New Ultrawide Monitor
The new Lenovo ThinkVision P49w-30 Monitor is a very good looking ultrawide monitor with a 49-inch colour rich display. It is curved and hopes to drive your productivity to new heights. I believe this would be a good companion for creative professionals and those that do a lot of productivity-focused jobs.
The New Ultrabook
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon 11th Gen ultrabook is a beast of a business machine that carries a lot of power in a lightweight build. It has an excellent 2.8K OLED display, and rocks the recent 13th Gen Intel EVO processors.

On its base, there are a lot of port extensions, including some USB ports, HDMI ports, and some USB Type C ports. It also offers a wireless charging dock and a webcam. It could be all you need to transform your working desk into something more techy. According to Lenovo, it is a 5-in-1 working solution.

With a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor under the hood and Gorrilla glass Victus protecting the display, you can't go wrong with this one.
A Product for the Metaverse
This is something innovative that would find real use in the metaverse. Meet the Lenovo Project Chronos, which is a body tracker that can be used to fully track a person's movements in the virtual world. The unique thing about Project Chronos is that it is hands-free, unlike other options currently available.
How About an All-In-One PC
Meet the Lenovo Yoga 9i, an all-in-one PC that features an Intel i9 Gen CPU, an NVIDIA RTX 40 series GPU, and a unique design, paired with a 32-inch 4K display. It would definitely be a delight to use, as well as a delight to just stare at.
The Amazing 2-in-1, The Star of the Show
Here is the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i that combines two stunning OLED displays into one product. You can use it as a laptop or a workstation with two horizontally or vertically stacked displays. It's an incredible device that I'd love to try out.
A Smart Paper?

It hopes to provide a traditional note-taking experience in a smart-device, making you feel like you are using a pen on a book. It is a 10.3 inch device that could be a nice companion for students, readers, and writers.
Let's Go Extreme
Here is a gargantuan Android tablet called the Lenovo Tab Extreme with a 14.5-inch 3K OLED display and a powerful Mediatek Dimensity 9000 System on Chip (SoC). It should probably come with a keyboard, trackpad, and pen in the box and cost about 1200 USD. It is a healthy competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8 Ultra and the 12+ inch iPad Pro.
How About a Gaming Book?
Meet the Lenovo Pro 7i an AI-tuned gaming laptop powered by the latest 13th Gen Intel Processors and a 40 series NVIDIA graphics card. Built with a massive cooling systems, and a massive 99 watt hour battery, it is every boys desire. '

Some Twisty Things
Here is the Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Twist. It is a great notebook with a twist. Yea! You can literally twist the display to reveal another coloured e-ink display behind the primary display. Even with the laptop closed, the e-ink display behind it can be used for some activities. What a good twist!
Think About Your Vision
With the Lenovo ThinkVision T27hv-30 Monitor, Lenovo is on a mission to own the workplace. This is a Microsoft Teams-certified display that packs a bunch of extensions in it, with a wide array of USB ports, Ethernet and Audio jack. Some monitors are simply greater than others.
You Love the Mac Mini?
If you love the size of the Apple Mac Mini, you will be attracted to the Lenovo ThinkCentre neo 50q. With the latest from Intel running these machines, we expect performance similar to Mac Mini or even better. This is a powerful but simple tabletop machine.
Folding Machines
This isn't exactly new, but it is one of their recent impressive machines. Meet the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold a 16+ inch machine running Intel 12th Gen Processors and capable of folding its impressive and colour-rich OLED display.
That's All
Lenovo has built some impressive products for 2023, and I am impressed. I just hope to see who else has a better offering. We still have some other brands to visit, the likes of LG, Samsung, Sony, and more.
