What's great about it: it has a very nice display and the latest processor
What's not so great: price is too high
I like this for gaming and email but for productivity I went with the Lenovo Miix 8 . Sold at best buy as well only for $299
It runs full windows 8.1 and can handle PhotoShop. IPad mini can browse the net extremely well though as long as you don't go to a Flash site.

What's not so great: lenovo didnt include any cons on this tablet. It deserves a class of its own
This is my first Lenovo tablet and I am more than pleased with it. Its performance is amazing for a higher priced tablet let alone one that's priced at $249. This tablet really has everything. Lenovo hit on all cylinders here. 20 hour battery, HD display that is gorgeous, integrated kickstand, wireless display out, Dolby speakers, EXCELLENT build quality!
I can also confirm that is plays games like Real Racer 2, and NFS without any trouble. I was really surprised to see how good it ran those. AND it has a micro SD. You won't be disappointed.

What's great about it: comes with keyboard and pen, very thin, decent battery,expandable storage
What's not so great: win 8.1 is not pre-installed; you have to download and install it
First, let me say that my most stringent use for this tablet is Adobe Flash construct program, Dreamweaver, and PhotoShop. I was very concerned that the base model of this machine (the only model BB sells) wouldn't have the chops to run Adobe. I was wrong. It not only runs it but it runs quick. I am impressed. The price point on this unit is a steal. Just a little higher than a Samsung android tablet. Speaking of tablets this unit is only a little thicker than Sony's own Tablet Z but its a FULL BLOWN Win 8.1 PC. I also love the ir blaster on this unit. It comes with a Remote Control program as well. I think the screen quality will sell this tablet. That and a 128GB SSD.
Only bummer I found was that the keyboard is not backlit.

What's not so great: displa
First off, the NOTE 8 is a tablet that I have been waiting on and it disappoints me that I may very well return it on the grounds of the lacking display tech. I can take the lower resolution bc the PPI makes up for the non-HD screen. What is unacceptable for me is the amount of LCD light leak coming in around the bezel. It is distracting in the dark on an all black screen (ie viewing movies or Hulu). I feel this product was rushed and the omission of a quality display kinda breaks the deal for me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Full PC experience in tablet form factor
What's not so great: screen issues and build quality
Got one of these and booted it up and noticed a lot of LED light leak around the edges. That was fine and I expected some leak on this screen but I went on to find a dead pixel as well. Unacceptable. That cant be acceptable on a $1000 device. Microsoft needs to step up their quality control if they want to be a player in the tablet hardware world. If you want to see an amazing screen check out the Sony VAIO Duo 11. Zero light leak and full 1080p display. Its $200 more but worth a look if you're shopping. I haven't decided if I'm going to exchange it or return it. I bought the accidental damage protection but I didn't expect it to arrive defective. It's more than slightly annoying especially when there's such limited stock.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
