When it comes to Android tablets nowadays, it's hard to find a company that does a better job balancing value and affordability than Lenovo. The brand's gargantuan Tab P12 mid-ranger, for instance, which was officially unveiled earlier this year, is pretty much unrivaled at a US list price of $379.99 with a whopping 256 gigs of internal storage space and a bunch of other surprisingly great specs and features.
This Android 13-running 12.7-incher remarkably includes a Lenovo Tab Pen Plus in its regular price, and believe it or not, that's somehow down to $279.99 right now at Best Buy with nationwide shipping before Christmas guaranteed.
What you're looking at here is a completely unprecedented special offer unlikely to last very long, so you should probably hurry if you want to get one of the best budget tablets around at its highest ever discount, especially if you also happen to care about the aforementioned pre-December 25 delivery aspect.
The Lenovo Tab P12 can be an extraordinary gift for anyone who likes to get a bit of work done and/or stay entertained while traveling without carrying around a bulky conventional laptop. Despite that extensive screen real estate, this is an astoundingly light and thin device, at 615 grams and 6.9mm respectively, rivaling the best of the best iPads out there on both counts and thus looking like an ideal low-cost alternative from an overall portability standpoint.
Of course, you can't hope to receive laptop-grade power at only 280 bucks, but by mid-range Android tablet standards, this thing scores good marks in that department as well with an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 7050 processor under the hood. Then you have a more than respectable 8GB RAM count, a beautiful LTPS screen capable of playing content in vibrant 3K resolution, a remarkably large 10,200mAh battery (especially considering the weight and thickness figures), four decidedly premium-sounding JBL speakers with Dolby Atmos enhancements, and oh, did we mention the 256GB storage space and bundled stylus?
We already did? Well, those kinds of achievements in the sub-$300 tablet market segment are so rare and impressive that they clearly deserve repeating (in addition to all the praise in the world).
