Lenovo has announced a new tablet with Windows 8.1 as its operating system, ready to take on Microsoft’s very own Surface Pro 2 tablet line up. The tablet provides users with a full Windows experience and enhances productivity since it comes with the full-fledged Windows 8.1, rather than Windows RT which has had its fair share of drawbacks. It’s not just the Surface line up, the tablet looks good enough to give iPad a run for its money as well.
