This is the stuff of hukd-dreams. Am item nobody needs, possible misprice, leapt on, oos, back in stock, removed from basket, order gone through, the expectation of the order cancellation, fuming with Tesco, order dispatched, apologies to Tesco, post-purchase discount code, call to CS, discount applied
A rollercoaster and the reason we're all here
I'm going to put mine in the cupboard with all my other hukd tat.

Be interesting to see if Curry's & John Lewis will "price match" this deal :laughing:
This Tablet was £299 yesterday!

Good make I bought the 13 inch pro 2 at £200 from Amazon with projector
Great for movies

What a coincidence. I am still thinking about it. I see it at John Lewis for £249.99 and I have no doubt they would price match Tesco and give 2 years guarantee so would likely buy from them instead :smiley:

I've just submitted a price match request so let's see....

link please as i may be interested for projector functionality. thanks

Does anyone know when the Lenovo Tab 4 (and subsequent Pro) models will be released? I heard it isn't far off. Seeing this reminded me

Mispriced? Seems too good to be true! But tesco ship quickly... hmmm tempting!

Guessing amazon warehouse - cheapest "like new" now £300

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B00OHBE9FK/ref=sr_1_5_olp?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1493198627&sr=1-5&keywords=lenovo+2&condition=used

'It boasts a wide angle, 10.1"" Quad High Definition (QHD), In-Plane Switching (IPS) display, delivering crisp, bright visuals for a better viewing experience under all angles and ambient lights." in description

I've seen it yesterday in JL and its much thicker than my lenovo tab 10 first gen 3g

But it also states screen resolution as 1280x800 in the dropdown "Product Specifications" section

My friend got this tab. The sound quality on it is really good. She got from Argos for ~£250.

I'm getting this for myself now. :sunglasses:

Paid £250 last week! Hoping John lewis refund the difference using "never knowingly undersold".

bought mine for 180 after xmas , sound quality is good. battery life is fab. bought mine for showbox and kodi, whatsapp and messages..
slows down a bit compared to the tab2 but all in all very good unit.

actually mine was only the 16gb so this is a far better deal imo

Is this Tab 3 Plus far superior to the Tab 3?

I'm still using a Nook HD+ to watch Netflix in bed. Need an upgrade. If John Lewis matches this, I'll grab it.

Can anyone recommend a good case?

Does this model have a projector built in?

If I'll go to John Lewis and show them my order confirmation from Tesco - will they match the price instore? If not i will carry on with Tesco as it looks I have a valid extended warranty cover from Nationwide - no excess http://www.nationwide.co.uk/products/current-accounts/flexplus/insurances-and-benefits#xtab:warranty-products-covered

So what is the screen resolution?

Can this tablet be cast onto a tv i.e screen mirroring? I read in one forum saying it cant but surely it can? Does anyone know

Bosh.. Smoking deal! Would have opted for JL price match but had £28 of vouchers to use on clubcard so just paid £151 for this! Thanks Op..

I am very tempted by this tablet however a lot of user reviews online seem to mention "awful multimedia playback performance (out-of-sync in most apps)" is this still the case?

Is this out-of-sync media play back on YouTube etc. an issue?

Just Purchased thanks and delivery tomorrow

Can these be updated to the latest Android?

Shouldn't the resolution be:

2560 x 1600 (299 ppi)?

Is there a 1080p version too or is Tesco's technical description incorrect?

Is this better than my 2013 nexus 7?

Oh really no screen mirroring?

Buy a £20 chrome cast :smiley:

ah so tempting. I wanted this or a new laptop but didn't want to shed out 249 for it...at this price, its a steal!!

Can you use a Chromecast with the tablet? Does it have a normal USB Port?

Spoke to Curry's who said since the tablet doesnt have screen mirroring feature a Chromecast will not allow that to work

Anyone tried getting JL to price match?

Ordered. Thanks :smiley:

Waiting for response... takes up to 24 hrs.

Thanks OP

I ordered from Tesco, but also placed a claim with John Lewis. So if John Lewis says yes, will not collect my Tesco order and ask for refund.

I thought you meant to mirror the screen from the tablet to another. So the target needs an hdmi port not the source.

Really? Not heard that. Thought you just use the google home app and that takes care of it on any modern android device? Even my old 4 year old samsung tab supports it!

A bit of downside to me is that it lacks camera. Other specs are quite good. I think the screen resolution stated in the description is not correct. Well, you have to buy it to know it. Voted hot anyway.

It doesn't have a camera?

