Or soundbars on TVs or computers.

Lenovo has some of the most interesting mid-range and entry-level tablets on the Android platform, like the new Tab M11 under $200, but here it’s changing the pace with a model that’s more than just a tablet. Yippee portable audio device with eight speakers from JBL (including four bass and four treble) and compatibility with Dolby Atmos.

Its 26 watts of power is excellent for a tablet and it also supports 24-bit 96 kHz high-resolution audio when using headphones. In addition to playing audio from the tablet itself, the Lenovo Tab Plus can be used as a Bluetooth speaker to listen to audio from other devices. As with audio, size matters to accommodate the speakers, the tablet is a bit thicker than usual at the bottom of the chassis. Many users will find this a good thing.
