A poor peek at the wonderful world of AR

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.
