I'm researching Lenovo P11 for a new tablet.
All of the model numbers I'm finding start with ZA (ie ZA940077US), but all of the models in the forum start with TB and none match up with anything being sold (even on Lenovo's site).
Is there some cross reference for model numbers somewhere?
Also, all of the Lenovo pads I've come across say they are rubbing A11 or A10, but everything in this forum refers to ZUI for the OS.

All I can see is that the ZA numbers are part numbers on Lenovo's website. the TB numbers are the model numbers you'll find in the Android Settings. e.g. TB132FU is the P11 Pro Gen 2.
I'd disregard the ZA numbers and use the Android Update Matrix as a guide for how the common name corresponds to the TB model numbers. It also gives you an idea of what to expect in terms of update support:
Android Upgrade Matrix - Lenovo Support CA
support.lenovo.com
Here's a screenshot of the P series of tablets from that page. If you care about updates, I'd stick with one of the second gen tablets as they will be getting Android 13 and 14.

I see your location says you're in NY. If you buy directly from the Lenovo website or a local authorized seller of Lenovo tablets (like Best Buy or whatever) you'll get a tablet that runs Lenovo's official OS with the latest version of Android available for that device. I purchased the Lenovo P11 Pro (Gen 2) directly from the Lenovo website back in November. It's currently on Android 12, receives OTA updates fine, and I haven't had any of the Netflix widevine issues.
There are a lot of people here who purchase these devices from Aliexpress and other resellers which seem to be the Chinese models of the tablet which come with ZUI, or the seller has flashed a customized global version of Android which causes issues with Netflix not working as it should be and OTA updates not working, among other things.

Man i've been waiting for this. I saw on Engadget this morning that it was out and I promptly installed it. Downloading Monster Madness now!
I've been looking forward to Tegra Zone probably more than 3.0.
What a joke, they make no mention of the Viewsonic g tablet as one of the super tablets is this because VS just slapped their name on a chinese tab or what?
Yeah and the Atrix isn't mentioned in the phones section either...wierd.
As for the actual app, you would think they'd have at least 1 free game...oh well

I was coming here to post just that.
At least the Atrix is newish. Of course, the LG hasn't even been released yet.
The GTablet has been around as an official(?) tablet sold here in the U.S by US merchants and vendors both online as well as brick and mortar. Staples, Office Deport, Amazon, J&R, Buy.com, Sears....etc. It's not like it's source-able online only or you have to be a geek to track one down to buy, as you would the Advent Vega or Zpad.
It's possible Nvidia is only grouping up the tablets/phones that are shipping with Gingerbread and Honeycomb or are at the higher end - in which case, they'd be completely justified.

They are "Super" tablets, so you're probably right.
Was anyone successful in downloading this app? I tried and I receive the message "The requested item could not be found." Does anyone have a way around this? It would be GREAT to get a nice, new set of games to finally start tapping into this hardware we bought!
I'm running Stock TnT with Stock Enhancements.

i just kept trying, eventually it worked. Maybe try to restore the market (clear data, force stop on both google services and market, try market get error, shutdown, wait 2 mins, reboot).
As is the mercurial way the Market works, I got the Tegra app fine, but can't bring up any of the apps they mention. Anyone else having that issue (I am trying TNT Lite 4.2.4 at the moment)
After so much confussion with tech sites calling it Motorola Moto G4 and other Lenovo Moto G4, we found out that the devices are actually "Motorola Moto G4".

UPDATE:
- Motorola is the manufacturer of the phone according to its system specs
- The phone carries Motorola Mobile Computing System as per the official specs (motorola.com)
- Its internals (like the battery) come with the Motorola original logo.
- The box of the phone says "Manufactured by Motorola Mobility"
- Under settings you will also see "Motorola Privacy" and "Motorola ID"
- The box has a little Lenovo logo, yes, but it also has the Motorola logo (not the M only, the full name) and in its product information says it is "Motorola Moto G4 XTxxxx"
- The moto Gs sold in the US and Latin America will only have a small Lenovo logo in the back of the box. The ones sold in Europe and Asia will have a small Lenovo logo in the front
- Under the back cover it says "Designed by Motorola"

Well in a way, you are correct. It is Motorola's and not Lenovo's. Look at Lenovo and Motorola as 2 different companies and Lenovo being the bigger one and having 51% share in Motorola's shares while the rest 49% is with Google and others. So partially Motorola's owners are Lenovo but that doesn't mean every device Motorola launches has to be a Lenovo branding device. It is more of Motorola with Lenovo backing it financially as well as marketing it. And to be clear, it is Motorola G4 Plus not Lenovo.

