Reviews for the Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2

86.5% Shocks the mid-range tablet class with fast WiFi and pen input - Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 review | Notebookcheck
In our review of the Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2, we show how the 13-inch Android tablet with WiFi 7, Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and pen support performs in everyday use - from display and performance to battery and cameras. Is the slimmer metal tablet worth it despite the higher price and short update period?
60% The Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 is a solid tablet and keyboard combo but still a little disappointing – and you'll hate the pen
Source: It Pro English
The biggest failing of the Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 might just be that it's not as good as its competitors. It probably also doesn't help that Lenovo's soon-to-be-released Yoga Tab Pro is, on paper, considerably better – the pen alone is a hell of an upgrade. So what we have here is an OK tablet, a good but confusing keyboard, and a poor, low-quality pen bundled in.

Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 hands-on: The best productivity tablet for students?
Source: Expert Reviews English
We’ll have to wait until we get our hands on one of these tablets before we can deliver our full verdict, but the Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 does look pretty promising. It seems to be well-made, well-priced and comes equipped with the sorts of AI features that might actually be useful. At a time when RAM and storage prices are set to drive prices of traditional laptops higher than ever, this might be just the thing the market needs. Could Android tablets finally be making a comeback? It certainly looks that way.
