Lenovo Yoga Tablet 10 HD+ with 10.1-inch full-HD display, Android 4.3 launched

Lenovo has unveiled the Yoga Tablet 10 HD+ at the MWC 2014 in Barcelona. The Chinese manufacturer has announced that the tablet will be available starting April this year and will ship at a starting price of $349, which translates to roughly Rs. 21,700.

The Lenovo Yoga Tablet 10 HD+ is an incremental update to the Yoga Tablet 10 that was launched last year. The Yoga Tablet 10 HD+, much like its predecessor, is a multimode Android tablet featuring hold, tilt and stand modes.

The new tablet by Lenovo features a 10.1-inch display with a resolution of 1920x1200 pixels resolution and boasts a 178-degree wide viewing angle.

Notably, the Yoga Tablet 10 HD+ will be available in two variants: Wi-Fi and 3G. The 3G model of the tablet is powered by a 1.6GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon (MSM8228), while the Wi-Fi variant is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon APQ8028 chipset. The tablet runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and is upgradeable to Android 4.4 KitKat via over-the-air (OTA) update, according to the company.

The Yoga Tablet 10 HD+ includes 2GB of RAM and comes in two storage variants 16GB and 32GB, and supports additional 64GB microSD card.

The tablet sports an 8-megapixel rear camera and also houses a 1.6-megapixel front camera. The Yoga Tablet 10 HD+ packs a 9000mAh battery, which, the company claims, can deliver up to 18 hours of battery life. The tablet weighs 615 grams.

Jeff Meredith, Vice President, Marketing, Mobile Business Group, Lenovo said, "Customers have told us they love the YOGA Tablet for its clever design that gives them a better way for all the different ways they use tablets. Now we've created the new YOGA Tablet 10 HD+ to give consumers the ultimate multimode tablet experience, packing it with premium technologies from a gorgeous screen to faster processor to user-centric software."
