According to their roadmap, the P12 will have software support till 2027, I find that acceptable tbh and a nice change compared to most of their other tabs.

@@nonamenameless5495 I've always had ipads. I'm very interested in this tablet. Any idea how these tablets run after software support ends?

​@nonamenameless5495 for real?

@@yaahoo_movies Yes, till June 2027 for the P12, model TB370FU. Afaik, only Samsung beats it with support till 2028 for the Tab S9 FE/ S9 FE Plus in that category/price range when it comes to long term support. Depending on where your focus lies, esp the S9 FE could therefore be a strong contender coz there s been some deals for the 256GB/ 8GB Ram model recently.

How long are you going to keep a tablet? 20 years?

Hello from Spain! One question, Is this tablet good for seeing movies or HBO, etc ? thankyou.

@@juangarcia-qe9ww Oh, yes, it actually excels for watching video content. The picture is beautiful and the sound is awesome.

​@@PeteOlivaThankyou for you answer, I love android system, over the IOS, I think IOS its more appearance...) I love the good cinema , and the high. resolution of this tablet I think its nice Saludos desde España .

Dude, anything is better than apple.

Yeah that's not a bad comparison. You're basically paying $80 for that OLED screen. The duet will have more updates because Chrome OS has more updates. It will have a little more versatility between operating systems, I think the P12 will have a better resolution, and it's going to be a little bit cheaper, and run Android, and running Android by itself without Chrome OS has some perks too. Think it depends on what people are looking at. I've got a couple plans, a few plans even over the next few weeks. But I'll keep this in mind

I see it differently in the US. Not only are their bundles... But Samsung charges over $100 for every accessory, their book cover keyboard is always around $200 vs $100 for Lenovo's. Compared to Samsung it seems decent. But I get international markets can be different

FE is better. FE+ is the same size and better. BUT both FE models cost more. And the FE Plus costs like $150 more, maybe $200 more (when on sale). So if you really want a larger tablet, it really is between the FE Plus and the P12 Plus. The P12 Plus is a better value. The FE Plus is faster. And a little better overall

@@AndroidDigest got s9fe+ at cheaper price.. glad that i got this. The only drawback is i have to pay extra for the adapter where as lenovo comes with its own adapter.

It will probably end up being a great value tablet

Well S9 FE + is better. Better all around . But EVEN on sale it's around $450 or $500. The P12 is on sale now for $300 with a keyboard. It's not better but it's a better value. But I'd get what you will enjoy and just wait for the right sale

@@AndroidDigest Thanks man! I'll wait another 5 days and see what happens. Im slightly concerned that p12 only gets 2 android updates being as it comes with 13 and 14 is already available. Essentially robbing buyers of 1 (50% of total) update.

Samsung all the way dude! The samsung software goodies included on One UI and guaranteed updates make up for the difference, no doubt. You won't regret it. Dig a little bit yourself, you'll be blown out of the water

For a 12 inch tablet it is a tough sell not being able to have a full browser with extension capability. If it ran ChromeOS this would be stellar. For those comparing this to the Samsung S9 FE+ it really ones down to if you are going to be using Dex. Even dex mode on the tablet itself it worth it if you will use that. Having said as much still not as capable as ChromeOS as far as extensions go. For the price I still think the Lenovo is a bargain as the title says, but what you can find on the used market it is questionable. That is always the case however and I understand there are some people that will never buy used it be capable of adequate hunting to find those extraordinary deals.

Ended up getting the fe+ for under $400 today prime day deal

Well every piece of tech costs more. Just how it is. So I guess you have to compare it to other tech to see if it is a good value. Find the right tablets that go on sale there.

@@AndroidDigest ditched the idea of tablets, bought myself a 2nd hand Dell laptop and I will put linux on it; upgraded the memory to 32Gb & bought a brand new battery ... like new, does more and $389. But I did appreciate the review, very thorough

On youtube you can stream at both 1440p and 2160p

@@syedbakhtawarbilal9498 Thanks for confirming :)

I just bought Lenovo P12 for university as well and im loving it! The battery is great, the screen is a bit bigger than the Redmi Pad Pro and Lenovo comes with the pen so its a plus for me. However, check comparison videos so you can make your decision more wisely :) hope this helps!

Bro is it lagging or bugs there something Need your answer as am planning to get for uni How's notes taking experience​@@nakayshio3144

​@@nakayshio3144Have you tried any game yet?

