Is it a good time to buy Lenovo Y700 2023

I’m from Australia and looking to purchase the Lenovo Y700 2023 from AliExpress.

As far as the exchange rates isn’t in our favor now, is there any so call good time or deals to buy it in the next month or two to get some savings?

APU500 pen keeps turning off y700 tablet

Basically the title. I have a case with an elastic pen holder. The APU500 or Lenovo tablet Pen Plus when attached will put the tablet to sleep. Not too much of a problem, except when the pen gets bumped or swiveled, the tablet will wake up and maybe go back to sleep.

How do I turn off this pen wake/sleep feature, and where can I complain/suggest OS features to Lenovo? I've got a bone to pick with auto brightness steps being too large as well as not being able to turn off the tablet screen while using screen cast or desktop mode.

chat should i get this?

looking for the cheapest oled option i'll mostly use it to learn drawing and watching stuff so basically a 4-5 hour battery is perfect as long as it's an oled display

Looking for a $200-$275 (USD) Tablet for taking notes, streaming and reading manga.

Hi, I'm trying to find up to date recommendations for a tablet based on the needs I've listed in the title of this post. The most common recommendations I've found in previous posts are the Xiaomi Pad 6, Xiaoxin Pad Pro 12.7 2023/2025 and Samsung Galaxy S9 FE. However, I'm struggling to find these devices anywhere close to this price range from any reliable sellers (even including student discounts and other sales.)

If someone could point me in the direction of a reliable seller for any of these products so I can monitor them for any upcoming sales, I'd really appreciate it. Feel free to suggest other devices that may fit into my budget as well. Thanks in advance.

Alldocube official store listing iplay 60 Mini Turbo for two different prices?

Posted this in an older chat, but hopefully more likely to get a response in its own thread.

Thinking about getting the iplay 60 mini turbo to replace my 2yr-old's Fire HD 8 that he's finally managed to smash.

Anyway, can anyone tell me what the difference is between these two listings on Aliexpress?

Both appear to be the same item from the same seller (the official store), yet one's £37 more than the other.

Prices have changed a little since yesterday.

While I'm at it I guess I may as well ask if anyone's got any alternative recommendations for a small tablet in the same £100 ish price range? He's only really going to be watching videos on it (ie VLC, youtube, etc), perhaps some basic educational games, etc. Although I'd prefer to get him something decent, mainly for my own selfish reasons that the Fire HD did my nut in with how slooooooow and rubbish it was.

Thanks in advance.

Xbox cloud gaming device

Hello. I am looking for an iPad, tablet, ect to play Xbox cloud gaming as well as mobile apps. I am trying to find a device that runs Xbox cloud gaming smoothly with high quality that will also do the same with mobile apps. I am trying to stay within the $200 range or lower and am trying to stay clear of computers. I currently have a Lenovo chromebook IdeaPad duet (2020) which runs games pretty terribly. I was looking into the Galaxy Pad A9+ 128gb 8gb ram, but I am not sure what my best option would be. Feel free to give me feedback or suggestions. Thanks

What tablet to choose.

Greetings and hoping all of you are doing great. Im looking for a cheap tablet, but with SIM Slot.

I have this options: Galaxy Tab S5e (used) A9+ 5G (used) ALLDOCUBE iplay 50 mini pro (new)

I just want it to surf web, use it as a sms receiver, a backup device (mails and accounts safety) and watch content.

I like de ALLDOCUBE, for the price and double sim, but I don’t trust the software (cause of the stuff that happened with Chinese tv boxes). So any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks!

China ROM with Alldocube? Any problem?

I am planning to get an iPlay60 mini turbo and just wondering for people that have it, is it CN ROM? and usage is fine?

I've been reading this subreddit and notice some posts talks about CN ROMs on Lenovo and what not, is it really a problem? or does some tablet works better with different ROM?

Is Xiaomi Redmi Pad SE (8.7-inch) good for gaming?

I'm planning to buy a tablet this year, and I saw an official Xiaomi store on Shopee. The Redmi Pad SE (8.7-inch) is the cheapest option available, and I can use vouchers to make it even more affordable. Is it good for gaming, specifically for Identity V? I’ve seen videos of people playing demanding games like Call of Duty Mobile, PUBG, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, and Genshin Impact, but I need more details before making a purchase.

