I found this, I’m wanting to get a pixel tablet in about a week or so. Title just got me wondering a bit, though it’s probably just a little bit sensationalized

    I got a Lenovo M9 a couple months ago. It’s not a powerhouse, but for streaming services/playing local video files it’s amazing. Add in reading books and comics, it’s a damn steal. Battery life is good, small size, and the folio cover is perfect for taking around the house. $150 without the cover is a great deal. I definitely recommend the folio case too. It slated for Android 13 this quarter as well.

      Yup. I bought a similar one specifically for comics and manga that I picked up from Humble Bundle, but it also runs all my boardgames well too. Lenovo’s tablets are a bit anemic power-wise but you can’t beat the price and they’re perfect as a bed-side media machine.

        Agreed. For such a cheap price, I think it hits a good spot.I regret a little not getting their gaming tablet - I didn’t know it even existed during my research. Better specs in a similar form factor. But it wasn’t enough regret to return or anything.
