What we don't like about Lenovo Ideatab A2109 (1GB + 16GB)

  • Subpar TN display with poor color reproduction, grainy resolution, and extremely narrow viewing angles
  • Chunky and heavy design at 0.5 inches thick, making it less portable and tiring to hold for long periods
  • Poor camera performance, specifically low-frame-rate video recording and grainy still images
  • Hidden and difficult-to-access microSD card slot located under a hard-to-pry plastic strip
  • Loaded with a significant amount of pre-installed bloatware that can occasionally cause interface lag
  • Lack of standard accessories and support compared to more popular rivals like the Google Nexus 7

Verdict

The Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 is a 9-inch Android 4.0 tablet featuring a 1280 x 800 WXGA LED display and a sturdy brushed-aluminum construction. It is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor paired with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, which is expandable via a microSD card slot hidden behind a removable panel. Key advantages include its snappy performance for web browsing and gaming, the inclusion of a micro-HDMI port for external display connectivity, and a solid build quality at an affordable price point. However, the tablet suffers from several notable drawbacks, including a display with very poor viewing angles, a bulky and relatively heavy design, and mediocre camera performance that produces noisy stills and low-frame-rate video.
