The 7,700 mAh battery should get you through a day of moderate use. In our rundown test, in which we stream HD video over Wi-Fi at full brightness, the Tab P11 Plus lasted for 7 hours and 58 minutes of screen time before shutting down, just about an hour shy of the TCL Tab Pro 5G (9 hours and 1 minute).When the battery runs low, the tablet supports 20W charging, allowing you to add a few hours of power in just 15 minutes. Typical Tablet Cameras With a single-core score of 527 and a multi-core score of 1,614 on Geekbench 5, performance is very roughly analogous to the flagship Snapdragon 845 from 2018.

An unfortunate point too is the poor quality of the selfie camera. In a world where video conferencing has become nigh on impossible to avoid, it feels like an oversight. Although there are few included webcams which are ‘good’ in any given device, our presence during work calls was as a ghost haunting the frame - not exactly a good look by any definition. Initial impressions were strong; programs load up super-fast and the tablet feels generally responsive. From a complete shutdown, booting to the home screen only takes a few seconds. We opened a tonne of tabs in Chrome and didn’t see any noticeable slowdown, though it’s worth bearing in mind that the Android version of Chrome isn’t as power-hungry as it is on desktop PCs.A big win for the tablet though is battery life. On Wi-Fi (an LTE option is available) we were able to eke out over 10 hours of screen-on-time across several days of use. The keyboard itself is a typical Lenovo, which isn’t to say that it has the quality of a ThinkPad, but that it has broad key caps and decent key travel - certainly for this kind of effort and at this size point. Something that Lenovo hasn’t seen fit to improve was the unimpressive cameras of the original. We’ve still just got a 13MP rear camera and an 8MP front webcam. They’re not the worst cameras we’ve ever seen on a tablet, but their performance can be described as resoundingly ‘meh’, which is a bummer for those thinking of making lots of video calls on their tablet. For light work, the P11 Pro is more than adequate - it is a good writing companion in particular. It will work for spreadsheets in a pinch, and the G Suite of apps is well suited to collaborative work. More specialist or demanding users will be better suited by a laptop, even at the same price point.

The quad-speakers put on a good showing too. They get plenty loud without distorting at high volumes, and make a decent go at stereo separation. Bass in particular is a highlight, though there is also detail in the mids and trebles, so these are particularly well suited to action movies. For the kind of tasks one might traditionally expect of the tablet form factor, the Lenovo Tab P11 Pro is more than capable. Lenovo Tab P11 Pro: battery life

The Top Android Tablet for the Price

The question has been asked again and again: who takes photos on a tablet? Clearly there is an audience, otherwise rear cameras on tablets would have gone the way of the dinosaurs. This will mean that, when long distance travel is once again possible, it will make an excellent companion for frequent fliers. Standby times were a particular highlight, with the device only dropping a few percentage points per night. The base model is available with Wi-Fi only, while a more expensive model is available with LTE via an included SIM tray. Memory and RAM configurations are standard, there are no options with either more storage or RAM. Lenovo Tab P11 Pro: design The Lenovo Tab P11 Plus is powered by a MediaTek Helio G90T processor and will run most apps that you throw at it. For my daily use, which included watching videos curated by Android's Entertainment Space, looking up recipes, web browsing, and solving the day's Wordle, the Tab P11 Plus handled it all like a champ. It was only when I began playing graphics-intensive games such as Asphalt 9 and Iron Blade that the tablet started to show signs of weakness. Those looking to get any work done may run into a bigger issue than app compatibility however, which is app availability. Android does not have nearly as well developed an app ecosystem for tablets as exists for iPads. Those looking to make a potential switch should make sure everything they need is on the other side before progressing.

Performance is mostly adequate. The Tab P11 Pro undercuts several rival models available from Samsung by offering a weaker processor, the Snapdragon 730G, which is paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. In all, the Lenovo Tab P11 Pro feels more than worth its price tag - while simultaneously being tough enough to take a few bashes and keep on going. Lenovo Tab P11 Pro: display A nice addition too is the inclusion of a relatively fast charger in the box. Charging an 8,600mAh battery is a considerable undertaking, so this kind of charger is almost compulsory.

The screen ratio of 16:10 is great for video content; however it is a little less ideal for document work. Though more of an annoyance than a general problem, 3:2 screens are a little taller and allow a bit more of any document to be reviewed. There was clearly a balancing act being performed here, and the skew was towards video. This is an excellent showing, and is complemented by the ability to fast charge and strong standby times. The P11 Pro will be a welcome companion to those who like to binge an entire season from Netflix in one go.