So much misinformation in this comment section. The technical specification on Tesco's website is also incorrect.
That is how it works. Curry's rep was most likely going off the technical specification which has no business stating it supports casting using third part devices such as chromecast since its not a lenovo product.


It has two cameras.

Camera (front-facing) Information
5MP

Camera (rear-facing) Information
13MP

For media consumption (via showbox etc) the screen and speaker along with the well designed stand are awesome especially for the price.

This is a QHD display so yes the bullet point spec is wrong on website.

Looks like it's just gone OOS. Will let me add to basket, but then won't allow me to checkout.

There is a cast (or mirror screen) option in the Display settings of the Yoga 2 HD tablet, pretty sure the same exists in the Tab 3.

By the way showbox always crashes on my Lenovo tablet within a few secs of opening the app, any idea what might be the reason ?

I was looking for a tablet for my wife. Her birthday is this weekend so ordered one. Thanks

Expired
"Sorry, we don't have enough "Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 10 Plus 10.1"" 3GB 32GB Android 6.0 Puma Black Tablet" items in stock right now. This item (s) has been added to your save for later basket. You can try to purchase this item again by reducing its quantity"

Oos now

Can you add a keyboard to this and used ms word and PowerPoint? Bought one, cheers

Still in stock for me.

Yes.

Oos

yeah looks oos

Cheers Pal

Did anyone receive a dispatch confirmation? My order still has 'confirmed' status.

Thanks. Been looking for ages for 10 inch tablet. This seems to be the one!

Just heard from John Lewis. They won't price match because it's OOS.

and price now gone up to £249

Guess it was a misprice. Well done those who got it. You snooze you lose...

Snap. Glad I ordered earlier. John Lewis order is going back to store.

Great tablet, great screen and perfect for movies. Odd shape, so cases are rubbish. Buy a pouch for taking it out and about. Battery life stonking, I had one of these. Downside you will be stuck with android 6 for a long while if not forever. Lenovo do not promise updates. But for £180 I would buy two and leave one in the loo.

John Lewis contacted Tesco about the misprice. SoTesco suddenly went oos and JL says can't price match due to oos. Then Tesco back in stock at full price.

Looks like this has also sold out at full price too then?

Mostly you get that email midnight.

Looks like so.. someone has bought it after price change too..

I got it at £179, been after a decent spec 10" tablet this seems ideal.

Bought this direct from Lenovo last week for £229. Battery life,sound and screen are all superb. Cheap price is due to Tab4 being released in May but the specs on the Tab3 are better anyway so well done to those who got it for £179.

Did Tesco confirm dispatch? My order is still 'At warehouse'.

Same, I had this before when ordering from Tesco, then later at night we should get dispatched email.

Now if Tesco don't honour the price that is a bit different and we could get a different email.

For those not wanting the stock rom ther eis a thread over XDA to instal LineageOS based on Android 7.1.x.

It will be the first thing I do on the tablet, if I get it! :wink:

As this is looking more like a miss price- hopefully you guys will get it it at £179. But what is the thoughts on the £249 price, is it worth it for that price?

odd that Tesco don't advertise it as being discounted at £249...

They do have the discount showing in the general search when you put in 'Lenovo Yoga Tab 3' in their search bar. It says the full price is £317.63, but that is scratched out in favour of the £249 price and says "save £68.73" in red text.

If Tesco is not honoring this deal by now we would have received the cancellation email. But by the looks of it I guess we would get the tablet.

oh right. Not showing on my phone.

Thanks op, ordered at 179

thanks op.... managed to order one as soon as post went live.

Well jl only wouldn't price match as tesco resolution was down as different. Typical.

Checked my Tesco direct account. Order cancelled :disappointed:

Mines still at processing

Mine is still processing too..!?

mine is 'still at warehouse' which basically means it's not going to be delivered as it was supposed to be delivered today. Gutted

Yeah mine is "at the Warehouse" so not shipped most likely it will be cancelled today. Oh well you win some, you lose some.

Oh well I will wait until this is on offer for about £200 and then buy again. This is definitely the tablet that I want.

I am still hoping :smile:

Yeah, I missed the offer from Lenovo over the Easter break for £229 considering there is development on this tablet, it means to me it adds longevity to it, because I don't expect Lenovo to update this tablet at all. For me I had an eye on this if it hit below £200 I would snap it. Now just got to wait.

Mine is "at the Warehouse" and Ive not received any emails regarding this order. Damn. Was going to be cheeky and ask if they could add the £20 off voucher code "I forgot" to include, now it looks like I wont be getting it. Fingers still crossed.

