Shoppers ditch Apple for ‘essential’ device that’s a fraction of the price

The Lenovo Idea Tab is usually priced at £219.99 but has dropped by £40 as part of the deal.

You can get the device for £179.99 for a limited time on Amazon, which comes with a keyboard, Lenovo Tab Pen, and Folio Case.

This is a big difference to the iPad, with the iPad 11-inch, A16 model currently priced at £299 on Amazon, while the iPad Pro would set you back £944.

The 11-inch Lenovo tablet has an updated refresh rate for motion-blur-free images, which means you can study, stream and more without disruption in 2.5K display.

The tab’s its speed enables you to browse, read, or listen to music simultaneously without compromising performance.

You can also take advantage of writing tools to complete texts, rewrite or summarise, while Circle to Search helps you make instant marks on images or texts and save to JPG or PDF.

While the Gemini AI service helps you study more efficiently and enhance your learning with Google’s integrated solutions.

More than 400 shoppers have tried and tested the Lenovo Idea Tab, giving it an average rating of 4.6 stars on Amazon.

A number of users have compared the device to Apple products including the iPad.

One said: “I’m an Apple product lover and still find this my go too tablet for work/on the go. Literally used daily at work, it’s honestly an essential now. Slips easy into my work bag, light and so handy.”

Another wrote: “Excellent tab. Beats the iPad in my opinion. This is my second Lenovo tab, first one lasted 6 years with use every single day.”

While a third said: “This thing is so good it is better than an iPad and I’ve had two iPads, the sound on this is just incredible, it’s more than what I was looking for and a full entertainment system right in your hands for Netflix, Disney+ and Sky Go and the kick stand is so useful.”
