Lenovo brings their entire catalogue to the Strip
Lenovo has been hard at work as it seems its entire catalogue – ranging for tablets to smartphones – have had an upgrade. Those as well as brand new All-in-Ones (AiOs) and notebooks – all these and more had been on display at CES 2015. Without further ado, let’s go through Lenovo’s mountain of technology.
Razor Thin Carbon
Lenovo had not overlooked Ultrabooks as it has been hard at work with its ThinkPad line. First off is the ThinkPad X1 Carbon – specifically the third generation version for this particular Ultrabook. Announced as the ‘lightest 14in performance notebook in the world’, the new X1 Carbon comes with advanced options like a super bright Full HD display and a PCIe Solid State Drive. All that while still weighing under 1.5kgs and putting out a longer battery life than its predecessors. The Ultrabook itself is powered by an Intel 5th Generation Core CPU – the primary reason it can offer such long lasting performance efficiently.
Yoga Revised
What is a Lenovo showcase if it doesn’t feature the YOGA series of convertible tablets. CES saw a slew of new YOGA iterations that is made for various purposes. First on the list is the new YOGA 3. Coming in either 11in or 14in models, the YOGA 3 provides a bigger screen while still maintaining a slim form factor. The trademark YOGA hinge design is retained here while being powered with an Intel Broadwell CPU.
If business performance is a necessity, then the ThinkPad YOGA is tailor-made for you. Built for small offices, home office types, and students – it comes in 12in, 14in and 15in sizes. While it maintains the form factor of the original YOGA, it also adds a few new features, such as the new Intel RealSense 3D camera system and Lenovo SHAREit app.
Lastly, the 8in YOGA Tablet 2 with Windows had been displayed on the CES showfloor as well. Continuing the tradition of YOGA tablets, the YOGA Tablet 2 with Windows rocks the AnyPen Technology, allowing any pen or pencil to become a handwriting tool. This removes the requirement of having a stylus on hand. Lasting up to 15 hours on a single charge, the YOGA Tablet 2 with Windows comes packed with an Intel Atom CPU.
Flexibility and Portability
ThinkPads and YOGAs aren’t the only devices on show as Lenovo brought out its new FLEX 3 as well. An ideal entry convertible notebook, the FLEX 3 now comes with a 360° hinge and comes powered with either an Intel 5th Generation CPU or the newly released Pentium processor. If conventional notebooks are more in demand – then the thin, powerful and stylish 14in S41 will be more appropriate. Measuring just 19.5mm thin and weighing less than 1.8kg, this new thin and light S Series notebook comes with a Broadwell-type Generation Intel Core i7 processor, an NVIDIA GeForce Graphics, and 1TB SSHD.
Handheld Augmentation
Moving on to the smartphone section, Lenovo introduced a series of new smartphones and some gadgets. First up is the Lenovo P90. Designed to provide the power and performance that ensures users can go fast and get things done, the P90 is the first smartphone to utilise the combination of the newest 64-bit Intel Atom Z3560 processor with an Intel 5-mode XMM 7262 modem.
The Vibe series also received a new entry as Lenovo unveiled the VIBE X2 Pro. Sporting the same eye-catching, award-winning layered design of the Lenovo X2, this limited edition smartphone brings craftsmanship, power, and style to the next level with its sleek, lightweight full-metal body. The VIBE X2 Pro packs a 5.3in Full HD display and a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon Octa-Core processor, allowing it to deliver jaw-dropping performance while maintaining a long-lasting battery life.
