Design
As a tablet material, the manufacturer limited himself only to plastic, however, in the design it is involved in different variations. For example, the back cover of gray has a matte rough surface, which is very convenient when operating. In its lower part there is a mirror insert in black color, of course, also plastic. In the middle of the lid, you can see the Lenovo brand logo, and in the upper left corner - the rear webcam.
The mirror insert is visible and in front of the gadget: it is, a kind of, edging, which is slightly extended at the bottom of the device. At the top and on the side of the scenes it can be seen thin strip. There is also a company logo that is located right under the screen. There are no physical keys on the front edge of the tablet, but the length of the front webcam lens and the light sensor is located above the display.
Considering the non-uniform design of the device, which distracts all attention to itself, to determine the dimensions of the gadget to the eye seems difficult. However, the thickness of Lenovo Ideatab S5000 is 0.8 cm, and the length and width is 19 cm and 12 cm, respectively. Weight equal to 246
Display, sound and webcam
The tablet screen is highly compact - 7-inch, its resolution is 1280 per 800 pixels with a Density of 215 PPI, the type of matrix - IPS. This is quite standard indicators for tablet PCs of such a form factor, it is impossible to be called them perfect, but, in general, they are very good. There is a oleophobic display of the display, which should protect it from fingerprints leaving fat traces, dirt.
The screen visibility is good, inherent in the IPS matrix. As the manufacturer assures, the viewing angles of the tablet are 178 degrees. Thus, enjoy the film, browse Internet resources can easily be able to make several people at the same time. By the way, the multitouch function is also present, the screen supports up to five touches at the same time. It is worth adding that the display is quite bright and contrast, the image on it looks realistic.
Speaker in IdeaTab S5000 one, and it is located above the display near the webcam. It is not worthwhile to wait for the miracle: the sound is standard, but for playing something will be enough, especially if you connect headphones. But the chambers are two, while the front is limited to a resolution of 1.6 Mp, and the rear - 5 megapixel. At the same time, the main one can boast by autofocus, but there are no flashes here. The purpose of these cameras is known to all: the front camera serves solely for video links, and the back will be useful if you need to take a picture. It is clear that with such a small resolution, it is not necessary to count on high quality pictures.
Keyboard
The keyboard in the tablet will not be particularly much to tell, because it is not physical, and we can not touch her. But there is virtual keyboardwhich is an unchanged attribute of any tablet PC. It appears on the display as soon as you need to enter, for example, the word in search string Or send a message in social networks.
So, there is a standard Android keyboard here. Its interface is very convenient and understandable, if desired, you can change various parameters, for example, language. In general, even those who have never worked with this operating system, driven with the keyboard instantly!
Performance
As a pre-installed OS, we have Android 4.2, while the manufacturer promises that the system will immediately be updated to version 4.3. Equipment Lenovo Ideatab S5000-F includes a MEDIATEK MT8125 quad-core processor, built on the basis of ARM Cortex-A7 with a working frequency of 1.2 GHz. By the way, this SOC is equipped mainly budget models tablets. There is another complete set - Lenovo Ideatab S5000-H, which has a slightly stronger processor - MediaTek MT8389. In addition to this feature, this modification is equipped with a 3G module.
The role of the graphic component is the PowerVR SGX544 video card. She knows how to encode and decode video, supports DirectX 9, OpenGL 2.1, OpenGL ES 1.1 / 2.0, OpenVG 1.1 and OpenCl 1.1.
There are no options for choosing the volume of operational and integrated memory, you will have to be content with the fact that Lenovo engineers are laid. And they offer potential users 1 GB random access memory LP DDR2 and 16 GB of flash memory, from which part will go under the system, and it will be possible to use 13 GB. Unfortunately, the memory cards are not provided, and therefore it will not extend the capacity of the built-in memory.
Ports and communications
Interfaces are made practically for all the edges of the tablet PC, except for the left, which may seem to users are not entirely rational.The left part of the tablet is not equipped with any interfaces.
But on the right there is a volume control rod and a gadget switching button.
At the top of the manufacturer limited himself only to the headphone jack.
In the lower end you can see Micro-USB / OTG in the center, and next to the built-in microphone.
The configuration of this tablet PC is distinguished, first of all, the presence of a 3G module in one of them. The Lenovo IdeaTab S5000-F model described by us is optional. In addition, each of them has built-in Bluetooth 4.0 wireless communications and Wi-Fi 802.11n, as well as GPS navigator.
Battery
There is a tablet lithium-polymer battery Capacity 3450 mAh. Based on the manufacturer's assurances, this battery allows you to operate a device at least 8 hours with Wi-Fi enabled. And the engineers were right, indeed, the gadget is able to work for about 8 hours in web surfing mode and about 6 hours while watching movies. Even under load with 100% brightness of the displays, the ACB is discharged not earlier than after 4 hours. We conclude that this tablet PC is incredibly mobile and perfect for travel.

