Lenovo M10 tablet

[Jack.77]

Is it just me or is this the most useless tablet ever made ?
I only wanted a fairly basic one and reviews looked ok also The man in the shop claimed to have one and said there ok but it’s not even fit for even basic purpose
What is it with all this Fischer price rubbish nowadays

what doesn;t it do?

Over complicated for basic internet use ,bought it to replace an older iPad but given up now after several hours ,may well leave it out in the rain maybe it will improve it ?

When you say over complicated, what else do you need to do, other than open chrome (or your preferred browser) and then type in the web address?

It does sort of work but search controls over complicated and just too annoying.I don’t trust it on certain stuff and i looked into how to change the settings and it doesn’t seem to exist on this unit .
Also must sign in for everything like YouTube when I don’t want an account

Fischer price but overcomplicated, make up your mind

Someone's throwing their toys out the cot after moving from iOS.

Chrome could not be less complicated. You enter a web address, and it takes you there.
Searching could not be less complicated - you enter your search in the google box in chrome and the results come up.
Youtube does NOT require you to sign in or have an account to search and watch all of its content.

What don't you "trust"?

I've got three Lenovo Tab 10 PLus's and they are all absolutely fine, and they don't come with bloatware.

If the OP wishes to get rid, send me a PM, as I could do with a back-up to run my navigation software?

I and others wondered if these 129£ 32gb ones are refurbished customer returns ? Which might explain the potential issues
I can navigate internet fine on a cheap atacel phone so not that much of a dimwit

Been using one for over a year now, works fine for me

[tribalsurfer]

Had mine a year or so and think it's a great tablet. Good battery life easy to use. Years ago I had a Samsung phone and decided there and then that the best internet browser was Samsung Internet and although I have a couple of other browsers, I just use Samsung Internet.

If you have come from an IPAD it could well be that you are not familiar with good products at a cheap price with good compatability and no corporate voodoo over your head.

TLDR : Poor workman ...........

To answer the question: it's you.

HTH.

[Jack.77]

If it’s so good Why does YouTube work intermittently.i only got one episode of the wombles now it says I need the newer version and have to sign into google play also the search bars to go back /home at bottom of screen non existent in settings

[tribalsurfer]

Surely you signed in when you set up the device. If you are not signed up how are you able to download through the play store ? In short sign in and your troubles may just disappear.

Sounds like user error to me.

[anonymous-user]

I bought a Samsung S6 lite for a bit of sofa browsing...... that's crap too, useless slow piece of junk.

I'll probably get an iPad mini .... Seems a nice size.

Some Apple users are a bit special aren't they?

[Jack.77]

Maybe the answer here is to bury it in under old shed base like a time capsule for future generations and future archeological activities of the new age . don’t buy a Lenovo kids ,not worth the stress
