Both the lenovas would not take a charge. One I believe was the battery, the other was the usb charging port.... very cheaply made.

The samsung developed a black bar across the screen that kept growing in size... after a while it was unusable.

(They probably were not the top of the line from each manufacturer... but still should last longer than a few years).

I'm in my late 50's and all three were gently treated. (Not saying younger folks abuse their electronics). They never left the house. I'm sure it was just a string of bad luck for me...

So when I needed a new "tablet", decided to try a new approach... (2 in1 laptop with windows)

Hm, I think you really had bad luck .. not so nice :/ I did get me a new android tablet, because I do not enjoy the tablet mode of windows .. it's apps (as in designed for table like usw) may be ok ... I did not use that many. But as soon as you have to navigate normal windows by fingers, I find it clumsy. Android is such a different experience there. Also, a windows based machine tends to be heavier .. and since i read a lot on tablets, weight is very key, as that can very quickly tire at least my hands .. I'm moving towards 50
