But the Lenovo Tab M8 HD LTE can be and arguably is in fact surprisingly good for that incredibly low price point, currently marked down from an original MSRP of $209.99. Yes, you can get an HD display (with an exact resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels), standalone 4G LTE support, a battery life (officially) rated at a reasonable 12 hours on a single charge (in continuous web browsing), and even a premium metal back cover for just one Benjamin for a presumably limited time.
As far as we can tell, the tablet doesn’t have security patches guaranteed going forward either, which is… pretty bad. It’s also not great that you’ll get a modest 2GB RAM and 32GB internal storage space from your “new” 8-inch device, but at least there’s a microSD card slot allowing you to “fix” the latter inconvenience.
At the end of the day, you’ll need to decide for yourself if the admittedly major flaws of the Lenovo Tab M8 HD LTE outweigh its equally big affordability, connectivity, build quality, and battery life advantages. You may have to make your decision fast, though, as this totally unique and unprecedented deal is unlikely to last long.
