Third-party reviews

What we like about Lenovo Yoga Tablet 8 3G (1GB + 16GB)

  • Exceptional battery life that often lasts between 13 to 18 hours
  • Unique ergonomic design with a cylindrical grip for easy one-handed holding
  • Built-in sturdy aluminum kickstand for multiple viewing modes (Hold, Tilt, Stand)
  • Front-facing dual speakers with Dolby Digital Plus enhancement
  • High-quality IPS display with good color reproduction and viewing angles
  • Support for expandable storage via a microSD card slot
  • 3G connectivity with voice calling capabilities (in the 3G-enabled model)

What we don't like about Lenovo Yoga Tablet 8 3G (1GB + 16GB)

  • Heavily modified Android skin (Lenovo UI) that removes the app drawer
  • Low screen resolution (1280 x 800) compared to competitors like the Nexus 7
  • Subpar camera performance, especially in low-light conditions
  • Noticeable lag during multitasking or when switching screen orientation
  • Limited software updates with original OS being older (Android 4.2 Jelly Bean)
  • Significant amount of pre-installed bloatware taking up internal storage
  • Reflective screen can be difficult to view in direct sunlight

Verdict

The Lenovo Yoga Tablet 8 3G is an 8-inch Android 4.2 tablet featuring a unique cylindrical spine that houses a large 6,000mAh battery and a built-in aluminium kickstand for multiple viewing modes. It is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core MediaTek processor with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD up to 64GB, and features a 1280 x 800 IPS display. Main pros include its exceptional battery life of up to 18 hours, ergonomic grip, and integrated stand that facilitates hands-free use. However, it suffers from a relatively low-resolution screen compared to its peers, modest processing performance that can lag under heavy use, and a heavily modified user interface that some users find cluttered.
