The Lenovo IdeaTab Pro has a footprint of 291.18 x 189.1 mm with a slim 6.9 mm thickness and a weight of 620 g, giving it a relatively lean profile for a 12.7-inch tablet. A stylus is included in the box, though the device does not support pen tilt sensitivity. It lacks a detachable or backlit keyboard, and there is no water resistance rating or rugged build construction to speak of.
The IdeaTab Pro features a 12.7″ IPS LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 2944 x 1840 pixels at 273 ppi, paired with a 144Hz refresh rate for smooth on-screen motion. Typical brightness is rated at 400 nits, and the display supports HDR10, though HDR10+ and Dolby Vision are not supported. The screen does not use branded damage-resistant glass or sapphire glass, and it is not an e-paper panel.
The IdeaTab Pro is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8300 SoC, built on a 4nm process with an 8-core CPU running at up to 3.35 GHz across 8 threads, using big.LITTLE and HMP scheduling, and a TDP of 6W. It is paired with 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM running at 8533 MHz across 4 memory channels, offering a maximum bandwidth of 68.2 GB/s, with support for up to 24GB total memory. Internal storage stands at 256GB and can be expanded up to 1TB via the external memory slot. Graphics are handled by the Mali G615 MP6 GPU clocked at 1400 MHz, with support for DirectX 12 and OpenCL 2. The chipset supports 64-bit processing, NX bit, and TrustZone security, and the device ships with Android 14. Geekbench 6 scores are 1485 for single-core and 4610 for multi-core workloads, with L2 cache at 1MB and L3 cache at 4MB.
The IdeaTab Pro features a 13 MP rear camera built on a CMOS sensor, accompanied by an 8 MP front camera for video calls and self-portraits. The main camera supports touch autofocus, continuous autofocus during video recording, and a range of manual controls including ISO, focus, exposure, and white balance, though manual shutter speed is not available. A single LED flash is present on the rear, while the front camera has no flash of its own; the flash is a standard single-tone unit, with no dual-tone or RGB variants. Slow-motion video recording is supported, but HDR10 and Dolby Vision recording are not, and there is no optical image stabilization or optical zoom. In-camera panorama, 360-degree panorama, burst mode, and 3D capture are all absent from the feature set.
The IdeaTab Pro includes stereo speakers for built-in audio output, but does not have a 3.5 mm headphone jack or a built-in radio. On the wireless audio side, none of the advanced Bluetooth codec options are supported, meaning aptX, aptX HD, aptX Low Latency, aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless, and LDAC are all absent.
The IdeaTab Pro houses a 10200 mAh rechargeable battery with a rated battery life of approximately 8.33 hours, and it supports fast charging for quicker top-ups. A battery level indicator is present, while wireless charging is not supported and the battery is not user-removable.
The IdeaTab Pro supports Wi-Fi 4 through Wi-Fi 6E along with Bluetooth 5.3, offering download speeds up to 7900 Mbits/s and upload speeds up to 4200 Mbits/s, though it has no cellular module, 5G support, or Ethernet connectivity. Wired connectivity is handled via a USB Type-C port running USB 3.2, while NFC, HDMI output, and an infrared sensor are absent. On the sensors side, the tablet includes a gyroscope, accelerometer, compass, and GPS for position tracking, but lacks a barometer, iris scanner, fingerprint scanner, 3D facial recognition, and Galileo satellite support. The software feature set is broad, covering split-screen multitasking, Picture-in-Picture, dark mode, dynamic theming, theme customization, widgets, media picker, full-page screenshots, customizable notifications, clipboard warnings, extra dim mode, battery health check, child lock, multi-user support, on-device machine learning, offline voice recognition, voice commands, sharing intents, and live text selection.
