I have the A7 lite, and I love it. The small size makes it easy to carry around, and the sound it is pretty good for the price. Samsung is the second best tablet besides Ipads, obviously
I got the Lenovo M9 and love the size. It is light and comes with 64Gb storage, but watching movies on it are a bit pixelated which may be because of the 1340x800 screen. My next purchase might be a higher resolution samsung but I wish they made 8-9 inch tablets with higher resolutions.
You are awesome! I notice you reply to comments, which is rare to some youtubers, lol. Great in depth video! Cheers, from PH🇵🇭

Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great Vid man, Wich one have better sound (speakers)?
The Samsung's speakers sounded a little bit better to me than the Amazon's, but not by much. If you have a portable Bluetooth speaker or decent headphones handy you'll get much better sound out of them
awesome comparison!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this. Appreciate you! Eactly what i was looking for. Does the Lenovo include a phone dialer? I saw the Samsung did. Many dont..
No the Lenovo doesn't have a dialer pre-installed
Thank you so much because my iPad is getting old and I have been looking for a iPad or tablet & this video helped a lot
Thanks for watching! These tablets are handy for the price, but they won't be able to perform at the level of modern day iPads. As long as your expectations are realistic, you can get some great usage out of these tablets
@@techmechyyo, I use google sheets for my business. Is A7 Lite enough?
@@Enoryt17 I didn't try out google sheets on the tablets, but if you have very large sheets with lots of formulas the A7 might not be able to handle it quickly
Why does it feel like i'm watching "Joey from Friends" do a tech review!
Which would you recommend for reading ebooks and magazines online?
I’m here to inquire the same questions. 📚 ☕️
If you need to know this person is a must watch

Hi. I need to buy a small tablet because all the ebook readers in commerce are incompatibile with Chromebook/Chrome OS - ADE can't recognise and authorise the device. Which one is the best considering that reading would be my main purpose? What about screen and light quality and the possibility to adapt the latter (colour, intensity etc etc). Thanks!
Hi, are you asking about Adobe Digital Editions? Have you checked out the Pocketbook Verse or Verse Pro, they have built in ADE support. I think Nooks from Barnes & Noble and e-readers from Kobo will also work, I would reach out to them to ask. But if you want to use one of the tablets from this video, the Lenovo has an eye protection setting that allows adjustable levels of amber tinting. The Samsung also has an eye comfort setting, but I don't think it's adjustable like the Lenovo. The Samsung is also slightly larger than the other two tablets, 8.7" vs 8". For the Amazon I think you would have to install the Google Play Store on it in order to download the Adobe app, which some people are comfortable doing and some aren't. The Amazon had the warmest color temp out of the 3, it also has a blue shade function to adjust the cool/warm color temp of the display. None of them get bright enough to combat very bright daylight if you're outside. From what I've seen the Adobe Digital Editions app has bad reviews on both Android and Apple stores, you might want to consider one of the Pocketbook e-readers or something similar instead of a tablet
@@techmechy I'm reconsidering the idea of an ebook reader - tried the Samsung tablet but definitely too heavy, big and inadequate to reading. Pocketbook is the only brand with an integrated ADE? - Kindle seems to have the same problems as Kobo for a Chromebook owner plus others regarding ebook formats. Pocketbook Verse seems quite good! I think I'd try it via Amazon and in the worst case I'll send it back

I'm looking for a tablet that I can stream music. Which one would be a good choice?
All 3 tablets can handle streaming music easily, but the Lenovo only has one speaker while the Samsung and Amazon have two. If you are using headphones or bluetooth speakers then this isn't a big deal, but if you'll be listening with the tablet's speakers then go for the Fire HD 8 Plus or A7 Lite.
@techmechy - Due to your review I decided to go with A7. Thank you, @techmechy
The Samsung looks decent but most of the reviews online from people who bought it are complaining about how slow it is once you put a few apps on it, apparently caused by all the memory taken up by Samsung bloatware. Many returned it for this reason.
Shame really as I was definitely going to buy one.
I have the a7 lite for a year and it's pretty good
Whiners Who Probably Didn't Do Something Right...I've Seen Many POSITIVE Reviews...Bloatware Can Be Uninstalled Or Disabled...
Great video!..I'll stay with the Samsung
Thanks for watching, you're definitely one of the Good Guys!
