I got the P11 pro Gen 2 for a good deal a few years ago. The 2 years of major updates really soured buying a Lenovo ever again for me.

Does anyone know about the software update policy, if separate from the security update policy? How long can we expect this to receive new OS versions?

MediaTek Dimensity 6400 is a buzz killer. I would honestly buy Snapdragon 865 over this mediocre. Only good thing is that it has 8 gigs of RAM in RAMageddon era

2 years of updates, wow. I guess if you're okay with rooting after the 2 years this might be a decent cheap tablet.

It is the MediaTek 6400... this is identical to the G99 in multi core and 10% faster in single and GPU (which is not much) I have been saying you should buy a G99 for about five years. The point I am making is this is just too slow. Wait until you see a better deal for a better model. This tablet will only last a few years IMHO (and then no more updates and it will struggle with newer software).

We got the Idea Tab PRO about 9 months ago for about $235... that was a game changer. Now they no longer have the idea tab pro but have the idea tab pro 2 and it is too expensive right now.

worth the exta money!!!! While it is no Idea Tab Pro which has a higher end CPU/GPU. I would classify THIS deal as LOWEND, the Tab Plus Gen 2 as MIDEND and the Idea Tab Pro as very high midend or low high end.

I also had one but right after the last update mine doesn't power on anymore. Tempted to buy another Lenovo tablet but every time I remember that one it stops me from buying.

You have to search for your specific device, but here is a full list:

https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/...s/ht501098

This device will only get upgraded to Android 17, although security updates should supposedly continue until September 2029.

I just got the idea Tab Pro gen 2 for $366 after tax. The SD 8s gen 4 isnt the greatest but for the price it really gets all the job done. Can run basically all the emulators without issue.

Not true. I have this tablet and can connect to an external display using a USB-C to HDMI cable (as well as casting).

Damn, that's wild. Lenovo.com says explicitly: "the USB-C port on the Idea Tab Plus (ZAG7) tablet does not support video output and therefore cannot be used to connect an external monitor."

Which makes sense as the spec sheet on the linked best buy website lists the ports as "1 x USB-C 2.0." USB 2.0 doesn't support DP-alt.

I stand corrected. I have the pro version, not the plus.
