In terms of performance, this should be a step above the cheapo Walmart(Onn)/Amazon-branded tablets and a step below the base iPad or the Samsung S10 Lite series. My unc has one and it's fine for watching conspiracies videos on YouTube and browsing the web. Watching a picture-in-picture video while simultaneously rambling on the facebooks is also fine.
Closest competitor to this like another comment alluded to is the Samsung A11+. The A11+ has a better CPU and longer software support while the Lenovo has slightly more RAM and a better display. If someone has a budget of sub $200 and just wants to do media consumption than this Lenovo Idea Tab should be fine.
Community Reviews
The Lenovo Idea Tab is a budget 11 inch Android tablet that stands out for its 2.5K screen, included pen, and solid media use. It handles streaming, web browsing, reading, YouTube, and light gaming well, with Balatro, Roblox, Minecraft, GTA San Andreas, and even some retro emulation getting positive real world use. The headphone jack, USB C fast charging, and 8GB RAM make it feel more capable than cheap entry tablets. The main drawback is the MediaTek 6300, which keeps it from feeling fast for heavier multitasking or demanding apps, and the 480 gram weight may matter if you want something very light. A practical pick for everyday entertainment and casual use.
Common Questions (5)
Yes, the tablet includes a Lenovo Pen/Tab Pen Plus in the box, and buyers mention using it right away for notes and general use. The box contents listed in comments include the charging cable, 45W adapter, guides, and microSD tray pin, with the pen called out separately on Lenovo's product page.
It is fine for YouTube, streaming, browsing, email, and light gaming, but it is still a low-end MediaTek tablet and can feel sluggish with heavier web pages or too many apps open. For basic media use under $200 it should be adequate, but it is not a productivity or multitasking machine.
It can handle lighter games and emulation well, including Roblox, Fortnite, Minecraft, GTA: San Andreas, Balatro, and retro systems like Dreamcast, N64, PSX, and PSP. Heavier GameCube, PS2, or Switch emulation will be limited and may struggle.
At around $150, it is considered a strong value for an 8GB RAM tablet with a 2.5K screen, especially for media consumption and light use. The main tradeoff is that the CPU is still entry-level, so paying more gets noticeably better performance in the Pro model or other higher-end tablets.
The regular Idea Tab is listed at about 480g / 1.06 lb, which is comparable to other 10-11 inch tablets. That weight is still noticeable for handheld use, but it is not unusually heavy for this size class.

Honestly, the processor on the base A16 iPad is significantly faster than this.
Also keep in mind this is not the pro version when researching this tablet.

At this point I'm not sure if it's the ram or the processor to blame but the snapiness of those A series tablets were slow af.
I'm talking like switching between apps or closing all the apps. This also with disabling all the animations in the secret dev option menus. That's when I realize those animations were there to hide how slow the tablet was lol.
