Verdict

The Lenovo Tab 4 8 WiFi (3GB + 16GB variant) is a compact, family-oriented tablet featuring an 8-inch HD IPS display with 1280 x 800 resolution and a slim 8.2mm profile. Powered by a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon quad-core processor and enhanced with 3GB of RAM, it offers smooth performance for everyday tasks and multimedia consumption. Key highlights include front-facing dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos for immersive audio, a long-lasting 4850mAh battery providing up to 20 hours of general usage, and a dedicated multi-user mode with individual profiles. While it provides excellent value and solid build quality, common drawbacks include a dated Android operating system, relatively low-quality 5MP rear and 2MP front cameras, and a lack of fast charging or 5GHz dual-band WiFi support.
