It is a bit disappointing, as the build quality and feel of the product is positive.
The screen gives plenty but takes away battery life.
The T70 is one of its top-tier tablets, designed for both home and office use.

That hints at the biggest issue with this design: Teclast didn’t create any accessories for it.
It’s not quite up there with thebest business tablets.
Also, the cameras aren’t at the level I’d expect in an entry-level phone.
Except in the UK, Amazon.co.uk doesn’t carry this tablet, and TEMU says it’s discontinued.
For American customers, the T70 costs $218.03, exclusive of Tax, through AliExpress.
Given the specifications, the price seems excellent.
However, the single point of source isn’t ideal for getting the best price.
Hopefully, Teclast will make it more widely available soon.
Thebest rugged tabletthis, clearly, is not.
But it’s not trying to be.
The top edge has a power button and volume rocker.
On the right is the USB-C charging port, a 3.5mm audio jack, and a SIM card slot.
With the exception of some perforations for speaker sound, that’s all the details on the edges.
There are no pogo pins for a charging station, no custom buttons, and no fingerprint reader.
Security is limited to either a PIN code or face recognition using the front-facing camera.

However, the highly glossy glass coating on the screen is a nightmare with any strong reflected light sources.
Sometimes less is more, I concluded after my first use.
It is fabricated at 6nm for power efficiency and supports 4G LTE communications.

It doesn’t offer 5G, but in some regions, that limitation is not a real issue.
Provided with a PSU that can output 33W, the T70 can be fully charged in around 2.5 hours.
What blew my mind a little was that the camera app has a toggle for HDR mode.

There are some special camera modes, but there is no mechanism for detecting which one should be used.
I can confidently say that it doesn’t make the pictures good.
The cameras on the T70 have two redeeming features.

I’m not sure if these aspects counter the low-quality pictures that this machine captures.
Things get interesting when the tests come to battery life, where the T70 is something of a liability.
Choices were made, and running time was the loser.

Should I buy a Teclast T70 Tablet?
It will capture 1440p video, but you have zero control over the FPS.
