LENOVO has this on their website for $120 right now! And last week Best Buy had it for $130. I'm sure it will go on sale again. This is basically a slightly slower A9+ yet at a much better price, and the software updates are better than expected (clarification below).

Got this for €170 with the pen and folio case included. All I want it for is some very basic sketching and I liked that I wouldn't have to buy anything extra. I originally wanted the iPad Mini but I was frankly appalled that they were asking 600 for a 60 htz screen. When I realised I'd have to buy the pen and case on top, I thought "sod it" and just went with a cheap option that would get the job done. And it does!
Surely Lenovo never lets its consumers down. Got a Lenovo Tab K11 LTE offering great value with its sleek design, ample storage, and reliable connectivity with Helio G88 SoC.

3:28 as someone who used to buy all Apple and started switching to Samsung about a year ago, having been on both sides of the coin, I think this is an incorrect take for the market that buys lower-end products. Apple is 100% right to not allocate a portion of a device's build budget to refresh rate except at the top end, because the general public simply does not care. I know zero people in real life who can tell a significant difference between 60hz and 120hz. I know few people who can tell the difference at all, even side by side. In the circles that watch tech reviews for fun whether they're thinking about buying the product or not, there are more people who care about it, but let's be real, those people are usually just gonna buy the best. I mean, here I am with a Z Fold and Tab Ultra. Sure, they're previous gen models I got secondhand to save some money, but I picked those over a newer mid-range because I like bells and whistles. And even I can't tell the difference between 60 and 120hz. I turn 120hz off to save battery on any device I get that offers it, I play PC games on a 60hz TV despite having a very good GPU, etcetera, etcetera. I think I left 90hz on for my Oculus Quest because that's right on my face and tracks real-time head movements, but before I got my new PC there were lots of games I set to 60 for consistent framerates and it didn't really bother me. I guess my side tangent about personal experience isn't useful, but suffice it to say, most people are not tech nerds, tech nerds are usually the only group interested in high refresh rates (there are exceptions obviously but that seems to be the trend), and tech nerds weren't gonna buy the $300 iPad model anyway.
I generally agree that some people don't notice it. But that's not the point. It's a feature they could add, and they could turn it off to save battery life. And allow the customer to turn it on. They intentionally leave out a feature that you can find on $200 tablets. And once you use it, most people I know do start to notice. We can disagree. But it's just a minor point
Man the adaptive refresh rate (up to 120hz) on my s21 ultra compared to the battery saving standard 60hz is like night and day and i notice significant differences.

I think that anyone looking at the Fire Tablets should give these serious considerations, especially if you are in Canada. For some reason, Amazon will not sell the Plus or Max models here. The best that I can get is the Fire HD 10. It's on sale for $149.99 right now. This one is on sale for $179.99 at Best Buy (Everything costs more up here). For $35 more, this is a MUCH better tablet. The only advantage is that Amazon will basically give you lifetime updates. I have some Fire Tablets that are ancient and unusable, but they still get updates.
Thanks for the great review, hope this isn't a stupid question, I'm moving from apple to say this model or the Galaxy, can i use apple TV+ on both those options
I want to get a tablet for uni - writing/ editing word docs and watching streaming - would the m11 allow that at the same time? Or Samsung 9+ or Lenovo Duet?
I have lenovo tab M11. A 10w charger comes with the box but tab supports 15w charger. When i connect a Xiaomi 33w charger, tab shows charging rapidly. So it is safe to use a 33w charger on a 15w supported tab? Please reply sir.
Yes, now there are tablets that would be better, something like the Tab S9 FE, or the Tab S9, they would be slight improvements overall, but again, you will pay a lot more for those, so I'd say this is a good compromise for the money.
Thank you so much. In the next few weeks I'm revisiting the Lenovo duet. 5. I can't remember if you got the duet5 or another duet. But anyway. Trying to get as much stuff out there as I can
@@AndroidDigest I believe it's the Duet 5. I'm actually using my P11 Pro Gen 2 more. I like the Pro more - minor bugs with minimizing certain apps and FB doesn't display full screen. I've heard Chromebooks can run Linux. Is this true? Looking forward to more awesome content from your channel as always.
