5.0 out of 5 stars Great value little gem, 30 Dec 2012

This represents excellent value for the money.
For under £150 you get 3G (top that!), expandable storage (up to 32GB micro SD slot), two cameras, GPS.. and so far everything works very well.
The tablet is pretty fast and I have no problem with the screen either.
I understand this is relatively new product and range of accessories is still limited. I am yet to find a safisfying case and choose a screen protector - but I am sure the market will catch up in no time.
My only gripe (very tiny one) is that the front camera (0.3MP) could be slightly better quality. Skype is used quite commonly these days and while videocalling the image suffers a little. This is not huge letdown though and overall I am very happy with my purchase. Would recommend !!!

Quick delivery from amazon 2 days ordered boxing day, the tablet for the price is very good we have an I pad which is excellent but too large for carrying , this just slips in your coat pocket, internet is very good wifi works well, typing in costa coffee , screen is fine you do have to look at it square on for best view, not a bad thing stops people looking at your data, would recommend this tablet one issue the spec mentions fm radio but cannot locate it does not appear to be on the tablet which is dissapointing

4.0 out of 5 stars What an improvement!, 15 Dec 2012

I bought this to replace my Lenovo A1 7 inch, which suffered from numerous well documented problems reported by users everywhere. The Lenovo A2107 is a marked improvement, and for a budget tablet it's not too shabby.

Lenovo have corrected many of the issues from the A1.
-The A2107 starts quicker, not by much admittedly, but a noticeable different.
-There isn't a high pitched squeel from the speakers on the A2107 which was very annoying on the A1. The audio through the headphones is clear enough without crackling from the electronics inside.
-The webcam at the front works! the A1 would always be off-centre, blown up and upside down! The A2107 has sorted this problem which is great news for anyone who wants to use video chat apps.
-Android has been updated to version 4.0 which might not be the latest, but it's more 'tablet-friendly' than the last version which was designed for mobile phones.

On the plus side:
-The tablet handles well and is responsive enough for everyday use.
-I like the inclusion of 3G connectivity on this model. It's handy for getting online when you're out-and-about without finding hotspots.
-Android 4.0 - Easy to use.
-3G and 2G so you can even send SMS messages with the A2107. I haven't figured out calls yet. There are two apps that come to mind for calls and messages where you log-in with the phone number of the SIM you're using. Not tried this yet. Sorry, I don't think I'll be allowed to name apps here.
-Excellent price and value.
-The battery life is pretty good.

Room for improvement:
-The colour depth on the screen is not true colour. You are able to see blocks in fading colours on the display, if you really look hard.
-There is no charging LED. No real way to tell if it's fully charged without pressing buttons and looking at the screen.
-Comes pre-loaded with a lot of apps that I don't have use for. I needed to spring clean the apps list after I got it.
-If you need instructions then do some homework on the Lenovo website. It's there online, but you don't get a full paper copy.
-While the front camera works, it is only 0.3 megapixels. This is not a high definition camera. Additionally to this, the colour depth I mentioned before makes the image look worse than it appears on the recipient's computer. I've seen it at the other end. Also, the back camera is only 2 megapixels.

I was a little nervous about buying the A2107 after experiencing problems with the A1. I'm glad I did though. If you want an AMAZING! tablet than spend more money. But, if you want a day to day model that will get you online, let you keep in touch, play your favourite tunes and a little more, then this is a great purchase.
