Tecno has released the Megapad SE 2 tablet in the Philippines, targeting users who need a large screen for media consumption without a premium price tag. The device fills a gap for affordable 4G LTE tablets by offering a high-resolution display and cellular connectivity at a sub-$220 price point. Buyers looking for a dedicated reading or streaming device will find the combination of size and network independence practical for on-the-go use.

Affordable LTE tablet targets media consumers with large screen

The tablet centers around a 9.7-inch LCD panel that delivers a 2,048 by 1,280 pixel resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. Tecno equips the display with a peak brightness rating of 550 nits to improve visibility in indoor environments. The device measures 7.9mm in thickness and weighs approximately 387g, making it a substantial but manageable slab for handheld use.

Under the hood, the Megapad SE 2 relies on the MediaTek Helio G88 chipset paired with 4GB of RAM. The octa-core CPU operates at speeds up to 2.0GHz, while the Mali-G52 MC2 GPU handles graphics tasks. Storage starts at a base level but scales up to 256GB internally, with support for expansion via a microSD card up to 2TB.

Connectivity options include a single nano-SIM slot for 4G LTE service, dual-band Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. The tablet runs HiOS 16 based on Android 16, providing a modern software foundation for its hardware. Camera duties are split between an 8MP rear sensor and an identical 8MP front-facing lens for video calls.

Power comes from a 7,000mAh battery that supports 18W wired charging through a USB-C port. The device ships in three colorways: Deep Gray, Sandy Titanium, and Iris Purple. Tecno prices the 4GB/256GB configuration at 13,499 PHP (around $217) through local retailers like Shopee.

The Megapad SE 2 is now available in the Philippines, establishing a clear entry-level option for the region's mobile tablet market. This launch confirms Tecno's strategy to offer LTE-enabled Android tablets with high-resolution screens at accessible price points.
