Garmin Edge 1030

Advantages: With the merits is always simple, so:
1) good screen
2) good performance (better than competitors for such money (see comments)),
3) good (but not great) battery life,
4) great sound (2-and the speakers are driving!),
5) an interesting design (obviously inspired by the first Sony Xperia Z) and high-quality materials (metal and even the dangers of the glass behind),
6) there is even a flash for the camera (why would it be here? But there will not be too much extra).

Disadvantages: 1) The first thing to consider when buying - the tablet is very slippery. Well, just very, very much. And in the hands of slides and, for example, on the sofa well, just very cool slides.
2) Too soft power button. When you use more or less normal, but when carrying constantly inadvertently press.
3) And the USB charging port is also very "not hard". So once it was that it touched the wire and it just disconnected.
4) The central touch-button-fingerprint sensor is absolutely not conveniently located and therefore useless. It is clear that the whole design is sharpened to a horizontal orientation and it would look like a wall catcher from the side, but there is no sense in its current location. If there is no need to block the tablet - it is better to disable it altogether. And without it, not bad.

Comment: Everything is relative, so it makes sense to evaluate only in comparison with competitors (namely, 10 'FullHD), of which there are only two !:
1) Samsung GALAXY Tab A: Maybe in synthetic tests it gains the performance of “parrots” normally, but in subjective impressions it is much slower (I think this is due to the proprietary shell, which is slowed down or not designed for such a slow CPU). In addition, in his portrait orientation he has a very narrow frame on the sides of the display - it is simply impossible to hold the tablet with one hand! (And why do they just do that?)
2) Huawei M3 Lite 10 - a good competitor: Great sound - even better than this tablet. And I like the proprietary shell of Huawei more than the naked Android. But a weaker processor, it can be said quite "without stock."
Apple did not consider the purchase - not mine. Yes, and are more expensive.
And the rest of the tablets are not competitors at all: very poor performance (even worse than that of Huawei) + here and there the outdated version of Android. ASUS ZenPad 10 also did not consider, because I saw several reviews that his screen is not very responsive.

So it turns out that from good not very expensive Android 10 'FullHD tablets: either this Lenovo Tab 4 TB-X704L or Huawei M3 Lite 10. Both are good.

I do not regret buying.

Advantages: Games and applications can be downloaded to the internal memory as much as you want and more memory will remain. The brightest screen, juicy, with the Samsung tablet can directly argue. Games are such as "Modern Combat 5" and "World of Tanks" without glitches, quickly. The game about "Assassin" even goes well, but this game is too heaped up on the schedule - even the projections of shadows cast by the characters, and not just a dark spot under the character. Youtube, Yandex, Maps, Skype - everything that needs a tablet works wonderfully on it. Instant response when you press. The sound is loud from the speakers when you turn it on to full. In short everything is super.

Disadvantages: Disadvantages - What is made of glass - very bad - slides hard. I even bought a cover book for it — it doesn’t slide on the outside, but when I put it on the table so that I can watch the film — it’s not stable — if you swipe your finger from top to bottom to bring up the curtain, the tablet slides off every time. On the book, the recess is where to put the base of the tablet, but it does not save. This is the only trouble simply a flaw, which is why I just had soma damage to the cover book. And then another, but a tiny minus - the camera is not very good. Oh. The third disadvantage is that it is connected with the insertion of a sim card and a memory card - a very stupid decision on the part of the developers to make them on one tray, which is not even fixed inside the tablet, but is held up by the fact that the little cap is in it, which will also fly off over time.

Comment: In general - the impressions are more positive than negative. If they did not make glass, but with a rough surface it would be better. And the glass slides and maybe it will crack if dropped - I don't know - it feels that way on sensations. Performs all functions. For me the main thing was that the internal memory of 64 GB and the games are going well. In a word, if it were not for the glass that makes up the case, it would put all 10 points. Well 9 because of the camera and unsuccessful table for SIM cards and memory cards.

Advantages: Price!
The tablet is very fast.
Snapdragon 625 processor - no drawbacks Mediatek and Silicon Kirin
The screen is very bright.
All specifications at the height (all types of memory, 4G, GPS, optimal screen resolution and aspect ratio, decent sound)
It perfectly catches the Internet, both WiFi and 4G (everything is fast, it does not lose packets and does not hang)
I could not put the battery in a day of use, no matter how hard I tried.
The tablet was bought for work: surf the Internet, correspondence to Votsap and Telegram, a navigator, while it is consistently enough for two days (if you continuously go by the navigator, then a day).
There are no hellish heaps of superfluous software, like competitors (even there is no gallery, which will seem like a disadvantage to someone)
The best price / quality ratio among competitors!

Disadvantages: There are no white screen settings (it is possible that it is solved by third-party software), white is too cold for me. The claimed battery of 7000 mAh when measured by the device issued 6600 (as some competitors, apparently, this is it). The back panel - a tribute to fashion - glass, slippery and heavy (all the time I'm afraid of dropping and breaking). In my opinion, such devices are acquired for work, and not for Ponte, it is necessary to make corrugated plastic (cheaper, easier and more reliable). Charges quite a long time (not all night, of course, but about 4 hours)

Comment: I do not use the print scanner, so here I have nothing to say.
I'm not going to call him either.
In my copy nothing backlash, everything is adjusted exactly and pressed clearly.
I bought an excellent case and glass on Ali (although a film and glass could not be bought as a gift), it became much more convenient, the problem of the slippery back panel was gone. For this price, he has no competitors, so I put 5 stars, although there are drawbacks.

Advantages: Screen. The location of the speakers. Battery. No touch buttons below the screen. The presence of a rather big memory + slot for microSD. RAM is not close up and even with a margin. Optional LTE. And in general, the configuration is excellent, with a really good processor. There is a fingerprint scanner. Assembly. Design. Price.

