Today, Lenovo announced multiple products at its second summer product launch. The lineup includes new tablets, one of which is the Xiaoxin Pad Plus, a mid-range tablet that offers a lot for a pretty affordable price.
The Xiaoxin Pad Plus has an 11-inch LCD 2K (2000 x 1200) display with moderate-sized bezels of equal thickness on all sides. There is an 8MP ToF sensor in front with support for face unlock as the tablet doesn’t have a fingerprint scanner. On the back are a 13MP autofocus camera and an LED flash.
The tablet is powered by the Snapdragon 750G processor and comes with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. You get 110GB when you boot it up for the first time but there is a MicroSD card slot to add more storage if you want.
Lenovo ships it with ZUI 12.5 based on Android 11 and it comes with March 2021’s security patch. There is a 7700mAh battery inside the device and it has support for Quick Charge 3.0. The tablet charges via a Type-C 3.1 port and also via the four pogo pins at the bottom when in landscape mode. These pogo pins also connect to the optional keyboard designed for the tablet.
The Xiaoxin Pad Plus has four 1.5W JBL speakers and Dolby Atmos for surround sound. It also has dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.1 but doesn’t have support for 5G as there is no SIM slot.
Lenovo has put a price tag of ¥1999 on the Xiaoxin Pad Plus (~$312) which is way cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE which has similar specs and is priced at €649 (~$795). While Samsung’s own tablet has 5G, packs a significantly bigger battery, and comes with a stylus, it only has 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.
To make this an even better deal, Lenovo is offering a limited-time discount on the Xiaoxin Pad Plus. Those who pre-order between today and June 1, can pick it up for ¥1599 (~$250). The savings can be put towards the purchase of the Xiaoxin Active Capacitive Pen which is priced at ¥299 (~$47) or the ¥469 (~$73) Xiaoxin Pad Magnetic Keyboard. The latter has a trackpad and a built-in kickstand with a free stop hinge that can be adjusted between 0° and 165°.
Interested buyers can purchase the tablet and accessories on Lenovo’s official website.
