As can be seen between Lenovo YOGA TAB 3 8-inch and YOGA TAB
3 10-inch the differences only lay in the screen size and battery capacity.

YOGA TAB 3 8-inch and YOGA TAB 3 10-inch are now orchestrated by Qualcomm
Snapdragon 212 SoC. The other updates are both have now been supported by the
Dolby Atmos audio technology and come with only one 8 megapixels camera.

Lenovo YOGA TAB 3 Pro 10-inch is being the most interesting
among the three. In addition to bringing an integrated projector and is
prepared as a successor of Lenovo YOGA TAB 2 Pro, the tablet also gets quite a
lot improvements.
Unlike Lenovo YOGA TAB 2 Pro which had 13-inch screen, the
third generation comes with more compact screen size, i.e.10 inch with a
resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. With a smaller screen size but a same
resolution, Lenovo YOGA TAB 3 Pro 10-inch will look sharper than the older version.
The update can also be seen in the projector sector. If

now the projector of Lenovo YOGA TAB 3 Pro 10-inch is shifted slightly to the

the position of the projector according to the needs. In addition, this
projector can project images up to the size of 70 inches. Furthermore, Lenovo
YOGA TAB 3 Pro 10-inch is now equipped with 4 front facing speakers that have
