LUMOS Tablet Pro Review : Is it Worth it?

 

When a tablet under $250 markets itself as a “Pro” model, it’s natural to raise an eyebrow. 

After all, most tablets offering premium specs like 12GB RAM and an octa-core processor easily cost three times as much. Can LUMOS, a brand already popular for its affordable projectors, really pull off a professional-grade tablet at a fraction of the price? We got our hands on the LUMOS Tablet Pro to find out.

Fast and Smooth Performance

The LUMOS Tablet Pro boasts 18GB of RAM (12GB physical + 6GB virtual) and 128GB of storage. On paper, that’s more than what most mid-range tablets offer, and in real life, it doesn’t disappoint. Switching between apps feels instantaneous, and even with multiple tabs open, the device handles tasks without lag. The T606 octa-core processor adds to that seamless experience, making web browsing, streaming, and even casual gaming fluid and enjoyable. 

It runs on the latest Android 15 to ensure a smooth performance. A 8MP back camera is included in the device.

Always Connected with Dual 4G SIM

One of the standout features is its Dual 4G SIM slot. This means you can stay connected anywhere, even without Wi-Fi. It’s especially useful if you’re out and about or want a backup for mobile data. Having the option to use two SIMs also makes it handy for those who travel or need a separate line for work and personal use.

Crystal Clear Display and Handy Size

With its 10.1-inch IPS Full HD+ display (1200p), the LUMOS Tablet Pro offers vivid colors and sharp visuals. Whether you’re watching videos, playing games, or working on documents, the screen performs well under most lighting conditions. The display is comfortably sized for both handheld and tabletop use Not too bulky, yet big enough for binge-watching Netflix or making presentations.

Built for a Full Day’s Use

Battery life is another plus point. The tablet runs up to 8 hours on a single charge, which covers a typical day of mixed usage from emails in the morning to video streaming at night. While it’s not the longest in the market, it’s more than sufficient for most users who charge overnight.

Sleek and Professional Look

At just 490g, the Tablet Pro is lightweight and 20% slimmer than its predecessor. The matte finish and slim profile give it a polished, professional look that rivals higher-end models. While there may be other tablets at this price range, the quality of the unit and the interface are on another level for the LUMOS Tablet Pro.  

Whether you’re using it for work or leisure, it looks and feels premium in your hand. This is something rare for this price range.

Beyond a Tablet: A Versatile Tool

Thanks to Mirror Casting technology, the LUMOS Tablet Pro can easily project onto a larger screen wirelessly or via HDMI. This makes it great not just for entertainment but also for presentations or gaming. It transforms quickly from a personal device into a shared screen experience, giving it flexibility beyond typical tablets.

From Tablet to Mini Laptop

If you top up $79 for the accessories bundle, the Tablet Pro turns into a mini workstation. The bundle includes a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse, stylus pen, and case cover. This is everything you need to turn it into a lightweight laptop alternative. Typing documents or taking notes becomes much easier, making it suitable for students, professionals, or anyone who wants productivity on the go.

Verdict

LUMOS has built a strong local reputation for value-driven tech products, and the Tablet Pro continues that streak. It delivers where it matters in terms of power, performance, and portability. At half the cost of comparable models from major brands. The result is a device that feels far from “budget.”

For students, it’s an affordable educational tool. For working adults, it’s a versatile tablet for meetings, note-taking, and streaming. And for families, it’s an all-round entertainment hub that doesn’t break the bank.

At $249 with a 1-year local warranty, and $79 more for the full accessories kit, the LUMOS Tablet Pro hits the sweet spot between price and performance. It’s not just a good budget tablet, it’s arguably the best value-for-money tablet available in Singapore right now.
