14 DAY TRIAL // Lenovo is one of the companies that are fully committed to Microsoft’s ARM push, so it’s no surprise that one of the latest devices it launches comes with a Snapdragon chip.
More specifically, Lenovo has developed a new tablet specifically aimed at the education sector and which combines Windows 11 and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c platform.
The result should be increased productivity with enhanced battery life without any impact on device performance. But while on paper everything sounds pretty cool, it remains to be seen if everything is as smoothly as promised in the real-life too.
As expected, the tablet also comes with a detachable keyboard specifically supposed to help increase productivity when needed.
In addition to the Snapdragon 7c, the tablet comes with a 10.1-inch LCD panel with a 16:10 aspect ratio covered in Gorilla Glass. The chip is paired with up to 8GB RAM, with the tablet offering a maximum of 128 GB of eMMC storage.
Going on sale in April
Given it’s aimed at students, it also comes with cameras front and back.
“Lenovo 10w Tablet is ideal for younger students with its ruggedized rubber bumper and Corning® Gorilla Glass offering better protection for daily wear and tear. The detachable keyboard converts the tablet into a 10.1-inch laptop allowing students to type documents, take online exams or participate in collaborative engagements with fellow students,” Lenovo says.
“An optional garaged pen further enhances interaction as learners can directly annotate on screen, or highlight relevant subject matter through computer-assisted training tools. The 16:10 aspect ratio FHD display offers a better form factor for reading, and front and world-facing cameras facilitate remote learning and photo-taking on field trips.”
The device is projected to go on sale in April, and its pricing will start at $329 when ordered with the optional keyboard.
