Lenovo Tab Extreme takes on the iPad Pro, complete with Magic Keyboard clone

For a few years now, Lenovo has been a reliable builder of high-end Android tablets. Its latest is the "Lenovo Tab Extreme," an extra-large tablet whose 14.5-inch display lands right in the normal laptop range. It also has a laptop-sized price: $1,199. The tablet is meant to compete directly with the iPad Pro, and there's even a floaty "magic keyboard" clone.

The display is a 14.5-inch 3000×1876, 120 Hz OLED with an ambient color sensor. That's big, and the tablet without any accessories weighs 740 g (1.63 lbs). There's pen input via the included "Lenovo Precision Pen 3," a magnetically attachable Bluetooth pen with 4,096 levels of pressure, tilt sensitivity, and all the usual detection.

The big new addition is the new "Lenovo Tab Extreme Keyboard," which attaches to the tablet via magnets and pogo pins, allowing it to be powered by the tablet battery. The whole thing cribs Apple's "Magic Keyboard" design, with the tablet floating above the keyboard. The hinge works a lot like a laptop, allowing you to tilt the screen to a comfortable position or just close the whole thing like a traditional laptop. The keyboard is full-size and has backlit keys and a tiny trackpad at the bottom.
