The good: The Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 sports a snappy quad-core CPU, features expandable storage and an HDMI output, and is reasonably priced at $300.
The bad: The IdeaTab A2109's display is unimpressive, it has a bulky build, and it has disappointing video recording quality.
The bottom line: Despite having a decent price tag and zippy processor, the Lenovo IdeaTab A2109's screen is just too drab to consider.

A fantastic deal.
by UnbreakableJB on October 14, 2012
Pros: Price! Similar products are at least $100 more.
Speed. It responds as fast as your fingers move.
Build quality. The metal housing is attractive and durable.
Size. 9" is just right.
Features -- GPS, microSD, HDMI out, two cameras, and good speakers.Cons: Screen quality. It's not bad, but it's not great either.
No Jelly Bean, and no info when or if it will arrive.
Camera quality. I haven't spent much time with them, but if it matters to you (it didn't to me), look at some images and videos in reviews.Summary: I think this tablet is exceptional in almost every way except the display. It certainly could be much better, and it's a shame that it's not. Don't ...
Summary: I think this tablet is exceptional in almost every way except the display. It certainly could be much better, and it's a shame that it's not. Don't simply accept the reviewers' opinions about it, though. Watch some videos on YouTube -- they'll give you an accurate idea -- and judge for yourself whether you'd prefer to pay another $100 or more to get a great display -- and possibly sacrifice other features. At $300, it's a 4-star tablet, but for $250 I have to give it 5 stars.

Outshines Tablets that are more expensive
by Lenovo-A2109A on March 16, 2013
Pros: Mighty fast has NO problems running anything that I throw at it, GREAT Battery Life between 5 to 9 hours depending on what you are doing, Easy to use, More then worth the $209 that I paid for it.
Do Not regret this purchase in anyway.Cons: Only one complaint is that the rear camera isn't teamed with a Light for better picture taking in low light conditions.
But Tablets farrr more expensive don't have these either anymore.
Would be nice to have a 2nd micro usb port.Summary: Jelly Bean came stock on mine OTB.
And is avalible for Update/Dwnld by going into Settings n clicking on updates.
Modded ROMS are avalible on AndroidTablets.net.

I see no problem with the display.
If not trying to hold it at angles even a laptop display would give you problems viewing.
I think the reviewers including the ones here want to find something wrong with a tablet that is priced so affordably, So as to push the ones that are $150 or more above the price of this one, If you want a crisp clear colorful display add a Good Quality Clear Screen Protector.
And since it has a High Quality Tempered Glass Display some say it's Gorilla Glass and some say it's another Brand.
It's glare when used outside in the bright light can be tricky.
"BUT" can be eaisly handled once again by adding a High Quality Anti Glare Screen Protector.
All in all a Fantastic Tablet and well worth a second look when looking at other tablets that are much more expensive. -
Great features, hard to handle
by 1nancyg on January 8, 2013
Pros: Lots of features and a great price
Cons: very sleek on the back so hard to handle, a bit bulky
Summary: Great if you will use on a stand, to bulky for a hand held tablet

Summary: On sale you can find this item for about $230 as of Nov. 2012. How can you beat this. Its quad core processing power is superb and the touchscreen is very responsive. Although it may not look as pretty as some of the newer tablets, it is well worth its cost. Watching HD video on it is seamless. Best in class horse power for your dollar. Cant wait to see what the future of tablets holds for Lenovo. Thus Far Very Impressed
