It is not often we get to see OEMs going all in on innovative designs for niche products like all-in-one systems. Right now, when we think of all-in-one systems, we would just imagine a slightly thicker display that has all of the components crammed on the back, which is essentially how Apple designs the iMacs. Lenovo is looking to approach this from another angle with the new IdeaCentre A540 model. Instead of making the display thicker, why not place some of the components in a mini PC case that also acts like a support stand for the display?
Lenovo explains that the asymmetric sleek design is inspired by Cypress trees and comes with 24-inch and 27-inch displays. Both variants also get 10-point touchscreen options, and the 27-inch display features a QHD option, as well. These systems support up to gen 9 Intel i7 CPUs coupled with AMD Radeon RX 560 GPUs, and the base supports wireless charging for QI-certified mobile devices even when the unit is switched off. Moreover, the 24-inch model can be equipped with AMD Ryzen CPUs.
Despite its unusual curvature, the metallic steel stand provides the needed balance for the screen. The base also integrates JBL by Harman speakers compatible with the Dolby Audio standard, while the displays also come with clever pull-ou IR cameras that feature TrueBlock Privacy shutters as added security.
Prices for the 24-inch model will start at 799 EUR, whereas the 27-inch will get a 999 EUR starting price, and the IdeaCentre A540 systems are expected to go on sale in September.
