Verdict

The Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 8-inch Windows edition is a versatile 802.11n Wi-Fi tablet featuring a unique cylindrical battery grip and a built-in multi-mode kickstand. It is powered by a quad-core Intel Atom Z3745 processor (up to 1.86GHz) with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, which is expandable via a microSD slot. The device boasts a sharp 8-inch Full HD (1920x1200) IPS display and front-facing large-chamber stereo speakers with Dolby Audio. Key advantages include its exceptional battery life of up to 15 hours, its ergonomic design that allows for four usage modes (Hold, Tilt, Stand, and Hang), and the inclusion of AnyPen technology that permits using standard metal objects as a stylus. However, its primary drawbacks are the limited 16GB of onboard storage, which leaves very little usable space after the Windows 8.1 OS installation, and the fact that the Windows desktop interface can feel cramped and difficult to navigate on a smaller 8-inch screen.
