After heaps of requests the extremely popular 2025 version of the Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Pro is back on sale for less and it packs a lot of punch for the price. This deal is strictly limited and applies to both the 8GB/128GB and 8GB/256GB variants in the colour grey. Once exhausted the price will go to US$216.49 (~A$344.95).

Compared to the Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2023 the main improvements include the newer and faster flagship MediaTek Dimensity 8300 CPU that blows the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 out of the water making it far more suitable for gaming, a brighter 12.7" 600 nits display (was 400 nits), more future Android updates (currently ships with Android 14), 45W fast charging (was 20W), the option of 12GB RAM and Bluetooth 5.3.

Other features include ZUI 16 (Android 14), 12.7" 144Hz 2944x1840 LCD display with 600nits brightness, Widevine L1 DRM, 128GB or 256GB UFS 3.1 storage with microSD support, 8GB or 12GB RAM, 10200mAh battery with 45W fast charging, 4 JBL Speakers with Dolby Atmos, 2 inbuilt mics, 13MP rear camera, 8MP front camera, fingerprint reader, WiFi 6 ax, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS, USB-C 3.2 port with 4K@60Hz video out and pogo pins for a keyboard.

  • Add "Bundle: Limited" and either "Color: 8GB 128GB Grey" or "Color: 8GB 256GB Grey" to the cart
  • Apply the coupon OZAU20 or AUNY30 or AFAU20 at checkout

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.

      Btw is this CN ROM? Was thinking of buying anyway, but saw in the description of the Aliexpress it says CN ROM?

      I'd say a tablet is one of the worst devices to use for taking notes in a lecture.
      If "notes" involve just highlighting and commenting on a PDF then ok, but for any amount of typing I find it horrible. The handwriting recognition is OK but its not reliable enough to quickly take notes of spoken speech.

      It depends on the course. If OP is doing a BA, there's no need for even the Kmart version -the only important things for a BA graduate to remember is that an almond latte uses almond milk and a soy latte uses soy milk.

  • dishlex on 25/01/2025 - 23:00

    Thanks Clear. I've been hanging out for a Xiaoxin tablet for a while to read Manga. Decided on this one!

        Ohh, thank you! I've been using Cover for Windows and really liked it. Mihon looks fantastic.

        • Caped Baldy on 26/01/2025 - 00:57

          I've not used Cover but Mihon needs to be sideloaded and requires downloading extensions for the different sources and keeping them updated. Some settings need to be changed like turning off smart updates which prevents global updating from the library page. Searching for comics/manga is annoying as you need to select "All" instead of "Pinned".

          It used to be called Tachiyomi so you can try searching that for any troubleshooting issues or ask me.

  • kuwahshi on 25/01/2025 - 23:07

  • DraggyX on 25/01/2025 - 23:11

    Why did review say it can't run streaming services like netflix? Cos china banned google I guess?

    • Clear on 25/01/2025 - 23:18
      +5

      Streaming services will be no issue as it's ZUI and has Widevine L1

      The original listing was for the Xiaoxin Pad 2023 "global" ROM and the unofficial ROM has issues. The listing was later updated for the 2025 version but the old reviews remain. The reason for changing the listing is because it ranks higher in search results.

      Since it's a Big Save product it's eligible for free returns too 😊

          How big a discount? My last (and first) tablet was a Lenovo M10 3rd gen I got for $99 from Aldi (and have since passed on to the offspring). No way I'm spending more than $300.

    • Schrodinger on 26/01/2025 - 20:16

      I'm glad I got the older one with OLED instead of the waiting now.

      Its sometimes not. Bright enough compares to Samsung and LG OLED panels I have on other devices. But still prefer it to LCDs.

  • 51OL on 26/01/2025 - 01:27

    Are most keyboards compatible or do we need to get the 2025 version too?

  • amazon on 26/01/2025 - 06:56

    I paid $427 for this back in November, presumably with cash back. That was me 'settling' for less, as I actually wanted a GPD rather badly, but couldn't justify the cost. This seems alright so far, haven't really put it to the test though. The screen brightness has a niggling issue with automatic dimming - it usually dims itself too low, and much too often, which is annoying. Also, it seems possible that there could be some malware on it. While I was setting it up/installing apps, I received a strange popup notification in my ebay app, which definitely wasn't from ebay. Perhaps I installed a dodgy apk earlier on, really can't say to be sure. Not to worry though, I'll probably install a different ROM on it at some stage/degoogle it ideally.

