Lenovo Miix 510, 12.2-Inch Windows Laptop, 2 in 1 Laptop, (Intel Core i5, 2.5 GHz, 8 GB DDR4, 128 GB M.2 PCIe SSD, Windows 10 Home), Platinum, 80XE00H3US

Bought it because I needed to write on it using the stylus. Piece of junk doesn't work as advertised. Easier to write on paper.

Pretty nice little piece of machinery. The pen is a nice way to use the tablet without dirtying the screen. This was bought to replace an iPad, it is not a high power gaming or professional device. Emails and web browsing it works well.

I've had this tablet for a few weeks now, and I love it. I had a Surface 3, and needed a better processor/more memory for teaching purposes. I could not stomache the cost of the new surfaces, and after much research I settled on the MIIX 510. I have had no issues with eprformance thus far, and below I give more information on certain aspects of the tablet.Fan. As has been noted by others, this computer does have a fan and it seemingly needs to run for trivial operations. However, I am fine with it- if it runs and means the computer works, then all is good. It is annoying if you are trying to make a powerpoint video and you ar erecording yourself, as the sound quality is slightly diminished- but I have had no complaints from my students.Temperature. The computer does heat up more than my surface 3 ever did, but it is not uncomfortably warm.Display. The display is supposedly lower quality than the surface, but I have not noticed. I suspect only those who are working with photographs will.Pen. The pen that comes with it is not great. I spent a day trying to pair it and sorting it out, as there are no instructions in the box, and no instructions online (thanks lenovo- you usually are reliable). I gathered from other reviews that it is a wacom pen of some sort, and I have no idea waht generation it is (look at the lenovo website if you don't know what I am talking about). Needless to say, it felt cheap and as though it would scratch the surface. I was unable to pair my surface pen with the tablet, but I did not try very hard, so it may be possible. I opted to upgrade to the wacom bamboo ink, which is by far the best pen I have used. My handwriting is much neater on this tablet then it iever was on the surface with the surface pen, or on a previous lenovo laptop with the pen that came in the box.Battery. The battery life is not the greatest, but I have not had issues with running out of battery- though I am yet to travel with the tablet. An hour of lecturing which is connected to a wireless projector and makes use of Onenote and a browser and much inking drains maybe 12% battery life.Display adaptors. Note, this does not come with a mini-display port, but rather a USB-C. I have had no issues connecting to the microsoft wireless display adapter, or using hte USB-C port to connect to HDMI (using a non-lenovo branded adapter that I bought at our bookstore).Keyboard. I've had no issues with the right shift key, but I honestly do not type that much on the tablet. The keyboard feels sturdy and is an upgrade from teh surface 3 keyboard. The mouse pad is also really nice. As you would expect from lenovo, the keys are nice to touch and push. One thing I do not like is that if you want to put the display on backwards on the keyboard, where themagnet is that connects the two bulges, which worries me that eventually that connection will wear out. So if I am lecturing I usually just take off the keyboard.

I've had this tablet for almost a year now and a few weeks prior the warranty expiring two keys died on the keyboard. In an effort to repair the keyboard I brought it to a few different PC repair shops who all told me they could by me a new keyboard but couldn't help with Lenovo's warranty contact.Finally one shop called someone directly at Lenovo and they informed them that I needed to bring my computer to a "Lenovo Depot" to get it serviced. I figured that should be easy until I looked up "Lenovo Depots" in my area......1.....1 place within 100 miles. So I set of on a road trip to bring in my computer.After leaving it with the "Lenovo Depot"...who has ZERO association with Lenovo itself and can do NOTHING other than just send my computer off to Lenovo, I get a call from them a few days later letting me know that when I send my computer to Lenovo they will likely wipe my computer and asking if I was Ok with that. I asked if he could let them know that since this issue is with my keyboard (which can be removed from the tablet and attached to any other tablet) they shouldn't need to even access my computer, but his response was they have no control over what Lenovo does, they can only let them know what the issue is and they will handle it the way they see fit.so....TL;DR....if 3 weeks, a few hundred miles, having your personal data erased, not being able to contact ANYONE at Lenovo (not to mention the personal headache) to have two keys on your keyboard fixed....then maybe you'd like Lenovo as a company but otherwise I would stay as far away as possible.Never again will I buy another Lenovo product as long as I live.