❤🎉😊
First, I don't understand where you're seeing the Lenovo M8 with 3GB of RAM; only the M8"FHD" model claims to have 3GB, and that's not what you're reviewing and it's not even available. Everywhere I find the M8, including on the Lenovo web site, it has 2GB, which I regard as a joke; you couldn't sell a tiny phone today with 2GB.
Next, you don't mention which of the four generations of M8 you're reviewing. You say it as the P22T processor so it must be higher than Gen2, and I remember seeing Gen3 and/or Gen4 models with P22T processors, but oddly now I look at the Lenovo web site and Best Buy, and both say that the M8 has the old A22 processor. So I'm wondering - did they switch back to an old one, perhaps due to supply issues?
Finally, I have the M8 Gen2, with 2GB memory and the Helio A22 processor. The thing is a total joke. Performance is so awful, even with native apps (like Google Notes or just switching apps), that I must wonder how they can sell it with a straight face. I'm really wanting an 8" tablet with a decent processor and enough memory (at least 4GB?) that I'm not sitting around waiting for 5 or 10 seconds for the tab to respond to a single keystroke. The Lenovo M8 Gen2 is totally inadequate for simple web browsing. I don't care about games or cameras; I never use those. I just want performance. Any suggestions?
Thanks for watching, I actually stated it's the Lenovo Tab M8 3rd Gen at the start and end of the video. For some reason the 3rd Gen wasn't widely available, Best Buy only sells the 2nd Gen. I bought the 3rd Gen from Walmart, but I also see it available on Amazon. You should definitely avoid any tablet with less than 3GB of RAM. If you're looking for this size tablet with 4GB you can check out the Samsung Tab A7 Lite with 64GB of storage, that model comes with 4GB RAM instead of the 3GB installed on the 32GB storage model. If Apple releases an iPad Mini 7 this year you might be able to get the iPad Mini 6 on sale, that might be your best bet if you want a small tablet that has the performance you're looking for
The Amazon tablet I can't do they are so slow and glitchy
I find the 2022 gen is fairly snappy i dont have the plus but its snappy
@@user-bu8vn3dn9jwait a year or two. They will become extremely slow
@shamshad1983 I have had my iPad for 5 years and it only just started getting slow
I have the 7 lite is good not fast but good
@@TheReaper_123maybe u got too many apps?
I can’t decide between the M8 or the A7 I have had many products from both companies, so I know the build quality of Samsung is top notch, but I’m seeing a $50 price difference and I could really save the $50 to use for what I actually need this tablet for and that’s just to run some dart board apps and my wife dartboard, to save me from using my
phone.
If you only need it to run some apps I would probably go with the M8 3rd Gen. It's cheaper and the battery lasts longer. If you really prefer Samsung you could wait until it goes on sale, I picked up my A7 Lite for $99. But I'm not sure when it will be that cheap again, that deal I got was during the holiday season.
@@techmechy I think you may be right, the only major disappointment in the M8 is the singular speaker, but might be worth saving the cash. Great vid!
I used a lifelong Amazons tablets as they where in the past half the price of other brands but lately have become even more expensive than an Samsung. The Amazon tablets work but are only formedia consumption and are loaded with crap bloathware you can not erase. This Amazon tab HD8 nears now 4 years of use and gets slow since Amazon actually updates the OS regularly. Same hardware but heavier OS updates I guess make the Tabs slow like for Windows XP you needed only 1 GB of RAM and for Windows 11 already 8 GB - same OS. So I bought 2020 for an relative an Samsung Tab 8 and that gets regular updates till now and is well liked. Best is to get an propper Android stock Tablet instead of these Amazon with loaded bloathware and the sideload apk system. As long as Samsung does so well with OS upgrades and updates Samsung is the choice over Lenovos CCP spyware Tablet. Brands like TCL and Lenovo are controlled by he commies so they are a no go. Thus I ordered now the Samsung A7 lite LTE model for me. The battery can be replaced if you get an original OEM one from Samsung. The battery is what fails on these tablets and not the tablet itself. Any of these you could use still for another 10 years if you change the battery. The other thi g which fails is the USB connector plug. The rest lasts you for 15 years easily would there not be the OS which would be not updated any more after 15 years. Get the Samsung.
I an amazon tab, to use while I shop for a new tab, and I HATE it. I had to refer to youtube just to install whatapp and adding phone numbers is such a chore. I am a Samsung fan and my last tab, a Samsung tab was a Samsung galaxy note N5100 which lasted me nine years. Its batery was functioning till the end. actually the small plastic power button let the tablet down when it fell off.