Am I old? I just want a tablet with keyboard

I used to have a tablet with a connector on the bottom to which a keyboard cover could connect. I only needed to charge the tablet and could use it as both tablet and discount chromebook whenever I needed. Does something like this still exist? The only thing I'm finding is detachable Bluetooth keyboards, which need to be charged individually. I loved the simplicity of just plugging in a single device with all the accessories I needed being connected directly to its single battery.

Hello! I need some advice about how to get this storage problem resolved

I just bought this device from a thrift store in hopes of making it to a casual gaming device. But this is getting in my way, it only has 746MB and then it has a NAND flash with more storage. The confusion is that this device is supposed to have 4gb of storage but it doesn’t. And I need help finding how and if I can get more storage or something?

It is a Proscan plt7223g and I haven’t found much about it so any info or support is appreciated. Thanks!

SAMSUNG vs APPLE

What would you choose among an iPad Air M2 256 GB VS Galaxy Tab S10+. I'm pulling my hair over this.

Price for both is almost the same here in INDIA.

Usecase- Drawing comics, making lots of loong notes, writing scripts, consuming media, occasional video editing.

Note- I have been avoiding the trap of Apple ecosystem and have an Android phone and a Windows PC. P.S. I heard Apple is quite locked when it comes to their apps, and most of them are paid.

I want to use the device for atleast 5 years and I hate LAGGING.

Also, is there another option I'm overlooking. I.e. Xiaomi or OnePlus.

Need some advice

Hi all.

I'm completely out the loop when it comes down to Tablets and what to buy.

I currently have a Kindle fire HD 10 For the kids to use but they are in need of an upgrade as it's crap basically but it served its purpose nicely.

I would like something with Android 14 and came across this.

https://amzn.eu/d/4VSnxel BESTTAB Tablet 10 Inch A20 Android 14 Tablets,24GB +256GB/2TB Android Tablets,5G WiFi,Gaming Tablet Octa-Core Processor,5000mAh,5MP+8MP,GPS,Tablet with Pen,Keypads,Mouse,

Just wondered your thoughts. Is it a decent upgrade.

As its for the kids I really don't want to spend a lot because then I'll be happy to upgrade again in a few years.

Any advice would be amazing.

Thanks all.

Pretty sweet deal on Tab A9+

Strings attached -- you (or someone you know) must be able to get military discount (otherwise is $50 more)

Just picked this up today. My last tablet was an absolute trash onn. tablet so I'm loving it.

$164 for the 8gb/128gb model seems like a steal though, yeah?

China Roms problem with Wifi routers/modems

So my biggest issues is with wifi compatibility with western WiFi routers due to restrictions on wifi channels.

I have google wifi pro and my Y700 just has terrible internet performance. I can't use GeForce now and get terrible latency with gaming. Using a different modem like a Chinese one no problems even hotspot with my google phone no problems.

Google WiFi pro is very limited with settings I even tried plugging in a Chinese wifi router to the Google WiFi pro and still have the problems.

Tablet for car HELP

Hey

Our family spend alot of time on the road. To make it a bit more pleasant for the kids (and ourselves) I want to buy two tablet for the backseat.

It obviously need to be able to download apps like Netflix/prime etc but I also want it to be able to have a HDMI input so that we can bring a Playstation or similar and connect to the screens. Is there any cheap option out there? 11-15” would suffice

Im open to tablets/displays with usb-c/hdmi dongle but obviously need to be HDMI input in lieu of output.

Thanks in advance

Kindle Sized (sub-8 inch) Tablet

So I have a Kindle Basic and I really like the form factor, it's small enough to easily fit in a bag but not so small as make reading on it a bit of a challenge. For comparison I have a Boox Palma which is about the same size as a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and I find that too small and a Samsung Tab A 8.0 (2019) and I find that too big.

I'm really looking for a six or seven inch tablet, not a phone or an 8 inch tablet. Does this exist or am I just in an insane niche here?
