writing repressed idiot quinn hughes is the only thing that's getting me through the end of the semester so have this i guess

[quinhues]

silent or tear for the ask game!!

or both!!

silent [tab 4]

Luke looks back and forth at the two of them, lost. He, evidently, hadn't heard the not-quite-silent close of the front door last night. He hadn't gotten out of bed to investigate, found nothing, and then poked his head into their big brother's room to discover that the culprit was, in fact, not trying to break in, but had broken out.

tear [tab 2]

It feels so stupid to say that he's missed this, because it’s always been about missing Luke, not about how he’s all lean muscle and boney joints, or how his collarbone is crushed up against the bridge of Quinn’s nose in a way that kind of hurts, but—but he did, he did miss it, and Luke doesn’t even say any of the mean and probably true thoughts he’s likely thinking about Quinn right now, just lets Quinn cling to him. He doesn’t even complain about the way Quinn’s definitely getting tears and snot all over his sweatshirt, either, which is nice of him. At some point, Luke's hand comes up and starts rubbing circles on Quinn’s back, and that's even nicer.

thank you for the ask!!!! i love doing these

(ask game here)

[quinhues]

Omg tab 4 we are soooo back!!

tab 4 !!!!!! i've been thinking a lot about her lately..... probably because i've keep listening to the noah kahan album (because i'm a masochist ig) and there are so many songs on there for tab 4........porch light in particular 🫪🫪

it's one of the (mayyyybe) two wips i have that i went into explicitly looking to write a jack pov, which i was nervous about at first---but it's really grown on me. i like being able to look at quinn in the blender from an outside perspective... like seeing him spin around but not knowing what kind of smoothie he's in LMFAO

i'm also seriously considering adding some luke pov..... jack spends a lot of the fic generally feeling angry (frustrated at quinn, frustrated at himself for not being able to get over it) and betrayed (that quinn didn't tell him, and then later that [redacted 🙂]) and i fear i could get tired of writing that over and over again. meanwhile luke's feelings are a little more varied and generally milder..............could be interesting

anyway i've been poking at it every time tab 2 starts giving me grief or i start hitting a wall. as we all know, i love writing angst and miscommunication and if i can put all 3 hugheses in the blender about it a little, even better.....

[quinhues]

I have not stopped turning over one of the answers of an ask you got and like it's giving me reallyyyy bad ideas of putting qh in the blender, especially after he looked so defeated today when avs won

Like he's so used to being the guy who everyone is dependent on, (lowkey even today that tying goal was all him doing a hail mary) and in general being the reliable guy, and he's so not used to actually looking after himself properly and indulging himself

he always has this haze of sadness that's bearing down on him, making everything heavier on his bad days but isn't that so normal hahaha, doesn't everyone just have some days where it's impossible to get out of bed or cook or do anything at alll, it's not like it's a problem and he still answers his (important) calls even if he skips the texting

and everything is fine when the hockey is good, it makes it easier to breathe, easier to go back to his empty apartment, eat whatever his team packed him, and sleep until practise the next day, and it's also kinda ok when the hockey is bad and it seems that all they do is lose, lose and lose, and he can't afford to have an off day because everything will collapse otherwise, and so what if he doesn't understand how 712 or kirill and zuccy or the folignos can laugh around even after the bad losses or how a trip to the bar can lighten the mood when it just makes him feel suffocated

but maybe he just needs a break and to sleep for a few days straight (actually) so his bone weary tiredness can finally go away even though he doesn't think that this tiredness is because of hockey and he's sure that jack and luke will understand if he doesn't call for a while and just sleeps through whatever this is and that the wild guys will understand if he doesn't respond because he's still kinda the new guy anyways and they won't have to worry

