    Are we able to move large games to the microSD card in Marshmallow without rooting?
    I have a asus tablet with 16 Gb internal memory and its always filling up and cant really move much to microSD.

      If it supports the new adoptable storage option in marshmallow then yes you'll be able to expand the storage for apps and games without rooting.

      • techno2000 on 20/06/2016 - 15:22

        So now that we know its actually running lollipop it means you will be severely squeezed for space unless you root it.

          Read this deal link under Description - Delivery Policy, as I posted above - no 2 item restriction. States that on mobile & desktop versions of OW eBay site.
          Even if a 2 item restriction was applied, just add a pen or other cheap item. No reason to neg deal.

  • INFIDEL on 19/06/2016 - 08:52

    Expired?? Just not from their eBay store, with the free delivery.
    Still available for $76 at OW online (free C&C) & in stores. Same price at some other retailers.
    But no free shipping.

    OP: could change to active deal by removing "free shipping" & change deal link to OW site. Mods can do this.

        (Currently I'm just using an old Pendo Pad with a cable to my old TV, works well as a media centre for playing movies but the Pendo is getting ancient now and doesn't run newer apps/codecs…)

      And does this thing use a custom power supply/connector?

        Exactly! I'd hoped someone who had one might know. (I'm hundreds of miles from the nearest shop right now!)

    • INFIDEL on 19/06/2016 - 09:25
      +4

      Yes its limited in features. But some situations don't need more - eg car installation. I did a similar install with a $27 tablet from Coles (1024x600 IPS, Single Core 1.2 GHz CPU, 1GB RAM) over a year ago - very happy with it ;-)

      • lostn on 19/06/2016 - 09:33

        Fair enough.

        I've sworn off Lenovo. I bought a flagship K900 phone from them a few years ago. It never got a single Android update. It stayed at 4.2, which why just 0.1 off the requirement for Android Wear smartwatches. I waited, and waited and waited for the update.. just so I could buy a smartphone. They promised it was coming right from the start. Kept it for 2 years, never got an update.

        Then I just went and bought a GS6. If they had told me they were never going to update it, I would have changed phone much sooner.

        Don't expect any timely updates from Lenovo, if at all. They didn't even bother updating their flagship device, why would they update a budget $76 tablet?

        • INFIDEL on 19/06/2016 - 09:39
          +2

          Android 5 as supplied, but rumours of 6 soon…
          Most will not use this tablet that long, so upgrades are less important. People will have lower expectations of a $76 device.
          My car's ancient tablet OS is ICS (Android 4.0.3) & still useful ;-) Not worth upgrading OS on that old tablet - another cheap tablet would be better.

        • lostn on 19/06/2016 - 21:46

          @Infidel: Rumors of 6 soon, yes.

          As soon as I bought my K900, it wasn't "rumored" to get an update, it was promised by Lenovo themselves. They never delivered. I held off on buying a smartwatch the entire time, waiting for an update first that never came. After 2 years I gave up and got an S6 (and a watch). Never buying Lenovo again. I don't trust them to deliver on a promise, much less a rumor. If they won't do it for a flagship, I can't see them doing it for a $76 low end tablet either.

          I had the option of Sony Smartwatch 2 which did not use Android Wear and did not require 4.3+ but I didn't want that watch because it looked el cheapo.

          You might be right that most people won't use this tablet long and updates are less important. In my case though, I was on the borderline of support for Android Wear. 4.2 vs 4.3. I just needed one minor update and I would have gotten support.

          In the case of this tablet, with 8GB internal memory, you're going to want the Adoptive memory functionality of 6 Marshmallow, otherwise you can only have less than 8GB worth of apps on the phone.

      Has GPS & IPS screen at a good price 👍

      Well suited to car install
      See car installation link with photo using it above.
      Good screen viewing angles (eg IPS) are important for use in vehicle.

      But you don't need high specs for car install - I'm using $27 7" from Coles for GPS, control of head unit, music streaming, movies, etc.

    • ntb on 19/06/2016 - 13:22

      Try to find a nexus device, it has gps built in even for wifi ver. I got my nexus 7 2013 32GB for only $100 from Gumtree, it was really a bargain. Perfect to use in car.

      • INFIDEL on 19/06/2016 - 13:33
        +1

        What features does your $100 second hand Nexus add to a car install, that this readily available cheaper unit with warranty doesn't?

        Pretty well any tablet with GPS, IPS screen for the viewing angles found in vehicle use, & can store & run the apps required will do. Bluetooth is good but not vital.

        Happily using an old single core 1GB 7" in my car for over a year, bought new for $27 at Coles. But may upgrade old tablet soon. Provides GPS online & offline maps, music streaming & player, movies, YouTube & internet TV, controlling Bluetooth head unit via app, etc. Of course browser is painfully slow, that's why its used in the car where browser access is not usually needed.

        • ntb on 19/06/2016 - 19:11

          I had used the Optus ZTE 4G Smart FIT as a GPS (google map) for a while and I can assure you it's a pain in the ***.

        • INFIDEL on 19/06/2016 - 19:27

          @ntb:
          Every device & app will be different & some report they can be a pita with GPS.

          You're comparing a 4.5" phone with a tablet for GPS navigation to start with. That's before considering its use in a vehicle.

          Screen type (to avoid screen angle issues, be bright & easy to read from distance) & size are important there.

          That phone has TFT screen with poor viewing angles for car or any use where not viewed almost straight on, against good IPS screen on the nexus & this tablet. Even my old $27 tablet has IPS & good GPS.

          The question was - what features your tablet has that make it a better choice (perfect as you say) than this cheaper new device for a car installation?

          Car use is usually not that demanding & unlikely to ever require the expensive 32GB RAM of your tablet. That's too good for a car ;-) What apps do you use for the car?

          I've found no difficulty with only 1GB RAM for the few apps I need.
          The car installation using this tablet runs Torque app with obd2 adapter, Google play music, maps, etc on only 1GB RAM. Photo showing the few apps in use, similar to my installation - which uses an app to control the head unit with Bluetooth audio.

          Its handy to learn from others experiences. I don't have this tablet or yours, but am interested in different installations to mine, so I can improve / upgrade it.

    • 242gtr on 19/06/2016 - 21:07
      +1

      I just picked one up from Harvey Norman and as you say it has Android 5 installed and software check says its already the latest OS. This is dissapointing as this version has user accounts disabled while the Lenovo version of android 6 has the user account functionality. As these are for the kids, the ability to create restricted users is important.

      • lomie on 19/06/2016 - 21:27

        Yeah, I was playing with a demo unit at HN. Assuming that all current stocks are the same, the Android 6 mentioned in the description above should be changed.

        After HN, I went to OW and there was a demo unit also. It however said that there was a software update pending. The download would have been 16MB. This was the update name.
        lenovo tb3-710f_s000022_to_lenovo_tb3-710f_s000023
        Does anyone recognise it? Unfortunately I didn't pay enough attention to the current Android version. It may have been 5.0 and perhaps the update took it to 5.0.1. I'm not sure so…

      So far no reports of Android 6. The item description above needs to be updated so as not to cause confusion or false expectations.

        In the states, they already have android 6.0. So it's probably not available in AU yet.

          Excellent! Is the US model a different model number?

    This is a good cheap product for phantom drone flyers, compatible with DJI GO! Don't have to bother with iPad or iPhone anymore thx for the deal 👌👍

    I bought it on a whim because it was so cheap and have decided to use it to emulate some GBC and PSX games. Brilliant value!

        I've been rekindling my childhood with some Pokemon Red and Metal Gear Ghost Babel. At 7" it's a perfect size to hold… and the tablet too.
