I love this tablet! It is sleek and the visuals are beautiful. I often use the pen and write notes for my coaching business right on the tablet. Very handy and lightweight!

Giving it a 3, as the tablet runs well but some apps do not work properly on it no matter what.
Wasn’t a big deal for us but pen didn’t work at all right out of the box.
Honestly it works great when it works but if you find having to use “pc mode “ to even get programs or apps you use to work return it as soon as you can

Great picture, amazing sound. The quad JBL speakers sound is absolutely great. Plenty of space onboard, and add a micro SD to it as well, you can have a nice collection of movies, music, etc to carry with you, and still have plenty of free space without worrying about your tablet slowing down. Games great, and I rarely get lagging when I'm playing. Cheaper than the hardware equivalent of certain Samsung tablets, my P12 tab runs cooler and smoother than all the Samsung tablets I have owned. This is my opinion of coarse! By far my favorite sound from any tablet I have used. Picture, sound, space, speed....do yourself a favor and pick one up!

Lenovo tablet for Matterport use
|

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
We purchased this tablet for our company to run the Matterport app for our site surveys. We were previously using an older iPad which could run the program but the Lenovo tablet was a step up, if for no other reason, because of the increase in computing power. The screen size and the stylus have also been incredibly useful in getting some of the finer details sorted out in the field. And, for the price point, it was a no-brainer. We actually went back and bought a second one when we purchased our second Matterport camera.
The battery life is also been incredibly useful since we sometimes have to scan 40 to 50,000 square foot buildings. A project that size would require running that heavy program for about 4 to 6 hours. I can't really attest to the durability of the tablet since we placed it in a hard case the moment we got it.

If you need a large screen to multitask, this tablet is perfect. Messages and browsing on the same screen in my lap is great. It's heavier than others obviously so you don't want to be holding it up for long but with a folio case that acts as a stand, thats not a problem for me. This isn't iPad fast but everything opens quickly. The pen is also great and works well for note taking and general use. The fingerprint scanner is a bonus and I didnt realize how much I would use that but its one of those features that I dont ever want to be without on a tablet now. If youre looking for a solid large display tablet with lots of features, this is a great one to get.

This is a great tablet. My wife uses it for artistry and CAD for 3d printing and it works well. Occasionally it needs to be rebooted because the more high resource apps bog it down, but this is common even on phones. There's nothing in the way of bloatware on here, it's a clean android install with the pen firmware integrated into the machine. It has an app but I secretly disabled it to see what happens and the pen was still able to connect so I'm pretty sure they got it tied together well. Only complaint is the pen needs to be resynced sometimes if it's set down and put to sleep. About 1/6 it will disconnect and have to be reconnected. The process is easy as pie to do but more stability would be nice. I know there are about 15 different ways that it could just be my house (we have mesh routing, lots of WiFi devices, smart house crap, etc) so I'm not harping on Lenovo.
The display is fantastic and the pen almost always connects and performs very well. A top is to just focus on not putting too much angle on the pen tip, you don't have to keep it vertical (this is how I was using it and it became a chore) but the sensor is connected to the whole pen tip and that's bigger than a pen/pencil tip would be.
Product is obviously well designed. Lenovo has always had a cleanness to their form factor and this is no different. It's smooth, it has magnetics to keep the pen in place, it's very easy to hold, and the display takes up everything but a pittance of bevel, so you're getting the WHOLE screen. We have a galaxy tab and it has about an inch border so the thing feels tiny. This..does not. You feel like you're holding an entire screen from a laptop, and it just feels nicely made.
Graphics are on point, like I said my wife uses this for a lot of drawing and 3d manipulation, and she also uses it as a lightbox to trace stencil so we had to get a fairly large screen with a bright display. BAM this thing exceeded my expectations significantly.
Battery life for how we use it is top notch too. Can get a full day easily of heavy 3D work, full brightness, and multiple apps open and being used. Thing just keeps going. I haven't pedantically measured it's uptime but without serious use (so just browsing for pictures on chrome, or maybe light drawing in a small app) it lasted 3-4 days. GREAT. But who isn't going to just charge the sucker at night, you got a charging cable o.~
If you got this far thanks for reading. It's a great little device, I like it a lot, my wife likes it a lot, and it seems to fit what we needed without it being stinky apple or slow insecure windows.

