Look
P11 Pro: fingerprint scanner and dual cameras
The aluminium casing of the Lenovo Tab P11 Pro feels sturdy. The 11.5-inch device is on the large side for a tablet, but it's comfortable to hold without feeling heavy. The 5-megapixel wide-angle lens is a good addition to the 13-megapixel main camera, but it's not as good as the quality of the average smartphone camera. In addition, the Tab P11 Pro has a USB-C port, 4 powerful speakers, and a connector for the docking station or keyboard cover. The fingerprint scanner is incorporated into the on/off button of the tablet.
P11: smaller and one camera
The Lenovo Tab P11 looks the same as the Tab P11 Pro. The main differences are the camera and the screen. Unlike its big brother, the P11 only has a 13-megapixel camera and no wide-angle lens. Despite the fact that the 11-inch screen is slightly smaller than that of the P11 Pro, the screen is still large enough for comfortable use. It has the same buttons and connectors as the P11 Pro. The only difference is the function of the on/off button, since the Lenovo Tab P11 doesn't have a fingerprint scanner.
Screen
P11 Pro: 11.2-inch OLED screen
The main difference between the two tablets is the screen quality. This becomes clear as soon as you turn on the tablets. The 11.2-inch OLED screen of the Lenovo P11 Pro is bright and sharp. The OLED technology provides a wider viewing angle, stronger contrast, and deeper black levels than IPS LCD screens. This makes the P11 Pro a good choice for graphic design tasks, enthusiastic gamers, and movie lovers. Lenovo is really challenging other brands with the P11 Pro. The only downside is the low 60Hz refresh rate, which makes animations look less smooth compared to other high-end tablets.
P11: 11-inch IPS LCD screen
The 11-inch screen of the Lenovo Tab P11 is less sharp and slightly smaller than that of the P11 Pro. This difference is especially noticeable when you see the tablets next to each other. That being said, the screen quality is still very good for a mid-range tablet. At the moment, there are few tablets with a comparable screen quality in this price range. That makes the Tab P11 an excellent choice for everyday use.
Speed and storage
P11 Pro: suitable for demanding apps and games

P11: suitable for everyday use
The Snapdragon 662 Octa-Core processor in the Lenovo Tab P11 is a good processor for a mid-range tablet. The tablet performs everyday tasks without slowing down.

The model with 64GB storage has 4GB RAM. The 128GB version is available with 4 or 6GB RAM.