YES YES YES YES GOOD EXCELLENT (also i’m super super curious which ask you’re talking about!!) i ran away a little with my hrpf hat on in this one, hope that’s alright haha

oh man yeah. like, all the hughes boys have hockey as such a central part of their lives that could be sooooo influential on their emotions; but i have to think that it affects quinn especially, in part due to oldest daughter/high performer syndrome, but also bc unlike jack & luke, who have each other, quinn doesn’t really have anybody who’s going to immediately notice and pull him out of it if he starts feeling really low. because he is the reliable one, the steady one, the one who doesn’t do big outward displays of emotion or even really talk that much. quinn’s very much someone who i think works a lot off others’ energy—like, whatever their mood is, he’s good at reflecting or managing that (see: oldest daughter syndrome). 

why would you worry about a guy who never really gives a lot of outward indicators that he’s actually Not Fine? even quinn himself understands why no one would think to check in on him…but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t still hurt, sometimes. like he spends so much time noticing everyone else and getting ahead of their needs and emotions, but no one ever seems to do that for him (idk if this is the post you were referring to, but i touch a little bit on that in this wip for tab 4, in the bottom paragraph of the middle pic)

and quinn is…Not Fine, and sometimes he wonders if he’s actually ever been Fine. it just feels like it takes more work for him to do so many of the things that everyone seems to manage, and he knows that’s probably not normal. so instead he gets really good at the few things that don’t exhaust him, and then that’s always a convenient distraction to throw out, and it always works. and then things are good when the hockey is good, and things are really good when the hockey’s really good. but when the hockey’s bad—and especially when it’s bad for an extended stretch—it’s just. what’s the point. this is the thing quinn’s supposed to be the best at and it feels like he can’t even do that right.

 it kind of makes him mad, even, that some of the other players can shoulder off the loss like that, because quinn can’t, because it’s going to bother him and pull him down until they win again, until they’re good enough again, until he’s good enough again. but then he doesn’t even really have the energy to be properly mad about it, either, so it all just ends up making him feel worse overall. and basically the only thing that makes it feel better, or at least puts a pause on feeling bad, is hiding away in his bed for as long as he can get away with it

though personally, with the wild, just generally having a better team vibe than quinn had with the canucks by the time he left—i like to imagine they do notice, at least eventually, because there’s normal quinn tired and then there’s whatever this is, quinn shucking off his gear post-game with this detached dispondence, basically ignoring what anyone is saying to him, like he can’t even hear any of it. and when they first got him, they sort of thought maybe that’s just how he was, but the thing is that they’ve gotten to know him better now, as a guy and as a teammate, and something just isn’t sitting right

cue the wild trying (with no small amount of failures) to coax him out of his depression hole, trying to figure out what he’ll agree to and what he won’t—where he’s willing to be dragged, who he’s willing to hang out with, how much social prodding they can reasonably expect from him. just trying to get him out of his head a little, because it seems like a not-great place to be at the moment

......anon you had to know this would make me ramble :)) i do love wringing a guy through the depression machine, i love collapsing his worldview into "sad and tired" and making other people realize he's not okay :) it's one of my favorite pastimes, actually

thank you for the ask!!!!

Here’s our extensive review of the Lenovo Tab 4 10.

The Android tablet market is an interesting place to be right now. Many of the big name manufacturers have taken a step back from the high-end Android tablet market, and in most markets around the world, the only high-end Android tablets you’ll find have a Samsung badge present.

Most high-end Android tablets face competition from Chromebooks, Apple iPads and Windows-powered Ultrabooks. This leaves the mid-range and lower end market sectors, where we are starting to see a number of manufacturers offer tablet computers at tempting prices.

Mid-range and lower end devices may have a similar display size to the high-end competition, but typically offer a comprised experience with fewer features and less powerful specifications. However, different manufacturers offer different compromises and if you’re in the market for an Android tablet but don’t have hundreds of dollars to spend, finding the right device can be a challenge. During the last few months, I’ve tested one of Lenovo’s Android tablet offerings, the Lenovo Tab 4 10. And today, I’m diving into the depths for our full review of one of Lenovo’s best Android-powered slates to date.

