Lenovo Miix 3 launches in China

The Lenovo Miix 3 tablet has been in the rumor mill for a while as first images showing it leaked online back in March. This Windows 8.1 tablet now launches in China and its specs do not appear to be much higher than those of its predecessor, namely the Lenovo Miix 2.

While the Lenovo Miix 2-8 has an Intel Atom Z3740 processor, 2 GB of memory and up to 32 GB of internal storage, the new Lenovo Miix 3 has rather similar specs: Intel Atom Z3700 processor, 7.85-inch IPS display, 2 GB of memory, as well as an unknown amount of internal storage. Probably the most attractive part of this new slate is its premium-looking aluminum body which also offers enhanced shock resistance next to the stylish looks and the great feeling it provides when held.

Lenovo Miix 3 weighs about 0.77 pounds and comes loaded with Windows 8.1 like its predecessors. It costs about $245 USD on the Chinese market but for now availability and pricing for the rest of the world are still unknown. We will get back to this interesting entry-level slate as soon as we find out more about it.
