The specs are promising but I doubt the battery. Pero may tiwala naman ako sa Lenovo at ilang beses na niyang pinatunayan yun IMHO. It slayed SAMSUNG tbh.

I’m really torned between this and the asus phonepad. This has better cpu, becasue phonepad as per review has a considerably weak single core atom one, but the latter has a better screen and resolution. Build-wise, I still don’t know lenovo’s when it comes to tablets and smartphones.

Any suggestion? I’m looking for a tablet with full phone and 3G functionality that’s below 15k if possible. If only the new nexus 7 is available locally.