My payment transaction for this tablet is no longer showing in my Credit card, so I'm expecting a cancellation email today. :disappointed: Hopefully Lenovo will do another price offer on it to £229.

Mine is showing on my pending transactions on my bank account.

Mine is still at warehouse and processing stage. Was supposed to be ready for pick up today. Ridiculous.

I suspect they are mucking us about. I reckon they are going to make us hang on a bit longer then tell us something along the lines of "unfortunately despite our best efforts we have been unable to obtain stock of this item" or some other BS. Not the way to go about things, for sure.

Got the pending transaction back showing in my Amex account. Not sure if that means anything. I'm just going to not care anymore. If they ship it, it's ok with me. Just want them to make the decision soon. Instead of this wait.

Were you having it delivered to a Tesco store?

I chose to deliver to store.

Mine still says processing and at warehouse. I checked my credit card account and transaction is still showing up as pending. It was due to be delivered to store today, Dont know what to do.

Mine still processing too. Should have been delivered to store today.

I did too. Just curious of Vassy did because his order was cancelled a lot sooner

Just checked. Tablet still shown at warehouse but payment now taken from my bank account. No longer a pending transaction. Fingers crossed...

"payment now taken from my bank account"...ditto.
Don't see why they would take payment if they have no stock myself.
I was one of the first to buy, so that helps I guess.

Yep, payment taken from my bank account too yet still showing as pending at Warehouse...? Due to be in store to collect today..??

Mine was for store collection. Contacted customer service. They said this item is oos with the retailer 2 days back and they would not honor the deal. Awaiting refund.

I spoke to customer service on live chat earlier and they kept me waiting while they "spoke with supplier". Some hold up with supplier but should release today. Still shows as pending....

I bet they've had stock. Now they just wait until all the orders are cancelled by customers so they don't have to send an apology emails... good ol tesco

Are you sure, usually they don't charge until dispatch. So why are you waiting for a refund?

Money was taken from account as soon as order was placed. Its only Amazon who charge when dispatched.

My order is saying dispatched now, and there is a Yodel tracking code. I eat my words, it seems they have honoured the deal!

Mine also despatched

Mines dispatched too.. Happy chuffing days!

Mines dispatched & I defo ordered after you pal I'd query it

dispatched here as well...... many thanks op

Mines also dispatched, order placed 10:54am on the 26th

Mine despatched this morning too! They have to honour once despatched according to their T&C, cheers op!

In transit with courier..

Dispatched and with carrier. Happy bank holiday weekend! :wink:

Dispatched.

ordered very early...now Dispatched :smiley:

Dispatched.

'Awaiting collection'.

ready for collection :smile:

Just arrived - let's see if it's any good

Let me know pls if you like it after setting it up

Wow - first time I have seen one of these theads have a positive ending.

Well done you lot! gutted I missed out by 10 mins... anyway enjoy!

Ready for collection. Picking up now.

Thank you OP, Thank you tesco..

Awaiting collection

:smile:

I've not picked up mine yet. But do ensure it is the Yoga Tablet 3 Plus and not the Yoga Tablet 3.

Yeah ... get in there! :smile:

I'm picking mine up later.

I did set one up for my friend last week. After software updates ... 3 OTAs ... I think.
She paid £250 for it ...
I was really impressed with its sound.

Also I emailed about £20 off voucher code going round and they said they honour it. Get emailing people!

What voucher code?

Will do mate

so they agreed to refund you £20? What voucher code is that?

Just collected. Big thanks to ilieinuk who posted the deal. My wife will be happy to get the tablet as birthday present

TDX-KPYK
Just had the £20 refunded as well

Just had mine refunded as well

Who did you email?

Wow what did you write to convince them?

What's the email address and what did you write please?

I called, 03301234050, just be polite and say you forgot to use the voucher

Did the same received confirmation email for £20 refund. Will be paid back 3-5 days. Thanks op

Just rang them

Worked - £159 all in. Bargain.

I did it on live chat. Thank you :smile:

Well gone on live chat and it is a no for the voucher to be applied.

"I am sorry, your order was made before the E-coupon went live. I cannot honour this. If the price reduces within 30 days of purchase I can refund that but I am not able to add promotions."

Thanks I never would have considered asking for the £20 discount code to be refunded! This site is brilliant at times :smiley: Thanks again

Try again. You'll likely get another person who will

20 off applied over the phone many thanks!

