  • ThinkPad 8 compared to Surface 2Building a tablet that tries to meld the best of two lifestyles — play and business — is no easy task, not even for Microsoft. After testing out the Lenovo ThinkPad 8, it remains clear to me that smaller tablets just can't...

  • Full HD display -- a rarity among 8-inch Windows tablets, One of the only tablets this size offered with 128GB of built-in storage, Thin and light, even for a small-screened tablet
  • Worst-in-class battery life, Expensive compared to other 8-inch Windows tablets, Aluminum case scratches easily, as does the screen, Backside can get quite hot, Slower-than-average boot-up time
  • With a high price and worst-in-class battery life, the ThinkPad 8 should be the first 8-inch Windows tablet you cross off your shopping list. Though not terrible in its own right, other small-screened slates offer more value for less money....

  • Affordable $400 base price that’s aggressive, Compact design that’s travel friendly and sturdy, Display resolution produces crisp visuals, Desktoplike experience in a small package
  • Lack of additional productivity software out of the box, Focusing is problematic with the camera
  • We can’t stress enough how the Lenovo ThinkPad 8 has more flexibility than other prized tablets in the space. Giving us that desktop-like experience thanks to Windows 8.1, it has an advantage in the productivity side over other Android tablets and the ...

  • Lenovo has a winner with the ThinkPad 8 -- it's designed in such a way that it feels very portable, yet the quality display and use of Windows 8.1 means it can be used for business tasks that your average Android slate might not be up for. The Quickshot...

  • Fast Intel Atom processor, Crisp 1900-by-1200-pixel display, Excellent build quality
  • Lower-than-average battery life, Awkward I/O port locations, No digitizing pen or keyboard-case options
  • Lenovo's ThinkPad 8 offers many advantages over competing 8 inch Windows tablets, including a faster processor, more storage, and a higher-resolution screen. But it comes up short when it comes to battery life and you'll want to add a mouse and keyboard f...

  • Putting a full installation of Windows 8.1 on a tablet may seem like overkill, but you also can easily see the appeal. Yes, a 1920x1200 resolution on an 8.3-inch screen makes for some tiny icons and tinier text. Yes, it can be a little tricky to select op...

  • Small 8-inch form factor is truly portable. All-day battery life. QuickShot cover makes photos a snap. Professional, yet affordable.
  • QuickShot smart cover is optional (and extra). No physical keyboard option. Few ports and connections available
  • The Lenovo ThinkPad 8 is an 8-inch Windows tablet that puts your work into a handheld PC you can slip into a coat pocket. It's not a replacement for your work system, but it's an excellent companion to it....

  • Excellent high-res screen, Ships with 64GB of storage standard, Better CPU and camera than most Windows 8 tablets of this size
  • Competing devices offer better accessory options, Battery life could be better, Poorly placed stereo speakers
  • With its high-res IPS screen, surprisingly good camera, and 64GB of storage, Lenovo's ThinkPad 8 is perhaps the best 8-inch Windows tablet we've tested. But if you can live with a lower-res screen and less storage, competing devices can be had for ha...
