14 DAY TRIAL // Some of you might remember that back in 2011 Lenovo introduced a tablet dubbed the IdeaPad K1, which came with a 10.1-inch screen.
For some reason, it appears the company is looking to take the three-year-old model and offer customers a refresh. ArcTablet has noticed the Lenovo K1 HD (2014) has showed up in the GFX Benchmark database.
The tablet managed to score just 480 points in the benchmark Manhattan test, so this aspect indicates we’re going to see a pretty mid-range product here, but possibly running a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU, in the best case scenario.
The original Lenovo K1 came sporting a TFT capacitive touchscreen with a 1280 x 800 pixel resolution (149ppi) and drew power from a dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor. The tablet ran the aged Android 3.1 Honeycomb OS.
With the 2014 model, it’s pretty obvious we’re going to see the screen boast a full HD resolution (1920 x 1200), but other specifications remain in the dark.
It would make sense that Lenovo completely overhauls the slate in order to make it appealing for 2014 customers. For starters, it should trim the device, because back in 2011 it was pretty bulky. Of course, the device should run Android 4.4. KitKat, like any other tablet being launched today.