To introduce the Lenovo Tab 4 range, there are two main models – the normal model and the ‘Plus’ model. Each variant is available with an 8-inch display or a larger, 10-inch display. The Plus variant comes with greater specifications, but a slightly higher price tag as a result. We’ve been testing the Lenovo Tab 4 10 Wi-Fi Only model, but yes, it also comes in a LTE variant.

In comparison with the other Tab 4 models, this is the less powerful, larger screen model, and so far we’ve been impressed. This particular model retails for $179 (Wi-Fi Only) in the US with 16GB of storage, and can be purchased from any one of several sellers linked below. It’s available in other countries as well. For the duration of this review, please understand that what we talk about may or may not necessarily apply to the other Tab 4 models.

Display

This Lenovo Tab 4 model measures 10.1-inches by its diagonal and is composed of 1,280 by 800 pixels. This is, of course, significantly less than the majority of tablets and even smartphones that are available today. Personally, I’m unable to notice the difference most of the time. The only occasions where I do see a difference is when watching video off YouTube or Netflix, but the difference is not always massive. For writing and gaming purposes, it’s difficult to spot the screen resolution being particularly low.

Color rendition on this tablet is relatively muted compared with some competing tablets, though this trait is common with most budget tablets. Put the Lenovo Tab 4 10 next to a high-end tablet or smartphone and the difference is obvious.

One genuine weakness is that the tablet lacks an auto-brightness sensor, which means you have to manually control the brightness of the display. The tablet doesn’t get dim enough for late night use if there’s a lot of white on the display, nor does it get bright enough for use outside under sunlight, but most of the time, the tablet works as well as it needs to.

To summarize, the display is mediocre. It’s nothing special, but this means that it’s perfectly serviceable. Most people, and almost certainly the audience for the Tab 4 10, will have no issue with the display.

Hardware Specs

The Lenovo Tab 4 10 is a traditional Android tablet running Android 7.1.1 Nougat out of the box. The tablet boasts a slate form factor and comes with a modest set of specifications. At its heart, we find the Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 chipset backed up by 2GB of RAM. This is a quad-core processor clocked at 1.4GHz packing the Adreno 306 GPU. There’s one storage variant that has 16GB of on board space and a microSD card slot for expandable memory. The IPS LCD panel is composed of 1,280 by 800 pixels, and there’s a 7,000mAh battery that charges up via a microUSB port. Lenovo has not included any sort of fast charging technology. Rounding out the device’s spec sheet is Bluetooth 4.2 and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. The exterior of the device measures 247mm by 171mm by 8.3mm, and together it weighs 500g. This is not the smallest, lightest nor thinnest of tablets available today, but when holding the Lenovo Tab 4 10 with two hands, it doesn’t feel like anything out of the ordinary.

More on the specifications

Performance

With modest hardware specifications, you might be forgiven for thinking that the Lenovo Tab 4 10 is going to be a sluggish and frustrating device to use. How is it in everyday use? Before answering the question, I should clarify that everyday use for me meant web browsing, social media use, some photo editing in Google’s SnapSeed application, and editing documents using either Google Drive or Microsoft Word. Occasionally, I watch some YouTube and Netflix, and there’s some lightweight, casual gaming too. In short, nothing that sounds too demanding.

During these tasks, the Lenovo Tab 4 10 remained a consistent performer. It does not have a flagship device ‘snap,’ and whilst applications generally open consistently, there are tiny delays that for most people are unnoticeable until they use a significantly more powerful device. The Lenovo Tab 4 10 has 2GB of system RAM which can be a handicap for people who want to switch between several different games, but it should not be that big a deal.

For watching Netflix, there’s no issue whatsoever with how the device performs, and nor should there be. There were, however times when Google Docs or Microsoft Word would lag by a few characters as I was typing using a wireless keyboard, but this lag was inconsistent and rarely noticeable. In this respect, the Tab 4 10 is no different from the vast majority of Android tablets as the lags were likely caused by the operating system and wireless setup, not the tablet itself.

