Both Yoga Tab 3 8-incher and 10-incher have Adreno 304 for GPU but the Pro version has an interesting twist in it. According to the reports it is the first device to have Intel AirmontSoC and making it as the first and only Android to have one—at least for now.
For the displays, the first two were endowed with IPS LCDs with 1280×800 pixels resolution; whereas, the pro version sports an IPS LCD with 2560×1600 pixels resolution. While there isn’t much to say about the non-pros we can proceed into highlighting the cool factors within the body of Yoga Tab 3 Pro.
Remarkably the Pro was installed with 4 front-facing speakers with Dolby’s Atmos 3D surround sound processing technology. It also sports a built-in pico projector that can give cast 70-inch images with the brightness of 50 nits. The projector can be rotated using gesture controls but details about how-to’s are not yet released.
Don’t get excited just yet for the Yoga Tab 3 flavors are yet to be released by December this year although the prices are still unknown save for the Pro version which is priced at $499 (Wi-Fi model) and $599 (LTE model.)
