Good price on this mid-range Lenovo Android tablet that's the Chinese version of the Lenovo Tab P12, except it offers a Matte display that'll reduce the glare from light. The non-matte P12 is available locally from JB Hi-Fi for a whopping A$449 "on sale", although it does have double the storage at 256GB. For those who are after a Lenovo stylus pen there are bundles on the listing with it included for more.

The Xiaoxin Pad Plus is the smaller brother of the high-end Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2025 and as such has more mid-range specs. This is still perfectly fine for gaming and general usage, but if you're after the more serious gaming get the Pad Pro.

Features include Android 13 with Google Play (Android 14 & 15 coming), 12.7" 60Hz 2944x1840 IPS Matte display, MediaTek Dimensity 7050 CPU with Mali-G68 MC4 GPU, Widevine L1 DRM, 128GB Storage (microSD support), 8GB RAM. 10200mAh battery with 30W fast charging, 4 JBL Speakers w/ Dolby Atmos, 2 inbuilt mics, 13MP rear camera, 8MP front camera, fingerprint reader, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, USB-C connectivity, magnetic attaching place for Lenovo Tab Pen Plus and pogo pins for a keyboard.

This one has been flashed with the Lenovo P12 Global ROM and given the same hardware I don't believe this to be an issue. From my research there's no unlocked bootloader, OTA updates, Netflix HD and Google Play out of the box. This was the case with the Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2022 1300T that ran the same hardware as it's global counterpart.

    Are they Lenovo official store? I meant selling genuine products?

    • Clear on 30/11/2024 - 22:59

      They're all resellers and "Big Save" products have been verified by AliExpress. There's also no such thing as a fake Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Plus.

      Selling genuine Lenovo products, yes, but official store? I don't think so

    Thankyou legend @Clear
    I looked at this in Officeworks today for 449 on sale.
    I got it with the original case and after coupon it was 273.50
    I didn't bother changing to USD or anything to get that price

      How was the tablet when you checked it out in person?

      • opelcalibra on 30/11/2024 - 23:10

        Great screen, basically the same size as the iPad air 13 inch.
        Android looked pretty stock.
        Build quality was great.

        • Clear on 30/11/2024 - 23:15

          The Officeworks one has a non-Matte screen so it may look a little better than this one.

    • chid on 30/11/2024 - 23:10

      did you think of getting it with the Pen? I'm surprised Officeworks had this in matte.

      • opelcalibra on 30/11/2024 - 23:11

        I'll just get a pen later.
        I mostly browse, use it on the plane and play balatro on my tablet

        • chid on 30/11/2024 - 23:12

          fair enough, it looks like it's cheaper to add at the time is all

          • opelcalibra on 30/11/2024 - 23:15

            @chid: The price jumped again after i ordered.
            Before discount and tax It was 283 with case now it's 300

            • chid on 30/11/2024 - 23:18

              @opelcalibra: I think that's because the coupon code can't be used but yes it does look like between my "cheaper to add" comment and yours - I bought it and now prices are up.

  • spikiii on 30/11/2024 - 23:23

    sorry for this question - i'm an android tablet newbie.

    For the missus, general web browsing usage, note taking and mainly streaming media - would you pick this or the google pixel tablet (currently still on sale for $348 @ JB) ?

    • chid on 30/11/2024 - 23:25
      +2

      I think really it depends on the size you're after this one is huge (comparably speaking)

      • spikiii on 30/11/2024 - 23:26

        oh yeh good point, i completely overlooked that!! this would be too big for her - thanks !

    • opelcalibra on 30/11/2024 - 23:26
      +2

      Either will suffice
      As a non android person you might want the ability to return it or know you have google support.
      But this one is almost 2 inches bigger screen

    • opelcalibra on 30/11/2024 - 23:28
      +2

      You could also consider the TCL 11 from Harvey Norman

      Or the Lenovo M11

      Both are $100 cheaper than the Google pixel

      But for simplicity the pixel is probably a good choice

    • spikiii on 30/11/2024 - 23:45

      Thanks for the replies - really appreciate it!

  • CVonC on 30/11/2024 - 23:43

    Why oh why your Lenovo tablet deals are usually from an affiliated store :(

      • chid on 01/12/2024 - 00:13

        no stacking cash back which would take an additional $30 off the cost.

  • 4ustralian on 01/12/2024 - 00:09

    "Free returns within 90 days" - You might pay for the shipping cost…

  • Cataclysm on 01/12/2024 - 00:22

    How is plus compare to pro

  • AsukaLangleySohryu on 01/12/2024 - 00:26

    The coupon code AUBF40 seems to no longer be working?

  • waynet93 on 01/12/2024 - 08:04

    I bought the Chinese rom version costing slightly more. It'll receive more OTA updates/longer support, only thing is Google isn't installed by default. Just has to be enabled in settings and downloaded via Lenovo app store.

    Great value tablet either way, just do some research regarding Global Vs Chinese ROMs.

    • Public21 on 01/12/2024 - 09:19

      Couldn't see the "non-global" ROM. What's the search term? Chinese ROM,…. PRC ROM - or just no mention?

      Edit: NM - I gather it is "China ROM".

  • theguwithnoname on 01/12/2024 - 08:47

    Any cheaper tablet deals in the $100-$200 AUD range?

    • opelcalibra on 01/12/2024 - 10:05

      Take a look at the teclast t60 potentially
      Or maybe the TCL tab10L at Harvey Norman

  • RickyNelson on 01/12/2024 - 08:57

    Now ~$265 after coupon code applied.

    • deeevan on 01/12/2024 - 13:05

      Did you pay in AUD? USD166.10 came to exactly AUD255.89 just now

  • ElusiveA on 01/12/2024 - 11:35

    Would this be any good for Uni basics? Taking notes, marking up PDF’s, zoom calls?
    It’s a lot cheaper than an iPad.

    • opelcalibra on 01/12/2024 - 13:18
      +1

      Yes it would dominate this.

  • lippar on 01/12/2024 - 15:15

    Can anyone please comment on using this for note-taking at university (with the stylus? or buying third party pens?) and how that might compare with galaxy s-pen or apple pencil experience? mainly just using goodnotes/one-note,

  • jlwjlg on 01/12/2024 - 16:55

    Thanks. $293 bundle with pen and case.

  • pennywiseandpissed on 01/12/2024 - 17:07

    what is a good keyboard case for this? The ones that use the pogo pins?
    does Aliexpress sell the genurine Lenovo Keyboard pack?, i.e. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/accessories-and-software/tabl…
    Would it even be compatible?
    Open to suggestures for a budget friendly solution

    AUBF40 not valid anymore but you can use OZBF30, for whatever reason there was a $10 discount for using PayPal Pay in 4 so I did that, taking it down to $265.97. Not as low but not $300 :)
