The facia seen in the patent image is further seen with a USD fork suspension and dual radial brake calipers. The rear profile of the BYD e-scooter as seen in the patent drawings feature a coaxially mounted swingarm that is linked to the motor.

Alright, let’s picture this: You are relaxing in your favorite spot at your home and ready to get into your next gaming adventure. But, instead for reaching for a bulky and huge laptop, you take soothing smaller and unexpected. That is when you realize you are holding the Lenovo Legion Tab. This is a compact powerhouse that is designed to surprise you. It is lightweight, fits perfectly in your one hand, but do not its size fool you. Lenovo has taken their Legion gaming reputation and unfolded it into this portable device. Now, here’s the real question. Can this tiny tablet really keep up with the demands of a hardcore gamer? Through this thorough review, let’s find out.
At first look, the Lenovo Legion look like a regular tablet. It has a sleek and clean design that gives it a minimalistic yet premium vibe. I have received the Storm Grey color variant which looks elegant. The tablet is made using the metal mostly except for the display and its bezels. It feels solid and durable in hand. Its smaller display makes it much more comfortable while playing games. And at just 350 grams, it is impressively light.
Now coming to the ports and buttons. A MicroSD card slot and a 10Gbps USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 2) port that enables display port, OTG, and charging are located on the left side. The power and volume controls are located on the right side. The top and bottom have speaker grills. Besides, you will also find a USB 2.0 port at the bottom for OTG and charging functionality.
Display
The Lenovo Legion Tab has a decent display for its size. It comes with 8.8-inch display with 2560 x 1600p resolution. I immediately noticed it smoothness thatnks to its 144Hz refresh rate that makes gaming a lot smoother. This is especially useful for fast-paced games like BGMI that supports up to 120fps. You can even lock the refresh rate at 144Hz or adjust it according to your need.
The display also supports Dolby Vision HDR10. That means, watching movies or binge-watching your favorite web series is a treat. I watched the Kalki 2898 AD on this laptop and the colors and clarity were great. However, the tablet is not great for outdoor use because of reflections. Anyways, I didn’t mind, since most of my gaming happens indoors.
The screen’s 16:10 aspect ratio and pixel density of 343 ppi make everything crisp. It is a great screen for both gaming and entertainment. I personally found it a solid upgrade from using my phone for the same tasks.
The Lenovo Legion Tab is powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip. During my gaming sessions, I did not notice any issues with graphics or frame rates. I played BGMI at max settings for around 15-20 minutes, and although the tablet got slightly warm, it never became uncomfortably hot. Games like Shadow Fight 4 and Call of Duty ran smoothly. Honestly, I enjoyed playing them more on the Legion Tab than on my phone. If I talk about my experience, it took me some time to get used to the larger screen controls. But once I got the hang of it, going back to my phone felt awkward.
Now coming to the sound. It was a nice surprise. It is loud with decent bass, something you don’t usually get with most tablets or phones. The Android 14 OS on the tablet felt familiar. The tablet does have two USB-C ports: one on the top and one on the bottom. This made it easy to charge no matter how I was holding the device, whether in handheld mode or upheld up on a table. It is a small detail, but it made a big difference during gameplay.
Camera
The Lenovo Legion Tab has a 13MP rear camera. For a tablet, it performs decently. It has basic features like a flashlight and HDR mode. During the day, the camera takes quite good pictures, which is more than enough for casual use. The 2X zoom feature surprised me, as zoomed-in pictures sometimes looked better than normal ones.
The front 8MP camera is alright for selfies and video calls, with average detail. The rear camera can also record videos in 4K at 30FPS, which is a nice bonus for quick video clips.
Battery
For me, the battery life on the Lenovo Legion Tab has been good. Even after long sessions of watching videos, gaming, browsing, and doing some light work like typing, the battery lasted about two days on average. Anyways, the battery life varies depending upon the settings, the game you are playing, the time duration. But it holds up pretty well overall.
The price of the Lenovo Legion Tab is Rs. 39,999. Its small size makes it a fantastic choice for gamers who are often on the run. Even if we put gaming on the back foot, the tablet is still a highly capable device for daily tasks. Even though it might not be the least expensive tablet, it is an ideal option for gamers searching for a small, powerful device.

