Lenovo ThinkPhone: The definition of a business smartphone

Lenovo products have always had the answers to all the... questions professionals might have. Now, it is returning to the smartphone market with the Thinkphone, a phone that is far from ordinary, with durability, reliability and technical specifications that will keep any professional happy.

Built for professionals

This is a tool designed not only to offer everything professionals -and other users- need in their daily lives, but also to integrate all its capabilities with a computer. The important point here is that the Ready For app, which ensures the ThinkPhone works seamlessly with a computer, is not officially limited to laptops designed by Lenovo. Of course, Lenovo can primarily test, optimise and ensure the smooth, reliable operation of all these features with its own products.

But let us take a closer look at exactly what the ThinkPhone offers when paired with a Thinkpad via the Ready For app. The idea of giving users access to the data and apps on their smartphone from their computer screen is clearly nothing new. However, Lenovo's approach is comprehensive.

Easy to use

Every app installed on the ThinkPhone can be used on the laptop screen, each in its own separate window. This makes them even easier to use, even compared with using them on the Thinkphone itself.

Likewise, accessing files on a smartphone is also nothing new, but being able to… see it as a separate storage drive, just like a hard drive, is different and more practical, especially for more experienced users. Equally useful is the ability to use the ThinkPhone's camera from the computer, without being tied to a particular app.

You can therefore use the phone's camera in your preferred video calling app, and even… switch between the different cameras easily, with a reliable connection between the devices.

The build of the Thinkphone

The ThinkPhone's carbon fibre back offers both the distinctive feel of the material and the durability needed for everyday use. The screen's gorilla glass victus protection ensures that the ThinkPhone also offers the best possible durability for a smartphone screen. Its IP68 rating for water and dust resistance provides the protection a device needs against accidental contact with water and more.

Technical specifications

Technically, the thinkphone stands out, especially given its significantly lower selling price compared with its competitors. The AMOLED display has a 144Hz refresh rate and lets you choose between beautiful, vibrant colour reproduction and a more natural mode, depending on your needs.

The rear cameras are technically among the best of their kind, while the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor inside has proven both its reliability and the performance it can deliver.
