We’ve seen our fair share of novel all-in-one tablet PCs over the last few months, but the Lenovo Horizon 27 trumps them all. Since its size puts it firmly out of tablet territory, Lenovo’s had to dub it a table PC. Its party trick is being able to lie co...

Lenovo's IdeaCentre Horizon may fit our definition of an all-in-one PC , but it's sufficiently different to enter a class of its own: that of table PC. Marketed as a "table PC", the 27in IdeaCentre Horizon is part desktop PC , part tablet PC . A small st...
Part all-in-one, part tablet, the IdeaCentre Horizon folds flat into a unique family entertainment system. Build quality is high, but connectivity is poor and our sample also suffered from poor hard drive performance.Tags:Desktop PCs,Smart HomeBest prices...

The latest all-in-ones look a lot like huge tablets, right? An internal battery adds portability to Lenovo's 27” IdeaCentre Horizon, but is this cool concept still functional as a desktop, or does the push toward mobility sacrifice too much performance?...
Lenovo's IdeaCentre Horizon costs far less than Dell's XPS One 2710, and more affordable parts often translate to better value, even in the face of performance deficits. If that's the case here, then the IdeaCentre's portability is going to be icing on th...

You're reading this correctly, Lenovo has already released a twenty seven inch tablet. At 27″ you can make the argument it's more a table than a tablet. Well, it is a table, and yes we've heard all the jokes. We put this beast of a device to the test of p...

With all of the attention that tablets, ultrabooks and hybrids have received following the release of Windows 8, you'd be forgiven to let slip from memory an entirely different class of computer that has a lot to gain from Microsoft's new touch-enabled op...
Novel concept that we'd like to continue to develop. Decent graphics performance, tenfinger touch support, included touchbased games for use in tabletop mode with friends, internal battery for 'some' inhouse portability.
Slow hard drive, only two USB ports, heavy and bulky. Display could be better.
Lenovo thoughtfully included a discrete GPU in the Horizon which is more than enough to play included touch-based titles like Monopoly and Draw Race 2. The system was also able to handle some older mainstream games without issue although you'll need to bu...