Bengaluru resident hangs a warning placard on her Ola e-scooter
Warns customers from buying new Ola e-scooter
Complaints filed with the District Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission
Ola Electric has been taking massive leaps in the EV segment. After successfully building a niche with e-scooters it has taken up the e-motorcycle space as well with the recently launched Roadster series. While Ola promises top class after sales services, the user experiences shared online have suggested otherwise. Ola had been in the news for frequent challenges which its consumer-base as been reporting with after sales services and even the e-scooter’s breakdown. In the latest scenario, a Bengaluru women pasted a placard on her Ola e-scooter warning potential consumers of buying it. What is the latest case and what does Ola respond on the matter?

Ola Electric seems to have landed in soup once again. This time a Bengaluru resident shared a post on the microblogging website X tagging Ola and warning citizens from adhering to purchase an Ola e-scooter. The e-scooter owner, Nisha C Shekhar, apparently got fed up with the multiple breakdowns she had to experience post the purchase. That’s not it, the customer has also been unhappy with the response of the service center and no resolution being provided for the issue.
As per the post, the customer received the e-scooter after a system update from the service center. However, the issue didn’t get resolved and she had to drag and pull the e-scooter for a km at night. The post shared on X shows the placard on the Ola e-scooter stating, “Dear Kannadigas, Ola is a useless two-wheeler. If you buy one, it will only make your life hard. Please do not buy an Ola Electric scooter.”
Ola is unresponsive on this matter as of now and is yet to acknowledge this incident. However, the customer has gone ahead and filed a complaint with the District Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission. It would be interesting to see how Ola addresses this new issue and what resolution it will offer finally to the troubled customer.
Imaging holding a mobile phone in your hand that looks like it belongs in the premium range. But, without a hefty price tag. That’s what exactly Vivo is offering with its recently launched T3 Ultra 5G. From the very first glimpse, it is clear that Vivo has packed the design of its higher-end models into this mid-range beauty. From the sleek, minimalist finish to the eye-catching colors, the T3 Ultra feels like a phone made to impress. But, is it just all about looks? Or, does it perform as well? Here, I have put the Vivo T3 Ultra 5G through its paces, and here’s what I found out. Let’s begin.
Pros
Cons
Sleek, premium design
No wireless charging support
Good display
Bloatware and pre-installed apps
Dimensity 9200+ chipset
Decent battery
Good front camera

Design
I have had a strong first impression of the Vivo T3 Ultra 5G the moment I took it out of the box. It feels solid in the hand and definitely giving a premium vibe with just the right amount of weight. The device weighs 192 grams and measures 7.58 mm thick, which gives it a nice balance between lightweight and slim. The smooth matte finish on its back feels nice to touch. However, while the aesthetics scream high-end, the company has opted for a plastic frame instead of metal. This might leave some users questioning its durability. But at this price point, I think it is a compromise that’s understandable.
The front of the Vivo T3 Ultra 5G features an optical fingerprint sensor. It is quick and responsive, though its placement is a bit low for my liking. And while there’s no headphone jack, the smartphone does offer IP68 water and dust resistance.
On the top of the device, the phrase ‘Professional Portrait’ subtly etched. At the bottom, there’s a SIM card tray that supports two nano SIM cards, a USB Type-C 2.0 port, the primary microphone, and speaker. Coming to the left side, things are kept clean with no buttons or ports. On its right side, there’s the power button and volume rockers. This layout is practical, and the buttons are positioned just right for one-handed use.
Display
If I talk about the display, this is where the Vivo T3 Ultra 5G starts to shine. The device has 6.78-inch AMOLED screen along with a 3D curved design. If you are like me and appreciate a curved display, you will definitely love how immersive it feels, especially when watching content. The screen offers a 2800 x 1260 resolution. It is set to FHD by default. So, if you want the full 1.5K experience, you will need to head into the settings and turn it up.
The color tuning options are a nice touch. I mostly stick with Standard for natural tones, but you can switch to Professional for warmer colors or Bright for a cooler and more vibrant look. So, whether you are scrolling through Instagram or watching a Netflix series, everything looks vibrant and sharp.
