Lenovo tablets - advice needed

bluenosedave · April 7, 2019

An elderly relative of mine is looking for a new tablet. In the past she has used a Samsung but i noticed that there is a tablet by Lenovo with virtually the same spec but for £50 less.
She only uses it for online banking, playing candy crush, and other daft games, reading facebook and looking for gossip about Everton transfers so doesnt really need anything brilliant.
The only obvious difference i can see is the battery life is shorter on the Lenovo. Can any tech genius on here advise if she is better off saving £50 or is the Lenovo really that bad.

The 2 tablets in question are the Lenovo Tab E10 10.1" ( £130) and the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1" (£180)

Cheers.

....never heard of Lenovo, I was going to suggest you ask your chemist.

Lenovo is a pretty decent make, they took over a part of IBM. That’ll do fine for what she needs.

If you're worried about scrimping out, buy the Lenovo and send the extra £50 to me. That way everyone's happy.

Glad to have helped.

No idea about their tablets but I've a Lenovo ideapad as my laptop and it's ace. They are a premium brand without the premium price.

My daughter has a Lenovo Tab 4 8" and it seems pretty good for what she uses it for which is youtube and games. Battery life is pretty good and it runs fast enough.
