Excellent for the price

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 3, 2016

It may not be the fastest machine, but this is a well built good quality product. Reviews are mixed for this. I don't play games, I use it to teach from with my notes on it, and work in 9 different countries, this is a good strong product. Screen is good quality, might not be as sharp as an Ipad but this is alot cheaper and I think a better build quality, I personally don't have a problem with the screen, some reviews are fussy... The battery lasts for ages. Easerly plugs into pc to transfer files. I use Linux and it a doddle. Speakers are clear. Good for watching movies. No regrets, good machine for the price. Very happy. Good delivery and well packaged. If you are a heavy game user this might not be for you. Great proffessional looking and feeling product.

Awful power supply.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 27, 2016

Verified Purchase

I'll start with the positives: It has a large clear screen, it's easy to hold, the web browser is reasonably stable.

Negatives:
The USB power supply had a very wobbly cable so bad I've never gotten the battery to charge above 14% - it can't keep the tablet working reliably when plugged in, forget using it unplugged - I will be returning it for this reason. The cable is also far too short unless you want to charge it on the floor. The one for my camera is far more reliable.

The touch screen is very poor for a new device (factory sealed box). It frequently fails repeatedly when attempting to select things, selecting the right bit of text to edit is often irksome. The keyboard is big and easyy to use but covers so much of the large screen it's hard to use the tablet in landscape orientation.
You
can download files but can't name them, and it comes with no file manager - this seems quite stupid to me. The browser is unable to store web orders etc which is not great for online shopping.

Too heavy, easy to nreak screen, amazing battery life.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 5, 2016

Its not very quick. It doesn't have enough memory and its heavy so more likely to be dropped and when you do the glass cracks easily (others had same problem). That said, the camera takes good photos, the screen quality is clear and the battery life is totally amazing. You literally can use it all day and in to the late night streaming videos on You Tube.

You can play games like minecraft on it fine and my 7 year old loved it until it broke. It fell off a shelf whilst she was getting a drink and it hit her knee and the glass smashed. It only fell about 18 inches. Seems a little weak. I think it is because it is so heavy.

The stand is a good idea but a little sharp. The micros SD is useful and claims to only take 32GB but I put 64 GB card in mine and it worked fine.

I returned the tablet because the quality of the item didn't met my expectation. But I gave the purchase a 4 star rating because the supplier was very accommodating and polite.

Very usable and fantastic battery life

First of all, obviously this isn't an iPad and id you're expecting something as smooth and polished as something costing three times as much you'll be disappointed. However for general use as a media player and web browser, it's absolutely fine. The slightly strange form factor only takes a few seconds to get used to and after a while you'll find it more comfortable than a flat tablet, especially as the base/handle contains most of the weight.

It's that base that contains the Yoga's two party tricks. First of all the kickstand. It's not actually as useful (to me at least) as it could be, it holds it almost vertical in the furthest-out position which makes typing a pain, but in the lower positions it feels a bit shaky. The other one is a bit more subtle but is the Yoga's real advantage - it holds the batteries, which, not being restricted to being as flat as possible, have a truly awesome life. For reading and web browsing you can easily get over 8 hours out of a charge, HD video chops that down a fair bit, and higher-powered games might only get you 4 or 5 hours, but that's still double what I've seen on any other tablet at any price.

At the price I really don't think anything can possibly beat it.

Like the quirky design bit irritating to get working properly

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 28, 2017

Verified Purchase

Bought this for my mum to take on holiday. I like the quirky design and the swivelling camera. Feels nice and comfortable to hold. Arrived with Lollipop and received a minor update as soon as I turned it on. However, I had to go to System Update before the update to Marshmallow would come down. The stock email app was a pain to set up on Office 365 and MS Outlook app kept failing. I performed a system reset and an extra update came down for Android System Web Access installed and Outlook works perfectly now. Unfortunately the stock wallpapers are awful (the one with the puppets is just creepy) and there's no single colour options.

tablet with a difference

Does what it says on the box very good easy to learn updates almost by itself thought avoided the system update in view of comments on line.like the built in stand .I especially bought it to view my photos as i am a keen photographer the photo system is actually a bit clunky, but they look good on screen.

Great low-priced tablet

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 9, 2016

Verified Purchase

Upsides: Great for the price and the hinge is superb. Battery life is pretty exceptional and the wifi works very well throughout the house (other tablets have struggled). Good sized, clear screen

Downsides: Processor can be a bit slow sometimes (what do you expect for the price). The on/off button can be a bit easy to catch when moving the tablet around.
