Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2 Packs Nine Speakers and a 360° Kickstand

The company is betting on room‑filling audio to differentiate a $399.99 midrange tablet.

Overview

  • Lenovo announced the Tab Plus Gen 2 on Tuesday and highlighted a nine‑speaker array housed in a 22.7mm circular rear bump that doubles as a 360° fold‑out kickstand.
  • The tablet can be used as a standalone Bluetooth speaker and its JBL‑tuned system supports Dolby Atmos for spatial audio.
  • Lenovo upgraded core hardware with a MediaTek Dimensity 7400 processor, 6GB to 12GB of RAM, 128GB to 256GB of storage that is expandable via microSD to 2TB, a 12.1‑inch 120Hz 2.5K LCD, and a 10,200mAh battery.
  • The Tab Plus Gen 2 starts at $399.99, ships with Android 16, and will be available soon in select global markets with two years of Android OS updates and four years of security patches.
  • The design tradeoff for the audio focus is a much thicker rear bump than the prior model and a modest 8MP front camera paired with a 13MP rear camera, a choice that signals Lenovo’s move to prioritize sound and multifunction use over thinness.
