Review on πŸ–₯️ Black Lenovo Ideatab A1000 7-Inch Tablet with 8GB Storage by Jonathan Sanders

Revainrating 4 out of 5

For this price, how can you beat it

This is a very simple but very useful tablet from the great computer manufacturer Lenovo (formerly IBM Thinkpad), let's talk about the positive aspects: 1). Price at the time of writing $89.2). Modern operating system Jellybean3). The sound and speakers are excellent for a tablet4). 8 MB expandable up to 32 GB via microSD card5). Bluetooth, you have to spend a lot more to get Bluetooth on a tablet (this was my main selling point as all my music is stored on a 16GB microSD and with a rechargeable Bluetooth speaker you have a jukebox on the go) which Lenovo has fixed two main issues with this tablet 1) the internal storage has been expanded, you need to use the first system update 2) Netflix won't start, you need to use the second system update and clear app data in Netflix. Other disadvantages: 3). Crappy 0.3 MP camera (I never use a tablet camera anyway) 4). The screen resolution isn't HD but at this size you need it unless you're a gamer (no, I'm not a gamer), Netflix played clearly and was very convenient. I haven't seen a tablet that works well in the sun, and this one doesn't work well in the sun either. For me this is the perfect tablet after Lenovo fixed the internal storage issue and Netflix issue. This is not a tablet for update fans. and geeks who need the latest and most powerful specs. Most of us don't really need it.

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • is enough
