Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid: What Makes it So Special?

The Chinese tech giant features a unique 2-in-1 that blends a Microsoft Windows laptop with an Android tablet. This notebook features a Windows PC in the base, which houses the keyboard and key internal specs. On the other hand, the Android tablet part is the display half, which can be detached from the base.

Other notable features include Bluetooth 5.2 and WiFi 6E on both laptop and tablets, 13-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel front camera on the display half, 2-USB Type C ports, a combo audio Jack, and a hybrid USB Type-C port for the tablet.
