I love android 8.8inch devices they are perfect, it is all about the screen size. There is nothing like this at this size, it is a premium 8 inch device. The Samsung 8 inch tabs are crap jittery and really bad wifi for me. If you get a bigger screen it is harder to hold to watch things, can't pocket it, you look strange staring at a giant tab in public. You can do whatever you want Torrent Emulate whatever, Apple can't stop you. I use this the more than my phone, laptops, or desktop. You can fit this in your normal pants pocket if you are a guy. I was going to get a foldable but this is better than a foldable. I mean the screen ratio on the foldables is completely off. I normally use this to watch youtube and use Samsung Internet with adblock. I use the nova launcher for better launcher customization. Battery lasts all day sometimes all week. It is maybe 6-8 hours normal use youtube / internet. Totally offline video music and movies maybe 12 hrs. High fps gaming eats battery might get around 4 don't do high end gaming other than when I got it.

I have the Gen2 I imported last year Chinese version just have to enable google store. This is my favorite device by a longshot (I have this , 10inch Surface go, Surface pro 11 13 inch, Tab 12inch). My biggest consideration BEFORE buying it was that it was LCD and I haven't seen a good LCD phone or tablet I thought you need an OLED. This LCD is just perfect for anything you want to do it is an amazing high refresh rate gaming panel. I had an oled Samsung 10 inch tab I sold for a tab 12inch oled and this is very comparable. Whereas my 1k tab does not have a snapdragon this does and it is very noticeable if you use streaming (steam in house) there is something wrong with the latency on all MediaTek devices it is lacking something. The CPU is very fast and the Samsung Tab 11 12 inch OS seems worse than this mostly because it is not as easy to use one handed. Looking to sell my Tab I never use it just use my 8.8 gen 2.

Also this has video out you can mirror the screen as is or have a second screen external output like a DEX mode. I take this with me on trips and can watch movies on any hotel tv with a cheap usbc to HDMI adapter. I just love it and can't live without it really.

This is just so compact you can take it in your pocket it is 12cm, guy with 32 waist fits okay in my pockets not super comfy sitting down but it works. Holding it up doesn't tire out your hands like Anything larger than this. Screen is a much bigger than my Note Ultra and I much prefer watching vids on this. This has no Micro SD card like mine does but get a tiny USB C drive if you really think you need expandablity. You can use this as a small second monitor for a Windows laptop using various software which i do in a pinch. There is a pen that works very well for note taking and also just get a Bluetooth Keyboard and maybe Mouse for light work.
I really don't actually use more than 148gb loaded with games and maybe 10 gigs of videos.
Downside is if you get it submerged it will break (waterdrop res only). Software upgrade policy not the best. Android store will work and gives you updates to your apps but OS updates not great.

Speaking as someone who has been an avid Nova Launcher user for well over a decade, please strongly consider replacing it with something else.

Branch has sold Nova Launcher to an even shadier company who is now loading up Nova Launcher to the gills with ads and trackers. Even Nova Prime users are reporting seeing ads in the app drawer... Full-screen ads complete with sound.

The Nova Launcher we used to know and love is truly dead now.

I kept hearing that about Gen 4 but it was never available in the US from Lenovo, so you're stuck buying from eBay with a questionable warranty. Not to mention that will most likely be $600+

Price is good for the specs but man 8" is tiny
It's main use is inside an expandable controller making it a huge screen handheld device. Like a lighter Legion Go.

No sd card slot for this one. The newer unreleased in the US market does have the sd card slot

Was going to get this and went with the yoga tab. Same specs throughout but with android 15, larger screen, keyboard and pen included. Very similar in price and very pleased with it.

Man. I would buy these things but the UFS storage is just one compromise too many. I could get any iPad and get Nvme. Come on android manufacturers. Wake the F up.
UFS 4.0 is 4.2GB/s read/2.8GB/s write, a little faster than NVME 1.3 on PCIe 3.0. Apple doesn't advertise storage speeds so aren't guaranteed to be any faster, but UFS 4.0 isn't exactly what I'd call the dark days where everyone was using eMMC.