As a tablet... It is great. Does everything I need it to. Pretty good display and decent battery life. Excellent for reading and also for visibility when speaking. The overall performance I good... Smooth scrolling, decent video playback. (I can't speak much for audio because I use my Bluetooth earbuds almost all the time).
As a note taker... The included nebo app is pretty good. Better than many other apps.
The screen is so smooth that writing with the included stylus is quite difficult. I'm hoping adding a screen protector will add just enough resistance to the stylist tip and make it easier to take notes. This is not a problem if you are on a flat table but if you want to take notes while sitting in a chair holding the tablet at an angle this can be a little dicey. I should add some people may like the smoother screen as it may emulate smooth paper with an ultra fine pen.
The magnetized attachment locations for the stylus (back or side) are pretty convenient. I can speak for the camera performance because I have not used it and don't intend to.

I've been looking for a reasonably priced tablet for the last 9 months. Purchased the Amazon Fire Tablet, took it back as the Fire Tablet 11 was announced. Saw the specs, and didn't think it was worth 250. This unit went on sale for similar price open box as Amazon Fire 11 Tablet. I got it for 265 after tax and gift card.
Pros: Large and beautiful screen. While it's no OLED, but it's certain better than TFT LCD screens found Samsung Galaxy 8 11 inch tablet. Next is capacity, 256 GBs standard plus expansion to 1 TB. Next is battery life, night viewing I watched 4 hours worth of content and had 63% battery life left at 60% brightness. They claim 10 plus hours, that might be true. Last pro, wireless display and with audio was better than expected. Yes so lag, but not as much as I've experienced the past with older tablets.
Cons: Accessories are limited, found a case for it, but I don't the case. New case comes out in January with Keyboard attachment. Graphical performance, compared to Amazon tablet, this is faster. However, I tried a few games that run great on my Samsung S20 Ultra phone on this device, and it was twice as slow. My phone is over 3 years old, so I'm not thrilled about the GPU performance. Last issue, memory, while 8 gigs is nice, if you try to be a power user with this device, you will run into performance hiccups. Did the dual screen with multiple apps open from Google, Youtube, Hulu, and Outlook.

Nice tablet for a musician on a budget

I purchased this tablet because of the relatively affordable price and the large screen for displaying sheet music. I added a Bluetooth pedal for hands free paging and Mobile Sheets software for managing the music library and displaying the sheets.
I've used it in performances outdoors in open shade and found the contrast acceptable. It would be difficult to use in direct sunlight (paper wins).
It's a pleasure to use indoors especially when a stand light would have been required with paper music.
I turned off smooth scrolling between pages, because it was too jerky to read while scrolling. It may be due to a slower refresh rate or just the screen technology.
The screen is tall and narrow which has been a benefit since I can see the top line or two of the next page before I jump to the next page. This makes page turning easier to follow.
The pen works well, but I wish was had a different mounting location. The pen is magnetic and only attaches where shown. I frequently brush off the pen when putting the tablet (now in a case with a pen cutout) into my instrument case. For marking up music the pen is a must. It's nice that the pen charges wirelessly when attached to the tablet.
The battery life is okay, not great. I'd guess the tablet can display music for about 4 to 5 hours on a full charge. That's long enough for most rehearsals and performances, but I need to make sure it is topped off before longer rehearsals or performances. I could easily connect an external battery to extend the life.
The screen is shiny, but I have not had trouble reading it.
The CPU performance is great for how I use it. It loads a setlist in a blink and boots quickly.
The fingerprint sensor is on the power button and I've had mixed success using it.
I also tried face unlock with mixed success. I think its because I use the table in portrait orientation and the camera is more in the landscape orientation.
Overall, I like the tablet and it works for what I needed. I'm pleased it has not frozen or crashed in weeks of usage.
I gave it 4 of 5 stars because of the pen mounting location, somewhat disappointing battery like, and somewhat unreliable biometric/face unlock.

I've had a Tab A for many years. It was time to get something better. The Lenovo P12 was at a price point that I could afford. I love having a bigger screen since I watch TV and do a lot of reading on my tablet. The sound system is superior to my old tablet. With 256GB of storage all my stuff fit on the tablet without having to use a memory card. I've always used a stylus so having the included Precision Pen is a nice touch. The one area where I am disappointed is the battery life, it's about the same as my 5 year old tablet. Shame on Lenovo for cheaping out on the battery on an otherwise excellent product.
I hope a case becomes available soon because it's hard to prop up the tablet to be able to use it, you've got to wonder why they don't just include one since everybody wants their tablet to sit at an angle.
