Lenovo will soon announce its line of Yoga 2 tablets. As previously announced, it will arrive in three different sizes: 8, 10,1 and 13,3 inches, although the great news is that users will have the possibility to choose between Windows 8.1 and Android. This is a strategy that we will see repeated more often from now on, since the reduction of the price of Windows licenses (free in some cases) by Microsoft will give companies the flexibility to launch equipment with hardware and similar prices with both operating systems.
Finally it seems that Lenovo will pull through the middle lane, and will present within two days, the October 9, up to a total of six new tablets. Three different hardware configurations, with screen sizes of 8, 10,1 and 13,3 inches and two operating systems. Although there are no specific details of each and every one of the versions, we do have the data related to two of the Android variants, which helps us to get a fairly rough idea of the rest.

Like the entire range, aesthetically, the folding stand stands out, which will allow us to use the tablet in different positions. It will have an 8-inch screen with resolution Full HD (1.920 x 1.200 pixels), processor Intel Bay Trail Z3745 quad-core accompanied by 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage expandable via microSD.

Its price with Android 4.4 Kitkat will be $229, and the version with Windows 8.1 (with Bing) is expected to be exactly the same as there is no additional cost to Lenovo.

About this tablet we do not have much information available, but it is expected that it will have similar characteristics to the previous model, with slight differences such as the battery, which will have a greater capacity. We will have to wait for the announcement to know its price, which will be located on an intermediate scale between 8.0 and 13,3 inches that we now tell you.
Yoga 2 Pro 13.3
It seems that this model will incorporate the surname Pro, a way to highlight its purpose. Same design features and a 13,3-inch screen with resolution X. Inside we find the processor Intel Bay Trail Z3745 Quad-Core, 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of expandable internal storage. It is expected to include WiFi connectivity, Bluetooth, HDMI port and the battery grows to 9.600 mAh.
