Saw this on the Argos website. Buy this tablet with case for £109.99. On the Argos website it has just the tablet (same model) for £129.99.
I think that's an added bonus :smiley:

Looking at the Lenovo website it says Android 6 to be confirmed. Their forum says some people had an OTA update to 6 but it was unstable. Would need someone who has one to confirm.

Just reserved one at my local,had the 1st gen and loved it. Hopefully this will be even better. Heat.

Given that my Google Nexus 2013 was stable on lollipop and has video issues on marshmallow, I'd be happy with lollipop and wary of upgrading an older device to the new version.

Hmm, do I buy this or don't I?
Urgently need to replace an old laggy Nook HD. Yes, I'll be taking a drop in screen resolution by buying this, but would the CPU performance of these Yoga tabs be markedly better than an aging dual core OMAP 4470 with 1GB of RAM? These Yogas have Snapdragon 212 processors in them which makes me a little worried it won't be much different.

I was in a similar position with my Mum who had a Nook HD+ that's not been behaving that well, I did look at this tablet which is quicker than the old Nook but didn't feel much of an upgrade in general. In the end I opted for a Grade A Galaxy Tab S2 from Cex for £200 (now £180 although out of stock), it looked unused, all the accessories were untouched and it comes with a 24 month warranty from Cex. I realise it's technically second hand but it's a great upgrade to the Nook HD+ as it has a beautiful screen (the budget tablet screes were a step down from the Nook HD+'s 1080p screen) and quick internals so my Mum has ended up using it far more than she did the Nook.
At the moment the Android tablet market seems almost entirely budget tablets now, the Tab S2 is now being discontinued with no direct replacement.

Had the 10" version but found the 720p resolution quite bad.

Had endless battery/power drain, screen and software problems with my Tab 2 and zero support from Lenovo; they couldn't have cared less.
Hopefully the Tab 3 is better for anyone who considers it.
