the sound and simply understand which SIM card is receiving an incoming call. Another plus is the proximity sensor, which blocks the touch screen the moment you bring it to your face. In general, using the Acer Iconia Talk S tablet as a smartphone is quite convenient, despite its dimensions.

System performance is provided by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor with a frequency of 1.2 GHz, 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory. A 3780 mAh lithium-ion battery is responsible for autonomy.

The screen uses a regular IPS matrix with a resolution of 1280×720 pixels, covered with protective glass. The operating system is Android 4.4.4. This tablet costs 14,000 rubles.

We left one of the most interesting models of Android tablets with voice communication function for last. This is Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 , a very thoughtful and not the cheapest solution (16,500 rubles for the 16 GB version). The device comes in two modifications, which differ from each other in 3G support and, accordingly, in the presence of a slot for a cellular operator card in the usual format.

The speaker volume is sufficient for making calls, but it still cannot be called maximum. In addition, their location is such that the user, holding the tablet next to his ear, will involuntarily cover them with his finger. Therefore, it is better, of course, to use a headset. Call and SMS services are generally implemented well here, the only disappointments are the lack of a Russian layout in the dialer and the quality of photos associated with contacts. Also, the address book is not designed to allow contacts to be edited - they can only be deleted and new ones added if necessary. The nice thing is that the voice functions are combined into a widget that is easy to access from any screen. After clicking on it, a virtual keyboard and the most frequently dialed numbers open in a separate small window (analogous to the “Favorites” tab).

As for the screen, it is a standard seven-inch matrix with a resolution of 1024×600 pixels of the PLS type and Gorilla Glass protection for it. The hardware platform is a dual-core Texas Instruments OMAP 4430 processor with a clock frequency of 1.3 GHz, a PowerVR SGX540 accelerator and 1 GB of RAM. The amount of built-in storage, depending on the modification, is either 8 or 16 GB. The OS is Android 4.0.3 with the proprietary TouchWiz shell.

A 4000 mAh battery is responsible for autonomy, which is enough for an average of three days of using the tablet in gentle mode, when calls are spent no more than half an hour a day.

Almost always, when we talk about tablets with a GSM module, we mean Android devices. In fact, these are also available under Windows OS, although in a very modest range.

One such striking example is the tablet of Russian origin iRU Pad Master B1002GW . It is also unusual in that it has a slot for two SIM cards at once. Communication via GSM is supported in all modifications, and 3G is optional and at the same time significantly affects the cost of the gadget. It is impossible to say that it is convenient to make calls from it, since the screen diagonal is 10.1 inches. The OS for this purpose is also not very familiar and familiar - Windows 8.

In terms of speed and autonomy, this is a very decent device for its price (17,000 rubles). So, inside there is a quad-core Intel Atom Z3740 processor with a frequency of 1500 MHz, 2 GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal memory, and a 7900 mAh battery. The weak point of this tablet is the screen. It uses an outdated TFT matrix with a resolution of 1200×800 pixels, glossy, with a low image density (only 149 dots per inch). But this drawback is completely offset by the accessibility of the gadget, an abundance of communication capabilities (including a miniHDMI connector), and two very good cameras of 5 and 2 megapixels.

Is there an alternative?

If your tablet does not have a GSM module, you can still make calls from it. To do this, you can use either 3G or Wi-Fi complete with special programs. Among the latter, Skype, Viber, Google Talk or Fring are popular. The quality of communication and its cost will directly depend on your Internet connection conditions. However, be prepared to use headphones.

An inexpensive, but also less productive device, which boasts high quality and the presence of a SIM card slot, which makes it not only a full-fledged tablet, but also a mobile phone. The screen diagonal of the device is 8 inches. The model in the mid/low price segment is one of the best. If you are looking for something cheaper, but do not want to buy an outright “brick,” then this model is an excellent choice. It has a cool 8-inch screen, good (but far from TOP) hardware, and most importantly, support for 3g and 4g standards. The performance is unlikely to impress anyone, but you will definitely be able to play games, albeit not very demanding ones. And simply during operation, friezes and brakes are excluded.

The main advantage of the inexpensive model is the 7-inch screen. Devices in the entry-level segment rarely boast of this component, but in the case of the Lenovo Tab 4 TB-7504X 2Gb 16Gb, everything is very good here - pleasant color rendition, high level of detail and wide viewing angles.

The device supports connecting two SIM cards at the same time, but none of them support 4G LTE; you will have to be content with only 3G. However, if you remember how much the device costs, you realize that this is not so critical.

What important characteristics should you pay attention to when choosing a tablet with a SIM card?

For your information! When choosing a tablet with a SIM card, it is important to pay attention to such characteristics as:

Screen diagonal. Here you need to build on your vision and your desires. Some people are more accustomed to using a very small screen with a diagonal of 6-7 inches. Some people prefer to watch videos, play games and work on a 10-inch tablet.
Proportions and resolution. Since screen resolution affects the clarity of the picture and, accordingly, vision, it is better not to save money here. The screen with 16:9 proportions allows you to watch videos - that’s where its advantages end. The 3:4 device is more versatile. The ideal resolution for human eyes is 1920x1280 (Full HD). But 640x320 is definitely not worth taking.
Material. The plastic we are used to is easy and comfortable to hold in the hand, but it is very easy to scratch and gets hot during long periods of use. The metal case is, of course, more reliable, but heavier, and in addition, it weakens the reception of the cordless cooker.
Battery. The larger it is, the longer the device works - everyone knows this. But there are a number of nuances here too. Firstly, such energy-consuming functions as GPS and 3g modules “eat up” a lot of charge. Secondly, the batteries run out quickly if you use the tablet in the cold. You can, however, buy a Power Bank and carry it with you all the time. The older the battery, the worse it holds its charge. Therefore, when choosing a tablet, it is better to choose a model with a removable battery.
Matrix. Super IPS is the latest development: the picture is almost perfect, but this model is expensive. TN+FILM - on the contrary, the most affordable. It conveys colors, but poorly; in addition, the image is practically invisible in bright sunlight. MVA and IPS are the most popular and optimal options.
Operating system. Windows is of high quality and is regularly updated, Android is very flexible in settings, supports the launch of many free applications and is also often updated. iOS is the very first OS for tablets and is quite stable.
RAM. 1 or even 2 GB will not be enough today; choose a model with an indicator of 4 or more.

Important! Additional functions, such as, for example, GPS (to determine your location), a gyroscope or a light sensor, provide additional comfort, but are not available in all models.
