About the Lenovo 8
Lenovo 20BN001RUK is listed in the tablets category. The recorded specifications include display diagonal: 21.1 cm (8.3"); internal storage capacity: 128 GB; operating system installed: Windows 8.1 Pro. This entry covers manufacturer code 20BN001RUK. Specifications relate to this exact source record; other editions or packages may differ.
The 21.1 cm (8.3") display is specified at 1920 x 1200 pixels. Consider these together: a larger screen provides more physical space, while resolution determines the number of pixels available. Neither specification establishes brightness, colour accuracy or motion quality.
This configuration lists 2 GB of memory and 128 GB of storage. Memory supports active applications; storage holds software and files. Check upgradeability separately, because a capacity figure does not establish whether either component can be replaced.
