In case you like drawing or designing, you recognize that simply not any pill does the job. In case you’re on the lookout for one thing that matches the invoice and you do not thoughts splurging, Lenovo’s latest vary of tablets would possibly simply be what you’ve got been on the lookout for.

Lenovo has simply introduced a pair of recent tablets, the Lenovo Yoga Tab and the Concept Tab Plus. The primary protagonist right here is the Yoga Tab. It options an 11.1-inch, 3.2K PureSight Professional show with a 144Hz refresh charge and a peak brightness of 800 nits. The pill is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, which implies that is most likely simply as highly effective, if no more highly effective, than your telephone. However its foremost power is arguably not that. The Yoga Tab will be paired with the non-obligatory Lenovo Tab Pen Professional, which presents 8192 ranges of stress sensitivity and haptic suggestions, making it fairly good for drawing, jotting down stuff, and principally any artistic utility. The pen works with AI-powered software program corresponding to Lenovo Sensible Seize for exact object choice and Sketch-to-Picture for turning tough drawings into digital artwork.

In fact, it isn’t a 2025 launch with out AI fluff. At the very least a few of it’s helpful—there’s AI SuperRes for upscaling picture decision and Lenovo Sensible AI Enter for producing and refining textual content. The pill additionally consists of Lenovo AI Reside Transcript, which might create real-time transcriptions and summaries from voice enter. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 has an NPU, so these options are supposed to benefit from that.

The Yoga Tab has an all-metal unibody development and a silicon-carbon battery that Lenovo claims can present as much as 12 hours of YouTube streaming. The pill weighs 458 grams and comes preloaded with the Adobe Inventive Suite and a subscription to Perplexity Professional.

Alongside the Yoga Tab, Lenovo additionally launched the Concept Tab Plus. It is much less geared in the direction of artistic functions and extra in the direction of on a regular basis use. It is also greater, however packs much less horsepower. The Concept Tab Plus has a 12.1-inch, 2.5K show with a 96% DCI-P3 shade gamut and 800 nits of brightness. It’s powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6400 SoC, which is not precisely the perfect factor on the market, however it would actually no less than get the job carried out. The pill is supplied with a ten,200 mAh battery, which Lenovo states can ship as much as 13 hours of video playback.

One factor I am nervous about is updates. These clearly have Android, however Lenovo just isn’t identified for being too constant when it comes with Android software program updates and long-term assist. At finest, these tablets will get two years of Android updates like different Lenovo/Motorola {hardware}, which isn’t nice.

The Yoga Tab will turn out to be out there this month for $550, whereas the Concept Tab Plus can be less expensive at $270—the latter can be out there subsequent month.
