Lenovo promised us options of 3GB and 4GB RAM, and options of 32GB and 64GB storage, but what has become available to us instead is a 2GB RAM model with 16GB storage.
On the other hand, Lenovo did throw 4G LTE into this tablet though (TB-X704), with no Wi-Fi only models available, at least not yet. So basically we are dealing with a different Lenovo Tab 4 10 Plus now at launch than the ones unveiled in Barcelona in February.
Fortunately for those who were looking forward to a powerful 10.1-inch Android 7.0 tablet, the brand new and much more powerful Teclast Master T10 have just come to the market.
Lenovo Tab 4 10 Plus meanwhile is a Full HD 10.1-inch Android 7.1 tablet with 1920 x 1200 resolution, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, with a 7000 mAh battery. Lenovo used to say that the battery life would be 13 hour long, but now they claim it's a whopping 20 hours long, which can not be true.
It has a fingerprint reader, QC 3.0 Quick Charge with 4 hour charging time, a USB Type-C port, dual-band Wi-Fi cover with 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac ,and Bluetooth 4.2.
Also has a 5MP front camera and 8MP rear camera, microSD card support up to 128GB, front facing stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, and it's among the slimmer tablets, at 7mm in thickness and a weight of 475 grams.
Lenovo Tab 4 10 Plus is compatible with the Lenovo Home Assistant Pack that will be launched next month. It's also compatible with the Lenovo Tab 4 keyboard and the Kid's Pack bumper case.
