Lenovo A1000 is a 7-inch tablet with Jelly Bean

CNET Editors' Take

Hands-on with Lenovo's two new 7-inch tablets

With Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and a 1.2GHz processor, this 7-inch tablet is entering a very crowded marketplace. There's 16GB of storage on-board, front-facing speakers and it's available in black or white.

These days, I can't help but be disappointed when a 7-incher features anything less than a 1,280x800 screen resolution. Call me spoiled, but recent entries in the 7-inch market have simply raised my expectations and this doesn't leave much room for the A1000's 1,024x600 7-inch screen to impress. Text was noticeably blurry, there was visible warping whenever I tapped the screen, and the TN panel provided only narrowest of viewing angles.

Check out our hands-on video above, and browse our picture galley below for a closer look.
