LENOVO Miix2- 8 inch tablet review

There's a long-term trend in technology for each generation of new tech to be bigger and more feature-packed than the last. But tablet PCs such as the Lenovo Miix 2 8 resolutely buck that trend. In some ways spurred on by the success of the iPad mini, manufacturers are looking to make smaller devices than previous generations, with 8-inch screens appearing to be the sweet spot.

In many ways this makes a lot of sense. Larger screens such as those found on the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 or the Sony Xperia Tablet Z are excellent for watching films and playing games on, but tablets with smaller screens – and therefore smaller overall body size and weight – have proven to be much more comfortable to hold, easier to carry and generally more convenient for day-to-day tasks.

With its low price and decent performance, the Miix 2 8 from Lenovo is an affordable tablet option for who need a Windows 8 tablet that won't the bank.

The 8-inch display doesn't have the resolution chops to hang with the Nexus 7 or iPad Air, but it still has "excellent color and contrast," according to PC Mag. And thanks to that 8-inch display, TechSpot finds it "thin and reasonably light."

That portable exterior is joined on the inside by an Intel Atom processor and 2GB of RAM -- which isn't much, but it's just enough to take care of your daily needs, with PC World finding the performance "impressive" while TechRadar says it's "solid and dependable," though multitasking too much can "slow things down quite dramatically." As long as you keep your expectations in check, the 8-inch Miix 2 is a reasonable Windows 8.1 tablet at a reasonable cost.

 

Reviews from  LENOVO Miix2- 8 inch tablet owners:

(1) This tablet is an affordable Windows 8 tablet with good LENOVO Miix2- 8 tablet battery life and features. Just make sure you always have access to the Internet, as local storage is a little light on this tablet.  

(2) With its attractive, compact design and sub-£300 price tag the Miix 2 8 is one of the new Windows tablets that provides a more affordable alternative to the Microsoft Surface. 

(3) This new Miix 2 seems to have been dealt a better hand, as RT has been swept under the rug and the Bay Trail chip is restoring faith in Intel's tablet capabilities. Compared side by side with an iPad mini, Apple’s smaller tablet certainly feels more premium than the Lenovo; that’s where a metal casing comes in. It’s not to say the Miix2 necessarily comes across as cheap.  

(4)  Is any vendor willing to mix it up with Asus' hot-selling Transformer Book T100? Lenovo is, with a matched set of Miix 2 detachables—a 10.1-inch with "Bay Trail" Atom and an 11.6-inch with Core i5 power, with laptop and tablet plus a stand or presentation mode the Asus device lacks.
