hello! I just want to ask if it's just me wherein there are certain instances where my lenovo legion y700 2024 notifications flickers? I just forgot to take a video from it but it was blinking/flickering.

So my idea is to connect my new (on its way) lenovo y700 2023 to an USB c dock that has two monitors, network and power charging.

Does anyone know if this tablet can recognise both monitors? I know it can work with one really well, just wondering if I can take advantage of the extra real estate.

If no one tried it, but is curious, I will test it out at work when I receive it 😅

Thanks!

Looking for the newest possibly, that's available used.

Thanks.

Hey everyone - I just found my old Android tablet, an innopad i10 from a decade ago. It is still in really good condition, but runs a little slowly for obvious reasons. Is there a way I can update it so it's useful/worth selling perhaps?

• Android version 4.0.3
• Baseband version 1.0.1
• Kernel version 3.0.8 android3@Linux # 94
• Build number crane_evb-eng 4.0.3 IML74K 20120331 test-keys

Thank you :)

I am a student living in Canada and I'm thinking of investing in a tablet for taking notes. I probably won't be multitasking and definitely won't be gaming.
I was originally interested in the Galaxy tab s6 lite (2024) for 230$ CAD, but I don't want it to be laggy in 2 years due to the 4GB of ram.
I am now looking at either the Pixel tablet with 8GB of ram for 389$ CAD vs S9 FE with 6GB of ram and S pen for 399$ CAD. I am interested in the S9 FE as its has the pen support and Samsung notes, however I don't know if 6GB will be enough in 2 years.

Thank you for any responses!

Hello folks, as per title, do you think buying a Xiaomi Pad 6 today at 250 euro is a decent choice considering support/medium term?

Main purposes:

- light gaming (mostly Balatro and Slay the Spire really, PS2 emulation a nice to have)

- media consumption

- reading

Hi guys, there is any news when samsung will release Tab A10 ?

So right now with Black Friday going on I figured there wont be a better time to get a tablet for cheap. My budget is around 200€, and I am mainly looking for a tablet to play clash of clans, watch youtube/netflix and to do occasional research/surfing the web.

I figured the Galaxy Tab A9 would be a no brainer for my (i guess not heavy use-case) but I also heard, that it lacks performance in the long run. Then there is also the Gakaxy Tab A9+, Xiaomi Pad Pro, Lenovo Tab M11 and many others so Im kind of getting overwhelmed by the choices. Some advice or general experience with either one of those tablets would be really great!

Also I've seen that there is a huge discount for the Tab S9 FE. Would it be worth it to spend the extra 100€? Especially for my use-case, i guess the S9 FE would be kind of overkill.

Thanks for reading and for any help!

Hey guys! I recently decided I wanted to get a tablet for reading and watching media. Perfectly fine with 11" screen, as I'm going to be using it for it's portability. I've always had samsung phones, so that's what I'd prefer with my tablet.

Im unsure what I should go for, at first the A9+ seemed like a no brainer with its $150-200 price point [black friday] but I'm not as impressed with the screen quality and want something that will hold up and not slow down.

My budget is under $300 ideally. Wanted to get opinions on if I should get the A9+, S9FE, or get a refurbished S7/S8.

WHY

I am the owner of a Galaxy Tab S9, and a Lenovo M10 3rd Gen. And I am amazed at just how GOOD both of them are as computing devices. One is an upper tier tablet and one is a lower-middle tier tablet. This is a long story, so please bear with me.

I originally had the Lenovo as my portable computing device that I'd take with me when I traveled. It wasn't as responsive as a Desktop PC, but it was reasonably 'snappy'. I used a stylus, took notes with it, and printed documents to my HP M139 laser printer. I was satisfied with it

As I became increasingly aware that Microsoft and I were not headed in the same direction, I began to wonder if the Lenovo could take up the difference between me and Microsoft. But with only 4GB of RAM and an older CPU, it wasn't quite 'snappy' enough for me, Plus Android is seriously lacking in Photography apps aimed at the "serious" photographer. Yes, there is a truncated version of Lightroom, but you have to do business with Adobe and I wasn't that desperate.

I then bought, the Samsung Tab s9. With 8 gb of RAM, and a micro SD card port, AND DEX, I thought it would be far more likely to meet my needs as a writer and as a photographer, I still couldn't use it for photo editing, the inability to calibrate the screen for color, and the lack of an editor of quality meant that I would have to use my Desktop now powered with Linux Mint for photo editing. Not a perfect solution, but one I could live with.

But its snappy performance did mean I could use it as a photo intake device and send my photos to an online (cloud) storage service for later editing with the Desktop. Plus DEX, and the better software situation for writing meant that it could handle all my text and numbers based computing fairly easily, and even allow for some level of multi-tasking.

DIFFERENCES

I like and can recommenced the two tablets for different reasons.

The Samsung stylus and notes app is first rate and means I can replace MS OneNote. It is far superior to the still usable Lenovo stylus. And there is no confusion about which stylus to use. Some Lenovo styli only work with some Lenovo devices. It's much easier with Samsung. Third party software works well with the Lenovo, but there is no Lenovo dedicated stylus based software available.

DEX is not that useful compared to the 'regular' Samsung UI. I was surprised that something this clever didn't really improve my overall productivity.

Oddly, I can't print to my HP M139 printer from the Tab S9, but I can from my Lenovo M10. I've tried to troubleshoot, and as near as I can tell, to print from Samsung tablets, the printer needs to be able to use some sort of protocol that not all printers from all manufacturers equip their printers with. The m139 w is an HP printer that can not use that protocol. I'm not sure if I will buy another printer, or just transfer print files to my Lenovo for printing. I really like the m139w printer, and don't really want to go back to an inkjet/dye sub/thermal printer, if I can help it. And I don't want to spend the money on a different Laser Printer. I do serious photo printing from a commercial photo printing service so photo printing is of secondary importance.

