Use a second screen is one of the ways to boost productivity when working on a computer. Unfortunately, it is easy to have a second screen when working in the same office all day, this is more complicated if one must all the time move. But for those who truly need a second screen, it is already possible to transform the tablet Android or iOS into second screens for laptops, with applications. To further facilitate the use of tablets, Lenovo could release a tablet running Android designed to serve as a second screen.
It is, in any case, this shows that the site XDA in an article published a few days ago. He quotes several sources who would have had access to documents on this upcoming tablet from Lenovo. It could be called the Lenovo Yoga X and when it is desired to use it as a second screen for a computer, it is sufficient to connect the two devices with a cable micro-HDMI.
As soon as it is connected via HDMI to a computer, the device would fail mode will automatically be Android tablet to a second mode screen. And the touch would configure settings such as brightness, contrast, etc
An interesting product for telework ?
Given that software can already use tablets as a second screen, it is possible that Lenovo has put forward the fact that thanks to the HDMI link, the experience will be more fluid on his product.
But for the moment, as this information does not originate from an official source, these are still to be considered with caution. And XDA said that it is possible that the documents that he has relayed concern a concept that has not yet been validated, and therefore could not be launched. In any case, a product such as the one described by this rumor may well be of interest to teleworkers who can work from anywhere, and who need a second screen to be easy to carry.
Otherwise, as a reminder, we recently published an article indicating a significant increase in PC sales during the second quarter of 2020 due to the teleworking and distance education.
