“With our detachable MIIX 2 and Flex devices, people no longer have to choose between a laptop or tablet. Our multimode products give them the best of both laptop and tablet worlds plus even new modes that make it better and easier to interact and watch their personal digital content, Now the only decision they have to make is choosing which Lenovo multimode product they prefer – one that flips and folds or one that detaches.” (David Roman, chief marketing officer, Lenovo)
