While portability and mobility are key, the other side of this reality is that the hybrid worker and student are spending less time in offices and classrooms, and more time at home. This evolving consumer behavior has inspired Lenovo\u2019s new personal devices designed for the modern family, including Lenovo\u2019s first 16-inch Chromebook, the new&nbsp;Lenovo IdeaPad 5i Chromebook,&nbsp;and two new additions to its premium Lenovo Tab P11 tablet lineup: the&nbsp;Lenovo Tab P11 (2<sup>nd<\/sup>Gen)&nbsp;and the decked-out&nbsp;Lenovo Tab P11 Pro (2<sup>nd<\/sup>Gen).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sudden switch to remote work and learning two years ago quickly increased people\u2019s reliance on technology, but it also ushered in a new and improved wave of remote everything \u2013 fitness, concerts, cinema, cooking, even dance parties. People learned to do everything they used to go out for, right in their own homes using their technology. Signs point to those behaviors persisting past the pandemic as consumers&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pitneybowes.com\/us\/blog\/pandemic-hobbies.html\">plan to spend more time on hobbies<\/a>&nbsp;like home improvement&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/us\/en\/pages\/consumer-business\/articles\/food-service-restaurant-business-trends-post-covid.html\">many expressing intentions of cooking at home more<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOver the last two years, personal devices became the lifeline of people\u2019s lives, the windows to the world, and often times a safe space to \u2018get away\u2019,\u201d said Johnson Jia, Senior Vice President, Intelligent Devices Group\u2019s Global Innovation Center, Lenovo. \u201cNow, as consumers adapt to yet another new reality, their expectations of the technology they rely on are evolving, as well. The new Lenovo Chromebook and tablets we\u2019ve introduced today are built to support people on the go, and importantly \u2013 to serve them in new and exciting ways while at home.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>All for One and One for All \u2013 IdeaPad 5i Chromebook<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just right for the entire family, the&nbsp;<strong>IdeaPad 5i Chromebook<\/strong>&nbsp;offers a quality experience with the power for every member of the family to get what they need done.

For many, the need to prioritize one\u2019s own wellness has become paramount,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/drwaynejonas.com\/covidsurvey\/\">one study<\/a>&nbsp;revealing that 80% of respondents intend to be more mindful about practicing self-care in the future. Yet, despite best efforts, carving out that elusive \u201cme-time\u201d can be the hardest part of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research conducted by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/swnsdigital.com\/us\/2022\/06\/how-environmentally-friendly-is-your-self-care-routine\/\">SWNS\u2019 OnePoll<\/a>&nbsp;discovered nearly half of adults only feel relaxed for less than 40 minutes per day, many choosing to spend this valuable time to themselves watching a show or movie, listening to music or a podcast, or exercising. No matter how that time is spent, making the most of it is essential \u2013 and turning to the new&nbsp;<strong>Lenovo Tab P11 (2<sup>nd<\/sup>&nbsp;Gen)<\/strong>&nbsp;or its elevated cousin, the&nbsp;<strong>Lenovo Tab P11 Pro (2<sup>nd<\/sup>&nbsp;Gen)<\/strong>&nbsp;can be just what\u2019s needed.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/news.lenovo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/09a_Lenovo_Tab_P11_Pro_Hero_Tab_Keyboard_Pen_Right-e1661964104282.png\" alt=\"Lenovo Tab P11 Pro\" class=\"wp-image-21119\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A powerhouse device, the&nbsp;<strong>Lenovo Tab P11 Pro (2<sup>nd<\/sup>&nbsp;Gen)<\/strong>&nbsp;with Android 12&nbsp;offers an immersive, multimedia experience.

Adding &nbsp;HDR10+ support, this tablet is an all-access pass to crystal-clear visuals as users stream the night away. Boasting a 600 nit screen brightness, expansive 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and a dynamic contrast ratio, getting lost in the details of a favorite show or movie will be too easy, as each pixel comes to life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the casual gamer, 120Hz fast refresh rate and 360Hz touch response speeds take the stress out of on-tablet gaming as ultra-smooth graphics glide across the screen, allowing users to keep up with the action. No matter how it\u2019s used though, the sounds emanating from the four-speaker system from JBL and Dolby Atmos provide spatial audio that connects users more deeply with their favorite content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Offering 120% more power than the previous generation, the Lenovo Tab P11 Pro (2<sup>nd<\/sup>&nbsp;Gen) features the MediaTek&#x2122; Kompanio 1300T octa-core processor and up to 8GB RAM memory.

Included is a ThinkPad-inspired detachable keyboard with a built-in trackpad for efficient on-the-go typing. If writing is preferred, the optional&nbsp;<strong>Lenovo Precision Pen 3<\/strong>&nbsp;can magnetically attach to the device for wireless charging and storage. This Bluetooth-enabled pen auto-pairs with the tablet and can be used to remotely control on-screen documents, music, images, and recordings using the customizable button on its side. By simply holding the button while tapping the screen, users can quickly take notes with&nbsp;<strong>Lenovo Instant Memo<\/strong>&nbsp;even when the screen is locked, transcribing handwriting to text, allowing them to capture their thoughts the moment creativity strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When users want to treat themselves to a premium experience but don\u2019t necessarily need a workhorse of a tablet, the&nbsp;<strong>Lenovo Tab P11 (2<sup>nd<\/sup>&nbsp;Gen)&nbsp;<\/strong>with Android 12L<sup>7<\/sup>&nbsp;is a solid choice, featuring a four-speaker system with Dolby Atmos, an 11.5-inch LCD display and up to 120Hz refresh rate.

Also available on both is Lenovo\u2019s cross-device collaboration software&nbsp;<strong>Lenovo Freestyle<\/strong>, previously known as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/news.lenovo.com\/pressroom\/press-releases\/brighter-future-for-hybrid-with-premium-tablets-with-5g-and-next-gen-add-ons\/\">Project Unity<\/a>, an app that gives users the ability to&nbsp;seamlessly link their Android tablets to their Lenovo Windows&nbsp;PC<sup>8<\/sup>, transforming their tablet into either a portable second screen to extend their desktop or a wireless touch screen for their laptop.&nbsp;Gone are the days when tablets could only be used for certain functions and PCs for others. With Lenovo Freestyle, users can&nbsp;universally control and collaborate across the two easily, using the pen or touchscreen to take notes and even sign documents on their PC without having to switch back and forth between&nbsp;apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking of apps, subscriptions to Nebo, which allows users to write, draw, and diagram freely, as well as MyScript Calculator 2, an interactive calculation tool that automatically solves written equations, are included with both devices, taking the work out of work. All of this brilliance is wrapped up in a lightweight, dual-tone modern casing, available in multiple contemporary colors.
