What you need to know
Lenovo knows people want thebest computer monitorsbut sometimes have to settle for whatever screen is built into their laptop. That’s why the company devised a solution: Mobile monitors that attach to existing laptops. But today’s device isn’t just any mobile monitor — it’s the ThinkVision M15 mobile monitor, a revision of Lenovo’s M14 monitor.
What makes the M15 special? Well, it’s armed with TÜV Rheinland certified Low Blue Light technology, both it and its accompanying laptop can be powered by a lone power adapter thanks to its “power pass-through” capability, and its head is only 6 millimeters thick. Plus, thanks to the monitor’s port placement, it’s essentially an ambidextrous device that can connect to a laptop from either side, making it optimal for situations that demand setup flexibility. Here are the specs you can look forward to with the M15.
As mentioned above, this monitor will arrive sometime in Q3 of 2021 at a price of $219. According to Lenovo’s press blurb, the monitor is “perfect for multi-screen multitasking like spreadsheets in an airport lounge or sharing a presentation with a prospect in a restaurant.” So if you’re the type of person who likes to bring multiple screens to an airport lounge or restaurant, mark this page and check back when more details on the release date are available.