Yes if you go in the settings on your Chromebook there's an option for Linux. You can search Linux in the settings. Then you can decide how much space to give for Linux and Linux apps. At that point you just have to type the proper commands for different apps to download. Maybe watch a video like "best Linux apps on Chromebook" and if you find one maybe Google the commands for how to install that specific app on your Chromebook. It's a little complicated but it works great. I find the duet is extremely versatile but yes. When it comes to using some Android apps, on Chromebooks they do default to that portrait orientation sometimes. But you can always go to Facebook.com and click the settings in the top right. There's some button like "more settings" and "create shortcut". Then you can create a web shortcut and if you do "open in window" it essentially acts like an app. So Chromebooks have web apps that sometimes work better than Android apps and you can use either one. Nowadays you can finally sort your apps by alphabetical order too. Run Linux apps. It's pretty versatile. Really good for productivity. Android tablets are more straight to the point
If you're on a budget, it's a really good option. Something like the Galaxy Tab S9 Fe, that would be a nice upgrade from this. But that's assuming you can come up with the difference. And that's also assuming that it's on sale, because normally you can get the s9 Fe for like $350. You could also get something like the Lenovo tab p11 Gen 2 and if you get that version with the keyboard case, that's a very slight upgrade from this too. If your budget is around $150 though this will be the best you can do for sure
I have the Chinese version of this called the Xiaoxin Pad 2024. Slightly different specs but the body is the same. I quite like the experience so far with the Lenovo. I'm especially happy that it comes with PC Mode considering the low price. It really helps with productivity when I need to do work on-the-go. Though, I do agree and admit that the software is not on par with Samsung, but it's still better than most Chinese tablets :)
@AndroidDigest I have an old Lenovo i5 Windows 7 15.6 laptop It has DVD ripper platinum pro ( free ) on it. I got that from the Major Geeks website many years ago. I will never sell it
This review is talking about the amazing and terrific value this tablet is. So I spend a good portion of my review comparing this tablet to other competition. I want to determine if it's a good value by comparing it to the closest competitor. I think that's a very important part of the review If you want a review that gives information that is worth nothing in one week, there's a lot of channels that give that info. There's a lot of channels that ignore the
I wish Lenovo would utilise the Upcoming Qualcomm ARM processors in both its convertible laptops and Android tablets whilst providing good software updates and support for their tabs. I feel like that would make their tablets really popular
It looks like this does actually come with 4 years of security updates and 2 years of OS updates. 1 of those OS updates is bringing it up to Android 14, so it's not exactly ahead or anything. But still, Lenovo is getting better about their software this year apparently.
Decent tablet, it does not live up to it's specifications though. inserted a 128 g SD card and have yet to be able to move any files over to it from the internal drive. And I have tried 10 different ways to do it. Even from help from the Lenovo community forum.
I'd say that's a completely even draw! The A9+ is faster, the M11 may be slower, but can have extra apps in memory, plus the pen. Honestly I'd maybe even lean towards the M11. Because it comes with the pen and folio, but very very very close!
Once again, Lenovo is delivering pretty good value. Glad to see they've improved their update policy at least a little bit. I'm still content with my Tab M9, but...
Sorry. I missed that announcement. Lenovo has been doing the same thing for a long time. Happy to see this change. I'll remove that part of the video shortly to correct. Thanks for the info. Again their newer moto g phones are all on the 1 year update thing. All their older tablets were too. So yeah. I was a little misinformed there. Appreciate you
I'd lean Lenovo Tab Plus! But haven't tested it yet! I will probably review it next month. So much Galaxy Tab stuff but that's the next tab on my radar
Ordered a lenovo m11 tablet on lazada, it comes in a K10 box instead and has no sim slot. The seller claims that it is China version though Is it original?
You can just look at the model number on the back and in the settings. You'll be the only one that can find out. But most tablets don't come with a sim slot, at least in the US, unless you request it
Could you put a microsd card of 1 tb in this tablet. I have a galaxy tab s and the colors still are really beautiful despite is really old. I use it in my car to watch music videos and you can see videos clearly despite the daylight. That is the reason I want a tablet but I want to watch music videos with daylight. I hope somebody tells me about this issue. Thanks
Looking Topdon OBDii dongle. At the cost this seems to be a better idea than a smart phone ( hard to read) or the whole scanner ( expensive). Plus this does all the other stuff vs a dedicated scanner.
I love the Lenovo UI and the design however their lack of updates really hurts this device and other Lenovo tablets. I am still waiting on the Android 14 update for my Lenovo tab p11 pro gen 2. Although Android updates are not as big as they used to be, the quality of life improvements are really good.
I actually amended my video, about an hour ago. In fact, because Lenovo is apparently releasing two operating system updates to this tablet, I just missed it because they've been releasing one OS update every year for a long time. Technically they are one year behind, so they are releasing Android 14 and then they are planning on one more big update. Outside of that, they are doing 4 years of security updates this year. So there are some improvements there making. And I do need to recognize that. That's why I did leave that in the comments. And I took out that part of the video that mentioned the exact number of updates I would expect
Personally I'd pick the M11. Good news is both tablets can do what you want for the money. I would also recommend using my link, checking best buy, and looking "open box". If you scroll you should see open box somewhere on the page, or use the search function. You can often find the M11 open box for just over $100. In excellent condition. The M11 is more versatile, it allows you to read, you can download Kindle, but you get all the Google play store apps, you can download every streaming app, you are just more limited on the Kindle, and even if you are okay with that, the M11 is really good anyway, so that's why I'd recommend getting it.
