This previously popular tablet is back on sale and while it's not an all time low it's getting harder to find this tablet less than US$250. This is easily one of my favourite tablets if you want something more high end for gaming/media, as it has the fast Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 CPU, a large 12.7" display with 144Hz refresh rate, plenty of RAM/storage and Widevine L1 DRM for Netflix HD.

Featuring ZUI 15 (Android 14), 12.7" 2944x1840 LCD display with 400nits brightness, HDR10 & Dolby Vision, 128GB UFS 3.1 storage with microSD support, 8GB LPDDR5 RAM, 10200mAh battery with 20W fast charging, 4 JBL Speakers with Dolby Atmos, 2 inbuilt mics, 13MP rear camera, 8MP front camera, fingerprint reader, WiFi 6 ax, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, USB-C video out w/ 4K@60Hz and pogo pins for keyboard.

You must enable Google Play Services in Settings before you can use Google Play.

  • Add "Bundle: 8G 128G" and "Color: Grey Standard" to the cart
  • Apply the coupon OZAF30 or AUFF30 at checkout

Alternatively you can get the 8GB/256GB variant for US$227.33 with the coupon 200Z25B8 or 200Z25B10

AU$ based on current Mastercard rate and GST inclusive. Unfortunately this tablet is not eligible for cashback.

For those paying in USD this is how you get the correct exchange rate in PayPal:

Setting overseas websites to AUD or letting PayPal do the currency conversion results in an inflated rate. To get the correct rate you need a card without international fees and do the following:

  • Set the website currency to USD
  • Checkout with PayPal
  • Select your card with no international fees
  • Click "See currency options"
  • Select USD to bill the card in USD instead of AUD
  • Proceed with checkout

Now you'll get the correct MasterCard or VISA exchange rate depending on the card.

    Got it from last deal works perfect kids love it so they can play Roblox could not be happier highly recommended

    • Drekec on 14/09/2024 - 12:00

      How's the screen on it?
      Any cons?
      I know it's cheap just after some real world experience based info.
      Thanks

      • zorrt on 14/09/2024 - 13:36

        4k YouTube video crashes frequently on mine, lower res is fine. Remote desktop frequently quits itself also. Dont have anything else installed or use it all that much though.

  • AndrewMTG on 14/09/2024 - 11:31

    Can anyone comment on which pens work with these?

    • vinsontan on 14/09/2024 - 12:46

      It might work with the xiaoxin pen for the previous model. The pen is not cheap.

      • indojo24 on 14/09/2024 - 12:51

        Good thing is the 2025 version uses AP500U, which costs half (~45 AUD) of the pen for the 2023 version and prior.

    • Nickbag on 14/09/2024 - 13:39

      Only pen that works with this is precision pen 3 and it costs around $80-100.

  • BeefBiryani on 14/09/2024 - 11:47

    this or alldocube i50 pro?

    • flagsarefun on 14/09/2024 - 11:51

      Two completely different class sizes, the alldocube is 10.4" and this is 12.7"

    • Clear on 14/09/2024 - 12:06

      If you're happy with 12.7" this is going to be miles ahead..

    • TheFreaK on 14/09/2024 - 12:07

      A bit disappointed with the i50 pro to be honest

    Man it's wild how good value this is. Anything in this sorta price range is complete potato tier garbage if purchased locally.

    • Clear on 14/09/2024 - 12:07

      Yup. I don't like Samsung for this reason. They'll get the low end Unisoc CPU and slap a $300+ pricetag on it.

    Excellent tablet, no issues at all for content consumption with this large and good quality screen. I’d choose this tablet over basic iPads.

  • deepfriedchips on 14/09/2024 - 12:11

    Ended up paying ~$310 AUD, despite following the instructions from the OP. All good though, still more than happy with the price. Coming from a Lenovo p10 3rd gen.

    • augernised on 14/09/2024 - 13:02

      Same for me, AU$311.41 from following OPs instructions exactly

      • Clear on 14/09/2024 - 13:16

        And your card is an international transaction fee free card?

        • augernised on 14/09/2024 - 13:24

          Yes, ING

          Subtotal AU$307.55
          Coupon -$30
          Shipping free
          Tax $33.86
          Total $311.41

          • Clear on 14/09/2024 - 13:30

            @augernised: So your AliExpress currency was set to AUD? My instructions are for converting USD to AUD to get the correct rate.

            • augernised on 14/09/2024 - 13:37

              @Clear: Ok that makes sense and works, to be fair the wording in the post 'For those paying in USD..' under a different section kindof makes it sound like an option, not, do this exact thing to get the price posted - but appreciate your reply and for saving me another $11

              • Clear on 14/09/2024 - 13:55

                @augernised: For a long time no one ever needed to explain how to buy overseas in different currencies. Now that OzBargain has grown that's no longer the case.

