Design and Display
In terms of design, there is no significant difference between this tablet and the smaller Lenovo Tab3 7. Similar material is used for construction and the build quality is solid. The Tab3 8 also boasts IP52 rating, which means it is splash-resistant.
Lenovo Tab3 8 crams in an 8.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels. You should expect better viewing experience on this screen, especially when viewing content in landscape mode.
The Adaptive Display technology is retained here to prevent eyestrain by adjusting brightness according to ambient lighting.
Power and Performance