Conclusion
Tablet Lenovo Ideatab S5000 is just a find for everyone who is looking for a compact gadget in order to have fun and productively spend free time. Yes, he has plastic housing, however, there are its advantages in it: it is light and far from the most expensive on the tablet market (on average, $ 290). In addition, he has a pleasant eye design and definitely will not remain unnoticed surrounding, especially since it is possible to acquire the same model, but with 3G.The display tablet does not have a phenomenal resolution, but for 7 inches of what is, quite enough. In addition matrix IPS. Please the user with good viewing angles. The filling of the device is enough to solve everyday tasks, as well as for many modern games. A rather substantial minus is only in one - it is impossible to increase the memory storage due to the absence of a memory card slot.
In general, the tablet was successful, and therefore we advise you to look at it to everyone who in this moment Located in the search for high-quality device.
The tablets with a 7-inch screen diagonal are helpfully considered the most massive devices in its class. That is why in order to stand out against the background of competitors, manufacturers have to go three basic ways - to offer original design, unique functionality or radically reduce cost. The hero of our today's review Lenovo IdeaTab S5000 refers to the devices of the first type, as it is that the design is its main weapon in the struggle for the attention of potential buyers. However, the technical characteristics of this tablet cannot be called too weak, as it is equipped with an IPS matrix, a quad-core MediaTek processor, a GPS receiver and an optional 3G module.
The Lenovo IdeaTab S5000 tablet is packed in a silver-white cardboard box, at the lower level of which accompanying documentation and network charger 7.5 watts with a removable USB / Micro-USB cable.
The mysterious design of the recycled cardboard, which at first glance seems like a simple traction pallet, in fact can also be used as a temporary stand for the tablet.
Design
Seedyhymumova lenovo model IdeaTab S5000 looks noticeably more compacting most of its fellow class. A similar effect creates a silvery black design of the front panel, the minimum width of the screening of the screen and the characteristic shape of the housing, which replaces its true thickness. Eventually, dimensions The devices are 116 by 191 mm, the thickness is 7.9 mm, and the weight does not exceed 250 grams.
The frontal panel of the brazed tablet over the entire perimeter of a thin insert from the mirror silver plastic "under metal", which is noticeably expanding in the area of \u200b\u200bthe lower face. Under the screen is made exclusively the manufacturer's logo, but above the screen you can find not only a webcam for 1.6 megapixel, but also the light sensor, as well as a single speaker hidden under the cellular grid.
Most of the rear panel Lenovo IdeaTab S5000 is made of silver plastic with fine texture and only in its bottom there is a mirror insert "under metal". In the center of the back is placed a relief logo of the company, in the upper right corner - a large lens of the main chamber by 5 MP with autofocus, but without a flash.
The left side of the case is completely free, on the right there are the power button and the volume control key. An exclusively audio jack was made on the top face, you can find the Micro USB port with OTG (on-the-Go) and built-in microphone.
Display
The Lenovo IdeaTab S5000 tablet is equipped with a 7-inch IPS matrix with a resolution of 1280 per 800 points, which for this diagonal corresponds to the density of pixel 215 PPI. The backlight brightness is manually adjusted from 45 to 355 kD / m2, automatic adjustment is also available under the conditions of external illumination. The capacitive touch layer supports up to 5 simultaneous touches, the quality of the oleophobic coating is average.
Functionality
The device is based on a hardware platform from MediaTek, and the MTK 8125 processor is used for the Wi-Fi version of the S5000-F tablet, and for the 3G version of S5000-H - MTK 8389. This system-on-chip contains PowerVR SGX544 graphics and four Cortex computing kernels -A7 with a passport working frequency of 1.5 GHz, however, the developers of the tablet limited its level of 1.2 GHz for greater energy savings. As a result, the performance of the device does not hurt records, but it is quite enough for casual games and multimedia entertainment.
The amount of RAM is 1 GB, and the data warehouse container is 16 GB of which the user is available 12.9 GB. Expand the data warehouse will not work, since Lenovo IdeaTab S5000 is not equipped with a microSD memory card slot. From the full charge of the battery, 3450 mAh tablet is able to work 6 hours in video playback mode and about 8 hours in web browing mode. The tablet is equipped with Bluetooth 4.0 modules, Wi-Fi 802.11n, an optional 3G module with a Micro-SIM card, as well as a hardware GPS receiver, which allows the use of this model as navigator.
Interface
The Lenovo IdeaTab S5000 tablet works running operating system Android 4.2.2, and the manufacturer guarantees updating at least to version 4.3. The corporate interface has a number of differences from the standard, in particular, the default application shortcuts are taken on working tables with end-to-passing, the selected section for applications is missing.
In addition to the usual notifications and settings panels at the bottom of the main window there is an additional settings panel. Especially note the corporate power dispatcher, allowing you to estimate energy consumption by specific programs and hardware components, as well as finely adjust the power consumption parameters for itself. Calling this utility can be made from the settings menu or using an informative widget combined with the task dispatcher.
Ergonomics
From the point of view of Ergonomics, Lenovo Ideatab S5000 is very similar to a large smartphone. Thin, light and not too wide housing makes it easily controlled with this tablet with one hand. The location of the microphone, the dynamics and the presence of the approximation sensor is simply created for voice calls in Skype, which is especially important for the 3G version of the model.
