The Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 is a bestselling 2015 8-inch tablet that received positive reviews for its innovative design, decent camera, clear audio and an exceptionally long battery life. However, it is heavier than other 8-inch tablets and it lacks proper hardware for hardcore gaming and multitasking. All in all, while the Yoga Tab 3 isn’t insanely powerful, it has all the critical components to make it a worthy multimedia tablet. It’s a great option if you’re not looking to spend more than necessary on a tablet for casual use like watching videos, checking Facebook or surfing the web.
