    Is this XiaoXin model really identical to the Lenovo P11-Pro for the European/USA markets? Or does it have a mix of Chinese / English software, a crippled Playstore and/or a Chinese power adapter plug, which is typical for Chinese products that are made for their internal market?

    • @andrzej2574
      @andrzej2574 3 года назад +1

      Charger is with a Chinese plug. Software is a standard global ROM, it's identical to ones on Lenovo tablets in Europe or US. Lenovo calls this ROM version ROW (Rest Of the World). Google services are preinstalled and work flawlessly. Netflix is also preinstalled.
      Hardware name of the XiaoXin model is different to the standard Lenovo P11 Pro model. More experienced users suspect this to be related to different hardware responsible for communication (different antennas, modems, and potentially different bands supported), as all other specs are identical. Different model name however means the XiaoXin had to undergo a separate route of certification and this leads me to the only problem I found with this tablet. It manifests itself when you try to update Netflix via Play Store and you receive a popup telling you that the tablet is no longer supported by Netflix. When you open up information section in Google Play Store, it shows the tablet doesn't have Google Play Protect certificate installed. The certificate can only be obtained from Google by the manufacturer, so this can't be 'fixed' by the user by any means. Nonetheless applications, including Google ones receive updates via the Play Store and can be installed without any problems. Netflix is the sole application I use which demands Google Play Protect certificate. This means the version preinstalled can't be updated and being outdated refuses to connect to the Netflix service. Currently the only way to get Netflix to run is by downlading its APK file from a web site such as APK Pure and manually installing it. It works perfectly fine after that (until a new version is released and you have to repeat the manual update).

      550 euroes here in the Netherlands, so much cheaper than in Spain for some reason. Depending on how much import tax is, probably worth buying "locally". Shipping is faster, global rom installed from factory, can be returned without nearly as much hassle, etc.

    • @WirxawTanev
      @WirxawTanev 3 года назад +12

      It's called export and import. The exporter party wants to profit off its developments(if you think China is bad, then you probably shouldn't check out USA's portfolio), while the importing party needs to: A)validate every product(offer own warranty) B) store every product C) adapt every product(localized ROM etc). These things aren't free and nor are they done to rip you off.
      In fact, many "working class" citizens would rather pay more, but get the product manually and with warranty, without listing their credit card on some chinese website and dealing with deliveries and all the risks that the whole process entails.
      Now if your own country was developing and assembling the hardware and you'd have to pay the international price - THAT would a rip-off.

      Agree! The Tab S7/S7+ have such amazing displays, top tier quality LCD and OLED displays that look absolutely gorgeous! Best of the best out there when it comes to tablets.
      For such an expensive tablet, the Lenovo should be a much better tablet overall :/
      It has the Snapdragon 730G. Tab S7 has the SD 865+. The new upcoming Tab S8 will probably get an even better chipset.
      The hardware and software on the Tab S7 is top quality, best of the best. It also has better multitasking and desktop mode (aka DeX). Also, 4GB RAM n Android tablets is ok, but 6GB is the lowest I would go. Tab S7 has 6/8GB RAM along with 128/256GB storage.
      Also, once you use 120hz, you will love it and will not want to pay $300+ for any phone or tablet that doesn't have at least 90hz. It makes the tablet so smooth and your experience so much better. The pencil is also better and with the 120hz is 👌🏼
      In november the Tab S7 was at $300 on some insane Microsoft deals. When the S21 launched, they were giving the Tab S7 for $300 on bundles. But it's usually at $550.
      So if this Lenovo tab is more than $300, better spend a little more and get a real great tablet and better experience with the Tab S7. You just can't go wrong with Samsung. I switched from Apple in 2015 and it's been the best thing ever! :D

    I have a Lenovo M10 FHD+ and a M8 HD. Be aware that update policy by Lenovo is a disaster. The upgrade to Android 10 created lots of problems like : no apps notifications, no automatic updates of the widgets, etc. Since 4 months they have been unable to fix those problems. I recommend to go on Lenovo forum to check that before bying. Lenovo hardware is very appealing for the price but the software monitoring is a disaster and that makes their tablets useless quickly...

