this is such a stupid and useless review...would a piece of metal scratch if you run a cutter over it? It appears so...wooowwww we didn't know that...
Will a piece of metal and glass break if you bend it too much? It appears so...good thing that you showed us, we didn't know that

Wanted an unbendable tablet? Go buy rugged tablet.

Up until 2017 they were happy with 1GB ram now they adding it just for fun. Same for chargers for example 5V1A charger where android phones will be with 200W chargers this year.
Citation needed. And what do you mean by saying can't handle 8GB RAM? Adding capacity just for fun? Man, the RAM war was already at that stage at Android few years ago, albeit i didn't see that as a bad thing, big RAM means it could handle more apps and more longevity as OSes and apps uses more and more resources in future, albeit iOS got better optimization on that regard (for example try using iPhone SE 2020, which has 3GB RAM and Galaxy S6, which has the same RAM amount).
>M1 wuill crash nothing any SD7XX or SD8XX will run any app in equal speeds just like M1 so paying for a much faster CPU on paper is unnecessary. If a CPU for 1/4 price will be equally same in real life experiene. Having more on paper is plain stupid. Its like ownng a million dollar gold bar but worth only 10k.
Unnecessary? iPhone 6s still got the latest OS updates, can you say the same on a 5 year Android? The point of having performant device is not only because how fast it is, but also how can it endure several OS and apps updates, considering as what i said before, its resourcse usage keeps increasing over time.
And apple optimization doesnt matter IOS as always laggy buggy and not working properly as always. Every few days or weeks they release new patches to fix old bugs and create new. Apple battery problems will be permanently popular and they never fixed and they will never plan thus to apple optimization same for chargers battery degradation switch in settings and many else.
> What i meant from optimization is that how Apple optimizes their software and apps towards older devices. A device as potato as a 7th gen iPod touch, which has the nerfed dual core version of A10 Fusion, still runs games like Genshin Impact due to how they optimized it to be run quickly, towards specific device. Regarding the battery issue, what about those quick charged Android phones? Those are more likely prone to aged even poorer.
>The only copycat here is IOS. Android here have like 4 billions of apps and counting most of them for free where apple every single company which wants to add app to IOS have to pay 100 bucks. IOS dont have even 20% of android apps and mostly like always they copy and paste because everything apple ever made was here before from some other company. Even the IOS. They just steal and send to courts thats apple speciality. I will really never understand people who supports them like they are perfect company. Robbery on a customer is always bad in this case they are so rich they can afford it without shame and without being prosecuted for they crimes because they are so rich they will pass every crime wiith flying colors. Like when EU said all chargers must been same thus USB-C what did you think apple said? And that just one of millions of examples.
>By the way IOS is nothing else just a copycat of palm OS which were here before. Same like some blackberry phones which opene way for apple phones. Company who can only copy and paste doesnt deserve rights t be here as a real company.
You must've been confused the difference between copying and taking inspiration. With such logic, you could assume that Apple copies Motorola for creating phones. What i meant by copying is how an OEM would try to make a similar thing and really aimed to look or feel similar to the original. For example, MIUI was created back in 2010, it was and still purposed for those android users whose wanted to feel the iOS UI look on their Android. Now, fast forward to 2013, iOS 7 launched, it was hugely revolutionary due to its flat UI. Now, see how many Chinese ROMs that look similar? That's what i meant.

By the way 6 or 8 it doesnt matter everything will be smooth as it can be. Difference will be only on paper in real use it will remains same.
M1 wuill crash nothing any SD7XX or SD8XX will run any app in equal speeds just like M1 so paying for a much faster CPU on paper is unnecessary. If a CPU for 1/4 price will be equally same in real life experiene. Having more on paper is plain stupid.

Any UI a lot bettter than IOS at least they are android friendly and device freidnly working with every device not havving apple sticker on it without any dilema. Compared to apple which barely work with it self and for even basic things like copy and paste from phone to PC you always have to use some other bloatware to even work the way you want.
Lasty brightness of 400, 480, 600 or oeven over 1000 nots maybe outside o sun it will have some difference but in any room it will remain litterary same so again paying more for something which is better only on paper like M1 chip comparison to SD7xx or 8xx doesnt make sense.
Apple can try to be best company outside but thats again just a copy paste on real life experience they will he happy for being top 20 rather would say top 100 because every B grade or even C grade company will be much more customer friendly and device freindly than apple will ever be,.
By the way IOS is nothing else just a copycat of palm OS which were here before.
Same like some blackberry phones which opene way for apple phones.
Company who can only copy and paste doesnt deserve rights t be here as a real company.
Thus to my honest opinion. Sorry for said truth.

Lenovo only have one series that got 8 GB RAM.

Not to mention M1 is definitely gonna crash any mobile ARM SoC rn. If you think 799 is still pricey, a 399 iPad with A12 does has A12 and yet i bet it still crashes Snapdragon 870/888, especially with Apple's optimization towards their devices usally keeps their older stuff runs smoothly.
Regarding how user friendly an OS is quite a subjective to me, but clearly Android has a very (and i mean very) few apps that optimized for tablet. Procreate? Photoshop? Illustrator? And not to mention mostly being an ugly iOS copycat, especially if you're talking bout chinese OEM ROMs (MIUI still the top out of those).
Sure, Mini LED is basically an LCD with smaller backlit, but AMOLED tablets are mostly dim. That lenovo you're talking about is an LTPS LCD peaked on 400 nits. Galaxy Tab S7+ AMOLED is peaked at 480 nits.
https://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_tab_s7_plus-review-2147p3.php
While the base iPad Pro (11" one) is 600 nits, and the Mini LED one is 1000 nits, peaked at 1600 nits.
For those who likes to generalize how people uses their tablets, they aren't just a multimedia device. The fact that Adobe, Affinity, and other creative companies already releasing almost PC-grade stuff on tablets doesn't mean nothing. It's capable of doing more, and Android never been explored more.

Paying 60 to 100 bucks for original apple case made of low quality platic which cant whitstand bending like this or accidental sitting on your device is just money tossed from window.

Lenovo for 300 bucks offers equal specs and much more ram also a lot friendly OS and SD card support with bigger battery and faster charging speeds.
And thats 1/4 of price of this.
So lot of people are right. Paying 1200 for a device where a 300 or 400 eur device does same or better tricks is unecessary and a total waste of money and supporting brand which passionate in greed and tahts said fact.

Nah. Those are not ... moreMan Lenovo for 1/3 price made a lot better or equal tablet.
And thats 1/3 of the Ipad.
M1 could be the fastest CPU used in tablets and phones but only on paper in real life use any SD7XX or 8XX can run any app or game at equal speeds as M1. So paying 1200 bucks for something equal to Yoga Pad Pro for 400 bucks or Ipad Pro which cost only around 300. For 300 or 400 bucks having a device which offers bigger battery faster charging and more ram and equal CPU also supports and SD card and offers a much more device friendly OS which is android which is compatible to everything except apple where apple is compatible to its self barelly is much better in my opinion.

Well for bendtest Zack isnt the proper person.
bend test on these devices should be provided by Marius Pudzianovsky, Oleksii Novikov, Tom Stoltman, Martins Licis, Mateusz Kieliszkowski, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, Eddie Hall etc.
Those people would do proper bend testing and prove apple devices arent that great when comes to durability. Same could go to any other company or brand when comes to bend testing by any of people above,
