Massive tablet would be for use around the home, Lenovo says.

Lenovo is working on a 23in tablet device - but if that sounds a bit unwieldy, the firm doesn't expect it to leave the house.

The massive tablet would be moved around the home as needed, and docked to be used as a more standard computer.

"We think that there is potential for a 23-inch tablet," a Lenovo spokesperson told TechRadar. "We'd have to take care of battery life and we are working to get the weight down."

"It's obviously not for full mobility use, but it could be moved from room to room in the house and used with a full keyboard, or as a television. Or you could lay it on a table top and use it for family games."

Lenovo hopes to have the device ready to launch this year, according to the report. The company couldn't be reached for comment at the time of publishing.
