Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid: The Overview

Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid

The Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid is a 2-in-1 convertible laptop that is actually two devices in one: the Hybrid Tab (tablet) and Hybrid Station (keyboard “base”). You can use the two devices together as a laptop capable of switching between Windows 11 and Android (where the keyboard functions as a typical tablet keyboard and touchpad). You can also use Lenovo’s Hybrid Stream feature when in laptop mode, which lets you stream Android apps to a picture-in-picture window in Windows 11.

However, you can also use them separately. You can detach the tablet and use it as a normal, full-fledged Android 13 tablet on its own. Similarly, you can connect an external display to the Hybrid Station and use it as a Windows 11 PC without the tablet.

The Hybrid Tablet is a 14-inch tablet with a 2.8K OLED display, powered by the 8-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 CPU. It has 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, all powered by a 38-watt-hour battery. Lenovo equips the Hybrid Tablet with a dual rear camera setup and a single USB Type-C port, with no other expansion or ports. It ships with Android 13 and supports Lenovo’s Tab Pen Plus for stylus input.
