78 out of 100 high confidence 38 reviews

The Lenovo Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 is widely praised for its vibrant 13-inch display, excellent audio, and snappy performance, making it a strong value for students and professionals. Users appreciate the pen responsiveness for note-taking and drawing, though many note the battery life is average at 5-6 hours and the device can run warm. A recurring frustration is the lack of available accessories like the folio keyboard and protective cases, as well as the removal of the fingerprint scanner from the previous generation. Overall, it's seen as a capable Android tablet with a few software and hardware compromises.

Pros
  • Vibrant 13-inch display
  • Excellent audio quality
  • Snappy performance
  • Good pen responsiveness
  • Great value for money
Cons
  • Average battery life (5-6 hours)
  • Device runs warm
  • No fingerprint scanner
  • Lack of available accessories
  • Software bugs and UI issues
