don't like it.

Nice job at making an expensive product look like a budget tablet. Its a shame as the specifications are awesome.

Also the pricing is aimed exactly at the iPad. Why?

I'd have to disagree. I think it looks very elegant and simplistic.

I personally think it just looks like an iPad. It always bothers me when android products just look very generic. Android stuff can look amazing and different (I'm even getting something android based in the new year!). This, to me, just looks generic and cheap.

Generic yes, but I don't know about cheap. Oh well thats just my opinion ;)
 
Looks nice to me, if it was 16:9 I might just buy one but i'm not investing in any 4:3 tech in 2014, f* that. When are people going to learn, go native 1080p or go home.

It looks like a very nice tablet (specs and design imo) but why did they need to aim it a the iPad Air? I liked that Nexus devices used to offer a very good price/performace ratio, at this price however I'd rather get an iPad, it's the same with the enormous Nexus 6

Aspect ratio doesn't do that much.. Surface 3 is 1440p screen with a 4:3 ratio and it still looks amazing. For smaller screens a lower aspect ratio makes more sense. You don't want everything super tiny.
 
4:3 is a step back from the 16:9 1080p on the Nexus 7. The res is higher on the 9 and I have no doubts the IQ and screen are better than the 7, but video content and web browsing isn't going to look as good on a 4:3 screen compared to a 16:9.
 
The android device I'm getting has a built in projector and a 1400p screen. Now thats what I want from an android device. Daftness.

The whole projector thing sounds a bit gimmicky though. Im sure lenovo will pull it off decently though.

Yep, i'm sure I'll never actually use the projector sober as well but hey, its cheaper than a normal ultrabook and I don't need anything powerful and portable, just portable :cool:
