Reviews for the Lenovo Tab P12 Pro
The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is a premium tablet with a focus on productivity. It transforms into a 12.6-inch laptop alternative with both stylus and multi-display support thanks to its keyboard dock and kickstand.

The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro still makes a lot of sense if you’re here for digital artwork, though, and the bundled full-size Lenovo stylus feels great. Lenovo has also made sure no element feels left behind. Well, aside from the headphone jack, which is left out completely. The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro speakers are great, the screen is punchy and the ultra-slim design helps you forget quite how big a footprint this thing has, compared to classic tablet designs. We’re not seeing new standards set here, but if you can find the Lenovo at the right price online, go for it.

The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is a premium Android tablet and everything works just fine for the most part. The Productivity mode still requires some work, but overall, the tablet is powerful enough to handle multiple apps at once and even a bit of gaming. The 2-in-1 keyboard cover is definitely a must-have for the Tab 12 Pro as it offers a comfortable typing experience, although the trackpad sensitivity requires some adjustment. However, what the Tab P12 Pro, and nearly every other Android tablet, still lacks is proper support when it comes to third-party apps and a desktop-class usage experience, which is something you can only get on a proper desktop-class OS. The Tab 12 Pro still has a reason to exist though, since most laptops in this price segment do not offer the convenience and portability of a tablet. The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro should appeal to artists or creators looking for a precision stylus along with a quality display. However, for serious productivity users, Samsung's Galaxy Tab S8+ seems like a better package, but also costs a lot more (Rs. 67,999 onwards).

The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is a very well balanced high-end Android tablet that’s perfect for media consumption, courtesy of a colour-rich 12.6in AMOLED display and four great sounding speakers. Its design is suitably premium, its software suitably clean and focused, and I’m a fan of the bundled Precision Pen stylus. However, its performance – whilst decent – isn’t quite what you might expect from a genuine Pro tablet and the same is true of battery life. To that end, its price tag feels ever so slightly steep. If you can find it for a hefty discount, however, then it’s a genuinely viable alternative to the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 range – especially if you intend to watch a lot of video content.

The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is good, but it’s not great – especially in the cut-throat Android tablet market. This fairly powerful tablet has a high-res screen and a stylus, which comes in handy for certain tasks; but it misses out on a few killer features that it could really use, both on the software and hardware fronts.

The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is a versatile, premium tablet that will be great for working on during the day and chilling out with in the evening - that’s partly due to the big 12.6-inch AMOLED screen, and partly down to its performance because it will be able to cope with anything you could throw at it. The huge battery means that this will last if you need to use it when you’re out and about, or to entertain you during long journeys. Plus, it will charge back up again very quickly. To play devil's advocate, this tablet isn't completely perfect because the camera system leaves a lot to be desired and if you plan to use it for tablet art or sketching then the stylus might not be precise enough, but those points won’t be dealbreakers for most people. You do get plenty of bang for your buck because while the Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is expensive, it's not as expensive as other tablets with similar screen sizes. I think it's well worth considering!

As a standalone tablet, the Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is priced competitively and makes for a stellar entertainment device. The large 12.6-inch display is great, and I appreciate Lenovo for including the Precision Pen 3 for those who need it. Until the official version of Android 12L arrives, I remain conservative in claiming that the Tab P12 Pro is the best of its breed. Minor inconveniences, like gesture bugs and input lag, disrupt what is a rather polished tablet, hardware-wise.

The Lenovo Tab P12 Pro is a high-end Android tablet that makes a concession or two in order to provide a great 12-inch display at a much lower cost than either Samsung or Apple. And that 120Hz OLED is a great display. Lenovo uses a Snapdragon 870, a mid-range chipset based on the top-end Qualcomm mobile CPU from 2020. It’s a lot less powerful than the Apple M1 of the iPad Pro or the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 tablets. But heat generation is low, and the tablet still handles almost all games well. You might want to consider this power drop more carefully if, for example, you’re into CPU/GPU-busting retro games emulation. Like Samsung, Lenovo puts significant effort into making the Lenovo Tab P12 Pro a feasible laptop replacement. And the included Precision Pen 3 stylus is very good – although Apple’s tablets still have the edge for creativity apps.

Lenovo mostly hit the mark with the Tab P12 Pro. The tablet matches the quality, performance, and pricing of its main rivals and also offers a few things they don’t. The Tab P12 Pro is a solid piece of hardware that’s well made, with a gorgeous display for consuming content or getting some work done. It pushes out plenty of speed and cranks out class-leading battery life. Biometrics ensure that the tablet is always secured and extras like JBL-tuned speakers and expandable storage give it a leg up. The tablet could have a better upgrade commitment from Lenovo. Two OS updates would be better than one. Moreover, the haptics are rather rough and the cameras could be better. Lenovo comes close to delivering the whole package here. The included stylus helps offset the P12 Pro’s price when compared to some competing tablets, and the well-rounded software suite and optional keyboard accessory make the tablet an appealing option as a potential productivity machine.

Android tablets are always trying to catch up to the iPad, which consistently seems to outperform on everything from productivity to entertainment. This is evident from Google scrapping the Pixel Slate, to Samsung’s various attempts at swaying us with amazing OLEDs, there simply has not been a really solid tablet for those who want to dive a bit deeper into the Android experience. However, Lenovo is trying its best to provide just that with the Tab P12 Pro. While it is undeniable that the P12 does have some notable downfalls such as the messy productivity mode, this device does manage to represent a good enough attempt at an Android tablet that is not a chore to use. As far as its design is concerned, the first noticeable thing about the design of the Lenovo P12 Pro is that, for a powerful tablet, it is quite thin. In fact, at only 5.6 mm, it is one of the thinnest tablets available right now in the market. In addition, at only 1.24 pounds, this tablet is not too heavy either, which is a good thing for portability. Surprisingly though, the thin body does not sacrifice its sturdy feel as it does take quite a bit of effort to snap it in half. Furthermore, the build is solid enough for a moderate drop on a carpeted floor.
In terms of its display, P12 Pro looks quite impressive. The 12.6-inch 2K AMOLED screen and the 120 Hz display refresh rate combination definitely caters for a sharp, smooth visual experience, particularly when it comes to scrolling through streaming services like Netflix or Hulu. It is worth noting that the Lenovo Precision Pen 3 is included with the device which is far from a given for tablets, and a 2-in-1 keyboard case is available for purchase separately. Overall, the pen does feel a bit cheap as compared to Samsung’s S Pen, for example, but it does magnetically attach to the back of the device, and fits comfortably in the small pocket on the keyboard case with no need to charge. It is worth mentioning that the cameras on the device are not too shabby either. As for the front-facing camera, it comes with 8MP fixed focus and TOF Sensor, while the two rear-facing cameras offer a 13MP autofocus and 5MP wide-angle. The images are surprisingly clear for a tablet, providing smartphone quality images, and the portrait mode is not too messy around the edges either, all thanks to the Google software. Furthermore, the front-facing camera is completely hidden even with the slim bezels, so there is no notch to be found on this device. In a nutshell, it is a great tablet to be explored, depending on the need and preference of the user.

Qualcomm Adreno 650: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC. Qualcomm claims that it is 25% faster than the Adreno 640 in the Snapdragon 855 SoC and offers 50% more compute units (ALUs). For Android it should be one of the fastest graphics cards in 2020.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

This range of display format is largely the upper limit for tablets and the lower limit for subnotebooks.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small in size and therefore easily portable. The tiny display has the added advantage of requiring little power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is exhausting for the eyes. High resolutions, which one is used to from a standard laptop, are almost not usable.
The same applies to tablets in this size range.
