User opinions and reviews

If only there were Android tablets the same size as iPad mini and worldwide global availability. Lenovo is that close to making it a reality with the Legion Y700 series, but it's still a China and India-only release.

i want to ask even at playing chess or just graphic hunger games ?

The battery runs out much faster than my iPhone 15 PM. Especially if you are gaming. However, everything else works great. I had this since release, I use it for drawing with my Apple Pencil.
