The Lenovo Tab One is Lenovo’s small, inexpensive Android tablet, and it comes with a folio case already in the box. A MediaTek Helio G85 processor runs the software, paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage that can be expanded with a microSD card. Battery life comes to about 12.5 hours of YouTube streaming per charge. You also get dual speakers tuned by Dolby Atmos for surprisingly good sound.

A small but mighty Android tablet that’s perfect for multiple use cases

The size of this 8.7-inch tablet puts it somewhere between a smartphone and a larger tablet in terms of portability, making it easy to hold the device in one hand while reading or watching video. The display has a resolution of 1340 by 800 with IPS technology that maintains color consistency whether you are tilting the screen or handing the device off to someone viewing it from a different angle. The brightness rating measures 480 nits, providing enough illumination to view the screen indoors and under shade outdoors. The display also has an anti-fingerprint treatment designed to minimize smudges on the glass surface.

The MediaTek Helio G85 is an eight-core chip with two performance cores at 2.0GHz and six efficiency cores at 1.8GHz, and an ARM Mali-G52 GPU handles graphics. That combination is built for streaming, browsing, and casual games rather than heavy editing work. There’s 4GB of RAM behind it, and 64GB of eMMC storage, with a microSD slot for more room for downloaded shows and music.
