TechSpot: Lenovo Miix 2 8 Review

The Lenovo Miix 2 8 is a very decent value for $280. The use of aluminum for its body is great to see, its overall size is quite comfortable, and Windows 8.1 has some neat features for power users.

Even though Windows 8 has been out for some time now, it's been only since late last year that we started to see 8-inch Windows tablets headed to market. The Miix 2 8 isn’t geared up for high performance tasks, nor does it have top-end features, but its use of an Intel Atom x86-capable processor and 1280 x 800 display present very decent value for the tablet’s $240 asking price (originally it was $300).

The use of aluminum as part of the Miix 2 8’s slim design is great to see, and its overall size is quite comfortable, striking a great mix between portability and usability. All of this is complemented by Windows 8.1 itself, which may not have the greatest selection of touch-enabled apps, but does have a fantastic range of built-in features for power users. Unfortunately, though, we encountered with one major deal breaker during our time with the Miix 2 8.
