Extreme by name and extreme by nature. Tablets don’t get much bigger than this, with its enormous 14.5-inch screen. The Lenovo Tab Extreme is bigger than an iPad Pro or a Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, but is it better than those similarly giant tablets or is the Lenovo Tab Extreme a big waste of time? Here’s our review.
