Just updated mine today, following an alert that an update was available, and now having problems with display. Lenovo splash screen flickers behind whatever app I'm using. and if I set brightness to maximum,screen flickers constantly. Just wondered if this has happened to anyone else.

current price is £119.99 ;; seems the offer is expired?

Can anyone recommend a child friendly case, and screen protector please?

How is this different to a TAB 2?

specs wise is this tablet better or argos.co.uk/pro…618 ? anyone have any reviews of the differences between the specs and which one is better?

I wouldn't recommend buying this Lenovo tablet. I have one and it started playing up just after the 1 year guarantee had passed. The keyboard sometimes started jumping up and down at the bottom of the screen, whether you're trying to type or just reading, which is really annoying. It sometimes won't turn on, the brightness of the screen can't be turned down anymore which hurts my eyes after a while and the volume is very temperamental. Also the battery doesn't last long, but takes hours to charge. Lastly, it sometimes reboots itself randomly for no reason. This was my first and last Lenovo purchase.

Any custom roms available?

Anything for a pence to take it to £100?

Was going to buy one for my son but he needs a thick rubber case and I've trawled the net but I've been unable to find one :angry:

Sad to see tablets haven't improved since the nexus 7 2014 or that tesco one, yet just as expensive.

I have one of these, quite responsive, decent screen and good battery life. I use for Netflix/Amazon video, perfectly good for that. Not a top spec Ipad thats for sure but it is £100

So I've just bought one of these as a refurb from Argos and its locked to a previous owners account. Whilst its been reset it won't let me log in and set up unless I enter previous owners credentials. So much for refurbished. Does anyone know how to get round this or do I need to sent it back?

My missus has got one..battery life excellent. Screen is ok just photos on background look pixelated. Good value for everyday use. Screen not as responsive as a Samsung etc good value at under £100

Look at the back of a 1p coin - it says ONE PENNY not ONE PENCE! PENCE is bleeding PLURAL!

This is the low spec non HD model with 1.3 GHz processor. Earlier in the year I got the Tab2 HD 1.7 GHz for £120 (currently ridiculously £199.99 so probably the next 1/2 price offer) when they were selling the Tab2 non HD for £99.99. May be worth waiting for the Tab2 HD or the Tab3 HD to come down (or even the Tab4).

Have stopped the 5p trick

anyone found a decent hard case for this tablet ? trying to find one for my kid now as he's affraid he will drop it :smile:

*cough*

Pence is only the collective plural.
Pennies is the plural of Penny.

I've one of these and I think it's decent tablet for the price. However, display is not full HD and there is a considerable quality drop when compared to my old Toshiba full HD tablet which I bought couple of years ago (for £150). Unfortunately I couldn't find a decent full HD tablet under £150, so settled with this one. 2GB memory is good enough and I'm playing clash of clans mostly and battery last for about 2-3 days (for 2-3 hours daily use).
Hope this is helpful to someone. Voted hot!

Looks like a great deal and good size screen. Does anyone know if this is able to use Netflix offline? i.e. Download shows to watch on the go? Thanks

The battery is crap. It's heavy. Make sure you buy a decent case where the volume buttons are exposed otherwise the volume will be up and down due to stupidly positioned buttons. And yes i have one.

Regarding getting the cost over £100 to get the £10 voucher, I can confirm that the cost of a carrier bag does count towards the total. I reserved the tablet online (didn't pay in advance). Went to local store (Netherfield, Nottingham), and went to the machine to pay. Machine asks if you need any carrier bags, so just selected one at 5p, total payment £100.04. Item arrived at collection point, £10 voucher shows at bottom of receipt. Watch out for the expiration date though, it's only got about a month on it. If anyone is interested, this tablet is still on the Argos eBay page, refurbished model for £74.99 (Link) . Was torn for a bit but decided to go with new instead.

Thanks for posting, I mulled this over last time it was on at this price, and it went back up to £119.99. Figured it would come down again at some point. Heat added. Would just like to find a decent case with integrated keyboard now, so off to eBay it is. If anyone can recommend anything I'd appreciate it.

same have older version its amazeballs.

My daughter has the older smaller model and it's been perfect for her.

Pretty good for a 2GB tablet. I had display ghosting issues with a slightly older model after a couple of weeks from Argos. But refunded no problem. Hope this one is better!

Poor screen so I returned mine. Will look for a full HD screen

I've got a 128gb card in mine

I wouldn't pay over £100 for it. Battery life is fine.

Was about to get a FireHD8 anyone able to provide any info on whihc would be better this or fire?

Don't know what happened to my reply to umm3's question - system seems to have had a fit!

Seems like a biteable price - thanks OP and jimbo!

anyone can comment on battery on these ? my kids mainly play minecraft and their fired hd 7 - I assume this will be better on battery ?

Just be aware this isn't a full "HD" screen – the descriptions can be misleading. Resolution of 1280 x 800 on a 10.1" screen results in a relatively low pixel density, thus it won't be the sharpest screen. However, it means the battery will last longer. Swings and roundabouts.