My gosh, never ever purchase an Amazon tablet. They use a heavily modified version of Android with Amazon bloatware that pushes Amazon products and services as well as advertising on you. I only endure their bloatware on my FireStick because I purchased it at 50% off , and the FireStick does the job for basic video streaming along with being small and thus portable. Don't ever buy a FireStick at the regular price, it's far too expensive for the hardware.
There are different versions. Some have more storage. The base model has less storage. Not sure if you're seeing a sim slot or sd slot, but yeah, different versions, and different countries may have their own unique flair too.
The pen isn't always sold with the device. Sometimes it sold separately. So not everyone will experience the pen. But I get it maybe important to you. And I can already tell you it will work just fine. It's not a bad experience. Maybe not quite as good as a Samsung Spen but it's not too far off.
It's going to take like an hour and a half to two hours roughly. That's an estimate off the top of my head. It's a tablet so it has a bigger battery. So keep that in mind
Check open box too. I got open box excellent condition recently for like $103 or something like that. It's just a mint condition return. Use the links in the description if you ever pick one up, but yeah, a great deal for a tab for that price.
It's extremely close. Assuming you don't need a Stylus, I'd say the A9+ and the M11 would be a better value. The A9+ has the best processor, and a 90hz display. The M11 is slower but still good, basically the same type of quality. The S6 Lite 2024 is slightly smaller than both of those, and it comes with an s-pen, and it's a similar speed, similar screen quality, but a worse refresh rate. Basically, all 3 would be great. I have an A9+ for one daughter, an m11 for the other, both play games on them just fine, most of the games kids play work, even roblox. If you're really desperate the A9+ does have an 8GB of RAM model with 128GB of storage. The other two tablets don't have that option, but extra ram helps with multitasking, but yeah, if you compare all the 4GB of RAM models, the A9+ and S6 Lite are pretty equal, but ONLY because the S6 Lite comes with a stylus. But if you take the Stylus out, I'd say A9+, then M11, then S6 Lite.
Well you made the same comment like five different times, maybe a glitch, I deleted all the other comments. Honestly I wouldn't have a clue. Could be a software glitch, maybe you just have to restart your tablet, maybe there's a setting that's being missed. That's not something I can tell through a comment
This really isn't a bad price. It would be nice if Lenovo made sure to get at least 1 additional OS upgrade but then again, for the base model price, I'm not sure I would complain very much.🤔
the 128 version is $140 on best buy.... good price though... The p11 pro is $208 on ebay (via lenovo) tot 208.00 with an oled screen... for 140 this is a win though. Thanks for yhe content bro as always. Keep doing your thing.
Thank you so much man. I'm really sorry I never got around to the iPad thing. Again, I'm so tight on funds, I really run this like a business, and there's also so many things I get excited about. About. I know not a lot of people are reviewing Lenovo tablets like this, I just have a lot of other things I want to review and I have all of them stacking up on my desk. Then. I'm excited about the future of Chrome OS tablets, so I'm exploring that. I really do want to do that video you were talking about with the iPad and the A9 plus, but so many things. Thanks for understanding and thanks for sticking with my content
Kinda funny how they put 90hz refresh rate on this tablet, but not the higher level P12 (yeah, I’m still bitter- P12 would have been perfect for me if not for the 60hz refresh rate).
I just got one for like $100 open box at best buy. Lenovo has it on sale for like $120 brand new the last time I checked. I've got links in the description, for that price, I'm even more high on it than I was in the video. Literally just bought one for my daughter.
if you are a comic book reader that's the best tablet for the price the things this tablet is 11" and for the price is very hard to find anything at this size for such low price
I've just purchased the Lenovo M11 for £3.46 in a pre Black Friday deal. Popped it in my basket at around £8, while I researched the specs, and when I revisited my basket the price has dropped twice, down to an incredible £3.46 with free delivery.
This Lenovo is a good option for streaming and with the plus of the pen. Try go get an Honor pad X9 it's a 11,5' inch screen with 120hz screen and cost 169$
My opinion Lenovo tab m11 after good few days of usage - battery: i got 7 and a half hours but with screen brightness to 10 i managed to make it more than 8 hrs and 44 mins. (i can see this as close to 10 hours) -performance: its buttery smooth despite a lack of updates. its decently acceptable -gaming: i do usual game tests and works well for mid and low mid games. im concerned this did well on most high end games without fps drop rates going down like a breeze. for those who ask if roblox does play good it does pretty more above and solid average and i would get a bluetooth controller bc i did a test on arsenal and it works fine its just that the size bezels r a little chunky makes it a little harder to aim. -basic tasks: i am a guy who doesnt like to use social media alot but just casual light games, reading books, do youtube, netflix, and tictok does it well as u will expect. overall lenovo im impressed asf 9/10. the p12 and m12 goes for a little higher at 250 or under but the M11 is my choice since i pulled it over 129$ bang buck deal instead of 190$. i would recommend this WAY better than a samsung a8 or recent new a9
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I agree 100%. I think this is very very close to the A9+ but you can find it for a lot better price. So yeah, a great tab overall
There are wifi versions, and cellular versions. I always tell people, you need to look for "4G, 5G, or Cellular" in the title or description somewhere. Otherwise, no sim card. Tablets are normally wifi only unless you buy from a carrier, or find a cellular model out there.
