Good basic tablet. The construction is nice, seems solid. 3GB of RAM is adequate but 4 would be a big improvement. Some mapping apps lag. The size and screen are very good, plenty of brightness outside. The bezels are fairly small which does make holding it a challenge without activating the touch screen. I personally like the 8" size, it's much easier to handle, use as navigation in car.

Coming from a Tab S4 9.7" that I used regularly for many months, I have found this one to be a lot less capable. Yes, there is a big price difference between the two but several things about the tablet drive me crazy. Firstly, you can only get it with 32GB of internal storage (20GB actually available). Devices these days should have at least 128GB. Once I added a MicroSD card it asked me if I wanted to expand my internal storage or use it seperately. I choose expand but after installing many apps got a notification that I couldn't add any more because there isn't enough room (while it shows that I still have over 150GB free). If you only plan on installing a few small apps, this tablet would work fine but if you're like me and install a lot of games and apps then pass on this for sure and get something like a Galaxy Tab S6 instead with 128GB or 256GB internal storage. Secondly, when you go to the Play Store and look at reviews, they are shown in a really small screen that's about half the width and height of the tablets display. There are other minor annoyances throughout as well, like not being able to swipe through the text while writing this review. Instead your forced to use keyboard arrows. Thirdly, and this one bugs me the most, the icon packs I use on my smartphone aren't available for the tablet. I use specific icons for my folders and this complete screws up my productivity. You wouldn't think something as simple as an icon pack would be universal and work on any type of Android device and version, but they don't. Same goes for apps. It's like hit and miss if an app will be compatible with your tablet these days, which makes buying Android tablets a real hassle. Forthly, the brightness control is very finicky. It jumps from about 5% to 50% making it either too dark to see or too bright which also drains the battery faster. Lastly, if you use the MicroSD Card and ever change it, or it fails, many apps fail on the tablet and it crashes badly. If you're just going to be using it occasionally, it will do, and the 8" screen size is excellent compared to the huge 10.5" and 12" alternatives. It's much easier to hold for extended periods. If you plan on using it every day and play a lot of demanding games, I would recommend a Galaxy Tab S6 or S7 instead though. Read full review

I just don't like Chrome. I'm so used to another brand and those features. The tablet works fine but I think it comes to a close second to the more expensive one. No problem with apps or speed/connection so this is a more personal opinion then anything. Saying that, I can download Firefox and work with that. The big problem I have with this tablet is there is no back button on the bottom and sometimes a page won't have a back arrow. You have to go swipe back to home and start over. Having that feature would make this tablet substantially better.

The fact that it has a metal back is impressive as it keeps the whole tablet, especially the screen, from warping and/or distorting. The tablet is now thiner than past generations due to the structual integrity. I trust Lenovo rather than other brands that load the tablet with bloat ware making a cleaner more efficient performing product.

It works very well. Much faster than my old tablet. My old tablet hung frequently and required frequent restarts to get it to work. I have none of that with this one. Some were negative about the quality of the display but I am happy with it. It does only have one speaker but that works well. I use headphones a lot which works great.
