Screen and sound

As the other tablets based on Atom, Lynx has standard 1,366x768pixel resolution, that doesn’t mean the image quality is commonplace. YouTube movies and clips transmitted on the 11.6inch screen looks vibrant, with the precise color tones and good details. As for the competitive Clover Trail tablets, Lynx benefits from the IPS tech, delivering wide viewing angle. We have no problem when looking at the images and text on the screen even from the far left and right corner. Being a touch screen, the 5-capacitive-point touch-screen works smoothly, detecting all the swipes and taps we made. Executing the common Windows 8 gestures such as swiping from the right side to pop up the Charms bar is easy to recognize. We even have enough guts to say that this screen is faster than some of the other screens we have tested, because we don’t face any situation for having to repeat one gesture on Lynx.

We have increased the volume to 100% and play some hits in the top 40 to give a test to the small set of speakers mounted on the side of Lynx, and the result is as expected: the sound is powerful enough to fill a small room, and sounds a little muffled, but not being distorted or too small. We highly appreciate the speaker grille not sitting on the back of the tablet, which leads to more muffled sound.

The benchmark results have never told the full story, and that never becomes realer to the Windows 8 tablet based on Atom, which runs 1.8GHz Intel Atom Z2760 processor along with 2GB RAM. Most of such devices we tested had more 50 score than the rivals in the PCMark 7 and 3DMark 06 tests. Lynx brought back the almost similar scores compared to Dell Latitude 10. In the ATTO drive test, the tablet reached the max read/write score of 81MB/s and 35MB/s. graphics capability, as well as general performance, is almost identical all over the products in this category, and you won’t have any problem when playing the regular games. Cut the Rope and other games downloaded from Windows Store ran smoothly, but didn’t hope for World of Warcraft or anything needing higher frame rate.

Lynx rarely has problem during our trial-use time, but it has deplorable moments. For example, there’re time we woke it up from sleep mode, the icons and the texts on the screen were blurred and the screen was frozen within a few seconds.in another occasion, the optional playback menu in the video Windows 8 app only appeared as an empty window, even when we reset the app. However, within 90% of trial-use time, we have no problem swapping between the apps, browsing web with many tabs opening and watch movies on Netflix.

When we rant the battery test, including playing a locally stored video continuously with WiFi on and brightness set at 65%, Lynx lasted 6 hours 10 minutes. It’s shorter than the expected time of 8 hours of Lenovo, but our test was heavier than daily use. With the tablet attaching to the dock, which included a built-in battery, we realized 9 hours 24 minutes of running. In terms of timer, Lynx was inferior to the other Atom tablet we had tested; such as Dell Latitude 10, creating an impressive 16 hours with dock.

Talking about battery life, you will need the companion AC adapter to power Lynx; when we tried to charge with the accompanying micro-USB cables, it’s impossible to charge the tablet. We had successfully charged other devices through micro-USB, despite bringing the small exclusive adapter of Lynx along wouldn’t be a thing (just make sure that you didn’t lose it).