My friend why do you think that this is a worst tablet in the world you didn't even told in the video about a stylus. Samsung Galaxy A9+ actually hasn't got a thing like this. And there is a very important thing. Lenovo tab m11 has clearly android than samsung.
I never tested the stylus. It's sold separately, and I didn't say it's the worst tablet in the world.. Just that it's slightly worse vs the A9+. Because it has a similar display, but worse performance. Yes it does have a pen option which is a nice thing.
I was super tempted by a new lenovo tablet but my last one which was promised two major updates and security updates for two years only got one major update and one security update in two years. Specifically within one year and nothing since. It's also the only device I've ever owned that crashed and restarted randomly. The auto brightness wouldn't work until you shone a light at it to get it to do something. It was also laggy and would literally drop frames watching 1080 RUclips videos. Finally the biggest and initial disappointment, they heavily pushed it as a hd streaming device with Netflix mentioned yet...they didn't get it certified so it would only play Netflix at 480p. Just the worst money I've spent on a device. Bought a S9Fe Plus and am much happier.
Lenovo sometimes has a slight Edge in hardware, sometimes. But Samsung right now has such good software and software support. Plus the s pen in the box. It's really hard to beat that
That's what makes this a good deal. Most people would compare this to the A9+ from Samsung, but the A9+ retails at $229. This device retails a little lower, AND goes on even bigger sales. I got the 64GB open box at best buy for under $100. Definitely good deals
Hard shill for Samsung never mentioned pen support. Dude talks more about Samsung than the product in the title. Are you sponsored now or in the past by Samsung??
Are you kidding me? I bought this tablet for my kid. I highly recommended this tablet at the end of my video. And I'm a schill? Yeah. Pen support could have been talked about in detail and everything. But it's optional and the pen doesn't come with it. You have to buy separately which drives up the price. That's something I didn't cover because I didn't have the pen. I reviewed it as is. But I gave it high praise. All I did was say it doesn't have great software support and it's slower than that a9+. Other than that I praised it and recommended it to certain people. INCLUDING my own daughter
@@AndroidDigest Yeah you highly recommend the a9+ over and over in this video because it is a bigger brand. Software support means next to nothing on budget devices. The performance gap is not as big as you describe. When we have similar devices the lower price wins. This video is basically "M11 is ok but get a9+ instead" Either one is fine but you insist a9+ is gift from god when we know Samsung cut on features and have heavier software. Oh and Samsung screw over entire regions with Exynos chips, S22 with Exynos is absolute crap
Right, the sales are insane. It's a definite buy at these prices! I bought one for my daughter a few days ago open box at best buy for like $99. That's back when it was $130 new. $120 new is still amazing
Haha, I was born this way! No idea why you are watching a cheaper android tablet review if you hate android, but hey! Enjoy my fingers and all this android!

No pen support for the A9+ while the M11 has and is bundled with the pen, so that's a big selling point for Lenovo.

Would this be efficient for notetaking, using the app GoodNotes?
it doesnt even support goodnotes, only ipads and galaxy tabs with s pen and at least 4gb ram
Yeah, sorry! I didn't get a chance to look at compatibility, but don't think it supports it. At least based on that other comment
Very helpful review, purchased the 8GB RAM/128GB M11 with LTE and I am very happy with mine.
Awesome! I just got the 64GB version with less ram for my daughter, I'm loving it!
@@AndroidDigest looking at this too, on the fence between the 4gb and 8gb version tho...
Yeah hard to speak on it, in the US I'm just seeing the 4GB version.
how is it? anything it cant do?
This or honor pad 9?
I have lenovo tab M11. A 10w charger comes with the box but tab supports 15w charger. When i connect a Xiaomi 33w charger, tab shows charging rapidly. So it is safe to use a 33w charger on a 15w supported tab? Please reply sir.
Yes it's perfectly safe
@@AndroidDigest thank you so much sir
we need updates Lenovo
For real
Is that a deal breaker for you or just a con?
Lenovo are always so slow with their updates 😭
If they are slow with updates can you still use the device for web browsing?

hello thinking of buying this tablet it's sale from tomorrow for $249.00 in Australia thanks for the review just subbed as well
Hey, mind to share the details where it's on sale?
Thanks so much
@@NTTTTTTTTTTTTTjb Hi-Fi
Hi!! I was thinking of buying this with the hopes of drawing stuff on it (commissions), would it be good for that or ?
Yes, now there are tablets that would be better, something like the Tab S9 FE, or the Tab S9, they would be slight improvements overall, but again, you will pay a lot more for those, so I'd say this is a good compromise for the money.
