Note: I think the battery is actually 5100mah.

I bought this tablet on sale during Boxing Day at Best Buy for 100 Canadian dollars. I bought it because my previous tablet the Blackberry Playbook had its charging port broken and the maker discontinues it for a long time. That tablet was a 7 inch with 1gb of ram which was the main reason I didn't go for the Lenovo Tab M7 tablet, as it was certain the latter is going to lag. I bought for my relative who can't read so she can't use a computer and we don't want her to mess our smartphones, but we put a library of videos and photos to keep her busy offline, especially during the pandemic. My other relative uses it to play casual games like Candy Crush and it's obviously more convenient because of the screen size compared to smartphones. I did a little bit to testing on this tablet with video game console emulators and it go up to Dolphin in which it really lags. I don't really use it smart hub features because we don't have any smart devices but the charging dock was an attractive feature for us, for being able to charge the device in 2 different ways. Great video review, it's been a month we have it and we're still satisfied.

Good job 👍 r j keep up the good work dude okay!!!

Great video 👌

Was looking for a table tv , after watching this I think I might have found it , awesome video man , keep up the great content !!! 👍

I think Lenovo made a compromise by cutting back on some things. On their website it states that the screen was designed to cut back on blue light that could reflect on why the screens brightness is not great in natural lit environments, take that as you will. However, in terms of battery life, this is good so there's your compromise. The processor is entry level on the market and at this tablets price point that's what you're gonna expect. Cameras on tablets personally are probably one of the most unused and obsolete features of a tablet unless you're using it for videos calls etc.

THIS tablet is the greatest content and quality and its great use for everything i have this tablet

Best tab deal on the market !

I've ordered one to get back into college with to do work on etc. I dont mind about the brightness my phone is always somewhat low and is rarely put up high my eyes are too sensitive for that. I'm in the uk at its £110 for me came up to £138 for VAT for 3 years and delivery. Quite happy for that cant wait to get it.

I love mine

I LOVE THIS TABLET what do you mean

Good

Lenovo should do better with their naming...some people are buying the older model which they call (2nd Gen) but only has single speaker

I’m sure getting this bad boy for the heck of it @ Walmart for good!!

Is the Hulu app compatible with this tablet? I’ve bought budget tablets before and run into a problem where I couldn’t download some of my favorite streaming apps because they weren’t compatible with the device.

Great video and most helpful! I'm kind of new to this and would like to ask if I am able to transfer photos and itunes from my Mac computer to this device and if so, some type of tutorial that would guide me...thanks so much!

I second that request. Since there is no instruction manual for transferring videos, music or still images (commonly called photos) it would be nice to see an instructional video on transferring with a Mac.

Hello, sorry for the delayed reply. I'm really not sure how it would work for online schooling. I'm not really sure what kinda task and all are involved, and I would hate to accidentally misinform you.

Hi, this tablet comes with Android 10, I don't know if it's from the version, but the three navigation buttons don't appear at the bottom of the pages. How do I fix this? There is no option to add them in the settings.

Does this tablet work with Stadia?

I got 3 😁 . I also got an iPad air last week and I'll be honest, I haven't touched it since I bought this tablet it's really amazing. It's no iPad air but for the price and the size it's definitely fun. Also I found that putting a sd card and moving as many apps as possible to the card helped with the lag and stuttering. It's being really smooth. I'm loving it.

This is the best tablet what do you mean is good

Great little tablet, but the front camera is very bad when recording video, it´s like it is moving in 5-10 FPS.... Can i improve that a little????
