Buying call

Buy the Lenovo Idea Tab Pro if you want a big Android tablet with a stylus included for notes, video and light multitasking: it comes with the pen and a fast charger, has a microSD slot and lasted 8 h 21 min in a full-brightness video test. Reviewers also liked its speakers. Skip it if you want speed or durability, because the MediaTek chip is modest and there's no IP rating. The screen could also be brighter.
