We’re going to compare two tablets, the Galaxy Tab S7 FE and the Lenovo Tab P11 pro, so which is better? Let’s get started.
The Lenovo Tab P11 Pro LTE plays with the big players but lags in performance. The AMOLED display has excellent colors, but has weaknesses in displaying text. The successful equipment impresses four great speakers and 128 GB of internal storage space. The tablet gets most of the points in the test with a great battery, which combines long runtime and short charging times. The price-performance ratio is okay, but some of the competition offers more. See detailed review here.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE made a good impression. Still, it can’t quite keep up with the first Galaxy Tab S7 because Samsung has slimmed down the fan edition a lot. Nevertheless, a solid mid-range processor works in the tablet, which delivers decent performance. We like the colourful display very much and the equipment – apart from a few gaps – is overall good. The Galaxy Tab S7 FE collects additional plus points with its long battery life of over 14 hours. The design is excellent, but unfortunately, the tablet is heavyweight. See detailed review here.
The first thing you’re going to look at is the cost of each tablet. The Tab P11 Pro will be about 500 to 600 but is on sale quite a bit here; recently, galaxy tab s7 FE started at $529, and it’s going to go up to $670 depending on which model you use to get. The nice thing is you’re going to get 120 gigabytes of storage on the p11 pro no matter which version you get, and some of the models have six gigabytes of ram and the galaxy tab s7 FE starts at 64 GB for the cheapest model.
Both tablets have speakers on each side, but Lenovo has four JBL speakers, and Samsung has two Akg speakers, and both have Dolby atmos.

Detailed Review | Lenovo Tab P11 Pro | Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE |
Display
When it comes to the screens on these two tablets, the Tab P11 Pro has an 11.5 inch 2560 by 1600 OLED display. Galaxy Tab has the same resolution screen, although you’re going to get a 12.4-inch screen and unfortunately, that one’s not going to be OLED or Amoled.
The screen does appear to be slightly brighter on the Tab P11 Pro; the screens on these two tablets look good; sure, if you put them next to each other, the Tab P11 Pro does look a little bit better if you’re going to be watching a video or movie on these two tablets look perfect and you’re going to get good viewing angles on both of them weird thing is when turning the screen down on Samsung, it’s darker than Lenovo. Still, yeah, you can’t go wrong with either of these when it comes to screen quality; the tablet that’s easier on the eyes when it comes to reading books or reading any text will look better on the Samsung tablet.
Battery
When it comes to the batteries on these two tablets, the Tab, S7 FE has a massive 10090 mAh battery, and the T11 pro has an 8600 mAh battery.
The Tab 11 pro lasted an hour longer at seven hours. In contrast, the galaxy tab only lasted six hours, so if you want your tablet to survive long enough to binge-watch one more episode on Netflix or Disney plus you probably better go with Lenovo when it comes to battery life now, you’re going to get 20-watt charging with Lenovo and up to 45 watts fast charging with Samsung.
Hence, it’s nice to have on both tablets now for the cameras on these two tablets; the selfie camera is quite a bit better on the Samsung tablet. Still, the rear cameras are pretty decent on both.
You get 1080p resolution for video on both tablets, but if you’re going to want to use this tablet for zoom meetings or video conferences, you’re going to want to go with Samsung.
OS
Now when it comes to the software, this will be a personal preference. Unfortunately, the Tab P11 Pro is still on Android 10, while the Galaxy Tab is on Android 11. According to their previous track record, the Tab P11 Pro will get that Android 11 updates soon, but Samsung will more than likely get more software updates.
On both tablets, you’re going to get decks on Samsung productivity mode on Lenovo, and once you connect a keyboard and mouse, both tablets are going to feel like they’re that much closer to being an actual laptop.
There are small things that do like better on the P11 Pro, like how the screen brightness and volume are extra-large even the keyboard seems a little bit larger on Lenovo, and it makes it easier to type on, but overall, Samsung software feels like it’s a little more polished.
Conclusion!
Now there are a couple of other things to consider the one you get the S pen included with the Galaxy Tab FE where you don’t get that with the Tab P11 Pro nice thing is there’s an official keyboard for both tablets and then, of course, several third-party keyboards on amazon you also get several color options with the Samsung tablet where with Lenovo you only get one, unfortunately, you don’t get a headphone jack on either tablet.
