San Francisco: Lenovo brought out a big gun today at their Tech World event in San Francisco. With a whopping 6.4-inch QHD display, four cameras and sensors for augmented reality and sensing plus a bevy of flagship smartphone features, this gargantuan device is the first to showcase Google and Lenovo's Tango technology which makes smartphones capable of navigating with spaces using sensors.
In the above demo, the Phab 2 Pro is used to play a game of virtual dominos and shows just how accurate the digital constructs overlaid on real world surfaces can be. The Lenovo Phab 2 Pro is one of the largest and heaviest phablets we've had a chance to try but it does offer some unique capabilities. It comes in the fall for US $499.

Potentially game changing,Tango devices built in unison by Google and Lenovo elevate what smartphones can do as well as extend their functionality beyond two dimensions. During the demos here, we saw how Tango can generate graphics and characters into reality, how it can measure and help approximate 3D dimensions. Another demo showed how, using an app for Lowe's furniture store, it is possible to virtually redesign a home's interior before even purchasing fixures, rugs or surfaces.
