Lenovo have just released their IdeaPad K1 tablet which adds a nice new and great looking option to your summer toy list. The IdeaPad K1 is said to come with Android 3.1 Honeycomb straight out the box, and comes with other great specs to match: NVIDIA's Tegra 2 processor clocked at 1GHz, a 10.1-inch capacitive touch-screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800, 1GB of RAM and 32GB of internal solid state drive. Read more after the break.
Other fine specs include a 2-megapixel back camera, a (surprisingly higher) 5-megapixel front camera, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, and comes in an array of summer colours (although black is an all-year-round colour... of course). The news of its recent release was announced at a press conference in Japan the other day, but the peculiar things is tha
It's been a while since we've seen any good disassembled devices, and the Lenovo LePad certainly doesn't disappoint, thanks to the good folks at IMP3. Take a look after at the gizzards of the Honeycomb tablet that is much looked forward to.
Let's get started, shall we?
We've mentioned before that Lenovo may be coming out with a 7-inch Android tablet but had no more specs or info to provide that post with - we do now. A leaked product roadmap shows that the 7-inch Lenovo tablet should be running Android 3.0 Honeycomb, be powered by a dual-core ARM-based processor and have a screen resolution of 1280 x 800. These are all similar specs to other current major tabs like the Motorola Xoom, the Acer Iconia Tab A500 and the Asus Eee Pad Transformer, but with the difference being that they sports a larger 10.1-inch screen, whereas the Lenovo tab will have a smaller, 7-inch screen which obviously means the same high res on a smaller screen. Will this affect third party apps and web pages on browsers that weren't designed for such a sharp display? We're going to
Earlier this year during CES 2011, Lenovo showed off a prototype tablet that was powered by an Intel Atom Oak Trail processing chip - The IdeaPad - which has now made an appearance on Intel's press page with a few more specs. According to the press page, the Lenovo IdeaPad will be powered by an Intel Atom Z670 Oak Trail processor, have 2GB of RAM and a 30GB SSD. Its touchscreen will allow for finger touch as well as stylus and the tablet will be able to play 1080p video playback. Another statement by Intel is that the tablet's chipset will offer lower power consumption and a long battery life. However, since Intel screwed up with their Asus Eee Pad Slider press page, we're going to have reservations about the Lenovo IdeaPad until it has its official (we don't even officially know what OS
The original Lenovo LePad hasn't even hit stores yet and already there 's supposedly a Lenovo LePad 2 that will be out later this year. Lenovo CEO Yang Yuangpin has said that a new LePad will launch in September or October, and that it will be thinner than the original. That's as far as it goes for now with no other information given about the new tablet. Keeping in mind that the original Lenovo LePad was suppose to come out last year, a September/October release date for a new LePad Android tablet will most likely be taken with a pinch of salt.

We've blogged plenty about Lenovo's Android OS tablet, the LePad. It would seem that the title LePad will only be used with this tablet for its China release, but not so for its release in America. Instead, the tablet will be called the Lenovo Skylight, and its already hit the FCC. The Lenovo Skylight will of course have the same specs as the LePad which includes a 1.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 8650A processing chip, a 10.1-inch HD multi-touch screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800, Android version 2.2 (FroYo) as its operating system with custom Lenovo 4-pane UI and a 2-megapixel camera. It also has WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, 1GB of RAM, built-in speakers and mic and a 3-axis G-sensor. Find more images of the tablet after the break, which includes open back shots showing its hardware.
The Lenovo Lepad - Lenovo's Android based tablet - has had its release date pushed back from the stated December release that we blogged about back in that month. The worldwide release date is now set for June this year, whilst its China release date is at the end of March. First seen at the CES show in January, the LePad is a 10.1-inch HD tablet that runs Android 2.2 as its OS, and is powered by a powerful 1.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. The LePad's uniqueness comes from its ability to dock on to a keyboard base that turns the tablet into a laptop that runs Windows 7 OS, thus turning the LePad into the IdeaPad U1 Hybrid. The tablet has a front and rear camera and supports video chat. An attractive 4-pane UI is used and with a service that gives you your email, news and other conte
The Lenovo IdeaPad U1 hybrid, as expected, has been announced and exposed at CES 2011. Techy JKK was lucky enough to see and test the device hands on style. The video shows the U1 in netbook form, as well as the tablet on its own - which ran Android without many glitches at all. Not only does it look nice, both on its own and with dock/keyboard, but its video playback and touchscreen also seemed to run nicely. To spruce you up on the U1, It's a 10.1-inch Android 2.2 tablet that comes with a dock/keyboard. The dock/keyboard actually has an Intel chipset that allows the docked tablet to run Windows 7 OS. The tablet as a stand alone is ultimately the Lenovo Lepad, which is sold as a separate device than the tab + Windows OS dock/keyboard. Thin, nice, solid and smooth are all words that come
Lenovo has finally lifted the veil on its Android powered Lepad, and Android/Windows 7-via-dock IdeaPad U1 Hybrid. Thanks to the good people of Liliputing, we're able to bring to you a hands on review of a demo U1. The U1, which runs Android 2.2 and uses a custom Lenovo UI (which will be the case when sold in China as opposed to Android Honeycomb - when sold in the States) has a 10.1-inch screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800. The keyboard/dock that comes with it uses an Intel Chipset, and runs Windows 7 OS, which can be changed back to Android at a slide of a switch. Un-dock the screen and wa-la, you get essentially the LePad - which still runs the same Android OS, but will not run Windows 7 OS - I repeat, the tablet without the dock will not run Windows 7 OS, which is a mistake we
It's been rumoured for a while that the LePad from Lenovo would launch in December - while that may now seem like a quick approaching deadline, we've been treated to a post on the LePad's official microblog all but confirming that the Lenovo tablet will run Windows 7. The Windows 7 reveal certainly is somewhat surprising, as Android most certainly wears the tablet OS crown at the moment. Also confirmed is that the LePad will have a removable keyboard which turns it into an effective netbook, a la the IdeaPad U1. Snazzy stuff and we can't wait to see this in action.
