Is there magic keyboard case like the one for ipad pro available for this one? I would like to use it like a lightweight laptop.
I think this tablet is designed more for entertainment than for productivity. For productivity, I would recommend a Lenovo Duet Chromebook instead. Those cost about the same as this Android tablet, but include a custom keyboard case as well as better software support.

Intel 226v is 450-650 mph. So 2x to 3x faster than this Lenovo
Intel i7 U (13th Gen) 350mph
Intel N100 250mph

Where do you stop? I have some numbers showing you the actual speeds of the tablet compared to a Gen 8 Elite Chip. These percentages ARE ACCURATE. The fastest is the Gen 8 Elite... lets call this 100%... represents SD 8 Elite tablets.The MT8300 is at 69% compared to the Elite. Represents THIS tablet.The G2 is at 45% compared to the Elite. This represents the Pixel tablet. Finally The SD695 runs at 22% compared to the Elite. This represents the Tab S9+And now my question again, where do you stop? Because I am planning to buy the Redmagic tablet for $521 tomorrow. And based on the specs I believe it is worth the extra $240... that is why I ask you... where do you stop? I stream on my tablet to watch TV and movies most of the time. And I want OLED. I also like small tablets vs big tablets... sub 9" is my favorite size. I crave speed. So Redmagic Astra Gaming Tablet hits every thing on my list and it includes UFC 4.1 (even faster internal harddrive) 12GB and 256GB and SD 8 Elite and I feel for $521, this is a very good deal.

Do you know that you can always buy a "blue tooth keyboard and mouse" for any tablet. There are many people that claim they are buying this to be productive but to me if you want to be productive buy yourself a laptop.
And you though out the name, Lenovo Duet Chrome book... do you have any clue how much slower that machine is compared to this one?
I personally never understood the point of a large tablet, I find them way to big to hold.

use the website notebookcheck.
You can start by your google search... "notebookcheck MediaTek 8300" and from there you can add another CPU to compare.
BUT THIS IS A TABLET NOT A PC and as far as I know, Intel does not make CPUs for android tablets. Intel is NOT efficient... you need a arm CPU. If you had intel your battery life would be like two hours max and your tablet would heat up like crazy and multiple chips within your tablet would break due to the excessive heat.

While apple's M3 and M4 are much faster then the SD 8 elite, they are not efficient. If you read the reddit sites... many people complain of battery life.
You spend over $1000 on a tablet (ipad pro 12.9") and you get less then 5 hours of play time. Android tablets are MUCH more efficient.
And I did not even mention the weight... don't understand large tabelts and why you would want one.
It is the A18 Chipset from Apple that is the one to watch. VERY efficient, even more efficient then the 8 elite. But the 8 elite is faster.

Did you hear what he said... PRE TARIFFS... Trump has nicked cheap chinese tablets. But if you want to see... google, "lenovo store aliexpress" BUT you need to realize you are being shown the "Chinese" variants which are never sold hear in America.
I'm abroad at the moment so US Tariffs will not affect me. Wink I saw the Lenovo store on Aliexpress prior to posting, thank you for your suggestion though. I still would love the link and what is the name of its global equivalent. 😉

The 8 elite, a16, a18 run at 30fps @1080p. M4 runs at 60fps, 1440p or more. of course battery life is worst


A16 is the best value $212-270, as low as $312-370 for 256gb

Without a doubt apple ipad with A16 for sub $300 is the best value but not the best add blocker... that belongs to Android, Chromebooks and PC's.

Is it good for kids to play Roblox and games like that?
I run a couple racing simulator games that have higher requirements as they are graphic intensive. I've had this tablet for couple months and don't see why it wouldn't easily run those types of games too. Been more that pleased with mine for the bang for the buck.

Anyone who experienced this Lenovo vs Galaxytab S7 FE?Also, would be nice if Lenovo had trade in to reduce the costs.
I "upgraded" from the S7+ tab that i had worn out . Haven't missed a beat with this and the screen size is great and more vivid than the S7+.
