Specifications of Xiaoxin Tablet 12.1

The Xiaoxin Tablet 12.1 is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6400 chipset, paired with 8 GB of RAM and a robust 10,200 mAh battery that supports 45 W charging. Its 12.1-inch display boasts a 2.5K resolution (2,560 x 1,600) with a 90 Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 800 nits, which can be adjusted using DC dimming.

According to Lenovo, this tablet comes in a metal casing that weighs around 530 g and has a thickness of 6.29 mm. At its launch, the Xiaoxin Tablet 12.1 is priced starting at CNY 1,199 (approximately $167) for the 128 GB storage variant. Alternatively, a model with double the storage is available for CNY 1,399 (about $195).

Features of Xiaoxin Tablet Pro GT

In contrast, the Xiaoxin Tablet Pro GT is equipped with much more powerful hardware, starting at CNY 1,799 (around $250) for the version with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. Lenovo has opted for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, similar to the latest Yoga Tab Plus (currently priced at $579 on Amazon), along with an 8,860 mAh silicon carbon battery that supports fast 68 W wired charging.

This advanced silicon carbon technology enables the Xiaoxin Tablet Pro GT to have a slim design of only 5.99 mm in thickness and a weight of 458 g. It features an 11.1-inch display with a 144 Hz refresh rate and a resolution of 3,200 x 2,000 pixels. However, it remains uncertain whether Lenovo will release these new tablets in global markets.
