Lenovo Intros the Miix2, An 8-inch Windows 8.1 Tablet

Lenovo today announced the Lenovo Miix2 8-inch tablet, a Windows 8.1 multi-mode device that packs an Intel quad-core processor and IPS high-definition display into a small tablet form factor.

Paired with an optional stylus and detachable cover, the Lenovo Miix2 8-inch joins its popular predecessor, the Lenovo Miix.

Measuring only 8.35mm thick and weighing a mere 350mg, the Lenovo Miix2 8-inch tablet has a 10-point multi-touch WXGA 16:10 widescreen display, which delivers an 800 x 1280 resolution and a 178-degree viewing angle. The tablet is equipped with two webcams, one in front (2MP) and one in back (5MP), and comes pre-loaded with Windows 8.1.

Underneath the hood, Lenovo Miix2 8-inch packs an Intel Bay Trail-T Quad Core processor, based on Intel Atom S architecture and integrated Intel HD Graphics (Gen7) with Clear Video HD technology. It has also up to 128GB of eMMC onboard storage (expandable up to 32GB with micro-SD slot).

The device comes pre-installed with Microsoft Office Home & Student 2013, allowing users to easily view, edit and manage their documents right out of the box. The tablet also offers the option of a stylus and detachable cover. The cover protects the screen when not in use and doubles as a stand for viewing content on the device.

The Miix2 8-inch will be available later this month beginning at approximately $300.
