Bumper Lenovo IFA 2024 leak reveals over a dozen products featuring Legion Go accessories plus new IdeaPad, ThinkBook, ThinkPad and Yoga laptops
Evan Blass has managed to obtain images and details of Lenovo's plans for IFA 2024, which runs between September 6 and September 10 in Berlin. Officially, Lenovo has not discussed any plans for this year's IFA conference. However, Blass alleges that the company will introduce over a dozen products, some of which have not been seen before.
Specifically, Blass' extensive leak describes these products by the following names:
- IdeaPad 5x 2-in-1, 14-inch, 9th Gen
- IdeaPad Slim 5, 13-inch, 10th Gen
- IdeaPad Slim 5, 15-inch, 10th Gen
- IdeaPad Slim 5x, 14-inch, 9th Gen
- Legion Go USB-C dock
- Legion Go carrying case
- Legion Go charging connector
- Legion Go Joystick Pro
- ThinkBook Auto Twist (proof of concept)
- ThinkBook 16, 7th Gen, ASP
- ThinkBook 16, 7th Gen, QOY
- ThinkPad T14s, 6th Gen
- Yoga Pro 7
- Yoga Slim 7i Aura
On the one hand, the ThinkBook Auto Twist is an entirely new device, although it has been relegated to 'proof of concept' status like the ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop before it. As the images below show, the ThinkBook Auto Twist has a hinge mechanism that allows its hinge to be rotated freely, even at obtuse angles.
Moreover the Slim 7i Aura appears to be a new addition for the Yoga series. Based on the images shared so far, the Slim 7i Aura looks like it features a 16-inch display, judging by the full-width keyboard and top-firing speakers, plus an HDMI port, two USB Type-C ports and a USB Type-A connection.
On the other hand, it seems that Lenovo intends to use IFA 2024 to expand the IdeaPad series with another four models. While device specifications remain unknown for now, Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus stickers can be seen on the two '5x' models. Likewise, the ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 will gain two new models, which Blass describes as 'ASP' and 'QOY'; presumably, the former is an acronym of AMD Strix Point.
Meanwhile, Lenovo has created another ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 and an updated Yoga Pro 7, the latter powered by AMD Ryzen 8000 APUs. Finally, Lenovo has also developed new accessories for the Legion Go (curr. $542.03 on Amazon). As far as we can tell, the charging connector will be compatible with the device's existing controllers while serving as a grip accessory. Unfortunately, it remains to be seen how the Joystick Pro will differ from the Legion Go's existing controllers at this stage.