Multitasking is FAR superior with the Tab S9. It allows me to multitask without having to monitor how many windows I have open or how many Chromium tabs are open in my Brave Browser. With the Lenovo m10, I can have say, 2 productivity apps open or 3 - 4 tabs in Chromium type browsers before performance takes a hit.

The biggest difference between the two is overall responsiveness. The Lenovo's performance is 'acceptable' but nowhere close to that of the Tab S9.

Both perform well with the simple time wasting games that I indulge in. I'm not a serious gamer, but I have no doubt the Samsung will outperform the Lenovo on that front.

Both are good for writing. Both run Google Docs and Microsoft Office quite well. The closest thing to Scrivener for Android that I have found is Wavemaker Cards ( see r/wavemakercards ) which is a free browser based PWA (progressive web app). It's not perfect, but it is as close as I have been able to come, and as a PWA, I can use it on any platform. There are the subscription based online writing applicaions available. But I'd rather spend less money than more.

CONCLUSION

If you are willing to live with the software limitations that Android offers, than you can (mostly) replace your PC with an Android device. If you can not, then you might have to use an iPad. I don't know why Android comes up short in the software department, is it THAT much more difficult to develop for Android?

As to why I can't print to an HP m139w from Samsung, that is a MAJOR issue in my mind. The tablet is otherwise, first rate and worth the money Samsung charges.

DEX is clever, but I question if it really is doing all that much in terms of enhanced productivity. Maybe if you are a heavy multitasker, the windowing environment might be useful. But I am used to a more modest multitasking environment even with a PC, and the Lenovo's multitasking capabilities are adequate for my needs.

If money is tight, you can get a LOT done with the Lenovo, but if you have more money, that TAB S9 is pretty good.

So long as you are willing to make some changes to your workflow, and keep your expectations to a 'reasonable' level, I think you can successfully replace a desktop PC with an Android tablet.

Hi, I would like to get a tablet for exclusive use for reading comics and manga. To read books I already have an e-reader but the screen is too small and I don't want to spend all that money on Kindle Scribe, it's too much for my use.

So I'm wondering if there might be a super cheap tablet that I would use just for that purpose. No streaming, no YouTube videos and no gaming.

Is a cheap Aliexpress tablet good in your opinion?

Is that purchasing from UNBOXIFY website is legit? Can I purchase from it?

For anyone interested in getting the y700 2025 for US $340 before tax from AliExpress. Search y700 2025. There should be a deal for $539.99 from 70mai Goldway store Use coupon 120BLACKF ($120 discount) and the $80 off $499 coupon in your country. Should come to $339.99 for the 12gb/256gb version or $409.99 for the 16/512gb pre tax. Enjoy

Edit: 120BLACKF only works on the y700 selling for $539.99/$609.99 NOT the $439.99/$509.99, which uses code B5CODE30. You should only buy the $439.99 model if you are unable to collect a $80-499 coupon and only have a $60-399 one. It just means it cost $10 more than the $539.99 model.

Also if you need a stylus, buy it separately. Do not buy it bundle with the tablet, it is overpriced. 70mai Goldway is selling it for USD $20.99 plus $0.84 shipping. Which comes to $17.99 plus $0.84 shipping with your countries's $3-19 coupon.

Hey guys, I've never owned a tablet before but was feeling overwhelmed by the sheer number of tablets out there. Could you fine folks point me in the right direction? I am looking for a basic tablet that I can use to check email, browse the web, and play simple games. Looking for non apple tablets. Budget is from 1-500$ but don't think I need anything at the higher end given my basic needs. Prioritize picture/image quality and screen size.

Thanks for reading!

Hi all, I recently purchased an Android tablet and was wondering: can I if I want to use it as a laptop replacement, RDP into a Windows 11 instance?

Does anyone have this working? Would appreciate your thoughts on this.

E.g. https://shadow.tech/en-GB

I just want to use my tablet to when I need to work connect to a Windows RDP hosted elsewhere with low latency, and work from it as if I had a laptop.

Really interested in this type of functionality and I have no idea where to begin.

Hi everyone, I've been waiting for this package for so long. There is almost no information about this tablet on the internet, so now. You are ready to tell you and show it to you. Ask your questions :)

Hi.

I'm looking for a new 8 inch tablet and saw the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 for £105 in the Amazon black friday sale. I currently have a Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite 8 but it's getting pretty slow and laggy. The main use for the tablet is web browsing with a bit of YouTube/Sky Go/TNT sport streaming.

My main concern with the tablet is the low resolution of 800x1340 compared to 1920x1200 which I have on the Huawei tablet. How much of a difference will this make?

Is there anything else I should be concerned about with the A9 or is there another tablet I should be looking at?

Thanks

Looking for a new tablet for my son at christmas.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hello,

I'm thinking of buying the Lenovo Tab M11 with the Lenovo Tab Pen, and looking for reviews specifically about how the pen works for note taking on oneNote or any other note taking app.

Please let me know if the tablet is worth buying only for note taking purposes.

Thanks!

Galaxy S8+ or S9

Hello I am looking to buy either the S8+ tab or the s9. It will be used for college work, notes grading etc. I am inclined to get the s8+ due it it's size but I am going to be using it for watching movies and shows so the s9 has the better display I guess? S8+ has Super Amoled and the S9 has Dynamic Amoled both at 120hz, is there a notable difference between the two? I also know the stylus on the s8+ has a 6.8ms latency and on the s9 it has a 2.5ms latency. Is the differencd noticeable? Many Thanks for any help/advice.
