Lenovo unveiled its most unconventional laptop yet, the ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 
Hybrid, which is essentially two computers fused together, allowing the 
device to run both Windows and Android. 

Revealed at CES 2024, the latest addition to Lenovo's ThinkBook Plus 
portfolio combines a Windows laptop base system and a tablet that can 
function independently or in conjunction, enabling users to switch between 
Windows 11 and Android 13 with ease. 

The laptop part, known as the ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid Station, can be 
used independently from the tablet when connected to an external display - so 
you can still use it even if the tablet goes missing. The Android device, the 
ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid Tab, can also be detached for standalone use. Two 
devices for the price of one 

The Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid is designed for a range of users, 
including media content creators, designers, logistics professionals, and 
financial analysts. Its dual functionality allows it to handle virtually any 
mainstream task in a variety of formats. When the Tab is attached, it 
delivers a vivid 14-inch, 2.8K OLED display. 

The Hybrid Station is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU and Intel Arc 
graphics, with 32GB of LPDDR5x RAM and a 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD. It has two USB-C 
(Thunderbolt 4) ports and an audio jack. 

The Android tablet is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor 
with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It has one USB-C port. 

Both devices have long-lasting batteries that intelligently manage power 
delivery, and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity. 

The Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid is expected to be available starting 
Q2 2024, with a starting price of $1,999. More from TechRadar Pro Lenovo