@@AndroidDigest okay thank you sm!!
Good review as always.
Thank you so much. In the next few weeks I'm revisiting the Lenovo duet. 5. I can't remember if you got the duet5 or another duet. But anyway. Trying to get as much stuff out there as I can
@@AndroidDigest I believe it's the Duet 5. I'm actually using my P11 Pro Gen 2 more. I like the Pro more - minor bugs with minimizing certain apps and FB doesn't display full screen.
I've heard Chromebooks can run Linux. Is this true?
Looking forward to more awesome content from your channel as always.
Yes if you go in the settings on your Chromebook there's an option for Linux. You can search Linux in the settings. Then you can decide how much space to give for Linux and Linux apps. At that point you just have to type the proper commands for different apps to download. Maybe watch a video like "best Linux apps on Chromebook" and if you find one maybe Google the commands for how to install that specific app on your Chromebook. It's a little complicated but it works great. I find the duet is extremely versatile but yes. When it comes to using some Android apps, on Chromebooks they do default to that portrait orientation sometimes. But you can always go to Facebook.com and click the settings in the top right. There's some button like "more settings" and "create shortcut". Then you can create a web shortcut and if you do "open in window" it essentially acts like an app.
So Chromebooks have web apps that sometimes work better than Android apps and you can use either one.
Nowadays you can finally sort your apps by alphabetical order too. Run Linux apps. It's pretty versatile. Really good for productivity.
Android tablets are more straight to the point
Found it! Thank you for this review and for redirecting me here
Glad to help
i am considering to buy this for school (note taking with pen mostly). Any thought on that?
If you're on a budget, it's a really good option. Something like the Galaxy Tab S9 Fe, that would be a nice upgrade from this. But that's assuming you can come up with the difference. And that's also assuming that it's on sale, because normally you can get the s9 Fe for like $350. You could also get something like the Lenovo tab p11 Gen 2 and if you get that version with the keyboard case, that's a very slight upgrade from this too. If your budget is around $150 though this will be the best you can do for sure
I have the Chinese version of this called the Xiaoxin Pad 2024. Slightly different specs but the body is the same. I quite like the experience so far with the Lenovo. I'm especially happy that it comes with PC Mode considering the low price. It really helps with productivity when I need to do work on-the-go. Though, I do agree and admit that the software is not on par with Samsung, but it's still better than most Chinese tablets :)
Yeah, you gotta get the best bang for the buck, I don't blame you.
Hello. Can you review it's note-taking and drawing features? Does this tablet support palm rejection?
Yes, it supports palm rejection. I got it yesterday, it s okay for taking notes. Though it nerds more optimization, im happy with it
Yes it does, if you get the right pen. And I hope you enjoy it
great video review
It will accept a tb sd card in the Australian model.
Yes it should accept it no problem
@AndroidDigest Thank you for your reply.
@AndroidDigest I have an old Lenovo i5 Windows 7
15.6 laptop
It has DVD ripper platinum pro ( free ) on it.
I got that from the
Major Geeks website many years ago.
I will never sell it
Is the pen included in this model? Or is a compatible pen available?
All listings I've seen for it come with pen included
had Samsung tan a9+ and they are slower than dirt.😅 is Lenovo m11 the same or slower?
Hello, are there Slovak or Czech subtitles available for the TAB M 11 tablet? Thank you.
You talk more about other brands than you do about the tablet you're meant to be reviewing! Do Samsung have you on retainer?
This review is talking about the amazing and terrific value this tablet is. So I spend a good portion of my review comparing this tablet to other competition. I want to determine if it's a good value by comparing it to the closest competitor. I think that's a very important part of the review
If you want a review that gives information that is worth nothing in one week, there's a lot of channels that give that info. There's a lot of channels that ignore the
Would this be OK for writing on the go?
Yes I think so
64 gigs then you can add using external storage?
For elementary age kids wanting to pay games and watching videos? How do you think it compares
I wish Lenovo would utilise the Upcoming Qualcomm ARM processors in both its convertible laptops and Android tablets whilst providing good software updates and support for their tabs. I feel like that would make their tablets really popular
Yeah if they could fit those into a tablet and get them optimized that would make any tablet popular. Those processors are going to be so fast.
It looks like this does actually come with 4 years of security updates and 2 years of OS updates. 1 of those OS updates is bringing it up to Android 14, so it's not exactly ahead or anything. But still, Lenovo is getting better about their software this year apparently.
Decent tablet, it does not live up to it's specifications though. inserted a 128 g SD card and have yet to be able to move any files over to it from the internal drive. And I have tried 10 different ways to do it. Even from help from the Lenovo community forum.
Are you able to use RUclipsTV on it?
Yes
lenovo m11, redmipad se or samsung a9 plus?
which did u buy?
