alt Hacker NewsI was shocked, in 2026, to know how hard it is to find a good tablet. iPad is out of question for me, gifted mine to my gf (the only apple device I ever bought).
Landed on a Lenovo Idea Tab pro, which has so much junk pre-installed that keep installing other malware on it.
We need rules that take companies responsible when they trick people into hands of scammers.
As long as I can't unlock its bootloader, it's not much better than that iPad.
I have the Idea Tab (not pro, 10"), and yeah there's a lot of junk.
The only way to keep these usable is to not use the google sign-in, disable as much as you can, sideload F-Droid, and install a lightweight launcher.