I was thinking about buying a Mate 9 (the US version) but one thing I've encountered with some Chinese phones I've tried (OnePlus 2 & 3, ZTE Axon 7) is that they cannot play HD movies from several different services like Google Play Movies and Vudu (it's an issue with Google Widevine DRM). I tried Googling around, but I couldn't find anything regarding the Mate 9.
Basically, when you click on a movie to purchase in Google Play, does it say something like "Note: HD purchases will play in SD on this device"?
For example:

Using the international version. L29C636.
I get these on 2 different movies.
So I guess it depends on the movie also?

Yeah, I saw something similar with the OP3 and Axon 7. It depends on the movie studio in some cases, but many of the major studios require phones to have a Google Widevine DRM security level of L1 to playback their movies in HD, regardless of what video service you are using. Chinese phones in particular tend to have a security level of L3 (you can see which your phone has by using the DRM Info app).
On a 5.9" display, 480p is...not so great.
Could anyone with a US model verify that this issue exists? It's probably the same as the international model, but I would like to know for sure.
Same issue with US version.
There seems to be some compatibility issues with some apps and Android services. Something Huawei week need to work on
DRM Info shows a security level of L1, yet no HD from Google Play.

Well that's bizarre. I wonder what the actual problem is then...
What about Vudu? Same thing?
First impression.
Very friendly in size, screen, handling.
MIUI 14 Android 13.0.9 update. Interesting in many ways, but more difficult to discover the properties in the setup than MIUI 13.
Apparently the same problems in the older MIUI configuration. (Difficult to change the MIUI system launcher or cancel the apk download from unauthorized sources, for example)
Chinese apks almost all uninstallable.
Google play pre-installed, Chrome installable, Maps, Google One.
Fast wireless charging
A very good phone, a bit expensive, but much better than the xiaomi 12.
Unlock in 7 days.

An FHD+ screen on a device of this price is a bit of an overkill.

Oh, I see. Thanks.
I had the Xiaomi 12 and found that to be an excellent device with very few flaws in my eyes. The only thing I missed was a flat screen. Purchased my Xiaomi 13 12gb 256gb storage from china. Only issue I have found so far was that it has taken a bit of setting up to get the majority of google services on there and working. So far the only thing that does not work is google assistant via voice recognition.

Did you install the Galaxy Wearable? You need this + plugins to connect samsung accessories to none samsung phones (I connect the same way my Buds Pro Samsung to the Xiaomi 13)
Yes I have both .
Nothing on the intenet too, only this -> https://www.droidwin.com/cannot-pair-galaxy-watch-5-pro-with-xiaomi-redmi-fix/ -> tryinga chineese version of wear os app, but that`s weird as that`s not samsung`s app...

What phone are you using, Xiaomi?
Samsung states phones running Android 5.0 or higher with 1.5GB memory or more are compatible.
Samsung has a compatibility list at https://www.samsung.com/ie/support/mobile-devices/what-phones-are-compatible-with-the-galaxy-watch/

like i stated in OP i use a Mi 13... i used it on mi 11 pro also but there it works.
i contacted samsung.. the watch isnt defect so i have to contact xiaomi... as far as they know all devices android 6 and above and 1.5 gb ram should work
does anybody know why there is for google fit no body sensor permission in cn rom, so steps counting isnt working without watch just on phone
Because google indexed this thread as problem with connect galaxy watch 5 to xiaomi 13 pro here is working solution for global rom (xiaomi eu for me): https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xiaomi-13-pro-global-rom.4538825/post-88448171
