the selection of affordable 2-in-1
gadgets has gotten quite solid as well. The most recent product in this
category just got leaked as the Lenovo Miix 320.
Just like the Miix 310 before it, the 320 packs all
of its power into a traditional tablet design that can then be docked into a
keyboard stand for additional functionality. You won't find a kickstand
anywhere on the Miix 320 like you will on the Surface Pro 4 and many other
tablet/laptop combos, but this is a very common omission when looking at
2-in-1s that are very clearly targeted at a budget-minded audience. Powering
the Miix 320 is reportedly an Intel Atom X5-Z8350 processor, and you'll be able
to get the tablet with either 2 or 4GB of RAM depending on how much speed you
think you'll need for your day-to-day tasks.
The front on the Lenovo Miix 320 is home to a 1920 x
1080 Full HD display, and we're guessing that it'll come equipped wit the same
screen size as the Miix 310 at 10.1-inches. This is a modest increase from
the 1280 x 800 resolution that's found on last year's model, but it's a spec
bump nonetheless. The Miix 320 will also come
equipped with a USB Type-C port, 3.5-millimeter headphone jack, micro HDMI
port, microSD card reader, 2 USB ports on the keyboard dock, front and
bottom-firing speakers, and LTE connectivity support for an Internet connection
while on the go.
All signs are pointing to the Miix 320 featuring a
price tag of US$ 220, but this will of course increase depending on which
configuration you go with. Additional RAM and that LTE support will likely come
at an added cost, but a US$ 220 starting price would still make the Miix 320
cheaper than the 310's starting price tag of US$ 300.
