Customer Reviews
1024 screen which is a very responsive capacitive screen with pinch to zoom.
Although only a single core processor, more than fast enough for general browsing.
Official Android Market - games download quickly (I downloaded a racing game that utilises the device's motion sensor).
Battery power is very good (I was browsing, downloading, game playing and streaming; lasted for about 6 hours.
Comes with Documents to go which is compatible with Word etc.
Build quality is solid.
For a branded tablet with these specs at this price it's highly recommended, although if you need 3G, I'm pretty sure you need to look elsewhere.
If I had any complaints at all about this device, it's that the illuminated touch sensitive buttons on the frame switch off too quickly. After a couple of hours of using it you'll instinctively know where they are, so it's not such a problem. My only other gripe is that because the IdeaPad uses an OS designed for phone resolutions, the widgets won't centre on the 1024 x 600 screen. This is more of a minor irritation than a problem and doesn't affect the tablet in any way.
If you're looking for a mid-priced tablet manufactured by a major brand, then this should definitely be right at the top of your shortlist.
Integration with Google is seamless, it automatically sync'd my gmail, contacts & Picasa photos! Using the Android Marketplace is much easier than using Apple's App store (and hey I am an apple fanboy!).
My main fear was the screen size, 7" compared to 10" of other tablets. I've put it along aside an iPad and there's not much in it if you are looking for a coffee table computer. (I can almost fit 3 iPod touches in the screen area BTW!)
The huge plus with this machine is the additional SD socket. As well as the onboard 16GB of ram (referred to as "internal SD") there is also an empty micro SD socket you can plug in a micro SD card. So, if you buy an additional 32GB micro SD card (currently £22 delivered on Amazon UK) you can turn this little badger into a 48GB tablet! Don't suppose it'll be long before 64GB SDs are this price either.
Botton line for me..why spend £400 if all you will be mainly doing is looking up recipes in Goggle, IMDB'ing Movie stars to see if they've kicked it, reading books with the Kindle app in the Loo, showing off the photos of the grandchildren and watching BBC iPlayer in bed when you do the same for almost £250 less?
It's quite a nice looking tablet, perfect size for what i wanted which was mainly the odd bit of browsing... Read more
the good things about Lenovo is it's lightweight , great for downloading books because not only does it have the Kindle, & Kobo apps on it there is a Number of... Read more
