The specs are pretty impressive on the Nook/Lenovo tablet, and it costs almost $200 less than the iPad 10.2 ($129 vs $319). The Lenovo is lighter, has a slightly longer advertised battery life, the storage can be expanded up to an additional terabyte, it has an Octa-Core CPU, Dolby Atmos dual speakers, 8 MP rear camera (like the iPad) and a 5 MP front camera (compared to the iPad's 1.2) — I realize MP size doesn't always mean that much. Both come with the same 32 GB basic storage. The iPad has a better screen, but the Nook's 1200x800 on a 10.1" screen is not bad. Mostly, though, the price puts these in two completely different classes. The Nook will fit in many more budgets than the iPad 10.2.