The P12, at least in the US, will be a little worse vs the redmi pad pro, at least when we are talking about raw specs. The US version of the P12 has a 60hz display, and it has a slower processor by a little bit vs the redmi. But I know the P12 has been coming with a pen in the US. And price matters. So I'm not sure what prices you are seeing, but the P12 is still great, but the Redmi beats it out by a bit on the hardware.

I think so

@@KG-kq9tk it works ,, I own this now

Yep. Every device has a place. Depends on what you need

It's in Chinese only.

@@thomasgood3472 It is available in English and is available in the Ali Express store and its price is $180

I would absolutely recommend the Xiaoxin Pad 12.7 over this P12 especially considering the fact that you can get it for $200 USD on sale and even less than that with Aliexpress coupons/Coins. The 144hz screen feels great and once you get google playstore up and running, the experience is really flawless. I've noticed that reviews of the p12 show it suffering from serious micro stuttering which is miles less apparent on the Xiaoxin. No regrets here, the quality is great for the price.

@@circle5655 6GB of RAM only.

Yeah, that's going to be nice I'm sure!

The S9 is significantly faster, by a large margin. And the screen is better with amoled. The only plus to getting the P12 is the size. I'd argue the S9 FE Plus is a better option if you want something larger, but even then the S9 will be better overall, than the S9 FE Plus. If we are talking best tablet overall: Tab S9, S9 Ultra, S9 Plus (best, but depends on what size you prefer, and price) Tab S8 Ultra Tab S9 FE Plus/Tab S9 FE Tab P12 Galaxy Tab S6 Lite 2024 Tab A9+ Tab M11 Now just because I have a list as far as what's best, remember that you often pay for screen size. Even then, the S9 FE Plus and S8 Ultra are both better. The P12 is for someone who really wants that screen size but they want to pay less than $300. The S9 FE Plus, S8 Ultra, and S9 Ultra, S9 Plus, all of those will cost over $300, normally $450 or higher. But if you have the money, I'd buy the S9 or one of these other tablets, the P12 is great, but for those who again need that screen size at a cheaper price. And you compromise performance when you do that.

Glad you enjoyed it

Personally I think it would be great for that. Great screen and speakers. A large screen too. Not amoled. But it's close and looks good

Thanks! Glad you were able to catch it a few hours before it released!

It's a pretty monstrous battery. I would definitely say you should get more than 5 hours. I was getting closer to seven or eight hours depending on what I was doing

That's a good question, don't have it on me to test, I would think it could handle it okay because this pen does have specific features for the tablet, but haven't tested, and it may depend on the app.

It worked okay with palm rejection in one note, I will say that.

FE Plus is better. P12 is a better value. I'd go with the FE Plus if you can afford it.

I haven't but don't see why it would be an issue

@@AndroidDigest when I did it with two sd cards, they both broke down.

400 nits. A little dim but not terrible

Some people can't wait that long though. Charging it over night solves that "major weakness". Performance will probably be just fine for note taking and media consumption also.

​@@fxfxrkiagreed... Looking to buy in the next few weeks 😢

All the best to you!​@@doobiedouglas

Yeah I don't blame you

Oddly enough the Pro version of the P12 was released in 2021. Lenovo kept releasing devices like the P11. Then the P11 Pro. Then Gen 2. And they kept the P11 name. To my understanding this is a late addition to the game. But released about a year ago. I wouldn't recommend the Pro version since it's older and the updates aren't going to be coming

Yes. I got Android 14. They are supposed to get two big os updates so 15 is coming

That would be great to have those android updates ​@@AndroidDigest

Version 15 is out.

Well yeah. China typically has cheaper prices on tech

It worked okay with palm rejection in one note, I will say that. So yes it does have some palm rejection.

Lol I was a Red Sox fan most of my life. But I live close enough to STL that I realized I had to switch. I'm not a lifelong fan. I'm just trying to be a better Missouri guy

@@AndroidDigest all good I live in Chicago so I'm a Cubs fan

I get your perspective. I think it's a massive difference in price and screen size. Not everyone has that money. I personally don't think it will die in two years. But I get the perspective

Yeah it's pretty good overall

I would say it's great for that.

It's extremely close. It is a better resolution. I'd say the quality is subjective

The translation here says that the tablet is getting stuck, are you saying that it's freezing sometimes? I know it is a little bit slower than the tab s9

Lol if you are referring to my fingers, yes they bend a little crazy.

I do actually

People do😂😂😂

It plays a role. A big screen, nice speakers, it helps to provide a good viewing experience. But yeah there are other factors that could be more important.

They do tend to be a better value in most cases
