Lenovo's Snapdragon-powered Flex 5G will be available this week

[silversurfer]

Today, Lenovo is announcing the availability of the Flex 5G, which is known as the Yoga 5G outside of the United States. It was first teased in May 2019 as Project Limitless and was formally unveiled at CES this year. It's the first 5G PC to come to market.
 
The Lenovo Flex 5G includes a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx 5G chipset, similar to what's in the Samsung Galaxy Book S and the Microsoft Surface Pro X, although the chipsets in all three of those are slightly different. What differentiates the 8cx in the Flex 5G and the 8cx in the Galaxy Book S is that with Lenovo's PC, it comes with the Snapdragon X55 5G modem.
 
It also supports both sub6 and mmWave 5G, which is an impressive feat. Companies like HP and Dell have both announced Intel-powered 5G PCs with Qualcomm cellular modems, but all of those are sub6-only. Lenovo is also the only OEM that's been on-board with all three generations of Windows on ARM, with Samsung joining in the second generation and Microsoft only joining with its first-party PCs in the 8cx generation.
