The product, explained
About the Lenovo IdeaPad Miix 520
Lenovo 20M3003DUK is listed in the tablets category. The recorded specifications include display diagonal: 31 cm (12.2"); internal storage capacity: 256 GB; operating system installed: Windows 10 Pro; mobile network connection: Yes. This entry covers manufacturer code 20M3003DUK. Specifications relate to this exact source record; other editions or packages may differ.
The 31 cm (12.2") 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 8 GB of memory and 256 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.