    Hi Chris, great review again! I love this tablet and very well may get it. Of course, there may also be import duties shipping to UK/Europe I guess, but still much cheaper. This is the Lenovo P11 Pro but there is also the Lenovo P11 (non-Pro). This would also be really great to get a review of, though I couldn't find it, or XiaoXin version of it on Banggood. Not sure if you can find it on an import website though?
    Now it's IPS instead of OLED so less vibrant and also uses a funny resolution of 2000x1200 which is a really odd 5:3 ratio and what's more, on the width, doesn't fit any common video resolution e.g. 1080p, 1440p etc so there will always be scaling (unlike this P11 Pro having 1:1 scaling at 1440p with black bars).
    BUT, it is of course cheaper. In UK, Lenovo website has it at £230 vs £450 for P11 Pro which is a big difference, so there might also be a big difference on importing websites too. It's also snapdragon 662 instead of 730g. However, it also officially supports widevine lvl 1 and also has quad speakers so it could be the king of budget HD Netflix/Amazon tablets!
    I'm happy with IPS vs OLED (and the cheaper price!) but I do have a reservation about whether the non 1:1 video scaling will look decent or not.
    Let me know if you are looking at getting it in for review or not!

    I've been trialing my old tablets (HD 8 2018, Miix 2 8, Dell 7275) and ultimately decided on trading in my HD 8 for a new HD 10, $55 out of pocket. My primary use case is video playback at accelerated speeds, and a combination of streaming apps and Jellyfin as my media server allows the HD 10 to fulfill its use case.
    However, in my experimentation and tinkering, I always came to the same conclusion. How come iPads have Sidecar but Android tablets don't have a good equivalent? AFAIK wired Sidecar has GPU support, so it's essentially an iPad and fully functioning portable monitor for Mac. Splashtop or Spacedesk are ok, but are software rendered or rely on HW decode/encode. I understand that Apple tightly integrates software and hardware. However, it's not like Android tablet manufacturers don't have a similar level of control. On Windows, Project to this PC is cool, but still CPU-heavy and not really viable for mobile work.
    I just use my tablet for background or continued watching, but that's because that's little else I can do without DeX or some OEM desktop mode. I'm surprised Samsung and Windows haven't come up with a good solution to make the S7 a portable monitor for Windows machines with TB3 or something that more or less guarantees a recent-generation iGPU. Insanely high-spec Android tablet for media consumption with all the functionality a second screen can bring.
    I'm really interested in this P11 Pro, as I am in the Chromebook Duet. However, it's really hard to justify paying so much for devices with such niche optimal use cases. It's not like I couldn't use an Android tablet as my primary device, and a PC + phone already fulfills those functions well enough that a tablet is strictly a luxury product for power users or budget purchase for basic buyers. These premium tablets really need to start adding the real feature we want: DisplayPort Alt-mode in, with HID support. I would have bought an S7 yesterday if I could just plug it into my PC for high quality secondary touch display. Spending $200 on a quality portable monitor doesn't feel as good as buying a standalone tablet, but ultimately would benefit most consumers in the long-run. I wish product managers and engineers would recognize and tackle this void.

    TechTablets , what is the tooth or texture of the touchscreen like? Does it have enough feel so a finger knows it is sliding? I'm on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 without any tooth, and the screen keeps confusing taps with swipes.
    Due to the problem above I've also found Benchmarks to be of little use. The most "lag" is caused by the tablet's inability to recognise the meaning of a touch. This could be helped if tablets could allow for the removal of swipes or combination of swipe from the "lexicon".
    Also, while on the screen, it is a OLED. They don't use a lot of power. How fair is your battery test?
    If you want to heat up that tablet, try this game World Of Steel: Tank Torce from BraveTale, after about 3 months on hard play it will probably heat up as much as this Samsung Tab S6.
