    Lenovo tabs are great for the budget conscious buyers except for long term software support but Lenovo has been improving in that department too

      According to their roadmap, the P12 will have software support till 2027, I find that acceptable tbh and a nice change compared to most of their other tabs.

      @@yaahoo_movies Yes, till June 2027 for the P12, model TB370FU. Afaik, only Samsung beats it with support till 2028 for the Tab S9 FE/ S9 FE Plus in that category/price range when it comes to long term support. Depending on where your focus lies, esp the S9 FE could therefore be a strong contender coz there s been some deals for the 256GB/ 8GB Ram model recently.

    Great build for tablet gaming:
    - Lenovo Legion Y700 (2023 version) 16gb RAM/512gb storage (SD storage too). Also, the size is just over under 9", perfect size for handheld gaming imo. It has some super powerful parts and can handle pretty much any game, especially with DDR5 RAM.
    - Install plenty of emulators; I'm pretty certain you can even get a Nintendo Switch emulator now.
    - For controller, use the BSP-D10s, it's a fantastic, telescopic controller that makes the tablet truly feel like a handheld gaming device. Plus, it's an affordable controller. BSP controllers are quickly getting better and better, and their latest installments are the best.
    - As for PS4 emulators, idk if we're there yet, but we do have PS3 emulators. A lot of awesome games and Android is perfect for running whatever you please.
    - The tablet is cheap now, and for the powerful parts it has, you can't go wrong, even if you don't use it for gaming (I mainly use it as a reader for manga).
    Further specs:
    Battery: 6550MaH battery (45W fast charge).
    Screen: IPS LCD, 144Hz, Dolby Vision, HDR10, 500 nits, 8.8".
    CPU: Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1; Octa-core (1x3.19 GHz Cortex-X2 & 3x2.75 GHz Cortex-A710 & 4x1.80 GHz Cortex-A510).
    GPU: Adreno 730
    (Can also get a 12gb/256gb version that's cheaper, in case you don't need the crazy RAM size...16 is crazy for a tablet, especially DDR5.)
    All that for around £200, can't go wrong. Also, the controller is around £20-£30, but worth it. I've looked, and looked, and looked, but no other better tablet gaming controller exists (it fits around the tablet, almost like a case, but I'm certain it can even fit tablets up to around 12.5" iirc).

    I would recommend it, love my Y700, this and the p12 can replace a laptop for sure. Very minimal bugs in ZUI 15. It doesn't have OLED but it is an extremely high end IPS panel at least the y700 is and I never crave a OLED. Lenovo is the only tab maker I know of who has high end haptics on tablets a swell, the y700 is the only tablet I can type on due to the vibrations on Gboard for it.

    • @naruhearts1

      I love my y700, to me the only downside ive had is the side USB-C being a low power port, it doesnt work normally with USB C tablet telescopic controllers like the G8 Galileo. I had to get a cable to connect the G8 to the port on the long side of the tablet.

    You often hear that you can't pair your headphones via Bluetooth with this Lenovo tab P12. Well, that's not true, because it is possible. Only it pairs surprisingly differently. If you pair your headphones via your smartphone and always do, then pair your phone with your Lenovo tab p12. Everything that is in your smartphone, the Lenovo tab p12 copies and saves. Does your headphones work on your smartphone? Then it also works on your Lenovo tap p12! I paired my smartphone Samsung S21 Plus, and now I listen to music and movies wirelessly without a cable via my Lenovo Tab P12 Tablet

    Lenovo tablets are good values but the dealbreakers for me are the expensive accessories... The keyboard case itself I feel is not worth getting if we buy it separately. And bundle deals aren't always available for international customers 😕

    • @AndroidDigest
      @AndroidDigest  6 месяцев назад +7

      I see it differently in the US. Not only are their bundles... But Samsung charges over $100 for every accessory, their book cover keyboard is always around $200 vs $100 for Lenovo's. Compared to Samsung it seems decent. But I get international markets can be different

    This is my daily driver for around the house use and for work. I also own an iPad and honestly I use this more because I love the general flexibility offered by Android.
    The pen works decently well, too. It multitasks very well and it has the horsepower to handle most things for daily productivity. I honestly wouldn't game on it, but I don't game on my tablets for the most part.
    The build is awesome, it has four glorious sounding speakers, and that screen is GORGEOUS.
    Definitely happy with it and feel like I got my money's worth, and that's because I bought it at full price.

The battery for productivity is great and the screen, even though it's 60Hz, thanks to the resolution, movies look great. The only detail about the screen is the brightness, since it's not enough if you use it outside. But for the price, it's an excellent purchase with a keyboard and stylus.

