Lenovo Yoga Tab 10 HD+ review
7/28/2014 2:05:03 PM

Lenovo's Yoga Tab proves that tablets haven't reached their ultimate form factor just yet.

For as fast, powerful and portable as they've become, tablets haven't necessarily been on the cutting edge of hardware innovation. In terms of developing fresh, exciting form factors and features, manufacturers typically focus on smartphones with which to step outside of the box. With tablets, on the other hand, they have found their comfort zone – outside of Samsung's push for more and more size options and software features, we haven't really seen that much innovation, at least in terms of hardware, since Android tablets entered the market a few years ago.

Enter the Lenovo Yoga Tab, a device that bucks that trend. Lenovo first introduced the Yoga Tab back in 2013 and since then it has undergone a few revisions before landing at the latest iteration, the Yoga Tab 10 HD+.

Yoga Tabs are known for what Lenovo calls their "Multimode Design" – in short, rather than housing its battery behind the display, the Yoga Tab features a battery cylinder and kickstand. This not only keeps the Yoga Tab remarkably thin, but it also allows it to take on various forms, from "Stand" for watching movies and video to "Tilt" for typing and gaming.

I spent a month with the Yoga Tab 10 HD+ and found that a tablet doesn't have to be jam packed with bells and whistles and top of the line specs to be truly innovative.

 

LG TabBook 11 brings together Intel, a keyboard, and Android in unholy matrimony
7/28/2014 2:02:48 PM

LG is showing off a new Android tablet, with specs you wouldn't ever expect to see in an Android tablet. The LG TabBook 11 runs Android, but features a sliding keyboard and laptop internals — an Intel Core i5 CPU, 4GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD for internal storage. The addition of two full-size USB 3.0 ports and HDMI as well as an 11.6-inch IPS display out round out the specifications. All this is running Android 4.2.2, and LG says the experience should be "optimal."

 

How to use Android Wear as a stopwatch
7/28/2014 1:16:18 PM

Using the stopwatch in Android Wear is dead simple once you find it

There's a simple stopwatch feature built into every Android Wear device — that includes the Samsung Gear Live, Moto 360 and LG G Watch — that let's you time just about anything. It's accurate (compared to "official" timers at the local drag strip) and has a no-nonsense interface. If you need to time any single event, it will do exactly what you need it to do.

Let's take a look at where to find it and how to use it.

 

Win a Moto G and Chromecast (two, in fact) from Android Central and Republic Wireless!
7/28/2014 12:40:02 PM

What do you get when you take one of the best affordable smartphones around and pair it with an innovative operator? You get the Motorola Moto G on Republic Wireless' $10 plan, which includes unlimited Wifi calling, texting and data. (And all that Wifi goodness means you're calling and texting and the like for free when you're abroad.) That's what.

And Republic Wireless is serving up a couple Moto Gs for us to serve up to you fine folks. What's more is that they're throwing in a Chromecast for each as well.

To enter to win one of the sets (you can't win both), all you need to do is leave a comment in this post and tell us what you'd do with all that money you'd be saving if you were on a $10 a month plan. Just one comment — multiples won't help you any. We'll take entries through 5 p.m. PDT Tuesday, July 29. Good luck!

And you can check out more on Republic Wireless' affordable plans here.
