In a review for PC Pro, Barry Collins wrote, "So what to make of the Miix 10? It has several advantages over the Surface Pro, not least when it comes to paying off the credit card bill at the end of the month. The absence of a touchpad or stylus is a major oversight, and renders the Windows desktop near inoperable without outside assistance from a Bluetooth mouse, which adds to the weight and cost. Yet we remain enamoured with Lenovo's Miix 10. It’s a capable performer for work, and for sitting back on the sofa and keeping an eye on Twitter feeds, and it's light enough for both purposes. It falls short of an award, but by a margin slimmer than its slender frame." [13]
