Verdict

The Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus is a premium 8-inch Android tablet featuring a sleek dual-glass design and a sharp 1920 x 1200 IPS display with 283 ppi. Under the hood, it is powered by a 2.0GHz octa-core Snapdragon 625 processor paired with 3GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD. Key strengths include its vibrant Full HD screen, loud dual front-facing speakers with Dolby Atmos support, and the inclusion of a fingerprint reader for secure, multi-user profiles. However, users frequently note that the fingerprint scanner can be unreliable, the 16GB of storage is quite limited for modern apps, and the glass-heavy build is prone to scratches and fingerprints without a protective case.