What’s better the acer A10 tab or this Lenovo m11
Should I go for a9+ standalone 4gbram or m11 8gb ram+128 gb + pen and folio case
I'd say that's a completely even draw! The A9+ is faster, the M11 may be slower, but can have extra apps in memory, plus the pen. Honestly I'd maybe even lean towards the M11. Because it comes with the pen and folio, but very very very close!
The picture alone w o the ever present blue pallette is worth the price plus
Once again, Lenovo is delivering pretty good value. Glad to see they've improved their update policy at least a little bit. I'm still content with my Tab M9, but...
Yeah the M9 is nice due to the smaller size. This is a good value though
I don't believe the a9+ comes with a version with 8gb ram?
There is a version with 8GB. It's the model with upgraded storage in the US
Wrong data to in fact two software updates and four years of security updates
Sorry. I missed that announcement. Lenovo has been doing the same thing for a long time. Happy to see this change. I'll remove that part of the video shortly to correct. Thanks for the info. Again their newer moto g phones are all on the 1 year update thing. All their older tablets were too. So yeah. I was a little misinformed there. Appreciate you
This for 120usd or the lenovo tab plus for 179usd?
I'd lean Lenovo Tab Plus! But haven't tested it yet! I will probably review it next month. So much Galaxy Tab stuff but that's the next tab on my radar
Ordered a lenovo m11 tablet on lazada, it comes in a K10 box instead and has no sim slot. The seller claims that it is China version though
Is it original?
You can just look at the model number on the back and in the settings. You'll be the only one that can find out. But most tablets don't come with a sim slot, at least in the US, unless you request it
Which is better
Samsung s9 fe 6/128 for 305$
Ir lenovo m11 8/128 for 266$
The FE! For sure.
Could you put a microsd card of 1 tb in this tablet. I have a galaxy tab s and the colors still are really beautiful despite is really old. I use it in my car to watch music videos and you can see videos clearly despite the daylight. That is the reason I want a tablet but I want to watch music videos with daylight. I hope somebody tells me about this issue. Thanks
does the usb-c port offer video out?
While I didn't officially test it, this is USBC 2.0 so that's a no
can confirm it does not work as i tried
Looking Topdon OBDii dongle. At the cost this seems to be a better idea than a smart phone ( hard to read) or the whole scanner ( expensive). Plus this does all the other stuff vs a dedicated scanner.
Has anyone played tft mobile (riot games) on this tablet, does it work okay and how is the resolution?
I love the Lenovo UI and the design however their lack of updates really hurts this device and other Lenovo tablets. I am still waiting on the Android 14 update for my Lenovo tab p11 pro gen 2. Although Android updates are not as big as they used to be, the quality of life improvements are really good.
I actually amended my video, about an hour ago. In fact, because Lenovo is apparently releasing two operating system updates to this tablet, I just missed it because they've been releasing one OS update every year for a long time. Technically they are one year behind, so they are releasing Android 14 and then they are planning on one more big update. Outside of that, they are doing 4 years of security updates this year. So there are some improvements there making. And I do need to recognize that. That's why I did leave that in the comments. And I took out that part of the video that mentioned the exact number of updates I would expect
Will it screenmirror to a Samsung Smart tv ?
No
Lenovo M11 vs Amazon Fire max 11? Both around $140, I just want a tablet for reading and maybe watching iptv
Personally I'd pick the M11. Good news is both tablets can do what you want for the money. I would also recommend using my link, checking best buy, and looking "open box". If you scroll you should see open box somewhere on the page, or use the search function. You can often find the M11 open box for just over $100. In excellent condition.
The M11 is more versatile, it allows you to read, you can download Kindle, but you get all the Google play store apps, you can download every streaming app, you are just more limited on the Kindle, and even if you are okay with that, the M11 is really good anyway, so that's why I'd recommend getting it.
My gosh, never ever purchase an Amazon tablet. They use a heavily modified version of Android with Amazon bloatware that pushes Amazon products and services as well as advertising on you. I only endure their bloatware on my FireStick because I purchased it at 50% off , and the FireStick does the job for basic video streaming along with being small and thus portable. Don't ever buy a FireStick at the regular price, it's far too expensive for the hardware.
Mine is 128gb and has a sim slot? Do I have an upgraded version or something?
earphone jack?
There are different versions. Some have more storage. The base model has less storage. Not sure if you're seeing a sim slot or sd slot, but yeah, different versions, and different countries may have their own unique flair too.
What about the pen and note taking…..i think thats the most important part
The pen isn't always sold with the device. Sometimes it sold separately. So not everyone will experience the pen. But I get it maybe important to you. And I can already tell you it will work just fine. It's not a bad experience. Maybe not quite as good as a Samsung Spen but it's not too far off.
@@AndroidDigest lol thanks 😅i bought it yesterday, due to arrive today. Hopefully its ok for notes thats all i need it for. Love from London!
@@Aubrey2004-j4k hello. How's your experience with the pen feature so far? Is it great and accurate? Does it support palm rejection for note-taking?