I have and also am using the Samsung galaxy A7 lite right now. And for me it works great. I only use it for browsing, games and light chores. But for #100.00 who could ask for more?
I have a Samsung galaxy A7 lite now and I like it. I once had the Amazon tab and disliked it also.
Please do comparison between samsung, lenavo, moto, and other tablets of price Rs.20000( India).
I'm waiting for more 2023 tablets to be released, hope to make another video soon
Which one is worth it to buy?for my kid?
I would probably use the Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus, and create a child profile for it depending on your child's age.
@@techmechyis the Amazon fast enough for a kid I hear it can be glitchy?
@markeisharobinson6437 I ended up choosing the Samsung for my 6 and 7 yo cause we've ran through several Amazon tabs. They do end of being glitchey eventually. But they were the cheaper one but what really made me choose the Samsung was play store. They can't get a phone yet but alot of the apps they us are on the play store. Amazon tab stuff be limited. I got 2 Samsung tablets for $104 on prime day and I jumped on it.
@@markeisharobinson6437also you can add family link which is a Parental control app. I use it on kids phone. We have Samsung phones as well.
Id Choose The SAMSUNG... Amazon Fire Is An Alright Tablet~But Can't Have The Google Play Store~So Practically Useless Sadly...I Had 2 Of Them...LeNOvo Is Appropriately...It's A Bloody Laggy Rubbish Tablet...It's What I Currently Have Haven't Used It In MONTHS...It's Only Comparatively Better That The 3 Previous Tablets I've Had...I'm Planning To Replace It With The SAMSUNG GALAXY A7 LITE...Hopefully It Shall Be The Last Tablet I Purchase...
Mine came with 7.8 watt charger
The Samsung? The adapter that came with ours has a rated output of 5V/1.55A, so 7.75W. If yours is 7.8W you can try a 15W adapter if you need quicker charging
Same, mine is 7.8 watts too
Best for kids?
I would probably get the Amazon HD 8 Plus for kids. It will handle movies and shows easily enough. If the kids play higher-end mobile games all 3 of these tablets will run a little slow when loading, but most games will play on them.
For RUclips, tiktok, Netflix, RUclips??
For streaming apps like Netflix I would recommend the Samsung or Amazon. The Amazon doesn't come with the Google Play Store, which you need to download the RUclips app. So you would have to go to RUclips.com on the Amazon's web browser, or search online for how to install the Google Play Store. Samsung might be your best choice overall, it has a slightly larger screen and the Google Play Store pre-installed. None of these tablets have great cameras, so if you post your own videos to TikTok you might want to stick to using your phone. For watching TikTok videos the Samsung or Amazon should be fine
I think galaxy a7 lite is best for student like me with low budget😊😊
Yes it's a good option for running most android apps, browsing, watching movies, and basic gaming. It does not have the best support for note-taking with a stylus, if you were planning to use it in class for that you may need to look at other tablets. But if you're only using it for entertainment it's a good choice
Me to
4 lakh is budget you talk more above on
I'm looking to buying the Lenovo tab just to watch movies ans shows...
If you only plan to watch movies and shows, I recommend the Fire HD 8 Plus over the Lenovo. The Amazon had better video and sound quality over the Lenovo, and if you can wait the Fire HD 8 Plus sometimes goes on sale for less than the Lenovo.
The Lenovo isn’t bad for Netflix, no he but I ordered mine from Walmart for $69 in Houston
HD*
Yes I've always seen the best price for the Lenovo on Walmart's website
If you can find the “smart” version of the tab m8, that has stereo speakers and a charging base
lol i like your robot friends
I'll keep this short...I love, love, LOVE this tablet. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxLNmVocUk8tnSkwWIlYSNFzWRIaFTBuzS The picture quality is amazing and there are so many features that this technodino can't wait to learn! My only (very, very minor) complaint is that I ordered this in bronze and they sent me black. Yes, it should have been corrected, but we were only in country for a short period of time and I didn't want to run the risk of not getting a new one in time. I'm such a fan of Samsung Galaxy tablets that I'd rather suck it up than lose out on having it. In the big scheme of things, this rates an irritant factor of .0000000001 out of 1000. In other words, I'm not looking at the colors when I use it, so I got over it very easily.
