Lenovo yesterday debuted a convertible, hybrid notebook, Thinkpad P40 Yoga, the first 2-in-1 laptop with workstation-level 3D hardware. The sketch-friendly P40 Yoga is light enough to use as a tablet for making sketches yet extremely powerful to hold Windows desktop programs for further modifications of those sketches.
The device features a 14-inch flip-back screen (2560x1440 or 1920x1080) with Wacom Active ES technology built-in, NVIDIA Quadro M500M graphics and an included Thinkpad Pen Pro Stylus that promises both 2048 levels of pressure and specially tuned software which gives a "pen to paper" feel. A slot is also there for storing the pen when it is not in use.
Focusing on power dynamics, the P40 is an Intel Skylake core i7 processor, up to 16 GB of RAM, 512 GB SSD, three USB 3.0 ports, HDMI 1.4, Mini DisplayPort 1.2, an Ethernet port, a micro SIM slot, and 4-in-1 SD card reader. ThinkPad P40 Yoga's starting weight is around 3.9 pounds. Some other bits include MIL spec durability, Lenovo's lift' n lock keyboard which helps in protecting the keys in tablet mode, and Lenovo's single-cord OneLink+ docking connection.
Besides Thinkpad P40 Yoga, Lenovo also announced the ThinkPad P50s mobile workstation and the powerful ThinkStation P310 desktop. The former is a lower cost version of the regular P50 that excavates the Xeon chip for core i7, while the latter can carry up to a Xeon E3 processor, 64 GB of RAM, and a variety of NVIDIA's pro graphics cards.
