The design makes you assume that the performance is at least decent enough, but it's as good as any cheap tablet on the market, it struggles even at the lockscreen.
Sam, 13 Mar 2021I used to had this Yoga Tab 3 when i was younger. It's the most powerful tech in my home ... moreHi sam:) im having trouble in my tab and i think we are using the same thing ig ? Im in version 4.2.2 rn and i want to upgrade it till ver5, is it possible? Im hoping for ur response. Thank you so much sam and have a great day!
This thing is so slow that it almost feels like running windows 10 on a hard drive. Not recommended for anything but youtube watching, and even with that buy with caution. If you have this as your main tablet, have in mind that almost everything above 100 dollars is going to be an upgrade.
I used to had this Yoga Tab 3 when i was younger. It's the most powerful tech in my home (we're still using Nokia and Phillips handphone that time)
This one of the worst tab in my life it very slow and it's processor is 210snapdragon which makes very outdated and Android update at all👿👿👿👿👿👿👿😡😡😡😡😡😡. It lags so much opening about 5to7sec like others told and my swear that PLZZ don't buy this for studies or any other purpose network is also a lot.This like a wasting your precious money 💰💰💰💸💸💸💸 in dustbin.First day I thought it will be good device for me but when I open contact rename some contacts it show unfortunately stop and this lenovo devices makes fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥 in my brain and heart that so much aggressive I can't control it but when I ask my father and begged on his feet for asking other device but they don't care about me. This makes me so much rage and mad.ok so I decided to adjust with this tab but it again it disappoint me because when I go to contacts I write one big name for example Mohandas karam chand gandhi it shows errors 😭😭😭😢😢😢.but its only one advantage is 🔋 battery which is outstanding I will give 5out 5star but it is not fit for this generation
Storage shortage also there in this tab .when the parents are buying one somedevice for his son or daughter for his study purpose or playing purpose the shopkeeper use clever mind and fool our parents to buy this device which worth 16000rs which is a very huge amount but for others it will cheap for them. This was the first costliest thing my dad buy for me. The end😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭💸💸💸🔥🔥
Ken, 10 Sep 2020My yoga tab is old now and I want to exchange it for a new one How do I do that?You can sell your tab on cashing . After that amount can be use for buy new one.
Lonewolf123, 21 May 2019This tab is the WORST tech I have ever had, Never buy it!! I used this tab for nearly 2 years,... moreI so have to agree,as by the time Lenovo had decided to upgrade the successful yoga tab 2 to yoga tab 3, you would fully expect lenovo to arm their yoga 3 Tablets with 2GB
of RAM minimum, instead the woefully inadequate 1 GB for which causes all the speed & loading problems, but they have put 2GB of RAM in later yoga 3 models so for anyone thinking of buying a yoga 3, check the specifications before making a purchase ...
My yoga tab is old now and I want to exchange it for a new one
How do I do that?
So sorry I did not read lonewolf123 before purchasing this very upsetting and useless yoga tab 3. He said it all.
This tab is the WORST tech I have ever had, Never buy it!! I used this tab for nearly 2 years, and this the worst tab, dumb Lenovo. Broke at least 4 of these out of frustration.
1) Performance: Its terrible, lags everywhere and everyone, opening up a app will take you nearly 5-to the max 7.7secs which is unbearable
2) Speed: Damn slow, download and uploading, browsing,even typing and not to forget; gaming
3) Battery-life: Well surprisingly, I would only give a good 5 🌟 at this!! It will last you a full day without recharge, even if you heavy gaming(although it's impossible), watching movies, calling, or browsing
4) Connections: It is OK, it doesn't support 5G, and more horrible than my iPhone 5S at connecting to Wi-Fi or data connectivity strength at 4G
5) Screen(resolution): Good, I watched plenty of movies in this and it's excellent!! Maybe a 4 🌟 BCS you can't be seeing a movie in the day, which I can comfortably do on my iPhone 5S
6) Audio: * I would seriously be surprised how they would provide such a disastrous Tablet with Exceptional speakers and headphone audio, phenomenally stupid
7) Strength: The most weakest tab I have ever dealt and used, so brittle that a accidental drop from my elbow and it's spider-web crack on the screen, crap
8) Camera: Nope!! Not good, only 8mp and a rotating one? Never ever. I broke all 4 tablets and cameras just by twisting it a few times, and it's broken off easily
9) Gaming: *PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS TAB!!!! IT WILL MURDER YOU TO DEATH!!! I have played Nova Legacy, Plants Vs Zombies, Clash-Of-Clans, Temple-Run, Modern-combat 5|Blackout and I have broken every tab only from playing all these games. It's lags like Hell!! It's connectivity strength is -6 🌟 rating!!! Its heats up and shuts down everything evertime!!! Graphics will spoil your eyes man, it's terrific!!