@@honlias1160 its actually quite decent for the price. Using it to take notes and physics calculations at uni level and its decent
Glad to hear it!
How much time it delayes to charge completely ??? Someone who tell me please
It's going to take like an hour and a half to two hours roughly. That's an estimate off the top of my head. It's a tablet so it has a bigger battery. So keep that in mind
Dude got the finger from scary movie 😂
For sure 😂
Daddy would you like some sausage daddy would you like some sausages
Best Buy has these on sale for 129/139$ usd depending on storage size I might have to grab one!
Check open box too. I got open box excellent condition recently for like $103 or something like that. It's just a mint condition return. Use the links in the description if you ever pick one up, but yeah, a great deal for a tab for that price.
What would be better for a child to have and to use for games, movies and RUclips, this, sorry Samsung S6 lite or A9+
It's extremely close. Assuming you don't need a Stylus, I'd say the A9+ and the M11 would be a better value. The A9+ has the best processor, and a 90hz display. The M11 is slower but still good, basically the same type of quality. The S6 Lite 2024 is slightly smaller than both of those, and it comes with an s-pen, and it's a similar speed, similar screen quality, but a worse refresh rate.
Basically, all 3 would be great. I have an A9+ for one daughter, an m11 for the other, both play games on them just fine, most of the games kids play work, even roblox. If you're really desperate the A9+ does have an 8GB of RAM model with 128GB of storage. The other two tablets don't have that option, but extra ram helps with multitasking, but yeah, if you compare all the 4GB of RAM models, the A9+ and S6 Lite are pretty equal, but ONLY because the S6 Lite comes with a stylus. But if you take the Stylus out, I'd say A9+, then M11, then S6 Lite.
@@AndroidDigest ok thank you, I'm guessing the iPad 10th generation beats them all? Have you reviewed that as I can't find it
Does anyone use the rear camera on a tablet? Get rid of it and save money
Can it support sim card
Yes the one I got can really good
Some can. You have to specifically look for ones that advertise that though. Typically with 5G or LTE in the title
Bro i have made screen recorder but it was not visible video it only hear audio what i have to do please reply me
Well you made the same comment like five different times, maybe a glitch, I deleted all the other comments.
Honestly I wouldn't have a clue. Could be a software glitch, maybe you just have to restart your tablet, maybe there's a setting that's being missed. That's not something I can tell through a comment
I would buy this if it had usb-c DP Alt Mode! I love to travel with one small device.
I wish it did too. But it doesn't! It's just usb c 2.0
This really isn't a bad price. It would be nice if Lenovo made sure to get at least 1 additional OS upgrade but then again, for the base model price, I'm not sure I would complain very much.🤔
For $130 I think it's a steal
You'll get up to Android 15 which is two operating system and security updates till January of 2028
Well buying this to make notes........low budget😢.....and after seeing this video am broke🙂
This isn't a bad tablet for that, hope you enjoy it! I don't enjoy being broke though
I was lookin this tablet with 128 gb memory with pencil for edication. Is it good for this? Thanks.
It CAN come with a stylus. But not every 128GB version does. Lenovo has one on their website that does and yes it should be good for that
Just got it for $125 at best buy, awesome value.
Amazing value
the 128 version is $140 on best buy.... good price though... The p11 pro is $208 on ebay (via lenovo) tot 208.00 with an oled screen... for 140 this is a win though. Thanks for yhe content bro as always. Keep doing your thing.
Thank you so much man. I'm really sorry I never got around to the iPad thing. Again, I'm so tight on funds, I really run this like a business, and there's also so many things I get excited about. About. I know not a lot of people are reviewing Lenovo tablets like this, I just have a lot of other things I want to review and I have all of them stacking up on my desk. Then. I'm excited about the future of Chrome OS tablets, so I'm exploring that. I really do want to do that video you were talking about with the iPad and the A9 plus, but so many things. Thanks for understanding and thanks for sticking with my content
Kinda funny how they put 90hz refresh rate on this tablet, but not the higher level P12 (yeah, I’m still bitter- P12 would have been perfect for me if not for the 60hz refresh rate).
Thinking about getting a tablet to take on vecation to watch some movies on, this one looks nice.
I just got one for like $100 open box at best buy. Lenovo has it on sale for like $120 brand new the last time I checked. I've got links in the description, for that price, I'm even more high on it than I was in the video. Literally just bought one for my daughter.
if you are a comic book reader that's the best tablet for the price
the things this tablet is 11" and for the price is very hard to find anything at this size for such low price
For sure. I got one for like $100 open box at Best buy. A great deal
Not a word about the stylus?
Sorry just didn't cover everything, they don't always come with it
I think this is worth the price this cheap it’s a steal 👌
Seriously, it is, I got one for my kids around $120 or less, it's great.
