Lenovo TAB A8 Review
Source: Slashgear English Archive.org version
While the Lenovo TAB A8 doesn't offer anything in particular that makes it stand out from the crowd of competing slates, it has a lot of good things going for it, battery life arguably being at the top of them all. The design is solid but light, and the display -- while not the sharpest out there -- is bright and suitable to the needs of casual users.

80% Lenovo A8
Source: Laptop Mag English Archive.org version
At $179, the Lenovo A8 stacks up well against other 8-inch Android tablets, as it offers longer battery life and a richer and more accurate (albeit dimmer) screen. With any budget tablet, you have to temper your expectations, as the A8 had trouble on more demanding activities, such as 3D games. But if you're looking for an inexpensive and portable Android tablet, the Lenovo A8 is a solid option.

Lenovo A7000 review – high-performance and wide variety of features packed in a 5.5-inch mid class phablet
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
Lenovo A7000 is a good example of what affordable phablet models should have. Along with the 5.5-inch IPS HD screen, the model pleased us with it’s high graphic and computing performance, thin body (only 8 mm), and wide variety of software features, making this device even more lucrative. Lenovo’s user interface has once again proved that it is one of the richest, when it comes to pre-installed apps, modes, features, settings etc. Having Android 5.0 Lollipop as the OS on the device, we can’t have any remarks in the software department. The battery, with 2900 mAh capacity, also permed really good. The only result that we can consider bad is the one in our 3D gaming test, but aside from it everything else was great. Perhaps the camera is the most disappointing part of the phone. Even though it got somewhat acceptable results in our synthetic tests, we weren’t happy with the sample photos. The display on the other hand, performed very good. It has 97% sRGB color gamut coverage, leading to vivid and colorful images, and also lack of PMW across all brightness levels.

Lenovo A6600 Plus Review
Source: Yugatech English Archive.org version
With the rise in hybrid SIM trays on newer devices, the Lenovo A6600 Plus has the advantage in providing dual-SIM connectivity and expandable storage with their dedicated slots, along with a good screen to body ratio and stock Android Marshmallow OS on board. The quad-core CPU, 2GB RAM, and 16GB internal storage are good enough for light to moderate tasks.

Lenovo A5 Review: Is it worth buying?
Source: The Mobile Indian English Archive.org version
To conclude, the Lenovo A5 comes with an impressive compact form factor, good display, average camera, Android 8.1 Oreo and decent battery life. However, the smartphone does not bring anything new to the table and it lacks in performance too with an old chipset. So, if you are planning to buy a new standard designed budget smartphone with decent specs, then this can be considered as an option. At this price point, the phone faces a stiff competition with the Xiaomi Redmi 6A, Realme C1, Infinix Smart 2, and Yu Ace.

Lenovo A6 Note First Impressions: Can it be a worthy challenger in Rs 8,000 segment?
Source: The Mobile Indian English Archive.org version
Lenovo A6 Note is quite a standard device in the budget segment. The phone lacks a punch when it comes to innovations or aggressive pricing. As for the competition is concerned, it will have a tough time competing with the likes of Infinix Hot 8, Xiaomi Redmi 7, Samsung Galaxy M10, Realme C2 and Nokia 3.2.

Comment

Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.

In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.

In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.

5.00:

It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.

8.00:

Large smartphones and a few small tablets are available for this display size. Unlike most smartphones, you can see more on the screen, more details and use larger resolutions. Such formats are better for people with defective vision. However, such devices are no longer easy to fit in a pocket, and they are probably not quite light either.

No weight comment found (one expected)!


80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
