Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 2026: IFA 4K 144Hz and 12,700mAh Cell
IFA Berlin: a 13-inch 4K 144Hz Yoga flagship and an 11.1-inch sibling, both on Android 17 with a seven-year security window. EU list about €849 / €649.
Lenovo used IFA 2026 in Berlin to refresh the Yoga tablet line: the flagship Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 and the lighter Yoga Tab Gen 2. Gadgets Now on 4 September checked that both ship Android 17, with seven OS upgrades and security patches described as lasting up to seven years. This is a shelf story, not a meeting-product how-to.
The query is Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 2026. The Plus is a 13-inch 4K panel at up to 144Hz, Snapdragon 8 Elite, and a 12,700mAh cell. The standard slate is 11.1-inch 4K, Dimensity 9500s, 11,000mAh. Lenovo’s EU list sits near €849 and €649, with stores later in September 2026.
What outlets checked
Techaeris on 3 September put the pair inside Lenovo’s wider Yoga creator wave at IFA, next to RTX Spark notebooks and a Smart Canvas concept. Gadgets Now split the two Android tablets into checkable numbers.
13-inch flagship
Plus: 3840×2560, 3:2, 355ppi, 144/120/90/60/30Hz, 1,100-nit peak, Dolby Vision. Snapdragon 8 Elite, up to 16GB + 512GB, plus 2TB microSD. About 605g, Cosmic Blue only.
11.1-inch lighter cut
Gen 2: the same 4K 3:2 and 144Hz, 415ppi. Dimensity 9500s, up to 12GB + 256GB. About 480g, Cosmic Blue or Seashell. Keyboard is a detachable 2-in-1, not the magnetic clamshell.
Software written to 2033
Both promise seven platform upgrades to Android 24 and security “up to seven years” through 2033. Gadgets Now noted that “up to” is not a per-unit hard lock.
How pen, keyboard, and radios line up
Both work with Tab Pen Pro 2. Techaeris wrote 8,192 pressure levels, tilt, and palm rejection, plus Click to Draw, Squeeze to Select, and Flip to Erase. Radios: Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, USB-C 3.2 Gen 1, keyboard pogo pins. Qira-side tools include AI Vision, Smart AI Input, AI Note, and Live Transcript.
| Item | Yoga Tab Gen 2 | Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Display | 11.1-inch 4K, ~480g | 13-inch 4K, ~605g |
| Chip / cell | Dimensity 9500s, 11,000mAh, 68W | Snapdragon 8 Elite, 12,700mAh, 68W |
| EU list | About €649 | About €849 (some press: €999) |
- Charge and size?
- Both list 68W. Plus about 291.78×200.3×8.27mm; Gen 2 about 250.60×172.98×8.56mm. Plus has six Harman Kardon speakers; Gen 2 has four.
- Which SKUs?
- Gadgets Now: Plus in 12+256, 16+256, 16+512; Gen 2 in 8+128, 8+256, 12+256. Both expand by microSD to 2TB.
What this has to do with a browser room
A tablet calendar changes the shelf, not the short co-creation loop: open a browser, share one page, finish the drawing. For the board itself, see whiteboard basics. For phones joining cleanly, read mobile browser notes. Same-week IFA copy: Motorola Edge 70 Plus. Android 17 also shows up in Motion Assist. To open a room now, go to the rtcroom home page.
Still wondering?
Can I buy one in the US now?
Lenovo published European list prices and a later-September store window. US price and stock are not officially confirmed. Dollar figures in Gadgets Now are unconfirmed estimates.
Are seven upgrades a hard lock?
The stated line is seven OS upgrades to Android 24 and security “up to seven years” through 2033. Gadgets Now noted Lenovo has not broken the pledge device by device, and “up to” leaves room.
Is the stylus the same on both?
Both support Tab Pen Pro 2. Techaeris wrote 8,192 pressure levels and the same gesture set. Keyboards differ: magnetic clamshell on Plus, detachable 2-in-1 on Gen 2.
