Excellent Tablet for price!!!
David Lander (Jan 12, 2015)
on Gadgets 360
I use this tablet and have everything I need installed on it to run my computer business. Best features are its 1200/1920 pixel resolution and its to cameras. It also has a very good 4 core processor. Very happy for the Lenovo pricing of this tablet. My ipad 4 sits on the shelf good for storing pictures. For me (5 STARS)!!!

Can't get better for the price
Divyesh Sejpal (Dec 1, 2014)

It's one superb equipment. Period.
What you are not getting is the metal thing. But the good thing about this is, it neither feels plasticky.
I did not like Lenovo launcher and replaced with Google now launcher. My 64 gb card did not work straight because it had xcFat format. I had to take it contents on pc, format in this tab and copy back. Then works flawlessly. Now it's FAT32 format.
Installed several apps, surfed etc, never encountered any glitch or it never show or hanged or restarted. Working smoothly.
It's very light and thin. Just waiting for the folio case and screen guard to be available.

Pros:
Fantastic IPS display
High power processor
Highly customized UI (depends on whether you prefer 'Apple' look or you are more of a native Android type of person :P)
Free Headset :D :D :D
Backpanel matte finish, attracts less fingerprints
Cons:
It heats up a little while playing games
Too much screen glare (I guess you have to accept it for an IPS display)
Verdict:
A superb budget tablet, sometimes makes you feel like an iPad owner. :P

Master piece, but what a shame !!!
Archana (Dec 1, 2014)
on Flipkart
Master piece, but what a shame, I want to return it as Flipkart did not honor its commitment of 10% cash back. Flipkart is giving one excuse or the other just to avoid paying me back what is due. I wonder what they are doing with billions of dollars of investors money. They need a lesson or two from their competitors on how to honor the commitments and keep the customers happy.

Gaurab Saha (Dec 1, 2014)
on Flipkart
I was personally looking for a TAB which have at-least 2 GB RAM, 1.6+ GHz Processor, good Internal Storage, Full HD Display and most importantly voice call facility.
When I check this product, it matches all my requirement and get in reasonable price.
Pros:
1. No Lags: I have FIFA 2014 installed which is playing superb.
2. Outstanding Dolby Sound: feel like INOX/PVR cinema hall. I connect my moto-g headset with this device and play the AVATAR Movie. Its just awesome.
3. Display: Very bright display
4. Design: It has a comparable looks with IPAD
5. It has 4G support
Cons:
1. No Hear Phone in box.
2. No screen protector
3. No Flip cover available in market

Pros:
- At 8 inches and 1920x1200 resolution, this tablet has one of the sweetest IPS displays at this price point. Doesn't feels lacking like a 7" nor overwhelming like a 10" form factor. Very premium display and with the Lenovo HD Launcher, the overall visual experience is fantastic.
- The Bay-Trail graphics equipped Atom Z3745 is a beast of a processor getting 32,000+ points in AnTuTu benchmark. Intel Atom processors have been evolving at a rapid pace and offers one of the best platforms for Android to perform on. This tablet is a proof of this progress. Lenovo has ensured a solid core for S8 with the Z3745.
- 2 GB RAM allows for convenient multitasking. I simultaneously play FLACs, keep torrents in background and play Riptide GP, Hitman GO or Real Racing 3 and S8 does it without breaking a sweat! No lag or slowdown so far.
- 8MP back camera! Very nice camera, not bad at all. In decent lighting it provides very satisfactory imaging. Front cam is totally acceptable for video chats, nothing mind blowing though. Don't expect spectacular selfies either. But then, who uses an 8" mid-range tablet for professional photography?
- Android 4.4.2 out of the box. Lenovo HD launcher is not bad either. No bloatware that consumes your RAM or ROM. It does comes pre-installed with some apps, but you can completely uninstall them. The default apps that can't be uninstalled can be disabled without a fuss. I strongly suspect a Lollipop update within next 3 months based on Lenovo's updates pattern on other Android devices.
- Mind blowing front dual speakers. With Dolby effects, they sound deceptively powerful in such a thin form factor. One of the best speakers I have seen in tabs/mobiles at this price point. No distortion and perfectly balanced sound. No need to lug an additional speaker.
- Weight. Just ~290 gms! But wait, I'll tell you a con too around that :)
- 4G LTE and voice calling!
- 64 GB expandable MicroSD slot. Can't say how irritating it is nowadays to find devices that don't offer MicroSD slots! And 64 GB offers plenty of room to carry around decent infotainment without a connection during remote travels.
- Got a Sennheiser HD 202 II worth 2400 INR for free. Sweet deal!
Now, the Cons:
- My only major grouse is with the exteriors. While some folks might like the matte gripped plastic back, I feel a solid metal back should have provided the perfect housing for this beast of a beauty! The plastic back is simply - a heart breaking housing for this kind of specs. But then, it also contributes to lower weight and less fatigue for long hand holding sessions. Its not low quality, mind you. It's just very featherweight exterior for a heavyweight interior! There should be some 'cohesiveness' in the "overall experience" :)
- Not sure about the scratch resistance of the display.
- No accessories available yet - 14 Dec. Looking forward to a decent folio case and a screenguard to provide some much needed protection to such a beautiful device. Desperately waiting. Purchased a temporary protection in form of a well-built Digiflip 8" tablet sleeve for just Rs. 199/-
-------------------------------------
-------------------------------------
Overall, an extremely VFM buy along with the free Sennheiser headphones. Go for it!

The sound, gaming, graphics quality is superb, mindblown. No lags, with a decent 60 fps(THIS IS INSANE FOR A TAB IN THIS PRICE RANGE), which is ideal for gaming. Touch is smooth! UI is fab.
The only draawback it lacks is the battery back up time.
Overall, a must buy!

I have used this product for a week now.It is working fine.The only problem is battery.While playing clash of clans continuously using wifi ,the battery lasts only for 3-4 hours(3 max).No earphones in the box. No folio cases or flipcovers(this is very bad).
I have used this tab for 20 days now. No problems till now.
Flipkart please provide folio cases. Folio cases are available on amazon.com i.e. in international market.So please provide the folio cases or flipcovers

Dear WS Retail,
I have always been a happy buyer whenever I have purchased any items from you. Recently I ordered this tablet in the night time, and next day morning you came out with an offer of headset. I think, I too deserve that offer. But anyway, if possible, please arrange flip covers for the same tablet.

Superb Tab With Voice Calling Feature...........I m Loving It....
Aamir Shaikh (Jan 1, 2015)
on Flipkart
Its a very good Tab from Lenovo. Great features like 2 GB RAM, 1.92 GHz processor, 8 MP rear Camera, HD video recroding. I am using this tab from last 2 weeks and so far no issues at all. Got Saco keyboard for my tab which is also fitting perfectly all right. I would suggest S8 tab instead of Lenovo Yoga series. With 8 Inch screen you will much comfortable and its easily holdable also. Much better features in this price range, while Yoga series will cost you more and almost same feature, only design part is better there. So Just go for Lenovo S8....
