Lenovo has also launch a Yoga Tab 3 and Yoga Tab 3 Pro which
will be available in Australia shortly for $699. The device has been configured
for Netflix with the app preloaded out of the box.

The Yoga Tab 3 Pro is a bit smaller than last year’s model
however it does have a brand new projector located in the middle of the tabled
as opposed to the end on the stand as built into previous models.

The  screen is now 10
inches as opposed to 13, which leads to a higher pixel density on its QHD
display.

Lenovo says improvements have been made to the projector
inside, which has gotten brighter and can now beam out a 70-inch picture – and
you can point it at either the wall or your ceiling this time.

Sound quality is also a major focus, as the Yoga 3 Tab Pro
has four front-facing speakers and what Lenovo describes as “virtualized
Dolby Atmos” for an experience the company says can replicate surround
sound. Such claims rarely pan out, but if you need to throw on a Netflix movie
for a small room or restless kids (like say, when Netflix gets first dibs on
Disney films next year), it might work out just fine.

The Yoga Tab 3 is more your standard, low-end Android tablet
fare. Some aesthetic changes from last year exist though; the
“Lenovo” logo around back has been replaced with Yoga branding. The
device claim to “long battery life,” a 1280 x 800 display,
front-facing stereo audio, and a weight of 466 grams.

The Tab 3 also features a rotating battery and gesture
controls so you can snap posed photos when the tablet’s not in your hands. Both
editions of the new Yoga Tab line include pretty light customization of
Android, though the cheaper devices pack in the bloatware you’d expect. The
8-inch Yoga Tab 3 will be available next month, with the 10-inch variant and
Yoga Tab 3 Pro following sometime in November.
