If you're looking for the best Android tablet running the latest OS version and packing one of the fastest processors available right now, you might be surprised to learn that my top recommendation today is the Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 rather than a member of the typically more popular Galaxy Tab family.

That's because Samsung has yet to unveil the Tab S12+ and Tab S12 Ultra... for some reason, but even more importantly, because Lenovo's newest 13-inch powerhouse caught us all off guard by debuting with Android 17 out the box a couple of weeks ago, and now its price point is even more surprisingly marked down by a substantial $230.

If you'd still rather own a Samsung tablet, the smaller Galaxy Tab S11 high-ender is on sale at a pretty cool discount of its own.

$839 ⁹⁸

$1069 ⁹⁸

$230 off (21%)

With a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor under the hood, as well as 12GB RAM, 256GB internal storage space, a 12,700mAh battery capable of charging at up to 68W rates, six Harman Kardon speakers, and a 13-inch 4K display, the Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 might be the best high-end Android tablet you can buy right now, especially at its first surprisingly large discount with wireless earbuds, a stylus, and a keyboard also included.

To maximize your Yoga Tab Plus (Gen 2) savings, you need to opt for a special bundle that includes the Lenovo TWS Earbuds Yoga PC Edition in a Cosmic Blue colorway in addition to the jumbo-sized slate itself. This combo would normally cost $1,069.98, but for a presumably limited time only, you can get it for $839.98 and thus spend 160 bucks less than on the high-end tablet alone.

Keep in mind that the Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 actually doesn't ship solo at any price, so your 840 bucks will buy you not just an excellent Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra alternative and a sleek pair of wireless earbuds but a Lenovo Tab Pen Pro 2 and an All-in-One Clamshell Keyboard as well.

That's a lot of value at a very competitive price, and I haven't even touched on the tablet's hefty 12GB RAM count, respectable 256 gigs of internal storage space, beautiful PureSight Pro display with 3840 x 2560 pixel (aka 4K) resolution and 144Hz refresh rate technology, massive 12,700mAh battery, and six powerful Harman Kardon speakers.

Of course, the key selling points remain the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset (which is better than the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 Plus SoC inside the costlier aforementioned Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra), and most unusually for Lenovo, the seven guaranteed OS upgrades following the Android 17 offered at launch.

And with Samsung struggling to deliver Android 17-based One UI 9 goodies to a single high-end handset family (let alone the Tab S11 duo), that becomes an even more compelling strength for the deeply discounted Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2.

$90

$210

$120 off (57%)

Mint Mobile is now allowing you to get whichever plan you like for either three, six, or 12 months for just $15/mo. If you go for the six-month unlimited service, for instance, you'll now have to pay just $90 upfront instead of $210.
