Recent experience (first) with a Lenovo Tab 8 had me scratching my head.
It's USB (~charging) port could communicate with a PC for file transfer, but couldn't read a memory stick. This with all the recommended OTG cabling.
Why would you stick a communicative USB port on a battery-operated device and then restrict it from acting as a USB host?
Is this normal?
Is this sane?
I know there are a multitude of other methods of com available for these devices, but why not simple USB stick transfer?
