Another hit by Lenovo
This is my 2nd Android tablet by Lenovo and I am loving them more and more. The other one I own and use daily is the Yoga Tab Plus and this one I have been using for mainly streaming/content consumption and light gaming (Tower Defense). The price to performance ration is great when comparing to the other competitors and the build quality is excellent. In the box ------------------------- Super lightweight and thing 12.1 Tablet Pin extractor tool USB C charging cable (you need to supply your own power brick Standard paperwork. Setup ------------------------- Being an Android tablet, setup was super quick and easy. I just logged into my Google Account and everything was being set up in the background quickly. The only thing that took a while was all the updates required. Apps took the longest to update, then there was not 1 but 2 Lenovo OS updates back to back. But once everything was done, it was just me signing into my apps I used the most and on to my daily tasks. Performance ------------------------- The Idea Tab Plus is a 2.5k resolution screen that can do a max of 90hz refresh. This was more than satisfactory for my as watching most streams were 1440 @ 60 or FHD (1080) @ 60 and looked great. Putting in a couple hours in gaming never got the tablet warm and even after 4+ hours of binge watching shows yielded the same results. Battery life claims 13+ hours on a full charge and I can safely say those claims are true as I watched my YouTube channels in the span of a few days. Brightness was around 50-60%. Sound is adequate from the built in speakers and will do the job just fine, but I prefer using my over the ear headphones. Another great thing Lenovo does is expansion! Granted you get 128gb of storage on the tablet, but you get a Micro SD slot that can do up to an extra 2TB of storage! I am so happy some companies still allow this while the others did away with it. So huge thumbs up to Lenovo. Final thoughts ------------------------- If you are looking for a tablet for mainly content consumption and light gaming with a little bit of productivity sprinkled in, then I would look no further. Lenovo created an excellent tablet that (sold separately) can use a KB/Cover attachment to do a multitude of tasks. Personally I recommend putting the Tablet in a protective case asap as a safety precaution. The clear one I got was perfect for my needs.

Great Price Point, Perfect for Kids
The Lenovo Idea Tab Plus is a midrange tablet that bodes well above its price point, especially after some healthy updates. Unboxing and setting up the device was simple. Any android user should feel right at home. Despite the thin profile, there's a premium finish to give it a less "cheapy" feel that you would expect from say a budget device. This being in the lower midrange though, means you'll see the bezels which are noticeably larger than what I’m used to. However the size more than makes up for it with its 12.1 inch screen. Once powered on, the display felt natural, bright and vibrant. Functionally, the screen is smooth and flawlessly responsive. Audio performance is surprisingly crisp with the built in Dolby Atmos-enabled speakers. I found myself enjoying the tablet without the need for headphones. Admittedly one of the areas that shows the price range is the storage, with only 128gb. However, Lenovo gets a pass because of the included expansion for microSD cards, which alleviates my concern. One of the more impressive features though, is the compatibility with Google’s Kid Space, this is a win in my book. It transforms the entire interface into a kid-friendly environment, complete with robust parental controls via the Family Link app. The Idea Tab Plus actually exceeded expectations, performance wise. My son played Minecraft for hours without a single freeze or crash, something his previous tablet struggled with. Whether it was YouTube, games, or multi tasking, nothing seemed to hinder its functionality. The 90Hz refresh rate made a noticeable difference, mostly while switching between apps or navigating different windows. Also, the battery lasted all day, so I did not have to worry about recharging constantly. One thing Lenovo could do better, is offer more accessories. I was disappointed to find only a few case options, only folio styles, and not many choices from other brands either. As a parent, I want strong, kid-friendly cases to keep the tablet safe. Final Thoughts: The Lenovo Idea Tab Plus is an excellent choice for families seeking a reliable and affordable tablet with premium features. Its performance, kid-friendly interface option, and vibrant display make it a lovely purchase.
