Just noticed the y700 2023 is at an even better price. Obviously less powerful than the 2025 version but does have micro SD card slot and $200 less than the most recent version.
1% coin bonus brings it down to AU $405ish before currency fees
got xiaoxin pro tablet and it is fine.
Why would you get this over the a16 ipad?
only $100 more for apples ecosystem and updates/ reliability
Size matters?
144Hz instead of 60Hz, runs Android, way more RAM, 2 x USB C ports, much much better for games/emulation, $100 cheaper plus it's far smaller, so more comfortable for using in hand.
free apps and no ads on youtube on this one
If you were trying to compare this with Apple. It would be the iPad mini 7. Obviously the hardware on this Android tablet is a bit better than something by Apple at this end of the market.
If I was personally buying one of these, I’d probably be using it for stuff like game emulation. This can do some switch emulation. Also it has battery bypass, which means when you aren’t on the go you can plug it directly in and not be putting needless cycles on your battery. You also have to consider that the Android ecosystem has advantages over the Apple one too. It’s easier to sideload apps, find modified apps etc.
Is it a red flag at all that the listing name starts with "Original" as in "Original Lenovo LEGION Y700 2023"? I remember seeing a post from user Clear saying this was a method of getting past scam detections.
I do see the feedback for the store is just above 96% though, which I don't really know is satisfactory or not.
