Blackview Mega 3 in Kenya
The Blackview Mega 3 is a 12.1-inch Android 15 tablet that targets users who want a large, AI-capable screen without stepping into premium pricing territory. Released in June 2025, it stands out for its 2.5K IPS display, Helio G100 processor, and built-in Doke AI assistant powered by DeepSeek-R1, ChatGPT, and Gemini AI 2.0 Flash. At 555g it is significantly lighter than the Blackview Active 12 Pro and closer to a true everyday carry.
