Lenovo Creates Consumer Devices for Living a Hybrid Life, Simply

Unveils new portfolio of consumer IdeaPad™ Chromebooks plus L-series USB-C® docking monitors with mobile and modular tech

Living ‘hybrid’ can get complicated, and it’s more important than ever to stay connected. When it comes to choosing new accessible consumer PCs and monitors with enough power to get you through the day, it can feel as if you’re drowning in a sea of features. Leaving you asking, ‘Is this the right combination of devices for me?’ Lenovo™ believes that what separates ‘good’ from ‘great’ product design is a clear focus on just those smarter, simple details that can make a big difference in people’s lives, convenience and digital well-being.

Lenovo is introducing a new lineup of affordable personal devices for the modern home office, home classroom and beyond, including, two stylish laptops – the new IdeaPad 5i Chromebook (14”, 6) and more versatile IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook (13”, 6) 2-in-1, and the grab-and-go Lenovo L15 Mobile Monitor purpose-built with dual USB-C ports and innovative single cable ‘daisy chain’ power pass-through function for multi monitor configuration in small spaces.