Phone did the trick! Thanks

Collected today and just confirmed the £20 refund, huge thanks to OP and those who advised calling up to redeem the voucher!

done this and refunded£20...... you made this a real bargain now..... thanks

Cheers...all the best <3

Fair do's I just got the £20 discount too..! Absolute bargain thanks again Op.. :wink:

Did you phone for the £20 after or before picking up the tablet?

Cheers.

Do it asap.

i called before picking up

Thanks!

Damnn ... already picked mine up at 3pm.

I would still give it a whirl.. I pretended that I had put the code in and was confused why it hadn't been discounted.. Just be overly nice.. Worked a charm for me.. Email confirming it 2 mins after I put the phone down!

After, e-mail confirming rebate arrived within 10 minutes.

I just phoned them with the TDX-KPYK code... They're said it's not valid for the tablet.
She said it was valid only games and some other stuff but not the tablet.

Anyone got the exact t&c of that code?

Tell them code is located below tablet listing at special offers section

code is just below the item......I spoke to 3 different CS today and all 3 could see the code and were happy to help....

OK. Thanks ... give another go tomorrow.

We got the £20 refund too - woohoo! I really didn't think this deal would be honoured. So to get the tablet - and another £20 off - quite extraordinary! Thank you OP! And thank you daBluone for the tip about the discount code!

Any suggestions regarding tablet case?

Think I'm going to try this one >>>https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lenovo-YOGA-Yoga-Plus-Flip/dp/B015IZPTFC&ved=0ahUKEwiuyZHjk8jTAhXJL8AKHaRfDIAQFggcMAA&usg=AFQjCNEevVdPNVMsyCe3G1BmGwc7276ReA&sig2=UtMeGKOUqTK2sgI1nGoHDw

Same.! Screen protector too..

I'm afraid screen protector is not included and you pay extra for it.

I'm trying to access the case link but not able to find. Can someone plz provide link for case. Ta

Yep, managed to find it, ta

I've been looking for a replacement tablet for a couple of months. This ticks all the boxes and I've just got the £20 refund too. Thanks so much op and daBluone. Brilliant!

Got a refund of £20. Thanks to guy who mentioned the code

That JBL speakers on the Yoga can be use as bluetooth speakers too. Nice little feature. :sunglasses:

Happy days. Double discount and an awesome tablet. Good to hear Tesco are helping with £20 discount.

Or cast your phone to screen, nice feature.

Not tried that yet but will give it ago soon.

But my ZUK Z2 never sounded better. :wink:

Managed to get -£20 to work as well ... thanks everyone for their help.

On the off chance, IF anyone got an extra tablet and is happy to sell on for £179 please PM me. Cheers

Being nosey, but "3 different CS today and all 3 could see the code and were happy to help" ? Did you buy 3 of these on 3 separate accounts?

nope i only ever had bought one.....i got a terrible signal reception at home and call was dropped twice until the third time that stayed on as i went into the garden for signal :-). Tab was for my wife and she really loves the built-in stand feature......

Ahh, I see. Yes, that integrated stand does look quite handy.

This is the stuff of hukd-dreams. Am item nobody needs, possible misprice, leapt on, oos, back in stock, removed from basket, order gone through, the expectation of the order cancellation, fuming with Tesco, order dispatched, apologies to Tesco, post-purchase discount code, call to CS, discount applied
A rollercoaster and the reason we're all here
I'm going to put mine in the cupboard with all my other hukd tat.

The speakers are brilliant however when listening through headphones for some reason the sound is not loud and quality is rubbish. My phone is way better when I put the headphones in. Also big problem with Showbox app. Video playsback fine on it can hear normal sound but barely can hear when anyone speaks. Does anyone know how I can resolve the issue and whether anyone else has experienced that problem.

I don't really know because I haven't, and probably never will use mine with headphones, but on EU region devices there is supposed to be a headphone volume limit for mobile devices, mp3 players, tablets etc. From my limited experience it's set really low - it's only been a problem for me connecting an MP3 player to a car stereo. But sometimes there is a way to unlock the volume limit, like there was with my MP3 player. I don't have any idea if there is some sort of hidden unlock for this, but that is what I would be searching for. Failing that, maybe installing a third party firmware, which I think are available for this model, would be a solution.

Anyone had any joy with a OTG cable? I can connect to a PC using the USB-C but no joy with a standard OTG (micro USB) and a USB-C/micro USB adapter trying to connect a pendrive.

Not the best fit this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/192045770000

Will try and cut to size tomorrow.
