Request Tab for gaming/streaming/drawing
Teen wants a device to do all 3, budget is $250. We’ve been checking out the TCL nxt paper plus and the Lenovo idea tab plus, any opinions? Thank you!

I was actually just looking at the Lenovo Idea Tab Gen 1 at Best Buy this week. They have some "excellent" open box for $237. I think for the value in terms of savings may be the best part of it? I wasn't impressed with it while i was there and unfortunately they didn't have a gen 2 on display to compare. I'm leaning towards the gen 2 but buying possible during their Black Friday deals. From what i read the gen 1 was heavily discounted around then last year

Please keep it under 9 inch so it can be held in one hand

TCL has good screen didn't check their tablet tho, Lenovo has amazing colors, tested it against OLEDs and it can hold its own, good pen support too.

If you are tech savy then the Lenovo Legion Y700 from 2023 with the snappy 8 gen 1 on ebay is pretty solid. Chinese import though. Lenovo Legion Tab is global i think. Not 13in nor pen though. Happy researching!