    • wisdomtooth on 26/01/2025 - 07:00

      Which one? With a CN ROM, didn't it come degoogled out of the box?

      • amazon on 26/01/2025 - 08:44
        +2

        Yes, I got the CN ROM after reading comments about the global ROM. Not sure if either of those ROMs are 100% trustworthy, so I'd still rather install a different ROM for peace of mind.

        • wisdomtooth on 26/01/2025 - 09:40

          Which one?

        • behindthearcane on 26/01/2025 - 10:28

          @amazon I got mine previously and have been looking to get something like LineageOS. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a custom ROM for it even a TWRP image to try going with a GSI image yet. Still looking occasionally but have currently settled for going a bit aggressive using the Universal Android Debloater.

              @65 7a: @65 7a No. I have not been able to even get the sn.img file from http://www.zui.com/iunlock. I keep getting a message saying that the IMEI is wrong despite selecting the Lenovo Tablet option which does not have an IMEI field. I have seen others report your issue though on XDA and 4PDA. How did you get the sn.img so that I can give it a try on my end?

            Will see if I can add mine to the postmarketos device wishlist :)

            • behindthearcane on 27/01/2025 - 10:42

              @amazon: @amazon A linux tablet would definitely be interesting. The Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2021 currently has the ROM and a TWRP image available so this one (the 2025 model) may have to wait until that stage. That one is also Snapdragon based. Personally, I would probably prefer mine to stay android for the sake of battery life. I have enough linux machines. First time I have heard of postmarketos though. Will look into it.

  • Roger Wilco on 26/01/2025 - 08:57

        I ended up using mine only to watch movies in bed at night. Now I passed it onto the offspring, and barely miss it, watching movies on the phone instead, which has a better screen (POCO M5s OLED vs Lenovo M10 3G IPS). In fact, I find it a relief having one less device to manage, keep updated, etc. I'm considering just getting a portable OLED monitor and connect it to my Firestick instead (which I could connect it to the phone, but it seems that's not an option).

                    @thangcuoi: The DHL package turned out to be the free nuts & bolts replacement from IKEA. Pretty great service, considering that it's free.

        I'm in Melbourne, and my package was scanned in at 10 am.

        Through all the years I have been shopping online, this would be one of the very few times where I will be rating this transaction low for poor communication, because the tracking info are frequently several days late.

      Just received mine today on the 12th. Tracking still hasn't been updated since 5th Feb.

        Mine has also been delivered today.

        Tracking status went from Arrived at destination yesterday (but showing as 10am 10th Feb) to Delivered today, with 12 separate status updates, including half listed as from 11th Feb (but they were definitely not there when I checked this morning.

        According to the external postal packaging, the item was delivered by DHL. I thought DHL is known for their world class delivery service. How could they have been twice as slow as whatever AliExpress Choice was using, and had one of the worse tracking service?

        On the more positive side, the postal packaging was really good, protected within a strong bubble shield thing.

        The tablet also came with a 45W charger + USB-C to C cable, and a local adaptor that I won't need as I have a Xiaomi powerboard.

    My experience so far since receiving the tablet yesterday.

    I love the fast charging. The tablet came with 60-ish percent battery pre-charged. The included 45W charger top up the charge to 100% pretty quickly.

    Two small system updates waiting. It's nice that a cheap tablet is still getting update. Restarting after the update was also reasonably fast.

    Too many pre-installed apps. Fortunately, most of them can be uninstalled or disable. It's a good idea to uninstall them as soon as you can. See below for the reason.

    The Google Play Store will automatically be installed after you activate the Google Play Services in System Settings. Unless you have a really fast internet connection, the Play Store will not appear immediately on your home screen, as the app updates has priority.

    Anyone know how to get Quick Share (Nearby Share) working? I've tried manually installing the 3 apks from my Samsung phone, and gave them all the necessary permissions, but it crashed when I try to share something. I'll try installing the Samsung app store next.

    The other thing I find annoying is the Lenovo installer taking over when I attempt to manually install an APK. Would love to know how to disable that.
