It's designed for pros who do heavy office work, and still want to be stylish plus flexible in terms of storage because we can't have enough of that. 

Second is the ThinkPad P16s Gen 1 which is built for performance and speed. It runs on an AMD Ryzen 7 PRO processor and an AMD Radeon Graphics with LRO APU Driver , a huge 32 GB 6400 MHz LPDDR5 memory and upto 2 TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe storage for easy in/out access.

Clark Popple of SMB Segment Lead of Lenovo says "Thank you for being here, you've played a lot in our success this year and we have been driven by customer feedback. We put you in our purpose, to provide things that make people save time, and be more productive. We also have AMD here who has given our products the needed boost and power so even more Filipinos benefit from it and provide technology for all!"

Francis Judan says "For 2023 we are changing the business environment, the world has jobs and careers that automate, analyze, cloud based and even entertainment via content creation. Even marketing is driving to those changes and careers have been different for Gen Z's. No one now wants to do business that is not hybrid, majority don't even want an office which changes the game. The new workforce is now wanting more powerful devices and be on the go, become smarter, sustainable which also become a basis for our products. With the heavier workload, more hard disk capacity and can relate more to users here in the Philippines. Come 2025 we want to be compliant, to last them a lifetime, they need to invest in hardware that will last and a longer lifecycle. LENOVO had been thinking of Gen Z's and Millennials that are a huge part of the workforce and relate them to the products that they make without sacrificing security, ease of use so you can have a better experience for work or play."

Lenovo is certainly on a good path in making sure their laptops become worthwhile buddies when they dish out new notebooks, ThinkPads for their intended customers.

Lenovo Showcases Newest Yoga Laptops for those who CREATE

You can do so much more with a Lenovo, this is what was cemented during an event where they showcased their latest laptops together with their tech partners in Blueleaf BGC. These are the latest ultra slim laptops that have Windows 11, for those who dare to create.

The Yoga 9i can flip and fold like its predecessors, but with a thinner form factor, even more powerful 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1260p processor, it can do a lot more than those thicker laptops in the market. It also has 16GB LPDDR5 memory plus a 1TB SSD PCIE Gen 4 drive which you can use to store photos, videos, documents without worrying you'll run out of space for it. The display is a 2.8K OLED PureSight Touchscreen so those clicks can happen when you need to. The Bowers & Wilkins branded soundbar system also bring a more immersive audio experience so if you need to present, watch movies, or listen to music, this can do the job. This costs Php 109,995 whic means it's an investment, if you need a device for work and play, and look good for that matter, the Yoga 9i should be on your list.

The Yoga Slim 7i Carbon makes those meticulous pros that look for form and function a little at ease. It might be 13 inches, but it's equipped with a 12th Gen Intel Core i7 1260P processor which makes work tasks or editing a breeze. It's super light at 960 grams, uses magnesium alloy for its body plus carbon fiber which makes it easy to bring along if you're working remotely. It's got a 2.5K PureSight Display and a 90Hz refresh rate, those games you play every once in a while that needs better resources can be done without worries. It uses an Intel Iris Xe so if you're fond of watching dramas or editing videos, this can perform for long hours. It comes in Moon White and Cloud Grey colorway and costs Pho 77,995. If you're looking for a laptop for studying and casual gaming, this would fit you nicely.

If you fancy the Yoga Slim 7i Pro X, you've got enough power for content creation, audio processing in one unit. It's a monster equipped with an Intel Core i7-12700H Processor so you can run software without slowing down other things and finish the job early. It's a bigger rig at 14.5 inches, has an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 with a 4G GDDR5 VRAM which you can use for heavy graphics and hungry apps. The 32GB LPDDR5 RAM and 1 TB PCIE SDD can get your projects stored, including photos, videos and documents without the need of other storage devices, as it is quite massive already. With the Lenovo X Power, your power use is efficient, something propreitary which you won't find in other brands. Those GPU and CPU needs will be managed, and you get the things done efficiently. I could see this be used by pros, who need 120Hz Refresh Rates, something Lenovo PureSight could only do (I'd be worried gamers would run out of it). It weighs 1.6KG, for what it can do that's still light. It costs Php 91,995 though which may be hefty for some, but it'll be worth the investment in the long run.


These are just some of the things that Lenovo has up their sleeves, who in the right mind would not want that? Uf you;re seriously considering to have one, check out lenovo.com/ph/en/yoga as they have the features listed there. It is available in the Philippines now!

Investing During the Pandemic

Times are hard and it's been a year since we were all locked down in our homes due to the rising case of COVID-19. The rising cases this year is scary and I hope you've managed to still save a buck or two, or maybe thinking really hard where to invest your extra money during these times. Let me suggest a few!

Invest in Healthcare. If you haven't had one, make sure you do as the rising cost of hospitalization doesn't just cripple you, but the economic standing of your family. There are plans, ones that are affordable and if you do invest in one, make sure you get recommendations from family and friends that have benefited from it. There are tons out there, but choosing one that has proven easy to deal with especially on emergency cases would be better in the long run, so choose wisely.

Start a Home Business. Tons of entrepreneurs have already started cooking, making things, doing services from their own homes. If you're a good cook, maybe start by sharing what you cook first to friends and family, because chances are, when you sell them later on, they will be your first customers. Aside from that, it's easy to have deliveries done these days, so no need to go out that much even if you start your business in your own turf. 

Invest in a laptop or PC. If you're running a business, you would need things like these to start taking orders and getting organized. Aside from that, you can play games, stream them, or perhaps make marketing materials that you would need for your business. A handy laptop that you can take anywhere or a more powerful PC that you can make as your station when you need to do your business at home. Choose something that you can utilize in the future, it's a hefty amount you are spending for it so make sure it will last for years.

Invest in Jewelry. Things that you can buy these days are gold and diamonds, or just any precious stones that have worth when you pawn it. Good people like Cebuana Lhullier even have been selling it. If it went through their strict appraisal process and saw it on sale, it would be nice to get them from an entity that has been doing it for 30 years. Best of all, they're accessible as they have over 2,500 branches nationwide! You can also check their services or what they sell online via  https://www.cebuanalhuillierjewelry.com or https://www.cebuanalhuillierjewelrypremium.com/ because they too want things to be convenient. 

I'm sure you do too.
