    The Good: The Lenovo IdeaPad A1 includes front and rear cameras, Bluetooth, memory expansion, and a full-fledged Android experience, at a great price.

    The Bad: The screen has a bad viewing angle, the design is chunky, and the Android OS isn't the latest and greatest.

    The Bottom Line: The Lenovo A1 is a classic Android tablet, at an attractive price, but its subpar screen gives the competition an edge.
