Lenovo tab 4 8 plus â‚¬119

Unthought Known · 14-05-2018 7:24pm

Well that's weird. Status is "Order in Process", but I got home from work to find my tablet had been delivered.
Looks great so far. Thanks again OP.

spott · 14-05-2018 7:28pm

Who delivered it for Lenovo? I had a slip from UPS in the door today and not sure what it's for.

Finally have mine. Delighted with how it looks. Getting charged up now.

Happy4all · 15-05-2018 10:12pm

Got it!

Thanks OP, well pleased.

UsedToWait · 15-05-2018 10:26pm

Didn't need one.

Resisted temptation even though it was a real bargain.

But I didn't need it.

Raging now I didn't buy it

Got this case. Highly recommend it. Super fit, flap works perfectly. Great value for money.

Kenny Logins · 16-05-2018 9:19am

My case better hurry up, this tablet is a nightmare to hold and use without one. What happened to the idea that tablets were designed to held in your hand (Nexus)?

Can the Back and Open Apps buttons be swapped?
Melting my head it's not the same as my phone

Depending on which version of Android it is ...

try going into settings then look for the button settings. It's in there for me on Oreo on a opo3T

Does anyone know how to get rid of the flashing blue light at the top of the device?

Go to Settings > Apps > and disable Hangouts.

Is anyone getting notifications about Factory Reset required even though nothing has happened?

Facebook Messenger will get rid of it. Maybe the Lite version too.

excel constantly looking for updates

otherwise this is a lovely piece of kit for twice the price

JeffKenna · 18-05-2018 10:10am

Opened it up last night, I really love it...thanks for the alert OP!

Fuzzy Logic · 18-05-2018 10:15am

Bought mine thinking the parents would use it and seems they’re happier with the iPad they have. Might sell mine if anyone is interested

Basq · 18-05-2018 10:15am

Got mine earlier this week and work has been busy that it's still in the box in plastic..

.. hoping to crack it open this weekend. Will order cover in meantime.

Anyone with buyers remorse let me know. Cheers. Young fellas tablet gave up the ghost and gutted I missed this

billbond4 · 18-05-2018 6:45pm

Yip, my old Samsung tab is on its last legs, anyone not using their lenovo I will take it off their hands

Nutser · 19-05-2018 11:56pm

Anyone having a problem logging intro wifi? My tablet will link to regular wifi with password no problem but if I'm in a hotel and require a connection and then a login, it doesn't ever prompt me about the login and I can't find a way around it. Any ideas?
Also i can't seem to switch off haptic feedback.. it's driving me crazy!

Can you turn it off for the fingerprint scanner? I had a good look but could see nothing.

Out of curiosity, why would you want to turn it off?

Tablets are back guys. Not as much of a whopper as last time at €120, it's down to €200 now. Just ordered mine, was kciking myself I missed it the first time around and for the sake of an extra €80 this time, I wasn't gonna miss it. Get it while it's hot. The black wifi is showing as only a few remaining right now. The white non-wifi is €150, with the wifi white €200 as the black one. All the plus models. Both white are showing as more than 10 in stock as of now.

gomara · 25-05-2018 7:11am

"The white non-wifi is €150, with the wifi white €200 as the black one"

Wish I could afford one..just to clarify the weird naming convention. All models have WIFI, it seems the non WIFI one is 3GB/16GB, while the WIFI ones are 4GB/32GB.

Rocko · 25-05-2018 9:32am

Is the €150 tab for sale now only 16gb?
Was the €120 tab for sale a few weeks ago 64gb?

Yeah just following what it says on the site. No idea why it's called that but said it was better to follow the name they're using. Got my confirmation email anyway so I'm sorted... I hope.

jaxxx · 26-05-2018 1:11pm

I expect delivery maybe Wednesday. I've been shopping online for a case/cover. Best covers in shops locally I've seen are €20+. I can buy far superior ones WITH bluetooth keyboards from China for less than €10 POSTAGE INCLUDED. Lol that is absolutely mad. 'Rip-Off Ireland' indeed, never mind 'Republic of'!!!!

Are they the generic 8" tablet covers or do they have close fitting hard shell backs with cut outs etc specific to the Tab 4 Plus?

I'd like a Bluetooth keyboard built into the cover of the case but I wouldn't give up the protection of a hard shell cover for it.

Daz_ · 27-05-2018 9:57pm

It’s selling at 149e now - is that still a good price ?

jaxxx · 28-05-2018 3:50am

Got email that it's been dispatched so I'm happy.... granted it's €80 more than it would have been had I seen this thread earlier originally, but I'm getting a €300 tablet for €200, one that is superior to the tablet that I would have gotten anyway for not that much more money. So yay moment for me right now!

High five anyone? No? Really, you're gonna leave me hanging here?? Ok I know it's nearly 4am but still! Thanks guys..... thanks..

Where are you seeing it at €200?

I'm selling my one as the wife doesn't want it.

PM if anyone wants it please.

What's the grace period of registering for warranty as I can't register mine as it's outside grace period apparently.

Boradriver · 14-06-2018 10:26pm

Sent my Tab back a month ago as it had a faulty display. Talk about a nightmare over the last month trying to get it replaced. Finally got refunded today because it was out of stock. Didn't get an option to wait for it to be restocked but at least it's over with now, having got the refund. I really feel sorry for anyone having to deal with Lenovo customer service.

Anyway, I ordered a cover for the tablet (link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B073VK83CX/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apap_agmvPW9F8oQIS) which I never used. It's a black one, will sell for €10 which is what I paid for it, less delivery.

Located in Limerick, PM away if anyone wants it. Collection only.

Did anyone else get mails about this recently? I got a mail on the 7th July relating to my May order.

The email said :

(If you have purchased multiple items you may receive further invoices once the items have shipped)

Nope, I got one of those emails at the time the Tab was shipped (May 10th) and haven't heard a dickie bird from them since.

Is the same order # quoted on both emails/invoices?

I guess all you can do is either call them (personally I wouldn't as you'll be transferred all over the place) or email them PDF copies of both emails and both invoices and as them why the duplication?

I sent an email this morning asking what was happening. Hopefully they'll get back to me soon.

Actually that did happen me recently.. I managed to get the actual URL of the login screen it was attempting to open somehow and just opened it in my browser - awkward but it works.
