Large screen size, fast and responsive, included pen, 256gb of storage = best value. I do wish it was a little more square like an iPad but ive gotten used to it. I feel like I got a better value than a large format iPad. The configuration options for Android 14 are in many ways superior to IOS. I also like that it includes both fingerprint and face recognition. Highly recommend

I bought this tablet because I wanted to replace my older Apple iPad. I was getting tired of not being able to use apps that I've bought because of the IOS updates that my iPad no longer supports.
Anyway, when I bought this tablet, the first thing it did was it updated itself to Android 14 right off the bat. Then, I installed Android versions (and equivalents) of the apps that I've used on my old iPad. This also has more system ram that most of my apps that I use so far opens and runs much quicker compared to my iPad.
Speaking of RAM, this tablet has more storage RAM compared to my iPad. I can also add a micro-sd card for even more space. I easily transferred most of my videos and documents to this.
The screen looks as good and bright as my old iPad. The pen it came with is more responsive than I first thought. It can keep up with the speed of my handwriting (give or take a few milliseconds). The camera is much more than enough for casual video and picture taking (cameras on phones are much better).
Now for the negative:
Having this tablet for a few months, I think I can say what I don't like about it:
It's BIG!
I don't hate it. It's just depending on the circumstances that I'm using the tablet for. For viewing videos and reading, it's great! But if I just want to casually show pictures or read my emails, the size can be a bit cumbersome. My iPad was just the right size, but it was heavier and thicker than this one.
The screen is not that resilient to scratches.
I somehow manage to get a light scratch around a corner of the screen. It's light that most people will probably not notice, but I do. I bought a tempered glass screen protector to keep it from further scratching.
No headphone jack.
Actually, I was kind of surprised that it didn't have one. This tablet is able to play loud with its built-in speakers, but I'm going to have to get a Bluetooth set of earphones if I want to listen to it privately.
Overall, I still like this tablet.

Good tablet - but a bit pricey. It runs Android fast, connects to Wi-Fi and bluetooth well. Screen is great - and has high resolution, which creates an extremely sharp image. Sound is also good from tiny speakers. Battery life is excellent.

If you are looking for a large-screen tablet that is a little more on the affordable side, this is the tablet for you. The build is solid, the display is crisp and bright, and the hardware is quicker than I expected. Audio quality is also good. My only complaint would be that the pen does not charge when magnetically attached to the tablet but has a USB-C port that you charge it with. Due to its size it is naturally a little on the heavier side, so I would definitely recommend the folio case from Lenovo.

Great tablet but not for use with AR glasses. Not the greatest battery life, but tablet function and lcd screen are spot on. Speed of the tablet is blazing fast. Just wished it worked with AR glasses. But for the price, I just couldn't pass it up. Love watching movies on this tablet, great sound and screen. I recommend if you are not using AR glasses. If you are, look at a different tablet

I did lot of research before buying this tablet. It is a great tablet compared to Samsung. The screen is bright and responsive. The tablet is not slow. Gaming is great.
My use is mostly for entertainment like watching Youtube, Hulu, and other streaming services. I do gaming. Mostly to Xbox gamepass, there are not problems with that.
Battery life is awesome. For reference: recently I watch two Sunday Football games back to back on the tablet without turning off. I did not have to turn off the tablet.
The pencil is responsive. I do some note taking sometimes since I like journaling. However, I found myself using the pen when I am drawing in sketchpad apps.
The tablet can be use as a PC. However, I do not use that function since it is my entertainment tablet.
I just wish BestBuy sell accessories for the tablet.

Awesome tablet. Just don't buy here. By it direct from Lenovo for $100 less. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/tablets/android-tablets/lenovo-tab-series/lenovo-tab-p12/zach0165us
You can also still pick it up at best buy directly in 1 hr. I pointed this out to Best Buy, and they said that Lenovo is not approved for price match, which makes no sense. LOL. Buy from the link.

