Comparison review
The Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2 is a little bit better than Lenovo Moto Tab, getting a 70 score against 64.4. Both tablets in this review have Android OS (Operating System), but Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2 has the newer 9.0 Pie version while Lenovo Moto Tab has Android 7.1 Nougat version. Even though the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2 and Lenovo Moto Tab were released only a couple months apart, Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2's body is a lot thicker but somewhat lighter.
The Lenovo Moto Tab has a bit more vivid display than Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2, because it has a just a bit more pixels per screen inch, a much better 1920 x 1200 resolution and a larger display. Lenovo Moto Tab features a little better hardware performance than Galaxy Tab Active 2, although it has less RAM memory, they both have 8 cores.
The Lenovo Moto Tab has a little bit better memory to store more games and applications than Galaxy Tab Active 2, because although it has an external memory card slot that holds 128 GB smaller, it also counts with 32 GB internal storage. Lenovo Moto Tab features a really longer battery lifetime than Galaxy Tab Active 2, because it has a 7000mAh battery size against 4450mAh.
The Lenovo Moto Tab's camera is just as good as the camera in Galaxy Tab Active 2, both have a camera in the back with an 8 mega pixels resolution, the same video frame rate and the same (Full HD) video quality.
Although Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2 is a better device, it costs a lot more than Lenovo Moto Tab, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the Lenovo Moto Tab. So if you want that extra specs and features, you can buy the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2, but if you don't you can save some dollars and get the Lenovo Moto Tab, resigning some specifications.
