Android tablets might have long become passé, but there are people out there that want them. Some of those people might not even want to turn to the market's most prolific maker of Android tablets, Samsung, and go along with its overbearing experience. For them, Lenovo is presenting two alternatives for the holiday season — a refreshed Tab M10 HD (2nd Gen) and the all-new Tab P11 Pro 2-in-1.

The second-gen M10 was already out with an FHD (1920 x 1200) display, but this version brings cost down a tad with a 1280 x 800 panel while also replacing Android 9 Pie with Android 10. It also keeps the aluminum-and-glass build and the Dolby Atmos stereo speakers for users' listening pleasure.
