Lenovo 5G laptop and Z6 Pro 5G Explorer Edition



5G is the theme at this year’s edition of MWC Shanghai. China Mobile kicked things off yesterday with its 5G+ Initiative at a pre-MWC event while brands like Vivo announced its 5G plans. Today, Lenovo announced the world’s first 5G laptop as well as the Lenovo Z6 Pro 5G Explorer Edition.

This is the world’s first 5G laptop. It is powered by the Snapdragon 8cx processor which is clocked at 2.75GHz. The rest of the specs are not mentioned which isn’t surprising as it appears Lenovo just wants to show that 5G will also be coming to laptops in the future.


The Lenovo Z6 Pro 5G Explorer Edition is powered by the Snapdragon 855 processor and has a Snapdragon X50 Modem. It keeps its 6.39-inch AMOLED display with a waterdrop notch and packs a 4000mAh battery just like the standard Z6 Pro. In a nutshell, only the components needed for 5G differentiates it from the LTE version. However, there is a 5G logo beside the rear cameras.

Promotional images show the phone has a see-through back but live images show otherwise. There is no info on when the Lenovo Z6 Pro 5G Explorer Edition will launch and how much it will cost.
