60% Lenovo Mii 10 Windows Tablet Review
Source: Comp Reviews Archive.org version
Lenovo's Miix 10 is a mid-priced full Windows tablet. It has a nice size and offers a slightly better screen than most in this price range but there just isn't enough to really distinguish it from a number of other offerings. In fact, the best feature is the fact that it has a dedicated power connector that means it charges much faster than most tablets that use USB charging.

Comment

Model:

The Lenovo Pad Miix is a Windows 8 tablet with a keyboard that is remarkably slim and light. As it is less than 1 cm thick and weighs 0.6 kg, it is an extremely ultra portable Windows 8 device that is perfect for light tasks. With a understated black bezel and silver back, it looks nice enough and it certainly feels well built. Its 10.1 inch screen features a 1366 x 768 resolution, which is unusual for a tablet and makes it extremely tall in portrait orientation. It comes with an aesthetically minimalist case that houses the keyboard and folds out into a dock that holds the tablet in place with magnets. The keyboard does not feature a touchpad and since the only micro USB port is used to dock it - the only way to connect a mouse is through Bluetooth. The power of this device comes from the Intel Atom Z2760 processor, a 1.8GHz dual-core chip. This is decent for most Android tablets, but in Windows 8 there will be instances of lag during multitasking.

A 64GB SSD hard drive allows the Lenovo IdeaPad Miix to wake up extremely fast, and the microSD slot allows you to add more storage if necessary. The battery life is decent enough when compared to the competition, lasting about 10 hours of light use. At the end of the day, the Lenovo IdeaPad Miix is a nifty little device but the lack of a second USB port or touchpad and the price point just make it a bad choice.

PowerVR SGX545:

Integrated GPU in a number of Intel Atom Clover Trail processors.

These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.

Intel Atom: The Intel Atom series is a 64-Bit (not every model supports 64bit) microprocessor for cheap and small notebooks (so called netbooks), MIDs, or UMPCs. The speciality of the new architecture is the "in order" execution (instead of the usual and faster "out of order" execution). Therefore, the transistor count of the Atom series is much lower and, thus, cheaper to produce. Furthermore, the power consumption is very low. The performance per Megahertz is therfore worse than the old Pentium 3M (1,2 GHz on par with a 1.6 GHz Atom).

Z2760: Soc with integrated dual core Atom processor clocked at up to 1.8 GHz (only Turbo?), a PowerVR SGX 545 based GPU clocked at 533 MHz and a dual channel LPDDR2-800 memory controller.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

10.10":

This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.

Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.

In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.

In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.

74.33%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
