Lenovo has been teasing a new Yoga tablet on Weibo for the past few days. According to the official profile, it will come with reinvented stand mechanism and will have HDMI support, acting as a screen for gaming consoles.
The new stand will not be a plaque, but
more like sticks from reinforced metal that would allow the tablet to stay
upwards, to hang above the stove (when the customer is cooking) or just to be
slightly lifted from the table.
The images also revealed support for a stylus
with 4,096 pressure-sensitive levels for clearer lines during drawing. There
will be one USB-C port for charging on the tubular part of the device, as well
as a port, likely another USB-C, for connectivity. If the Yoga Pad Pro really
can act as a secondary screen with a simple HDMI to USB cable, it would be a
great addition to laptops and other home screens in the current situation of
working from home.
Lenovo hasn’t said anything about a launch
date, but we expect the Yoga Pad Pro to be launched very soon, and that’s when
we’ll know all the details.
