Walmart has rolled out six new Onn-branded Android tablets ranging from $97 to $288, holding the line on entry-level pricing at a moment when most consumer electronics are creeping upward. The whole lineup ships with Android 16 and, crucially, the Google Play Store preinstalled, which sidesteps the usual gymnastics required to get a full app catalog onto budget hardware like Amazon's Fire tablets.
The headline model is the Onn 7" Core, a $97 (€89) slate built around a 2 GHz MediaTek Helio G80, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, and a modest 1024 x 600 display. Stepping up, the $138 (€127) Onn 8.1" Core moves to a Qualcomm Snapdragon 685, 6GB of RAM, and a sharper 1524 x 1000 IPS panel, while the $167 (€154) Onn 11" Core pairs a MediaTek Helio G99 with 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and an 1840 x 1280 screen measuring 27.9 cm (11 inches).
At the top sits the Onn 13" Pro at $288 (€266), with an unspecified 2.6 GHz MediaTek chip, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, and a 2400 x 1600 display roughly 33 cm (13 inches) across. Unlike most tablets in this bracket, it ships with a folio case and stylus in the box rather than as paid extras. Two kid-oriented models round out the range, the Onn 8 Kids at $118 (€109) and Onn 11 Kids at $136 (€125), both bundled with a bumper case and a curated software shell.
Camera hardware across the lineup is unremarkable, which is typical for tablets at these prices. The Onn brand carries a notable track record with the Android modding community: prior generations have earned a dedicated subforum on XDA Developers and the ONN-Tablet-Hacking GitHub project, where bootloader unlocking, TWRP custom recovery installation, and root methods using the open-source mtkclient toolchain are documented for earlier MediaTek-based models. The 2026 lineup is newly released and no device-specific community work has been confirmed for these models yet.
For anyone watching the budget Android space, the more interesting story is the competitive pressure on Amazon's Fire line, especially as Amazon shifts Fire TV devices to the Linux-based Vega OS and raises questions about Fire OS's long-term future on tablets. The new Onn tablets are available now through Walmart.