One test of how powerful a device is involves downloading and installing applications via Google’s Play Store in the background, whilst using another application in the foreground. It was obvious that the Lenovo Tab 4 10 was busy in the background when trying this experiment, but it was no deal breaker for me.

Design

The Lenovo Tab 4 10 has been constructed using a hard plastic material. It isn’t expensive-feeling plastic, but it’s well pieced together and feels solid and durable. The flap covering the microSD slot easily opens and closes, and there are no uneven panel gaps or sharp edges around the device. Beyond this, there is not much to like nor dislike: the design is simplistic, putting dual stereo Dolby Atmos speakers on front at the top of the device from a landscape point of view. The speakers are good. They are loud and clear, and add a lot to the tablet experience. The speakers can project sound all around the device, meaning you’ll hear good audio from all angles. Credit goes to the tablet’s virtual surround sound ability, which is great for watching video and listening to music in the living room.

Camera

Lenovo has given the Tab 4 10 both a front and rear camera, but their marketing literature makes little mention of these components. There’s a 2MP front-facing camera and a 5MP rear-facing camera. Both might be considered “serviceable,” but only under ideal lighting. The front camera is designed for video calling and images are fuzzy, and lacking in definition. The rear camera is present as a courtesy should the user wish to take a picture of something when his or her phone is not at hand, but it’s not something to be relied upon.

Software

The Lenovo Tab 4 10 runs Android 7.1.1 Nougat under a Lenovo software skin, which includes a number of special features. One is Lenovo’s ‘Productivity Mode,’ which is an attempt at biasing the user interface more for productivity and a way of altering from the stock Android look and feel. There are cosmetic changes here and there, but the device overall looks and feels reasonably close to what one gets with vanilla Android on a Nexus or Pixel.

Productivity Mode works reasonably well, though I’ve seen it force close a few times during my testing. It can also stop accessing a particular application if it’s updated whilst it’s still showing it the recent apps screen, but for the most part, if you’re patient with it, this is a welcome addition.

There are a number of bundled applications included with the Tab 4 10, including Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint, but these can easily be uninstalled if you don’t want them. Yes that’s right: these applications may be uninstalled rather than disabled, which frees up internal space.

The device also has the usual assembly of Google applications, and with access to Google’s Play Store, it’s relatively easy to add applications that fit your needs or wants. The software experience is smooth enough to use, but if you also use a more powerful device, occasional slowdown and lag will be noted and the Lenovo Tab 4 10 will not feel as snappy in use.

Battery Life

The Lenovo Tab 4 10 uses a 7,000mAh battery cell to keep things alive away from the charger. There are tablets with larger battery capacities that are similar in size, but despite this, battery life is a clear strength. Keeping the screen dim with some moderate use (plenty of Netflix), has resulted in twenty-four hours of screen on use with a single charge. More demanding duties such as writing using a paired wireless keyboard (over Bluetooth), and playing games, makes an impact on battery life, but I never saw an extrapolated screen on time of under fifteen hours when using the device with its backlight at a minimum.

Standby is also excellent thanks to Android 7.1.1 Nougat’s ‘doze on the go’ feature. The tablet doesn’t sip battery when off. You can happily bring the tablet with you on your travels and know that if you don’t use it until the evening, the battery would be largely where it was the morning before you set off.

Wrap-up

The Lenovo Tab 4 10 is a $199 device with some definite strengths and no particular weaknesses. On paper, the device has a low-end processor and mediocre display, but for watching Netflix and experiencing some lightweight gaming, this won’t matter to the majority of customers. If you want a tablet with solid battery life, good speakers and a newer version of Google’s Android OS all for a price that won’t break the bank and is otherwise adequate; the Lenovo Tab 4 10 could hit the spot.
