Landscape front camera positioning makes it convenient for video calls
Wi-Fi+ cellular 5G network option
Comes with stylus pen and folio keyboard
Cons
Slow 10W charging speeds

Lenovo has been at the forefront of PC and laptop industry and the brand has established itself as a strong player in the tablet market too. And its a wide audience segment Lenovo is catering to with its tablets range. Specifically, with the budget segment, Lenovo has been showing off its expertise and is frequently updating the catalogue as well. The Tab K11 Enhanced Edition is one of the newest members in the Tab K series that focuses on productivity and creativity aspects. At Rs. 26,999, the Tab K11 Enhanced Edition seems to be a well-rounded package specifically with the added folio keyboard and the stylus pen. But does it really justify its price tag? Its time to find out:
For the tech geeks, stay updated with the latest cutting-edge gadgets in the market, exclusive tech updates, gadget reviews, and more right on your phone’s screen. Join Giznext’s WhatsApp channel and receive the industry-first tech updates.
Lenovo has given a familiar design silhouette to the Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) as its other budget-oriented tablet models. It also has a robust metallic body construction complemented with a dual-tone shade. For refrence, you ca opt from Luna Grey and Seafoam Green shades where we recieved the former for review at Giznext.
A single camera lens is housed inside the rectangular camera island on the top left of the back panel (on the dark gray vertical frosted polycarbonate strip). Right next to the camera island (housing a 13MP primary lens) on the right spine, there are the volume adjusters.
The flat frame-lightweight design along with the full-metal chassis gives confidence to hold and use the tablet with single hand. But eventually, you’ll have to use both your hands for extensive and creative tasks considering the tablet’s big form factor. Bottom panel includes a USB Type-C port sandwiched in between the speaker grilles and the stylus pen slot (on the top right bottom corner).
The Tab K11 comes void of any physical fingerprint scanner, but it offers Face Unlock as added privacy besides the standard PIN and Password protection. Summing it up, the Tab K11 Enhanced Edition while sporting a conventional design is practical for daily usage with its slim, lightweight rugged profile.
Lenovo Tab K11 Enhanced Edition has a substantially large display panel that measures at 11-inches. It is a standard LCD panel as is the case with most of the budget segment tablet. Panel specs offered by the Tab K11 Enhanced Edition includes an FHD screen resolution of 1200 x 1920 pixels and a 90Hz refresh rate. The display has Widevine L1 certification but comes void of Dolby Vision and HDR compatibility.
While two of these crucial display aspects are missing, it doesn’t mean the panel quality is compromised. The colors produced by the Tab K11 Enhanced Edition’s screen are good. The clarity levels are also satisfactory despite it being the conventional LCD screen.
The Tab K11 Enhanced Edition’s display offers 400 nits peak brightness levels. While you won’t face any difficulties with the brightness levels indoors, you might struggle a bit to view content outdoors under direct/ harsh sunlight. That’s one of the few shortcomings with the screen here.
Lenovo Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) like most of the budget and mid-range tablet’s is equipped with a single rear and a single front camera setup. The sensors are also standard where the rear panel accommodates a 13MP lens with AF (Autofocus), while at the front there is an 8MP snapper with FF (Fixed Focus) and front flash.
Optics hardware with tablets aren’t as evolved as with smartphones. However, the imaging setup on all the tablets are suitable for basic usage. The same is the case with the Lenovo Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition), where the 13MP rear snapper is apt for capturing stills, scanning documents, and similar tasks. Overall clarity offered by the primary camera is decent.
That said, the selfie snapper upfront integrated in a landscape positioning is makes it convenient for video calling or conferencing. So if you need a device majorly for online conferences and don’t wish to invest heavily into a laptop, this tablet could serve the purpose well.
Lenovo Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) is powered by the Helio G88 chipset. This MediaTek processor has standard 4G network support and is powering a majority of low-end and entry-level Android devices. The Helio G series focuses on refining the gaming and overall performance experience which we found to be true to some extent with the Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition).
You get this tablet with 8GB LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB eMMC 5.1 storage space. Storage expansion to up to 1TB is also possible via an external microSD card. This means no storage crunch issues even if you store large sized files and documents on this tablet.
The Helio G88 chipset performs well when you throw basic tasks at it which can range from general web browsing to streaming videos on YouTube and OTT platforms. You wouldn’t notice any major lags or frame drops with the basic tasks mentioned above. However, we found the tablet struggling slightly when there is any extensive game or app launched.
The app launch isn’t instant; specifically if there are multiple apps opened in the background already. The same feedback is with gaming where lightweight titles don’t experience any lags, but on the other hand, extensive game play can feel jittery at times. That said, it still is potent as a daily driver if you use it for moderate apps and games.
Lenovo Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) Accessories (Stylus and Keyboard)
The Lenovo Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) ships with a stylus pen and a Folio keyboard out-of-the-box. These added accessories definitely adds worth to this product. The stylus pen does’t get magnetic charging feature rather it uses a single AAA battery to power up. The thicker pen design allows ideal grip for writing and sketching. There is also a Palm rejection feature which functions well with taking notes.
There are dedicated apps to use with stylus such as Nebo (converting handwritten texts) and MyScript calculator that allows working on handwritten notes and equations. There are additional pen tips included with the stylus pen that can be replaced and used in case the default tip stops functioning properly.
Another important accessory that the Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) ships with is the Folio keyboard. It latches on magnetically to the tablet via pogo pins. Keyboard’s functionality is good and you will find the keys nimble to press.
Backing up the Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) is a 2-cell 7040 mAh (Li-Ion) battery pack. The big battery module tucked inside the slim tablet body is decent with backup. It is capable of lasting an entire day with a single charge with extensive usage.
You won’t necessarily need an additional plug in until the next day. Expect the battery backup to extend to up to two days if you use it lightly with basic tasks such as browsing and online conferencing. Media playback and gaming if done extensive will drain the battery by the end of the day. This brings us to the charging speeds, the Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) comes with 10W charging support. It takes close to 4 hours to charge this tablet from 0- 100 percent.
Lenovo Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) Final Verdict: Worth Buying?
Lenovo Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition) is a well rounded package overall in the budget segment. It justifies its price tag with its robust build, vibrant screen, and the stylus pen/ folio keyboard accessories. This tablet is suitable for working professionals and students who need a daily use tablet for tasks such as online conferencing, taking notes, and media playback, etc. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that the Tab K11 (Enhanced Edition’s) added accessories is what gives it an edge over the standard version and the counterparts in this segment.