One year in and still love it. It beats lugging my laptop to all my meetings. With the Lenovo keyboard case and a wireless mouse it's basically a Chromebook. I also added a textured screen protector since I use the pen for note taking during meetings and that make writing feel more natural. Handwriting to text is also very accurate. Perfect for watching shows when I'm traveling - sound and picture are excellent. If I'm somewhere noisy I use earbuds or a Bluetooth speaker to add bass and volume, but in a normal room the sound is fine. Unexpected bonus is that when I do have my Lenovo laptop also, it becomes an extended second display!

Great tablet. Plenty fast. Haven't tried the camera or video. Have not used the Pen. Did not buy the matching case for it, still using a case that does not fit it. So, I've fallen asleep and dropped it or knocked it over to the carpeted floor four times now from a four foot high bed. No damage and no issues. Mostly watch Netflix, Hulu and Prime on it. Perfect quality image. 4K videos look very good on this tablet. Sound is great. One thing I don't like is the unavailability of the back buttons being displayed. Charges fast and lasts a decent amount of time. No complaints at all. I love it.

This tablet has been going on sale for $279 on the Lenovo official website for over a month and a half I hope nobody is paying this price.
You can add a email sign up coupon code and code EXTRA5 for even more savings I only paid $246. Don't get scammed Make sure your price matching Best buy call them back if you have time to price match still or return.
It really is a great tablet but not at the $380 price Best buy is doing.

Was looking for a something to take notes for college. I tried using the S6 Lite which had a screen with a little over 10 inches of space. However, it definitely felt cramped, like I was constantly scrolling around in OneNote to keep track of things I wrote earlier. The extra nearly 3 inches from the P12 made a huge difference. Writing is much more enjoyable; I'm able to lean back in my chair with the tablet rested in my lap while taking notes. If you don't want to fork out the premium price of the large variant iPads, this tablet will be a great alternative.

Great Christmas gift for 11yr old. This has been a great gift for my daughter. She uses it all the time. The pen works great for the art that she does and she lives to play games on it. The picture is amazing as well. Best buy had a great price on it during the Holidays and I'm glad I took advantage. I recommend purchasing a durable cover.

For $400 I was surprised by the Intel storage 256 GB multitasking is a must. Definitely good for gaming. JBL sound quality is on another level. Using a pen on tablet screen this size is worth buying.

This has been the greatest decision I've made. I kept going back and forth between Samsung and Lenovo, and they are both great options. But I went for Lenovo because of the price and reviews. It is great quality with the build of it, the screen quality and overall mechanism. The pen works great and easy to connect. I've had it six months and have had no issues. The volume and speakers are great quality and the screen is so crisp. I use it for school and as a planner. The camera quality is decent for a tablet. Video quality is excellent!

After contemplating a Tab s10 ultra and other very similar tablets, I decided to grab this. Its cost efficient, the PC Mode is absolutely gorgeous and fantastic and allows for a absolutely seamless experience with floating windows and the ability to rearrange them wherever you like whenever you like, it has the ability to minimize, expand and close like a regular window pc would and honestly you wouldn't know you were working a tablet because Lenovo has it set up to look just like your desktop. So its very comfy in that aspect. Ive rigged it up to use VSCode, Figma and other tools I need and set it up as a office space for paper work out in the field. It has been an amazing experience so far and was worth the money spent on it.
If there is 1 thing I would change on this, It would be its RAM size. It is now year 2025, and I personally feel anything less then a minimum of 12 to 16gb of RAM is a little criminal. Having 8gb of ram will become tough later on when doing larger projects BUT but I have yet to see it overloaded so i think it is pretty well optimized for its 8gb of RAM

Great for multi tasking. Got rid of my old iPad. Lenovo tech is extremely reliable. Easy to use, great large screen. Incredible sound. Still exploring the open capacity. For the price so glad I picked one up. Would have gave a 5 rating, but everything has room for improvement.
