Two devices, three models, plenty of reasons for you to consider a purchase
These Idea Tab Plus specs are nothing to sneeze at
- 12.1-inch LCD screen with 2560 x 1600 pixel resolution;
- MediaTek Dimensity 6400 processor;
- Android 15;
- Two guaranteed OS upgrades and four years of security patches;
- 8GB RAM;
- 128GB internal storage space;
- microSD card slot;
- 13MP rear-facing camera;
- 8MP front-facing camera;
- Four speakers tuned by Dolby Atmos;
- 10,200mAh battery;
- 45W charging support;
- 530 grams weight;
- 278.8 x 181.05 x 6.29mm dimensions;
- Luna Grey color;
- Lenovo Tab Pen included.
Marketed as “thinner than a notebook” and lighter “than a bottle of water”, the Idea Tab Plus looks… about as sleek and stylish as an Android slate in its price bracket can look without making (too many) under-the-hood compromises. That Dimensity 6400 SoC, in case you’re wondering, is the same one used by respectable new phones like the Realme 15T, although it’s obviously not as fast as the Dimensity 8300 inside the costlier aforementioned Idea Tab Pro.
The 6.29mm waist, meanwhile, grows to 8.55mm at the tablet’s thickest point (which is still not bad), with that battery likely to prove a key strength and selling point over other sub-$300 devices as it can purportedly last for up to 13 hours (of YouTube streaming) on a single (blazing fast) charge.
And these are the not-too-shabby Lenovo Idea Tab specs
- 11-inch display with 2560 x 1600 pixel resolution and 90Hz refresh rate capabilities;
- MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor;
- Android 15;
- Two guaranteed OS upgrades and four years of security patches;
- 4 and 8GB RAM options;
- 128GB internal storage space;
- microSD card slot;
- 8MP rear-facing camera;
- 5MP front-facing camera;
- Quad Dolby Atmos-enhanced speaker system;
- 7,040mAh battery;
- 20W charging support;
- 480 grams weight;
- 254.59 x 166.15 x 6.99mm dimensions;
- Luna Grey color.
Unlike the single-model (in the US) Idea Tab Plus, the non-Plus Idea Tab comes with 4GB RAM at a retail price of $189.99 and 40 bucks more for an extra four gigs of the good stuff. Both variants seem to deliver pretty great value for your money, somewhat surprisingly supporting 90Hz screen refresh rate technology while squeezing a significantly smaller battery into a slightly thicker body than that of the larger Idea Tab Plus.
The Galaxy Tab S10 FE duo is in (even bigger) trouble
When it comes to competitively priced mid-range tablets, it’s hard to find better options available in the US today than the trio composed of the Lenovo Idea Tab, Idea Tab Plus, and Idea Tab Pro.

Should you pull the trigger?
Can I guarantee that the Lenovo Idea Tab and Idea Tab Plus will please you in every one of those areas if you decide to make a purchase today? Absolutely not. But in terms of (theoretical) bang for your buck, these ultra-affordable big guys pretty much have no competition at the time of this writing, which I’m sure will be enough for many of you to take a (small) gamble on (one of) them.
