This tablet from Lenovo has been very popular previously due to offering high end specs at a lower price than its competitors and now it's back. This tablet is easily one of the best for gaming, media consumption and general use. The 8GB/256GB version with UFS 4.0 storage is available for US$244.39 (~A$393.92).

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, updates until 2028), 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.

        Ah sorry. This listing from the same store has it for US$284.20 after codes.

          Oh no need to be sorry mate, really appreciate you remembering me :) I will check that out cheers!
          EDIT: Thanks but think i will wait this out since it works out to be around $490 with a pen, still waiting for the previous deal at around $408 aud (with case+protector+pen) for the 12/256gb model….still bummed that I got refunded by the seller (very dodgy)

        • Benjamin7711 on 03/03/2025 - 15:58

          Curious on your professional opinion - is this a good price for the 12GB+256GB? I guess curious if $150ish difference is normal or if it's more a case that the 8GB is on sale currently and 12GB isn't

            @Benjamin7711: I haven't paid much attention to that model and it seems according to homersyd that it's usually cheaper.

              @Clear: Thanks! Ended up yolo-ing the upgraded model - figured about $60 for the extra ram and $40-odd for storage was justifiable… plus the '1 left' badge worked a charm lol

  • elitistphoenix on 01/03/2025 - 19:18

    Custom os supported yet?

    • Clear on 01/03/2025 - 19:19
      +1

      I can't see a reason to go to a custom ROM if there was one. Especially if you care about Widevine L1 for media streaming, as bootloader unlocking will screw that up.

    • 65 7a on 01/03/2025 - 22:24
      +2

      yes, we've managed to unlock the bootloader by patching the lk partition
      there aren't any custom-built roms atm but GSI is pretty good on this device
      i run lineage 21 GSI rom. it breaks fingerprint and perhaps a few other features, but at least i can keep apps running in the background. for someone running syncthing and tailscale it was piss annoying having zui kill everything
      but yeah as clear has stated, if you care about widevine l1 don't do it

  • Outatime13 on 01/03/2025 - 19:45

    Great deal, is this one of the Lenovo tablets that you can use as a second monitor for windows?

    • J1990T on 01/03/2025 - 19:58

      I have one and yes you can do this.

      • CptnObvious on 01/03/2025 - 20:24

        How does it do it - just USB or does it have HDMI? If so, can it also be a monitor for PS4 or switch?

        Interested as well

  • sn0w on 01/03/2025 - 20:11

    Would 12gb version be worth it for about $100 more?

    • Swazz on 01/03/2025 - 23:30

      I got the 12gb version since I like to multitask, depends on your use case really. But $450 for 12gb 256gb is still super good value compared to competition.

    • skittlebrau on 02/03/2025 - 11:52
      +1

      I only got the 12GB version because I use mine for art and illustration among other things (can't afford an equivalent iPad Pro) as more RAM means I can work with more layers and more images at once.

  • HolyFosh on 01/03/2025 - 20:11

    Thinking heavily about getting this for watching TV in bed.

    I've been going back and forth on which tablet appeals to me more.

    But I do think that for this cheap its hard to go wrong…

    • Kai4039 on 01/03/2025 - 20:27

      If that's your goal might suggest a projector lol, much cheaper and more enjoyable. I have both and i never use the tablet. Jst my 2cent. Ofc you can use the tablet for other tasks. Gl

      • Francis82 on 02/03/2025 - 14:09

      There's so many to choose from. The basic silicon TPU cases are dirt cheap and plenty of folio cases around too.

      Last post deleted for shortened URL. I've been happy with mine if you like the folio style that stands it up but it's adds a bit of weight.

      Trued the reslly cheap one $5 and its not good but i felt this tablet will benefit a lot with a pen.

    Both codes mentioned have been used up and it doesn’t seem to meet the minimum criteria spend for AUCD30. By any chance would it be possible to get another code?

      CN which is what you want. Google Play, Widevine L1 and OTA updates.

      • Swazz on 01/03/2025 - 23:34

        Yeah cheers for the response! Snapped up the 12gb version when I realized the CN rom is actually superior for future updates.

        (Note for readers: The 12GB version is available from the same store but in a different listing.)

  • Swazz on 01/03/2025 - 22:22

    Is the Dimensity 8300 decent for gaming. From comparisons, it looks like it has the power of an A14 bionic (Iphone 12).

    • Clear on 01/03/2025 - 22:26
      +1

      Yeah it's definitely up there for performance/gaming and on par with the A14. It's ranked 18th and sits just below the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 3 and Snapdragon 6s Gen 3.

  • A female dog on 01/03/2025 - 23:05

    What are the main use cases for these tablets over the usual iPads and Samsung tablets? Are these “hackable” ie can crack Samsung / Google play store etc and tinker in that domain?

    • Clear on 01/03/2025 - 23:07
      +1

      It's a cheaper alternative with good specs to a more expensive Samsung tablet. Google Play works exactly the same on this than it would on a Samsung.

      • A female dog on 01/03/2025 - 23:27

        Sounds about right, cheers

  • somesomebargin123 on 02/03/2025 - 10:33

    I have the 11.2 2022 version, pretty good. Sad they didn't keep the 11 inch form factor, I think that's the ideal size.

    • whitepuma on 02/03/2025 - 10:51

      I think they made I larger because 11inch is a bit too small as a secondary monitor for a laptop

      • somesomebargin123 on 02/03/2025 - 10:54

        It's fairly difficult to make a generic android tablet into a secondary monitor. Usually need software which may or may not work, might need cables, might be laggy as, definitely isn't cross platform most of the time. The tablet usb c cannot function like a display output, I believe there's only a single tablet on the market that can do that.

        Better off just getting a portable external monitor.

        For reference, I found only Duet to be a cross compatible external monitor app for windows, linux and mac. But it has a monthly sub so I just bought an Arzopa 16inch 16:10 external monitor instead.

        • whitepuma on 03/03/2025 - 08:54

          this one is able to due dual monitor (i assume it's done through lenovo software), but they clearly show it in their promo video
