The extraordinary dimensions of the Tab Extreme make it quite a distinctive product, clearly designed as a competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. Absolutely premium, the Lenovo tablet benefits from a huge Oled screen, a powerful SoC – but less than the M1 chip – and extensive compatibility with the excellent Precision Pen 3 stylus supplied with purchase. Other than its average autonomy, it has no real downsides. Thus it can be converted into a luxury viewer, side console or laptop computer as needed. For this end use, you’ll have to seriously consider buying a keyboard, which turns out to be expensive, pushing the price up to the level of a good ultrabook. If that doesn’t scare you, you’ll enjoy one of the best models on the market.
Note: The price drop reported is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged for the product by all merchants in the previous month, excluding in-store prices. with protective rules for those whose VAT policy is unclear (so-called “grey” stores, usually in the case of imports from China).
An alternative
The iPad Air 13 (2024) is an interesting alternative to the iPad Pro 13 released in the same year. Unless you swear by the omnipotence of the M4 chip, the new iPad Air has nothing to be ashamed of with its M2 chip, 13-inch form factor and compatibility with iPad Pro-like accessories. Built for a wider audience, it provides excellent services on a daily basis. If the screen is limited to a 60Hz refresh, it’s particularly pleasant and requires no adjustment. Certainly less light and dense, however it is available in a similar format to its Pro version, much more pleasant to use. The iPad Air 13 (2024) won’t replace a laptop, but paired with an expensive keyboard and stylus sold separately, it’s more than recommended as an all-rounder.