Disadvantages: Despite the usb type-c standard 2.0 here, not even 3.0.

With an excellent, monolithic assembly, the backlash buttons look a bit strange (rocker, switch). Apparently, this is not a defect in the assembly.

I don’t know if Android 7 is common, but scrolling is not fast here. That is, it is impossible to “spin” the finger strongly so that the scrolling “runs” very quickly. In theory, this should be easily customized. Just do not know where. When viewing photos, insts, etc. poking fingers a little tedious :-)

It's funny to blame the tablet for the sound of the speakers. Probably, in the last ipad the sound is juicier.
Huawei praises cooperation with harman kardon. No, here you will not feel the bass. But the tablet gives a clear and really loud sound, you will not listen.

If there were cool cameras here, as in flagship smarts, then the tablet would cost thousands at 6-7 more, I'm sure. Just what is the point to put in a regular 10 inch tablet heaped cameras? If it was some kind of pro with special software, or a type of flagship with a 7-8 inch screen. And so for Skype, etc. I do not need more, I think. The rear camera has autofocus, but it is slow. Again, suitable for video communications and programs for scanning codes. There is a flash. And in the dark and cameras for the price of this tablet with noise removed.

I would like NFC, I guess.
And the IR port would be useful as a remote control, first of all. You can't even meet him now in smartphones, but something useful.

All these shortcomings for myself take in quotes. They are absolutely not significant for me.

And the main common drawback of all android devices is non-durable support for updates. In this sense, Apple has a huge advantage, because they very long even tighten very old devices, as if someone did not belong to this brand.

Comment: The tablet was bought as a media device: Internet, YouTube, watching movies, applications. For these purposes, the tablet fits perfectly.

LTE has not tried yet, but the wifi device catches perfectly and does not lose. WiFi dual band, works with all standards, including AC.

I did not find any glitches and hangs in the software.

They wrote that big toys on it normally go.

A backdrop made of unmarked softtach or rubber would be more practical. But usually all immediately buy covers. Smart covers for this model abound.

Prints the screen collects like everyone else. Oleophobic coating is designed to provide ease of removing dirt and fingerprints. Here it is normal.

Lenovo installed here the very configuration that many want to see not in a top-end device, but in a strong middle-class one without big compromises. It has exactly what you need for the pleasure of use. Finally, manufacturers have read reviews and suggestions on the web.

1. I am not an expert on QHD, 2K screens on such displays. The reviews say that the difference between FullHD and higher is not noticeable. And the battery is more discharged higher resolution. As for me, the screen is gorgeous. The only pity is that there is no possibility for precise adjustment of brightness. Or I did not find?
2. 64 GB of memory - the optimum minimum. 16 and even 32 is no longer an option for modern parameters.
3. 4 GB of RAM - again, the optimum minimum for the android. 3 GB - the device will be already coughing up.
4. Support for memory cards should be necessary, as here.
5. Not gigantic, but with adequate battery capacity.

At the end of 2017 and the beginning of 2018 at the price-filling-quality for this tablet, there are simply no competitors. I mean it is normal middling. No annoying shoals like "oh sorry, that is not ...", "damn, not enough ...".

I summarize: A very cool tablet!

P.S. I hope that up to 8 Android will at least update it. Moreover, 7ka here is almost pure, as I understand it. Although, 7ka comfortable, I like it.

Advantages: - design, appearance - for my taste, very pleasant (I have white)
- work speed
- the screen is super (very clear, juicy and bright)
- battery (lasts for 2-3 days of office work)
- microSD
- SIM + fast LTE
- almost nothing extra is not pre-installed by the manufacturer - you can say, a bare android, and it pleases

Disadvantages: - Oleophobic is rather weak, the finger slides not perfectly after my LG G2
- in lists, scrolling does not have inertia (you swipe with your finger - and you expect the list to scroll by itself for some time, but it wasn’t there) - again, I got used to this on the LG G2
- it will not work to call on it - there is no full-fledged GSM-module; but SMS accepts
- USB - normal 2.0, although TypeC
- no fast charge
- sound of norms, but no more
- bluetooth is eating too much
- heavy in one hand for a long time you can not hold (or I should go to the gym)

Comment: All of these shortcomings - nonsense compared with the merits. Long chose between Huawei and Lenovo - and the speed won the sound :)

Additionally, I recommend to purchase:
- original Lenovo cover
- Logitech K380 keyboard
- Rombica M3 adapter

Advantages: Good design
Thin
SWB type C
Convenient to use in the family - switching between users
Sound
Fully worthy of charge
A sufficient amount of permanent memory + you can insert a micro SD.

Disadvantages: Lyufyat buttons
Strange fingerprint scanner. It works 9 out of 10 times. Of course, it depends on how you attach your finger, just the area of ​​the scanner is not great.

Comment: I use a few days. Considered a model with a similar cost to the hawaii.
I thought better of it in time, because at the moment I don’t see the point of taking a tablet with a RAM less than 4 GB and a constant less than 64 (actually 51 GB). So, I don’t see any competitors for this cost (except for nouneums from the Middle Kingdom). In tanks it gives out on average 38 fps. I do not know much or little with such iron, but I am pleased with the tablet. Recommend.

Advantages: Good screen, bright, contrasting.
Wifi 5Ghz-433Mbit / sec.
4GB random access memory.
Modern processor.
It looks beautiful.
Good sound in headphones.
Good battery.
4G.

Disadvantages: Sound from the speakers to 3+.

Comment: In general, a smart and modern tablet.
Almost naked android, with a bunch of pre-installed software from Google and Yandex.

Very pleasant to use.
For three hours of settings, views of YouTube and picking in software and the Internet took 20% of the battery.
