I am in tech clouds today! While writing this review of Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 Pro, there is another box waiting for me downstairs ready for the unboxing! Add the gazillion little gadgets I have in my room – I am literally floating with awesome gadgets in my room!
I finally found the perfect time to write my review of the awesome Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 Pro (yes, that tablet with projector!) which I brought with me from London to Manila (ah, you should have seen the look of the airport security personnel when I unloaded my gadgets – they are from the same brand! You got it right! #iamlenovo ). I got this gadget as a gift from the Lenovo Takes London launch (and just an awesome perks of being a Lenovo Insider!)
I want to start this entry with a short disclaimer – I am no certified tech blogger and don’t confuse me with figures and specs. My review of the gadgets featured in my blog are based on my lifestyle and how these gadgets contribute to the fulfillment of my goals – be it for entertainment or business.
How do we start?
Let’s unbox!
Lenovo takes technology and innovation seriously that even the boxes and packaging are amazingly beautiful. The Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 Pro comes with manual, JBL earphones (that matches the JBL speakers) adapter, and USB connector.
I have to be honest, the first time I saw a tablet and a phablet (phone + tablet), I found it weird to be using it to take pictures and answer calls. It didn’t occur to me that I would own a bigger tablet that would give me a total entertainment experience.
The Yoga Tablet 2 Pro is a beautiful tablet of 13 inch full screen LCD with a nice cylinder on the side (that makes it perfect for the Hold mode) and sleek silver hinge. It opens with a push of a button – and that’s when the magic begins. The Yoga Tablet 2 Pro can then be used in different modes aside from Hold mode – Stand, Tilt and Hang modes.
I have previously talked about my first impressions of the Yoga Tablet 2 Pro on this blog entry, but for those who missed it, here are the specifications:
♥ Developed by Lenovo’s product engineer, Ashton Kutcher
♥ Android Kitkat 4.4
When I unboxed it, I first downloaded a game – Temple Run to test its sensitivity. I ended up playing the game for an hour after my initial test! I love the vivid color, the crisp sound and screen’s sensitivity.
A Different Yoga Experience
I brought my Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 Pro in a staycation in Pampanga. I took advantage of the beautiful poolside to do a little stretching and yoga – and my Yoga Tablet joined me. What makes it awesome? It can stand still like I did! Unlike the typical tablet which would need a good case to support it and make it stand, the Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 Pro is so portable, keeping its beautiful stance in whichever surface I place it on.
How would you use it?
