Lenovo Unleashes A Slew Of Chromebooks, Laptops, And Tablets To Close Out 2022

Lenovo says the IdeaPad 5i Chromebook is its first 16-inch laptop that, as you’d expect, is powered by Chrome OS rather than Windows. The model is offered with a couple of different configuration options: buyers can get an Intel Pentium 8505 or an Intel Core i3-1215U, 4GB or 8GB of RAM, and either 64GB or 128GB of storage. Other notable features include a 1080p webcam, dual 2-watt stereo speakers, MaxxAudio tech, plus two USB-C and two USB-A ports, an audio jack, a microSD slot, and a Kensington Nano Security slot.

The 16-inch display has a 2.5K resolution, and though the brightness is only decent at 350 nits, it boasts a 120Hz refresh rate. That’s more impressive than the Full HD version, which has 300 nits brightness and a 60Hz refresh rate. Summing up the features is Bluetooth 5, Wi-Fi, and a hinge that opens to 180 degrees.

The Android tablets boast similar specs, with the second-generation Tab P11 tablet sporting a 2K-resolution 11.5-inch display, 400 nits brightness, and up to a 120Hz refresh rate. The model also offers up to 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage; it is powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 octa-core processor, there’s a 7700 mAh battery, and a four-speaker setup alongside dual microphones and support for Dolby Atmos. As expected, the P11 Pro is a bit more powerful with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, the MediaTek Kompanio 1300T processor, 8200 mAh battery, 2.5K OLED 11.2-inch screen with Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support, and an optional Precision Pen 3 and keyboard with trackpad.