Well, that's you have it!!! A review from a person using this tab for 2 years!! The most trustworthy review you can ever find in the world!!! Lenovo is the worst company to buy from!!! If you want to save your precious money/time/ health, then please Don't buy this tab, I am telling for your sake, I had suffered enough and more with this tab and I don't want you guys to suffer like me.....
Maybe the best thing you can buy for watching videos and listening to music for these money. Everything else in the device is RETARDED - the chipset, the performance - even in browisng, not to mention gaming, the memory is small too. The battery life and the camera aren't so good either. At least it has a 6.0 update which I advise you to enable. If you are not a guy who ONLY watches videos and listens to music you mustn't buy it.
Ssy, 30 Sep 2017Does its otg supportYes it supports otg
N good for web browsing
It plays youtube at 30 fps no frame drops upto 720p
Supports keyboard n mouse use a otg with usb hub
Don't use memory card for apps there is some problem regarding mmc as it randomly malfunctions in tab(i have a Samsung evo card n its a class 10 card i used in camera so card is good)
Also don't game on it
Can read manga tho
N there r 2 versions available 1gb n 2gb random acess memory
Msm 8909 chipset
Don't jailbreak since its not worth the effort (i did it very very few improvements n more battery drain n other random errors pop time to tine)
Those who haven't purchased this please do yourself a favour n stay away from lenovo yoga tab 3 8m or yt3850m. N welcome =)
I have the Lenovo YT3 850M 8 inch 16GB 2GB w/ 4G variety with Android Marshmallow for only USD190 ;-) Sadly, it's the end of the line for this model, NO MORE FW UPDATES ! I checked with Lenovo website. I guess I might as well disable FWUpdateOTA to save battery. The latest update was still March 1, 2017 so I downloaded Dr. Web and subscribed to Dr. Web Security Space. It came with Qualcomm Processor MSM8909. I also enabled Work Profile via Island by Oasis Feng (Greenify) so it acts like a sandbox where I could run questionable apps like Social Media apps. I even have TWO VPNs enabled, in both Personal partition where everything is and Work partition (my sandbox where I hide/freeze/run apps). As it is now, this tablet went beyond my expectations. I also have ADM app so downloading is fast (just keep your Internal Storage free !!!). It's great and I'm loving using it to read books, watch Fox+, HBO Go, etc., It has Dolby app as a System app, so music gets louder. It has App Ops in Device Settings/Security. Altogether taken, a winner as it is. *** For Regular Users of Android Devices (or as the saying goes... ) ― "You Only Root When OTA FW Updates Stop Coming.". This device ceased having OTA updates after 3.1.2017, is therefore a strong candidate for rooting to further enhance capability, keep abreast with the ever dynamic Android system, learn and be amazed how far your Android device can go.
Only these Android devices, can in fact be compared to the Rover that's still ticking and humming in that desolate terrain in Mars, still transmitting images and sending data. The Rover that we thought we'd see last moving away and supposedly done, has even gotten a slight jolt of software update to improve its communication. Maybe even more updates...
Just to say that the tablet is also offered with 2GB RAM.
Ls Zhet, 26 Oct 2017Hi, can I ask some question? I am planing to buy a tablet, only for movie and YouTube. my only... moreI also want yo buy for same can you suggest if you had buy
dis123, 23 Sep 2017No,it does not support calling.Although in its features,it is written that it is a calling tab... moreYou can use it for calling, by using an internet phone number through Talkatone or 2nd line
Ls Zhet, 26 Oct 2017Hi, can I ask some question? I am planing to buy a tablet, only for movie and YouTube. my only... moreFor Youtube and Media consumption you won't have any kind of lag or framedrops since that would be very light use. but, if you would watch a 4k video probably it would lag, for 720p and 1080p. you won't have any problems at all.
Pros:
-Amazing design and build quality
-Huge battery
-Pretty decent audio
-The ability to use the rotating stand is really great
Cons:
-Tiny amount of RAM
-Only HD res. wich makes the screen quality bad
-It never gets any updates
-Camera is pretty bad, I have a phone that costs half the price and takes MUCH better pics
-The metal stand makes it heavy and uncomfortable to hold
-Only 16GBs storage (and you get to use much less,6 or 8 GBs)
If you care about design and you want a tablet for light use (chat,FB,YT,browsing) it's worth buying. If you need a fast device for gaming, movies, multi-task and good screen and storage forget about this tablet.
After last update sd card function not working properly.
i love my lenovo tab3 8 it works so good i recommend it for u.it has everything u need.
