Ahead of the IFA show in Berlin, Lenovo has announced a range of devices, including laptops, tablets, Chromebooks and monitors -and, first up, a pair of glasses that deliver a virtual monitor.
Lenovo Glasses T1
Image: LenovoThey won't be available outside China until 2023, but the Lenovo Glasses T1 (which will be called Lenovo Yoga Glasses in China) look set to turn heads at IFA. Described as a "wearable private display for on-the-go content consumption", the TI Glasses are compatible with USB-C-equipped smartphones, tablets and laptops, and will connect to Lightning-equipped iOS devices via optional adapters.
Looking more like a pair of regular shades and less like a ridicule-attracting piece of geekery, the T1 Glasses come with swappable nose clips and adjustable temple arms to maximise comfort, and also support custom prescription lenses via an attachable frame. The temple arms also accommodate a pair of speakers, as well as buttons to adjust volume, screen brightness and colour temperature. The virtual display, which can be anchored to a fixed point in space or allowed to move with your head, is delivered via micro-OLED technology with 1080p resolution per eye, a 60Hz refresh rate and 10:000:1 contrast ratio.
Use cases for the T1 Glasses include mobile gaming and providing mobile professionals with the convenience of a "personal monitor in their pocket". There are also privacy advantages: "Using the Lenovo Glasses T1, workers have a private workspace to prevent shoulder surfing," Lenovo says.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold (2022).
Images: LenovoThe second-generation ThinkPad X1 Fold offers considerably more screen space than its 13.3-inch predecessor, thanks to a roomy 4:3 16.3-inch OLED touch screen, which folds down to a 12-inch display for use with a magnetically attachable keyboard in laptop mode.
Not only is the screen bigger, but bezels are thinner (~10mm) and the device slimmer when unfolded (8.6mm) and folded (17.4mm). Like the original model, the 2022 ThinkPad X1 Fold is tough enough to pass MIL-STD-810H testing.
Inside, the 2022 X1 Fold runs Windows 11 on 12th-generation Intel U Series processors (up to Core i7 with vPro) with up to 32GB of RAM and up to 1TB of SSD storage. Intel's CPU-integrated Iris Xe handles the graphics.
As well as being larger, sleeker and more powerful (yet still fanless), the new X1 Fold has impressive sustainable credentials. The removable back cover is made from100% recycled woven performance fabric, and post-consumer materials are used in the speaker enclosures, power supplies and compostable exterior packaging.
This versatile foldable device supports several operating modes, under the guidance of Lenovo's Mode Switcher interface: classic clamshell mode with a 12-inch main display and either a virtual or physical keyboard in the lower half; landscape or portrait mode with the 16.3-inch screen fully unfolded and propped up on a magnetically attached stand; and two handheld modes -book and tablet.
The new ThinkPad X1 Fold is also the first to incorporate an enhanced version of Intel's Visual Sensing Controller (VSC), which manages the 5MP webcam to deliver automatic framing, 'wake-on-approach' authentication, 'walk-away-lock' and 'onlooker detection', among other useful features.
