Onn 11 Tablet Pro (2024) - A Pleasant Surprise (Mini Review)
Hi All,
Just wanted to post a mini review of the Onn 11 Tablet Pro (2024) for uses in Moonlight/Artemis. I suspect a few people may have snagged the Open-box closeouts from Walmart/VIPOUTLET for $45. I just tested this tablet out with streaming and I am very pleasantly surprised at the quality of this tablet. This is hands down the best budget tablet I've used even around the $100-$150 price point let alone getting it for $45 is an absolute steal.
Anyways, setup for this tablet required a bit of troubleshooting. I first tried the main Artemis build and this provided somewhat bad results 11-13ms. This is not unexpected since the base build was optimized around Snapdragon not MediaTek. Enter Artemide (Derflacco's fork). This build dropped decoding latency down to 8ms which is great for such a cheap device.
So heres a slight oddity... this tablet uses a weird resolution of 1840x1280. Codec Info states that the max decoding resolution is 1920x1080 60fps. The native resolution fails to start the stream due to this limitation. Only after dropping to 1840x1120 (similar bandwidth to 1080p) was the stream able to start. Alternatively, using 1920x1080 works just fine but you end up with scaling issues and is all around a worse experience.
I saved the best for last... this thing has a 90hz panel! Between the 8ms decode, 90Hz, and $45, this is hands down the best budget Android tablet around (even at MSRP). I am actually kind of excited for Onn's new 2026 lineup with their 8.1" tablet. I can see the SD685 as a serious contender against more expensive tablets like Y700 and the consistently out of stock ALLDOCUBE tablets.
Hope this helps someone in the future. Happy game streaming!
