Lenovo hasn’t taken much care to enshroud its trio of newly announced Android slates in any kind of secrecy. The tabs have been teased on the company’s site for some time, but that’s not holding the Chinese outfit back from making an official announcement at IFA 2012. Taking a slight step down in size from the S2110, the 9-inch IdeaTab A2109 ups the internal ante of its more premium stablemate with a 1.2GHz quad-core Tegra 3 buffered by 1GB DDR3 RAM, while also packing in a 1280 x 800 LED display, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing / 3-megapixel rear cameras, SRS sound, ports for a 3.5mm headphone jack, micro-USB and micro-HDMI. And for users more accustomed to quality builds, the slate shouldn’t disappointed as its rear encasement is of the all aluminum variety and lending to its 1.3 pounds (570g) of bulk. Storage for this Android 4.0 slate is not as robust as its larger counterpart, but the 16GB allotted is expandable via microSD. The tab’s already available online and at BestBuy, so if you want to call this your own, prepare to part with $299.

Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 arrives at Best Buy

Are you looking forward to a new Android-powered tablet, but are not quite sure of what particular brand or make to purchase? Perhaps we might be able to help nudge you in the right direction here with the Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 which has just arrived at Best Buy’s online channels, where this 9” tablet will come with 16GB of internal memory, an NVIDA Tegra 3 processor (which apparently, is able to be overclocked to speeds of up to 2GHz as evident in the Nexus 7 overclocking attempt), in addition to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich as the operating system of choice.

This particular tablet will retail for $299, and if you prefer to do your consumer electronics shopping in brick and mortar stores, then you can also pick up the Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 from grounded Best Buy locations as well. It does seem to be a tad early though, which is a good thing, as we reported earlier this month that this particular tablet will arrive next month instead.
