December 3, 2015 (Tokyo, Japan) -- Wacom Co., Ltd, announced that Lenovo has adopted “Active ES” pen technology, Wacom’s unique capacitive pen solution, for their new creative mobile workstation, the ThinkPad P40 Yoga.
While offering ISV-certified, excellent workstation performance, the ThinkPad P40 Yoga also guarantees premium digital sketching capability powered by Wacom’s Active ES solution with 2,048 levels of pressure sensitivity, letting users unleash their creativity to the maximum extent.
As the industry’s first-ever multimode mobile workstation, the ThinkPad P40 Yoga offers the versatility to work across four modes —laptop, stand, tent and tablet— and gives professionals the 360 degrees of flexibility to go through their creative processes anytime, anywhere, leveraging the superb sketching capability and the high-resolution (2560 x 1440) IPS display.
