Lenovo Idea Tab Plus 12.1-inch 2.5K Paper-Like Tablet + Pen
General Description
Read, study, create and unwind on the Lenovo Idea Tab Plus, an AI-enhanced Android tablet featuring a spacious 12.1-inch Paper-Like display and an included Lenovo digital pen.
The Matte Edition screen combines a sharp 2560 × 1600 resolution with an anti-glare, paper-like surface that reduces reflections and provides a more natural sensation when writing or drawing. With up to 800 nits of High Brightness Mode, a 96% DCI-P3 colour gamut and a smooth 90Hz refresh rate, the display is equally suited to digital note-taking, reading, creative work and entertainment.
Powered by the octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 6400 processor, 12GB of memory and 256GB of internal storage, the tablet provides responsive everyday performance for multitasking, streaming, web browsing and productivity applications. Storage can be expanded using a microSD card of up to 2TB.
The included Lenovo Tab Pen supports 4,096 pressure levels, tilt detection and palm rejection, allowing notes, sketches and annotations to feel more natural. Lenovo AI Notes, Google Gemini and Circle to Search provide additional tools for study, research and organisation.
A large 10,200mAh battery delivers up to approximately 13 hours of video streaming, while 45W rapid-charging support helps reduce downtime. Four speakers optimised with Dolby Atmos complete the experience with clear, spacious audio.

Paper-Like Matte Display
The Paper-Like display is designed to reduce distracting glare and create a more comfortable surface for reading and handwriting. Unlike a glossy tablet screen, its matte finish diffuses reflected light, helping content remain easier to view in bright rooms.
The textured surface also provides additional resistance between the pen tip and display, creating a writing sensation closer to paper than smooth glass.
The screen features:
-
2560 × 1600 resolution
-
90Hz refresh rate
-
96% DCI-P3 colour coverage
-
Up to 800 nits in High Brightness Mode
-
Anti-glare and anti-fingerprint treatment
-
TÜV Rheinland Reflection Free certification
-
TÜV Rheinland Flicker Free certification
-
TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light hardware solution
A matte display may appear slightly less glossy or reflective than a conventional screen. This is an intentional characteristic of the Paper-Like design.
