ugh, why didnt they come out with this before Christmas, I just bought my parents both a new laptops and new tablets....😭
I appreciate the mad scientists over at Lenovo who keep coming out with these oddball - but very cool - alternate form-factors and hybrid computers. I don't know if this is going to sell well, but it's definitely an interesting concept.
The eGPU thing, I'd rather invest in separate desktop and laptop. The only use case I can think of is if the software/data you want to use on both systems does not easily sync across different systems, so you can't have separate systems.
I COULD USE THIS! I've been wondering if it were possible to dual boot Android with a desktop OS to reduce my need for a laptop and a tablet, and this might be just the product I need! If there comes a model in the future sporting an AMD APU and at least a 120hz OLED display, that would be awesome!
Hope Apple is taking note of this. Ipad pro + Mac OS when connected to magic keyboard - A perfect 12.9" computing solution.
That Android/Windows laptop is a neat idea! I have questions.
Since the screen portion and keyboard portion each have their own battery, do they also share power when connected?
When you switch between the Android and Windows functions, when one mode is in standby, is it consuming extra power because it has the other OS in the background?
Minor spelling oopsie of Hybrid in the thumbnail
The EGPU needs to be sold separately. I want that for my GPD Win Max 2 with OCulink.
I would have been excited about that a decade ago but nowadays I really don't know why you would need an Android tablet anymore when Windows tablets work so well.
So a updated and much very quicker version of quick start/Express Gate.
More accurately Latitude ON
The connection on thinkbook, is it a standard Oculink?
Can we use a different Oculink GPU dock?
what bandwidth is the arcu link?
is it possible that we can bought only the headless laptop
65% more computer, per computer
It's an interesting device but what use cases have they actually pointed to that it helps with? If you were developing for Android, there are easier tools/emulators to test apps without needing to transfer to a completely separate device.
This'd be great for people like me. I have a mixed ecosystem with propriety vendor tools from both Droid and Windows. I'm an edge case, I grant
So double of everything? Love the idea, hate the waste
You spelled hybrid wrong in the thumbnail.
Interesting ideas, but I've had one Lenovo laptop, and it'll be the last - the bloatware and the custom, cut-down bios are quite difficult to live with.
Very interesting
Is it 5g compatible?
There needs to be a newer USB connector that has more lanes cuz 4 isn't really enough for most people. Many higher end GPUs of all generations bottleneck because lets say you use 4 gen 5 lanes but put in a 3090ti or 4090. You'll end up with only 4 gen 4 lanes, not 8 gen 4 lanes sadly. Unless you have docks that can have a switch for that, thunderbolt/USB4 ain't cutting it.
Do you smell what Lenovo is cooking 😂
I think a regular tablet paired with a wireless keyboard is a lot more aesthetically pleasing and more practical. Too bad no one makes a PC grade tablet with a practical desktop stand, a nice speaker, and quality wireless keyboard. Adding firmware OS has been done before, and has never really been well received. Maybe since it's pretty easy to make dual boot, to a secondary OS of your choice, or to boot to an Android USB stick.
If it had 5g/LTE connectivity I'd be all over it
Bunch of Intel atom tablets from China back in the day did the dual OS
Ya i think I'd take a hard pass on the ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid especially at it's price cuz my $2k 11th Gen Framework Laptop w/it's 2TB M.2 & 64GB is more powerful not to mention fully upgradeable right from being able to change practically every part inside the shell of my laptop including it's screen.
I wonder if it's possible for a framework owner to not regurgitate the entire brochure when they mention they own a framework 💀
Windows users got Apple fans foaming with this half-azzz connection.
Oculink is not hot plug compatible