The M11 will get up to android 15 and support up till early 2028, I think it will be the same with the A9(plus) 😉
Yeah I left a comment about that with a clarification. Still only one big os update
I've just purchased the Lenovo M11 for £3.46 in a pre Black Friday deal. Popped it in my basket at around £8, while I researched the specs, and when I revisited my basket the price has dropped twice, down to an incredible £3.46 with free delivery.
This Lenovo is a good option for streaming and with the plus of the pen.
Try go get an Honor pad X9 it's a 11,5' inch screen with 120hz screen and cost 169$
Good thoughts!
My opinion
Lenovo tab m11 after good few days of usage
- battery: i got 7 and a half hours but with screen brightness to 10 i managed to make it more than 8 hrs and 44 mins. (i can see this as close to 10 hours)
-performance: its buttery smooth despite a lack of updates. its decently acceptable
-gaming: i do usual game tests and works well for mid and low mid games. im concerned this did well on most high end games without fps drop rates going down like a breeze. for those who ask if roblox does play good it does pretty more above and solid average and i would get a bluetooth controller bc i did a test on arsenal and it works fine its just that the size bezels r a little chunky makes it a little harder to aim.
-basic tasks: i am a guy who doesnt like to use social media alot but just casual light games, reading books, do youtube, netflix, and tictok does it well as u will expect.
overall lenovo im impressed asf 9/10. the p12 and m12 goes for a little higher at 250 or under but the M11 is my choice since i pulled it over 129$ bang buck deal instead of 190$. i would recommend this WAY better than a samsung a8 or recent new a9
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I agree 100%. I think this is very very close to the A9+ but you can find it for a lot better price. So yeah, a great tab overall
@@AndroidDigest always happy to help a hand
Does it take Sim card with the Samsung?
There are wifi versions, and cellular versions. I always tell people, you need to look for "4G, 5G, or Cellular" in the title or description somewhere. Otherwise, no sim card. Tablets are normally wifi only unless you buy from a carrier, or find a cellular model out there.
4 years of security updates on a budget sale Lenovo tablet is reasonable.
My friend why do you think that this is a worst tablet in the world you didn't even told in the video about a stylus. Samsung Galaxy A9+ actually hasn't got a thing like this. And there is a very important thing. Lenovo tab m11 has clearly android than samsung.
I never tested the stylus. It's sold separately, and I didn't say it's the worst tablet in the world.. Just that it's slightly worse vs the A9+. Because it has a similar display, but worse performance. Yes it does have a pen option which is a nice thing.
I was super tempted by a new lenovo tablet but my last one which was promised two major updates and security updates for two years only got one major update and one security update in two years. Specifically within one year and nothing since. It's also the only device I've ever owned that crashed and restarted randomly. The auto brightness wouldn't work until you shone a light at it to get it to do something. It was also laggy and would literally drop frames watching 1080 RUclips videos.
Finally the biggest and initial disappointment, they heavily pushed it as a hd streaming device with Netflix mentioned yet...they didn't get it certified so it would only play Netflix at 480p.
Just the worst money I've spent on a device.
Bought a S9Fe Plus and am much happier.
Lenovo sometimes has a slight Edge in hardware, sometimes. But Samsung right now has such good software and software support. Plus the s pen in the box. It's really hard to beat that
hows this tablet for kids and running roblox?
Great! This would be great for kids. And I think it would be great for roblox too
It’s currently under $150 for a 128 gb
That's what makes this a good deal. Most people would compare this to the A9+ from Samsung, but the A9+ retails at $229. This device retails a little lower, AND goes on even bigger sales. I got the 64GB open box at best buy for under $100. Definitely good deals
This looks lke it will be upto running my golf simulator, rapsodo mlm2pro, and going on Twitter/X
and if you really need a pen with your tablet nothing can beat it.
If you get the version that comes with the pen, yes, it's great!
Hard shill for Samsung never mentioned pen support. Dude talks more about Samsung than the product in the title. Are you sponsored now or in the past by Samsung??
Are you kidding me? I bought this tablet for my kid. I highly recommended this tablet at the end of my video. And I'm a schill? Yeah. Pen support could have been talked about in detail and everything. But it's optional and the pen doesn't come with it. You have to buy separately which drives up the price. That's something I didn't cover because I didn't have the pen. I reviewed it as is. But I gave it high praise. All I did was say it doesn't have great software support and it's slower than that a9+. Other than that I praised it and recommended it to certain people. INCLUDING my own daughter
@@AndroidDigest Yeah you highly recommend the a9+ over and over in this video because it is a bigger brand. Software support means next to nothing on budget devices. The performance gap is not as big as you describe. When we have similar devices the lower price wins. This video is basically "M11 is ok but get a9+ instead" Either one is fine but you insist a9+ is gift from god when we know Samsung cut on features and have heavier software.
Oh and Samsung screw over entire regions with Exynos chips, S22 with Exynos is absolute crap
its $120 rn
Right, the sales are insane. It's a definite buy at these prices! I bought one for my daughter a few days ago open box at best buy for like $99. That's back when it was $130 new. $120 new is still amazing