    • @AndroidDigest
      @AndroidDigest  6 месяцев назад +4

      Yeah that's not a bad comparison. You're basically paying $80 for that OLED screen. The duet will have more updates because Chrome OS has more updates. It will have a little more versatility between operating systems, I think the P12 will have a better resolution, and it's going to be a little bit cheaper, and run Android, and running Android by itself without Chrome OS has some perks too. Think it depends on what people are looking at.
      I've got a couple plans, a few plans even over the next few weeks. But I'll keep this in mind

    Today I ordered this tablet from Best Buy while it was on sale and almost walked out the store with it and requested a refund due to BB's short refund window and being so close to BF sales.
    I like Lenovo to a degree and I'm a current owner of the M10 Plus FHD. I've had my tablet for about 3 years but there are a few things that frustrate me about Lenovo. The screen brightness is not great and the brighter it is the more it drains the battery. I've had to replace the USB charging cable multiple times. Then another issue is that the tablet randomly shuts off and restart while browsing or watching videos.
    Lenovo is a decent tablet brand but for me I need something a little better.

      For those comparing this to the Samsung S9 FE+ it really ones down to if you are going to be using Dex. Even dex mode on the tablet itself it worth it if you will use that. Having said as much still not as capable as ChromeOS as far as extensions go.

      The P12, at least in the US, will be a little worse vs the redmi pad pro, at least when we are talking about raw specs. The US version of the P12 has a 60hz display, and it has a slower processor by a little bit vs the redmi. But I know the P12 has been coming with a pen in the US. And price matters. So I'm not sure what prices you are seeing, but the P12 is still great, but the Redmi beats it out by a bit on the hardware.

    Hi... Great review. I am looking for a specific answer. Will this tab be good for office 365 work, Data science/Machine Learning related programming and also artwork creation. I am new to the field of AI/ML and still learning. My old laptop does not support most programming softwares and thus I plan to invest in a good tablet rather than buying another laptop because my old one is still functional. So it would be a waste unnecessarily to buy another expensive laptop for this purpose. Please suggest me. Thanks a lot!

      That's outside of my realm. No idea what is needed for data science/machine learning. But I will say, as long as you don't need Windows programs, an android tablet would be okay. But I'm not sure what Windows programs you need. If I were doing heavier work though I'd probably at least want a Tab S9 FE or a Tab S9 FE Plus. Or maybe something just a little more powerful then this

      @@AndroidDigest I'll look into this for sure. Thanks for getting back. It's a compromise between having something handy and on the go with a android tablet vs the overrated stability that windows offers in most laptops. I don't find it that useful somehow. It's annoying though that most tablets that have the kind of processivity that I need do not have the basics of cellular data presence and headphone jacks. Too many things to consider other than that too. I hope I find a decent bargain. Thanks again.

      @@AndroidDigest I am currently considering Lenovo. It's budget friendly and seems good for most of my work since I am only getting started. I hope it's a good choice! The specs of P12, P12 pro and P11 second gen match my needs with some differences in performance for my specific needs. But that's what I see on paper. Never used Lenovo before. I hope I am making the right choice. The only disappointment for now is the absence of cellular data and headphone jacks in the P12 model which I had almost finalized. And then the M11 has these two things but it's not entirely cutout for my work per se. Again, thanks for your input.

      Most tablets can't access cell phone networks. If you go to a store, 99% of the tablets are wifi only, you just turn your hotspot on your phone with 1 button press and it can share your internet anyway. BUT for those who want it, you can look for "5G" in the title or description. Often it costs like $100 more, but you will find some tablets out there that have it, but it is rare.

    • @AndroidDigest
      @AndroidDigest  5 месяцев назад +1

      The S9 is significantly faster, by a large margin. And the screen is better with amoled. The only plus to getting the P12 is the size. I'd argue the S9 FE Plus is a better option if you want something larger, but even then the S9 will be better overall, than the S9 FE Plus.
      If we are talking best tablet overall:
      Tab S9, S9 Ultra, S9 Plus (best, but depends on what size you prefer, and price)
      Tab S8 Ultra
      Tab S9 FE Plus/Tab S9 FE
      Tab P12
      Galaxy Tab S6 Lite 2024
      Tab A9+
      Tab M11
      Now just because I have a list as far as what's best, remember that you often pay for screen size. Even then, the S9 FE Plus and S8 Ultra are both better.
      The P12 is for someone who really wants that screen size but they want to pay less than $300. The S9 FE Plus, S8 Ultra, and S9 Ultra, S9 Plus, all of those will cost over $300, normally $450 or higher.
      But if you have the money, I'd buy the S9 or one of these other tablets, the P12 is great, but for those who again need that screen size at a cheaper price. And you compromise performance when you do that.
