One of the most interesting projects that Lenovo unveiled recently is the 13-inch Yoga Tablet 2 Pro. As the company’s superstar product engineer, Asthon Kutcher has explained that this is a device designed for media consumption.

And in order to produce an effect, the company has outfitted the tablet with its own pico-projector, so users can turn basically any wall into a 50-inch movie screen.

Now the company has posted the first official video teaser for the device, highlighting some of its use modes, including picture taking, content sharing, movie streaming and more.

In the video, we’re also shown the new mode of use dubbed “hang,” which will allow users to hang the tablet anywhere, provided they find a hook.

The slate offers an advanced resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels, so both media and games should look pretty gorgeous. Under the hood, Lenovo has slipped in an Intel Atom Z3745 Bay Trail processor, which is in charge of keeping onboard things moving.

Despite being quite big, at 0.5 inches / 12.7 mm in profile and tipping the scales at 2.1 lbs / 0.9kg, the tablet remains portable.

The current model runs Android 4.4 KitKat out of the box, but Lenovo also hinted that a Windows (maybe 10) variant would be launched at some point.
