As part of its efforts to boost its Digital Workplace Solutions (DWS), Lenovo has announced the launch of five 5G enabled notebooks enabled by eSIMs. Users can now have connected and secure devices when in the field or on the move thanks to 5G. Of the five notebooks, four, use Intel 5G eSIM while one uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8CX Gen 3.
According to Lenovo’s Global CIO Study 2023, a third of CIOs here feel that their teams need to be more resilient in the face of current and upcoming challenges, and half (53%) cite managing a remote workforce as “extremely challenging” or “very challenging”.
Nigel Lee, General Manager at Lenovo Singapore said:

IT solutions can no longer just be about maintenance, but instead, a comprehensive responsibility to support the employee experience and power business success. Our Digital Workplace Solutions and 5G PCs empower enterprises with advanced technology to optimise productivity, enhance security, and create a seamless employee experience in Singapore’s digital workplace.
