The Lenovo Phab 2 Pro makes a cool toy for developers seeking to unlock the potential of Google's Tango augmented-reality software. Too bad the hardware can't keep up.

The unlocked Lenovo Phab 2 Pro serves as more of a showcase for Google Tango than a case for augmented reality, but the future looks promising, and the phone is solid in its own right.

Lenovo Phab 2 Pro review: Exciting possibilities, unexciting phone

Lenovo's Phab 2 Pro is billed as "the world's first Tango-enabled smartphone." But after just one look at this massive device, it's hard to imagine anyone using it as a phone. It raises the question – what is Tango? Is it worth it?

The Lenovo Phab 2 Pro offers an unrivaled augmented-reality experience, a huge screen and solid battery life, but its sheer size is a turn-off.