The layout of the buttons will require addiction, since at first there is a light confusion due to the fact that the inclusion keys and volume controls are usually distributed over different faces or put the main ON / OFF button above the "rocker".

RESULTS
As a result, we can recommend Lenovo Ideatab S5000 to those users who are looking for a stylish miniature tablet for every day. This budgetary model looks great and is equipped with everything necessary for comfortable work, excluding the support of memory cards.
However, the main problem of this tablet lies not in it itself, but in a competitive environment, because for the same money that you ask for it in Ukraine you can buy a much more interesting Asus Google Nexus. 7 (2013). If Lenovo Ideatab S5000 would cost here as much as he was in the USA (at the moment about $ 180), then he had more likely more chances for success.

The company has long been on the market. It can not be called completely Chinese, because it was formed as a result of the merger of the Chinese Legend Holdings and the American IBM Personal Systems Group. Now Lenovo successfully produces computer equipment of different types, including portable devices. As a rule, its products are distinguished by unique features that beneficially stand out against the background of competing solutions.

In addition to desktop computers, laptops I. smartphones Lenovo. offers two main line of tablets. The Think Series Devices are designed for business, and models labeled with the word IDEA are more oriented towards multimedia use.
Thus, S series tablets are positioned as advanced stylish devices running on the basis of the Android operating system. Lenovo IdeaTab S5000-H is a seven-wing thin, lightweight and fairly productive tablet, the design of which is repeated by smartphones of the company.
In fact, we are in an inexpensive middling, which should be interested in its appearance, ease of use and cheerful hardware stuffing.
advertising
On the other hand, there is a sufficient number of similar devices of different manufacturers. Compact S5000-H will stand in one row with ASUS Nexus 7, LG G Pad, Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 and others. Less famous companies can also offer their own options, including Huawei MediaPad 7 Classic, Wexler Tab 7T and others. So Ideatab S5000-H in this regard is not alone. And those Lenovo engineers are harder - on the background of the whole manifold, they must show something interesting.
We will talk more about alternatives later, but for now, let's turn to the review of the hero of the review. IDEATAB S5000 comes in two versions: Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi / 3G. The latter arrived on testing. Both versions are equipped with 16 GB of permanent memory and are available in silver-black. Option only with Wi-Fi will cost about 10 thousand rubles, and for the presence of 3G will need to pay for another 2 thousand.
The Lenovo S5000 tablet received a rather elegant appearance. This modest size and lightweight apparatus can be a full-fledged companion through convenience and practical possibilities.
Design
Almost the entire frontal part of the tablet is closed protective glass, Only below is a small strip of plastic. The main part of the rear case is made of a pleasant touch and a little ribbed silver plastic. This material, - does not slip in the hands, does not leave the fingerprints, and it was possible to confuse it with the metal. Back cover The devices are non-removable, in the middle there is a departed manufacturer's logo, and in the upper left corner - the master chamber lens.
Display
The device is equipped with 7 test. IPS display at a resolution of 1280x800 pix. Someone can such permission will seem very small today, but this deficiency cannot seriously spoil the impression of the device.
Interface
The tablet works running OP android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, but the manufacturer declared the possibility of updating the firmware through OTA to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.
The shell of the tablet is significantly different from standard interfaceswhich we could watch in other android devices. Probably the most notable innovation was the refusal of the application menu. Instead of this icon of all installed utilities are displayed directly on the desktops, and you can independently move between other screens and collect in folders.
Camera
The device received 5MP basic and 1.6-MP frontal camera. The shooting application opens in 2 seconds; It supports plot shooting, adjusts the balance of white, exposure and other image formats.
The quality of the photo is not very high - the device is absolutely not intended for systematic photographing.
Wireless networks
Wi-Fi Model supports 802.11b / g / n standards with a frequency of 2.4 GHz. Bluetooth version 3.0 or 4.0 modules, depending on the model. Also present GPS with A-GPS support.
Apparatus in work
The device is supplied in two types - with 3G support and without it, as "3G model" and "Wi-Fi model" (the latter in Russia is practically not found). Different options received different chipsets. Wi-Fi works on the MEDIATEK MT8125 platform, and 3G - on MediaTek MT8389. There are practically no difference between these chipsets: both processors have 4 Arm Cortex-A7 cores with a frequency of 1.2 GHz, the PowerVR SGX5444MP2 graph is equipped with the same performance.
Volume of operational I. internal memory is 1 and 16 GB, respectively. Expand using memory cards can not be, but there is a connection method external drives With a USB host.
Autonomous work
The device is equipped with non-removable lithium-ion battery 3,450 mAh. It is charging about two and a half hours. The volume of the battery is modest, but sufficient for such a tablet. In addition, the size of the battery could not be increased without losing a small mass of the device.
RESULTS
The tablet is not a novelty, and it has drawbacks. He does not suit as a full game device or a manufacturer of high-quality pictures. But if you want an inexpensive device that can be carried with you constantly, then he a good option, especially considering its weight and sizes.
The average cost is 8000 rubles.
