The market continues to offer a very substantial improvement in the sector of the affordable tabletsthose whose price does not usually exceed 200 euros. They are models that are not designed for excessively ambitious tasks but they offer the best at the multimedia experience level and lately also in tasks where the pencil becomes prominent.

The newly released Lenovo Ideapad Tab With 11 -inch screen is a model that, in its basic version, is already coming with an included PEN. There we already have a starting point to go beyond the usual in multimedia or leisure tablets.

Design, screen and sound: comfortable and with many multimedia possibilities

Lenovo already has extensive experience in the tablets sector. In fact, its catalog is one of the broadest we can find. The Ideapad Tab family forms its starting point at the level of specifications and price and a perfect example is the 11 -inch model, somewhat more ambitious than basic models with somewhat lower diagonal.

He Lenovo Ideapad Tab It offers the consumer a very careful design, with metallic finish and where we highlight its low weight (less than 500 grams) and thickness (less than 7 mm). Thanks to this, the Lenovo tablet is comfortable to handle and use with one hand, but we will need a case both to protect it and to serve as a stand.

In the metal rear we have a band of different tone that visually indicates the area of ​​the camera module. As soon as he stands out of design and is well integrated. Inside we have a 8 MP secondary chamber of basic but sufficient results for such a tablet.

To be an entrance range model, the Lenovo Ideapad Tab highlights especially for its little thickness and weight, which manages to make it very manageable and comfortable to use

While the general finish and design of that ideapad Tab is much higher than we would expect in a range and entrance team, there are details that squeak us. The most obvious, which are actually for purely aesthetic issues, have to do with the situation of the USB-C port of load, which is not centered, or the placement of the 3.5 mm Jack port just in a corner. The consequences of a fairly reduced thickness in this range of equipment.

The good level of the new Lenovo tablet remains on the screen. The panel of this Lenovo Ideapad Tab is an 11 -inch IPS with a resolution of 2560×1600 pixels, format 16:10 and brightness of 500 nits. Logically, the brightness is far from the reference models of the mid -range and the screen looks very well for the day to day. The contrast, 1,500: 1 or color coverage, 72% NTSC, are less prominent points.

The tablet version we have analyzed does not include anti -reflex treatment on the panel. But there is a version that does integrate it and it would be advisable to opt for it. In both cases the frequency of screen soda is 90 Hz And the protection protection of the protective glass of the screen is very effective.

The Lenovo Ideapad Tab screen is balanced, with size and resolution that helps us enjoy multimedia content as well as creating content with the help of the include tab pen

Another difference with more price screens is in the frames. This Lenovo model presents some quite visible but symmetrical frames (Body-Papalla ratio of 85%).

In the upper one there is a place for a 5 MP webcam that supports the Face identificationsomething key since we do not have a footprint reader. It is also an essential element for video calls, which are complemented by the microphone, in this unique case.

While that mono microphone seems just for a multimedia tablet, no paste we can put the Sound system based on four speakers with Dolby Atmos. The sound is powerful enough to have it in front of us and enjoy without problems, balanced and with sufficient sensation of surround sound. You just have to take care not to cover excess the speakers of the speakers located in the side frames so as not to lose quality and sound power.

Regarding connectivity, in addition to the USB-C 2.0 port, we have a microSD slot to expand the internal memory of the device, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS and Wi-Fi 5. In addition there is a pogo connector compatible with accessories created for this model, such as a keyboard, and magnetic surface within the upper frame for the placement of the Lenovo Conte and Pen Plus. In the version we have analyzed in Xataka, The simple tab pen came standard.

Performance, software and autonomy: all in balance

Lenovo bets on this ideapad Tab for the Dimensity 6300 processor of MediaTak, and an old acquaintance here. Its 8 cores are paired with a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 8 GB. The internal memory can be 128 GB for both versions or 256 GB, only available for the model with 8 GB of RAM.

In our test we have worked with the 8 GB model. Experience has resulted in general but we have noticed some other pull by moving through the interface, but only in a timely manner. Despite this, we recommend Always opt for the 8 GB version to guarantee a better experience and life of the tablet.

In the elementary performance tests, the mediaatek socates more than complies with its range.

As has happened to us with other devices with the same Mediatek chip, heat stability and management is almost ideal. In our stability tests the Lenovo Ideapad touched perfection, also doing it with minimum heat transferred to the housing. It doesn’t matter if we are playing or watching videos that we can use the tablet with your hands safely.

The little weight and thickness of the Lenovo Ideapad Tab does not allow the Chinese manufacturer to place a very capacity battery. Or at least above the average. In this model we find a battery with the capacity to 7040 mAh that gives us between 6-7 hours of real use Combining multimedia, navigation and some office. If we dedicate it only to see multimedia content, for example, we can stretch even a couple more hours.

Fast charge is 20W maximumwhich gives us more than 1 hour and 20 minutes for full load. It comes without standard charger.

The Lenovo Ideapad Tab reaches the market with a slight layer of Lenovo on Android 15. It is one Simple layer without too much Bloatware but neither own applications. Here you have to like everything that has to do with Google and Android 15 because from Lenovo we barely find the Lenovo Vantage application for guarantee management, updates or basic tablet configuration as well as Smart Connect for a better integration of devices in the Lenovo ecosystem.

Yes, we find a couple of elementary applications for drawing as well as hand notes or keyboard. In the latter they include basic functions of AI as summary or translation of texts. And of course there is total integration with Gemini And various aid so that, in case we want, we can have both floating windows and easily divided screen.

Lenovo Ideapad Tab, Xataka’s opinion and note

Already entered at the beginning of the course at home and offices, especially as far as students are concerned, the Lenovo Ideapad Pad It reaches the market in its 11 -inch format with a large pedigree panel and perfectly valid to enjoy multimedia content alone or even in company thanks to its powerful four speakers.

The Lenovo Ideapad Tab offers a basic configuration that yields correctly thanks to how little loaded it is the layer on Android 15. But it does include several drawing and notes programs with which to take advantage of a great ally that comes standard: the Lenovo Basic Pen. Enough to take notes and even draw.
