Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2 Design, Specifications (Expected)

Tipster Evan Blass (@evleaks) got his hands on the purported renders of the Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2, which he published in a series of posts on X. The rumoured device appears in a gray shade. It is shown to sport relatively thick bezels around the display. A centred selfie camera also appears on the top of the display, hidden inside the bezels. The images also suggest that the Lenovo tablet has a single rear camera on the back.

On top of this, the Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2 is shown to be equipped with a large circular speaker grille on the back with the Sound by JBL branding. It might also sport a built-in kickstand surrounding the speaker, which might allow users to use the tablet in vertical and horizontal orientations. In the top-left corner, a power button and volume controls appear. On the right side of the tablet, four cutouts appear, which could house an additional speaker unit. It is also shown to have a USB Type-C port. It might also ship with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.

The purported Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2 might also ship with a dual microphone setup and a SIM tray on the left side. The tablet will reportedly also launch with support for a stylus. The company might also release a dedicated carry case for the tablet, with a detachable sling rope. However, the tech firm has yet to confirm these details. Hence, one should read this with a pinch of salt.

It is expected to succeed the Lenovo Tab Plus, which was launched in select global markets at a starting price of EUR 279 (roughly Rs. 25,000) for the base 8GB + 128GB RAM and storage configuration. The tablet is offered in a single Luna Grey colourway. To recap, the Lenovo Tab Plus sports an 11.5-inch 2K (2,000x1,200 pixels) LCD screen, offering up to a 90Hz refresh rate and 400 nits of peak brightness. It is powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 chipset.
