In the ongoing quest for the perfect budget tablet, Lenovo seems to have a contender that might catch your eye. It's the new Tab Plus , an 11,5-inch tablet that immediately grabs your attention with its powerful JBL sound system and a stunning 2K resolution display . The best part? It's priced under €279.
A tablet to see and listen
Tablets have become devices for viewing multimedia content. The evolution of mobile phones with such powerful processors and increasingly larger screens has turned them into devices that are suitable for everything, however, tablets continue to be the option to enjoy multimedia content in a more comfortable way and separate from a computer or one TV.
With that in mind, it's interesting to see how Lenovo has designed its Tab Plus, a compact device that includes eight JBL speakers with Dolby Atmos for optimal sound wherever you go. And the sound it delivers is quite remarkable, with powerful bass.
The screen also deserves special mention. With a resolution of 2.000 x 1.200 pixels and IPS technology, it looks remarkably good. Its 400 nits of brightness make it perfect for watching movies, and the overall definition is very impressive.
Practically for whatever you want
The device is powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 processor , which, while not the most powerful on the market, performs very well, handling casual gaming and 4K content. The choice of this processor is one of the key factors in its price.
The version we tested has 128 GB of storage , more than enough for all kinds of tasks, and with plenty of space to install games and download music and videos. This version is priced at €279, while the 256 GB version goes for €308, which is also quite reasonable.
Its battery also features a fast-charging system that allows it to reach 100% capacity in just 90 minutes . Interestingly, while the tablet is charging, you can activate the digital photo frame mode, which, along with the integrated stand, lets you enjoy a slideshow while the device is charging.
Designed to consume videos
The style of this tablet is very clear, and can be quickly checked with the base that is on its back. This stand has a very resistant hinge system that allows the screen to be placed at practically any angle in a fan of almost 90 degrees. With the help of this stand, it is easy to use the device as a screen to work with a Bluetooth keyboard, watch movies comfortably, and even make notebook-like tracings with a stylus.
A price to take into account
With a price of 279 euros, this model with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage seems like a spectacular option to take into account, since the sound quality and image quality it offers are not usually found in a device in this price range.
