Hardware
| Chipset Chipset is a group of integrated circuits designed to perform one or a more dedicated functions, often with real time computing constraints, Popular smartphones are equipped with more advanced embedded chipsets that can do many different tasks depending on their programming. | Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 |
| CPU | Quad Core 1.3GHz ARM Cortex A7 |
| GPU GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is a single-chip processor designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in a frame buffer intended for output to a display, This includes things such as lighting effects, object transformations, and 3D motion. | Qualcomm Adreno 304 |
| RAM RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of computer memory that can be accessed randomly, any byte of memory can be accessed without touching the preceding bytes that allows information to be stored and accessed quickly from random locations. RAM is the most common type of memory found in computer systems, smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices. | 2GB |
| Internal Storage Internal Storage is a data storage space (flash memory) mostly used in smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices where operating system, apps, music, photos, videos, files and other user data Is stored. | 16GB |
| Memory Card Slot Memory Card Slot is a special slot for inserting a memory card. Memory cards allow you to expand the phone's built-in memory, A memory card (sometimes called a flash memory card or a storage card) is a small storage medium used to store data such as text, pictures, audio, and video, for use on small, portable or remote computing devices such as mobile phones, mp3 players, digital cameras. | Yes |
| Sensors Sensors are electronic components that detects and responds to some type of input from the physical environment. The specific input could be light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure and location, The output is generally a signal that is converted to use in computing systems, a location sensor, such as a GPS receiver is able to detect current location of your electronic device. | Accelerometer, Vibrator, Hall Sensor |

The software experience was also straightforward with a mostly stock Android interface, which We preferred over the heavier customizations in last year's model. The battery life impressed Us, reaching over 12 hours in Our test and providing 2 days of normal mixed use on a full charge. - PhoneArena |

I appreciated the useful built-in kickstand and hanging modes enabled by the signature Yoga design. Battery life impressed Me, easily lasting days even with heavy use thanks to the large 6,200mAh capacity. - MobileTechReview |

I found the 1280x800 display on the Yoga Tab 3 to look pretty nice with good color and viewing angles. Battery life impressed Me, still having 62% charge after a couple days of use thanks to the large cylinder housing. - Lon.TV |

Pros: - Good display with nice color and viewing angles - Excellent battery life, easily lasting days on a full charge - Great speakers with good stereo separation and surround sound effects Cons: - Adequate but sluggish speeds for gaming and multitasking due to low-end processor and 1GB RAM - Cameras are subpar with poor image quality, especially for video which is only 720p - Screen resolution lower than last year's model at 800x1200 |
Lenovo has released an updated version of its affordable Yoga Tab 3 Android tablet. The new 8-inch model delivers a strong overall user experience.
The Yoga Tab 3's standout features include long battery life, a vibrant display, and enhanced audio.
Our testing showed the large 6,200mAh battery easily lasting days of mixed use on a single charge.
We also found the 800×1200 IPS screen to produce nice colors and viewing angles.
Audio quality impresses as well thanks to loud stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos surround sound processing.
Lenovo retains the unique cylindrical design of past Yoga tablets.
This provides a built-in kickstand for hands-free use along with hanging and stand modes.
The textured plastic rear houses the elongated battery inside the cylinder bulge.
While not as sleek looking as metal rivals, the Yoga Tab 3 still offers solid construction.
Performance is adequate but far from class-leading. The quad-core Snapdragon 210 processor and 1GB of RAM deliver expectedly average speed for the cost.
We experienced occasional lag when multitasking or playing graphic-intensive games.
For less demanding use like video streaming and web browsing, the tablet responds smoothly.
One of our few complaints involves the tablet‘s subpar cameras.
Both the rear 8MP and front-facing shooters produce disappointingly dull and washed out images.
Video tops out at a mere 720p resolution as well.
Overall Lenovo's latest Yoga tablet iteration provides strong value as an inexpensive Android slate for media usage.
Buyers wanting more gaming power or productivity may want to spend extra on a model with high-end internals.
But casual users should appreciate the Yoga Tab 3's long battery, enjoyable display, and loud audio in a novel design.
Lenovo manages to tick most essential boxes for an entry-level entertainment tablet even while keeping costs low.
