Lenovo's Tab Plus Gen 2 arrives with a 12.1-inch 2.5K display, a nine-speaker JBL-engineered audio system, and an expected starting price of $399.99 in select global markets, making it one of the company's most feature-packed mainstream tablets this week. Lenovo says the model is aimed at people who move between streaming, reading, and light multitasking, which gives the launch a clearer consumer angle than a generic refresh.Morningstar's republished Lenovo release
Why this tablet stands out in Lenovo's lineup
The Tab Plus Gen 2 is built around entertainment and media use rather than pure productivity. Lenovo says the tablet runs on MediaTek's Dimensity 7400 processor, ships with up to 12GB of memory and 256GB of storage, and includes a 10,200mAh battery with support for up to 15 hours of YouTube streaming and 45W fast charging.Lenovo's product family page The company also highlights AI Live Transcript, Smarter Reader, and AI Notes as software features that push the device beyond basic video playback and into guided reading and note-taking.
That mix matters because Lenovo has been broadening its consumer portfolio around AI-enabled devices, but tablets still need a simple reason to exist next to phones and laptops. Here, the selling point is a large display, a heavier audio focus, and a bundled set of features that make shared media sessions and casual work less clunky than on a phone-sized screen.
Tab Plus Gen 2 also supports the Lenovo Tab Pen Plus, the Lenovo Wireless Keyboard, and a 68W USB-C wall charger sold separately, which gives buyers a path to turn the tablet into a more flexible home device without moving into full laptop pricing. Lenovo says it will be available soon in select global markets, so the launch is more about staged rollout than immediate shelf presence.
