Reports online in recent days say Qualcomm is set to launch its now-unreleased 8-core Snapdragon X Plus chips, which will soon power the “entry-level” Copilot+ PCs. While the price drop only goes as low as $800 (compared to other AI PCs with Snapdragon X Elite or 10-core X Plus), it’s still some number

Reliable laker Evan Blass, whose X account is private, has now leaked slideshows from Lenovo (via The Verge), featuring the upcoming IdeaPad 5x 2-in-1 and IdeaPad Slim 5x that will have the X Plus octa-core chips powering the device.

According to the leaked press release of the product, Lenovo IdeaPad 5x 2-in-1 boasts a 14-inch display with an inside of 16GB of dual-channel LPDDR5X RAM, up to 1TB SSD storage, two USB type C ports, two type A ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, a microSD reader, and Wi-Fi 7 plus Bluetooth 5.3 support with the Luna grey color variant.