Comin to the refresh rate, it has 120Hz. But it is not LTPO. So, there’s no adaptive refresh rate here. At 4500 nits for HDR content and 1200 nits for regular use, it has a decent peak brightness. While it is not the brightest display out there, it undoubtedly holds up well under most lighting conditions. Streaming content or watching videos is a treat on this screen, especially with the refined curves that make everything feel a bit more cinematic. The bezels can seem uneven due to the curve, but honestly, it didn’t bother me much. Lastly, the punch-hole cutout is well-placed. This keeps the overall design sleek and clean.
Performance
The Vivo T3 Ultra 5G is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ chipset. Well, it is the same flagship processor we saw in high-end devices like Vivo X90 Pro. However, now it has been carried to a more affordable device. The smartphone offers up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB storage. So undoubtedly, it can easily handle multitasking, gaming, and just about anything you throw at it. But you know, what’s the icing on the cake? It is the vapor cooling system. It helps to manage the heat effectively. During my time with it, the phone stayed surprisingly cool even after hours of gaming and heavy use, which I think is great.
In day-to-day use, apps open quickly, switching between them is smooth. I personally did not experience any noticeable lag. Well, I guess that is the power of the Dimensity 9200+ chipset. It gives you that flagship-level performance without burning a hole in your pocket.
Coming to the stereo speakers, it is decent but not revolutionary of course. They are loud enough for watching videos or listening to music, but the stereo separation is not as strong as I would have liked. So, if you are someone who prefers really loud speakers, this could be a bit of a letdown.
Software
The Vivo T3 Ultra runs on Funtouch OS 14. It offers a smooth and customizable experience. Vivo also promises three years of software updates and four years of security updates. However, there is a fair amount of bloatware on board which I didn’t like. You will be greeted by prompts to open the V-Appstore upon booting up, which can get annoying pretty quickly. While you can uninstall most pre-installed apps, but some like the V-Appstore is stuck on the device, and you might want to disable notifications to avoid the constant pop-ups.
That said, Funtouch OS 14 does come with some handy features, especially for photo enthusiasts. The AI Eraser and Photo Enhance tools are great for quick edits, and the camera app offers extensive watermark customization options. The animations are smooth, though I did miss some of the fun wallpaper effects like zooming and blur that we see in other custom Android skins.
Camera
The camera system on the vivo T3 Ultra is packed with features that make it a strong contender in its price range.
Let’s start with the main camera, that is, 50MP Sony IMX 921. Well, it performs decent in various lighting conditions, especially in low light. The details are sharp, colors are vibrant, and the shimmer on reflective surfaces is captured accurately. Even in ultra-low light, I found the detail retention impressive. Although, a slower shutter speed could improve overall lighting balance.
However, the main camera shines in the well-lit environments. It provides great color accuracy and detail retention. The edge detection works well for portrait shots. The bokeh effect is also smooth.
Coming to the 8MP OmniVision OV08D10 ultra-wide camera, it does a decent job, especially in well-lit conditions. In low light, detail retention is impressive. However, when zooming in, some textures struggle to retain sharpness.
Portrait shots are decent, but not perfect. The edge detection can be hit or miss, but facial details are generally well-captured. It may not compete with flagship portrait cameras, but for the price, it holds its own.
The 50MP Samsung JN1 selfie camera is one of the standouts. In low light, the phone’s screen adds just the right amount of illumination. In well-lit conditions, selfies come out sharp with minimal smoothing. Colors are accurate, and the image quality overall is impressive for a front-facing camera.
Battery
The Vivo T3 Ultra is powered by the 5,500mAh battery capacity. During my usage, it easily lasted a full day on medium usage. This includes social media browsing, watching videos, and some web surfing. By the end of the day, there was still some power left. This means you won’t need to rush for a charger in the evening.
Coming to the charging speed, it provides 80W wired fast charging. You can get 0 to 100 percent in just an hour. However, lack of wireless charging is a downside, especially in this price range.
Giznext’s Final Verdict
Model
Price
8GB RAM + 128GB Storage
Rs. 31,999
8GB RAM + 256GB Storage
Rs. 33,999
12GB RAM + 256GB Storage
Rs. 35,999
So, is the Vivo T3 Ultra worth your hard-earned money? Well, if you want a phone that feels premium but doesn’t hit your wallet too hard, this one is definitely a winner. With its sharp display, decent battery life, and good camera performance, it is a steal. However, if wireless charging or loud speakers are must-haves for you, you might need to look elsewhere. For most, though, the Vivo T3 Ultra offers great value and style without the expensive price tag.