                Basically always assume that an overseas website will have an incorrect rate.

    If you turn off the face recognition function, you will have a better battery life, it is a well known issue for this tablet in Chinese forum!

  • Geek Girl on 14/09/2024 - 12:16

    Can some one explain to a non Android person about "CN Rom, English and Chinese, no google" ?
    Does it mean the play store isn't on there by default and you've got to add it yourself ?
    I was think of picking a couple up for Home Assistant.

    • npc on 14/09/2024 - 12:34

      You need chinese rom and then sideload google app store when your tablet arrives. Other roms were not recommended based on my research.

    • Clear on 14/09/2024 - 12:37

      You enable Google Services in Settings then either download Google Play from the Lenovo app store or sideload it yourself.

  • takemymoney on 14/09/2024 - 12:24

    Can one wipe out and start afresh with stock android? Any feedback out in the wild?

    • indojo24 on 14/09/2024 - 12:46
      +1

      I don't think so. You're better off using the CN ROM and still getting OTA updates than be stuck with a broken global ROM and unlocked bootloader.

  • 80024 on 14/09/2024 - 12:35

    Thanks. Bought one previously for one of the kids… now the other kid gets one too!

  • Whatisthatvelvet on 14/09/2024 - 12:39

    Got this last deal a couple months back. Very happy with it and highly recommended

    Edit. Used this YT vid (thanks to Asaboy) to set up the tab for English use

  • Allaboutdiscounts on 14/09/2024 - 12:40

    Can i use this as external display for macbooks?

    • indojo24 on 14/09/2024 - 12:57

      no, at least not natively, because Smart Connect isn't available on MacOS, only Windows.

  • basicconsumer123 on 14/09/2024 - 12:43

    Is this good for note taking?

  • indojo24 on 14/09/2024 - 12:49

    Unless you want the stronger CPU, go for this one instead of the 2025 version. Screen specs and battery life are pretty much the same.

    The one annoying issue I have with these Lenovo tablets is that most apps will be "force stopped" if you close them via multi-tasking, which means you don't get push notifications anymore and features like Google Assistant stop working unless you set them up again.

    • Clear on 14/09/2024 - 12:55

      Yup the 2025 version is basically a CPU upgrade. There is a variant with a matte screen however.

      • indojo24 on 14/09/2024 - 13:01

        I have the 2025 version w/ matte screen and it feels very smooth and is easy to look at, also works really great w/ the pen. One downside is the grainy feeling that the screen gives off during video playback.

        Not sure if the matte screen is worth the extra 40 AUD or so when you can get a matte screen protector for less than half of that.

    Rocking this 12.7" for the last 6 months. Much better than the older 2021 11.5" OLED version. Although you really can't go wrong with any of the Xiaoxin models. Fantastic tablets at great price points.

  • TheForceWithin on 14/09/2024 - 12:59

    Does anybody know how this goes with local game streaming? Steam, moonlight etc? Latency?

    • TheForceWithin on 14/09/2024 - 13:35

      Did a bit of research myself and the 870 chipset should be great with low decode latency. Bought.

  • augernised on 14/09/2024 - 13:07

    Can anyone comment on delivery times (Sydney)?

    Estimated delivery time (if I buy today) says about 3.5 weeks, or Oct 9. I leave for an intl trip Oct 8 so just asking to see if Aliexpress is conservative with their estimates or not

    edit: I scrolled through pages of reviews just to see one say shipping to australia was faster than expected, so my confirmation bias took over. trigger pulled

  • niyaz006 on 14/09/2024 - 13:29

    How does this do multitasking with Netflix/gaming? Any suggestions for better RAM?

  • raybies on 14/09/2024 - 13:42

    Can anyone who owns this tell me if I can limit battery charge to 60%, like Samsung's Battery Protection which limits charging to 80% and this non descript device option https://support.lenovo.com/au/en/solutions/ht510061-howto-en…
    Thx.

  • ASR-Briggs on 14/09/2024 - 13:51

    Does anyone know of an AliExpress sourced, similarly specced tablet with 4G?

  • Mr Fusi0n on 14/09/2024 - 13:53

    Bought the 256gb model for around $368 AUD. Don't have a fee free card, and seemed a better deal than the recent s8 tablet. Still using a tab A from 2018 which is slow and unresponsive at times.

  • jordask on 14/09/2024 - 14:06

    Link checker tool shows as a non-affiliated product. That rules out CR and TCB cashback. How about SB?

  • kaotickelly on 14/09/2024 - 14:09

    Can any owner comment on the ability to use Hey Google on this tablet? Planning to use it for smart display and automation. Thanks in advance
