I bought a couple Lenovo A1 tablets for the kids for Christmas. At $195, they seemed a bargain. Overall, the build quality is very good, but they are having stability problems, resetting sporadically, which can have messy effects at 2:00 am, when we are using them as white noice devices/alarm clocks. of the 6 nights we used the devices, they reset 5 of those nights.

The device platform is relatively new (3 mos for Lenovo AFAIK), and Lenovo doesn't seem to have a knowledge base built up, so it's hard to tell when they might work out stabilty quirks.

Is this level of stability typical of all android devices? (I'm a BB user and wife has an iPhone). or does Lenovo have some work to do? So, if I return these and spring for the 7" Galaxy tabs, will I have the same low level of instabilty?

I'm trying to decide whether to stick it out and hope for software updates that will improve stability or return them and look at different devices (Samsung? IPads?).

I have a couple days to act on an RMA and get a full refund.

Thanks,
