Lenovo announces YOGA Tablet 2 Pro with built in projector
Lenovo has today announced YOGA Tablet 2 Pro, a 13” tablet powered by Intel 4th generation Atom processor. Running Android v4.4 KitKat or Windows 8.1 operating system, this tablet is tailor made for those who love multimedia. A Pico projector is built into the tablet that lets users project the display onto a wall. Add to this an 8 watt speakers with built-in subwoofer and users can enjoy a movie anywhere they go. The project can create a 50” home theatre experience when focussed on a flat surface. Users can use this tablet in three modes, Stand-Tilt-Hold and there is a new mode Hang where you can actually hang the tablet to an object. The kickstand too is larger than in previous variants. On a single charge, this tablet can deliver 15 hours of battery life.
“The YOGA Tablet 2 Pro is the culmination of the most extensive research and feedback we’ve ever undertaken, and Ashton has been with us every step of the way, bringing new ideas to the table, challenging us and always advocating for users,” said Jeff Meredith, vice president, Mobile Business Group, Lenovo. “As a result, we’ve preserved the best features of the original YOGA Tablet – the modes and the long battery life – and now we’ve raised the bar completely with technologies like the projector that keep changing the way we think of tablets.”
“Our vision for the YOGA Tablet 2 Pro was to create the best tablet on the market,” said Ashton Kutcher, Lenovo product engineer. “To do that, we really looked at how people use tablets and what they needed for a better experience. The YOGA Tablet 2 Pro has got the best sound, a dramatically brilliant camera and display, a new mode, a projector and top processor, so I think we created the best tablet available. I can’t wait for people to try it.”
