Lenovo Announces a Bunch of Android Tablets, One of Which Doubles as a Portable Monitor at MWC 2021

Lenovo has unveiled a slew of new Android tablets that cover nearly the entire price spectrum for tablet buyers. The Lenovo Tab M7, which sits at the very bottom of the entry range, is a budget tablet aimed at basic infotainment consumers looking for a no-frills, basic, large-screen Android device. The Lenovo Yoga Tab 13, on the other hand, is aimed squarely at Apple’s iPad territory, with a premium overall design, flagship specifications, and a massive 13-inch display to boot. The tablets were announced at MWC 2021, and it will be interesting to see if they are brought to India anytime soon.

Prices for the Lenovo Yoga Tab 13 and other tablets

The Lenovo Tab M7 is the most affordable of the bunch, costing only EUR 119 (approximately Rs 10,500). While the Tab M8 has yet to be given a price, it is expected to be similarly affordable. The Tab P11 Plus, on the other hand, costs EUR 299, or roughly Rs 26,500. The Yoga Tab 11 and Yoga Tab 13 are the two more expensive tablets, costing EUR 349 and EUR 799. This brings their total cost to around Rs 31,000 and Rs 71,000, respectively.

Specifications for the Lenovo Yoga Tab 11 and 13

The Yoga Tab 11 is the flagship tablet, with a MediaTek Helio G90T processor, 4 or 8GB of RAM, and 128 or 256GB of storage. It has an 11-inch display with a screen resolution of 2000 x 1200 pixels, a 60Hz refresh rate, and Dolby Vision certification, as well as a thick barrel at one end of a uniformly slim body. The tablet has a fabric back panel and weighs 650 grams. A 7,700mAh battery, an 8MP rear camera, Android 11, four JBL speakers with Dolby Atmos certification, and both Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity options are among the other features.

The Yoga Tab 13, on the other hand, has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. The 13-inch display has a screen resolution of 2160 x 1350 pixels, Dolby Vision support, and the same quad JBL speakers as its smaller siblings. Surprisingly, despite having a more premium Alcantara back panel instead of fabric and a larger 10,000mAh battery instead of a 7,700mAh battery, it does not have a rear camera.
