Lenovo Yoga Tab Series 11.1" ZAG60266US Luna Grey

The 98th percentile, 144Hz display is the main event here, making everything look gorgeous. Just know that the GPU is in the 2nd percentile, so this is strictly a media and productivity tablet, not a gaming one. Shop around, because the $410 price spread means a good deal turns this into a great buy.

The 6-core Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 handles Android 15 without breaking a sweat for everyday stuff. App launches are instant, and multitasking with 12GB of RAM feels fluid. Our CPU benchmarks put it in the 65th percentile, which is solidly middle-of-the-pack. It's not going to set any speed records, but it won't feel slow for browsing, streaming, or sketching with the Lenovo Tab Pen Pro. The real bottleneck is the integrated GPU. Its score is a disappointing 2nd percentile, meaning it lags behind almost every other modern tablet we've tested. Forget demanding 3D games or heavy video editing, this chip just isn't built for it.

Where the Yoga Tab shines is in pushing pixels. The 3200x2000 resolution at 144Hz is a standout, making everything from scrolling through articles to watching high-res video look fantastic. The UFS 4.0 storage is quick, hitting the 83rd percentile for read/write speeds, so loading large files or apps is snappy. Connectivity is also a strong point with Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, ranking well above average. This is a tablet that excels at consuming content and light productivity, but its performance profile is lopsided, all brains and no graphical brawn.

Stacked against the Apple iPad Pro M5, the Lenovo's GPU deficit is a chasm. The iPad's M5 chip is in a completely different universe for graphics and raw CPU power, making it the clear choice for creative pros and gamers. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra also outmuscles the Yoga Tab with a more powerful, full-fat processor and a superior GPU, plus it has a much larger and more vibrant AMOLED screen. Where the Lenovo fights back is with its lightweight design and potentially much lower street price. The Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro is a closer competitor on price and also offers a great display, but the Lenovo's 12GB of RAM and Wi-Fi 7 give it an edge for future-proofing. If your workflow doesn't touch 3D rendering or gaming, the Yoga Tab's screen and RAM combo is a compelling differentiator against these pricier rivals.

Pricing for this Yoga Tab is all over the map, with a $410 gap between the lowest and highest vendor listings. That makes the value proposition entirely dependent on where you buy it. At the lower end of that spectrum, you're getting a top-tier screen, plenty of RAM, and a premium build for a very competitive price. At the high end, you're dangerously close to the cost of an iPad Pro M5 or Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, both of which will run circles around this Lenovo in GPU tasks and offer more polished overall experiences. If you can snag it at a discount, the price-to-performance ratio for media and productivity is strong. Pay full freight, and the weak graphics chip becomes a much harder pill to swallow.

The Lenovo Yoga Tab's screen is the real star here, landing in the 98th percentile of all tablets we've tested. That 11.1-inch 3200x2000 LCD running at 144Hz hits 800 nits, so it's bright, sharp, and smooth. You're getting 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB of UFS storage, which puts it well above average for an Android slate. But the chip choice is a bit of a head-scratcher. It's a cut-down, 6-core Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, and while it's snappy for daily tasks, the GPU performance is one of the worst we've seen, landing in the 2nd percentile. This isn't a gaming tablet, and that's fine, but you need to know what you're signing up for.

At 458g, it's surprisingly light for a tablet with a built-in kickstand and an 8860mAh battery that ranks in the 86th percentile. Lenovo is pushing this as an AI-enhanced creator tool with Wi-Fi 7 and a keyboard connector. For reading, note-taking, and media consumption, the hardware mostly delivers. Just don't expect it to hang with an iPad Pro M5 or Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra in raw graphics muscle. The value proposition gets interesting when you see the price swings across vendors, with a $410 spread between the lowest and highest listings.

Gamers and video editors should look elsewhere without a second thought. The GPU performance is a major weak spot, ranking near the absolute bottom of our database. If you plan to do any 3D modeling, play demanding games like Genshin Impact at high settings, or edit 4K video, this tablet will frustrate you. You'd be much better served by an iPad Pro M5 or a Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, both of which offer dramatically better graphics performance. This is also a tough sell for anyone who needs guaranteed, long-term software support, as Lenovo's update track record is a common question mark among buyers.

The Lenovo Yoga Tab is a tablet with a very specific, and very good, mission: be a fantastic portable screen for reading, streaming, and note-taking. It absolutely nails that. The display is best-in-class, the battery life is impressive, and the 12GB of RAM keeps things humming. But the decision to use a 6-core chip with a severely underpowered GPU makes it a non-starter for anyone who wants to game or do any graphics-heavy work. If you find it priced closer to $460, it's a brilliant media machine. If you're looking at the $870 end, just buy an iPad or a Galaxy Tab and get a much more capable all-rounder.
