Comparison review
The Lenovo TAB 2 A8 has an overall score of 60.1, which is a bit better than the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 V's 58.5 score. Both tablets in this review work with Android OS (Operating System), but the Lenovo TAB 2 A8 has newer 5.0 version and Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 V has Android 4.4 version, providing some nice extra features. Lenovo TAB 2 A8's construction is just a bit heavier but just a little thinner than Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 V.
Lenovo TAB 2 A8 counts with an extremely better CPU than Galaxy Tab 3 V, and although they both have a 1 GB RAM memory, the Lenovo TAB 2 A8 also has an extra graphics processing unit, a larger number of cores and a 64-bits processing unit. Lenovo TAB 2 A8 and Galaxy Tab 3 V both feature similar screens, although the Lenovo TAB 2 A8 also has a little bit larger screen, a better resolution of 1280 x 800 and a little bit better display density.
The Lenovo TAB 2 A8 has a little bit better camera than Galaxy Tab 3 V, because it has a way higher 5 mega pixels resolution back-facing camera. Lenovo TAB 2 A8 features a much better storage to install applications and games or saving photos and videos than Galaxy Tab 3 V, and although they both have a SD memory slot that allows up to 32 GB, the Lenovo TAB 2 A8 also has 16 GB internal storage.
Lenovo TAB 2 A8 features just a little better battery duration than Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 V, because it has 4200mAh of battery capacity against 3600mAh.
Although Lenovo TAB 2 A8 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Galaxy Tab 3 V, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Galaxy Tab 3 V. If you are trying to save some money, you can get the Galaxy Tab 3 V, giving up a couple features, but you will get the most with your savings.
