14 DAY TRIAL // Rotatable screens on notebook seem to be on their way of becoming main stream as more and more laptop manufacturers are taking up this design feat.
This is the case of Lenovo which according to recent information will be adding a new 10-inch touchscreen notebook to its already famous Flex line, says UmPcPortal.
According to them, the device has already been spotted in UAE and Singapore going by the name Flex 10 and, judging by its looks, it is the smallest Flex model to have been rolled out so far. So those valuing portability more than anything should hear us out.
The new Lenovo Flex 10 features a 10.1-inch touch-enabled screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. In the processor department, the company offers four Bay Trail-based alternatives.
• 1.46 GHz Intel Celeron N2805 dual-core CPU with 4.3W TDP with 2GB of RAM • 2 GHz Intel Celeron N2810 dual-core with 7.5W TDP with 2GB of RAM • 1.6 GHz Intel Celeron N2910 quad-core with 7.5W TDP with 2GB of RAM • 2 GHz ntel Pentium N3510 quad-core with 7.5W TDP with 4GB of RAM
Other specifications for the little Flex include USB 3.0 plus USB 2.0 ports, HDMI out, headset jack, stereo speakers, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. To get an idea about the laptops proportions, it weighs 2.64 pounds / 1.1 kg and is 0.82 inches/ 20 mm thick.
The Flex 10 is perfect for those individuals who like to blend work and play on the same device. When you have to rely on the keyboard to be productive and draft your work papers, the device can be used in full laptop mode.
But when you’re done and would prefer to switch to touch-enabled operations like browsing or enjoying a movie, the screen can be rotated, so the keyboard is not in your way. The Flex 10 comes with Windows 8.1 pre-installed.
A bit disappointing is the battery life, with Lenovo promising up to 4 lousy hours of life force. According to sources, the Lenovo Flex 10 is available in some local retail locations for a price tag of about €340 / $461. The device can also be spotted in the official Lenovo adobe.
