Visitors look at smartphones at the Lenovo stand at the 2015 IFA consumer electronics and appliances trade fair on Sept. 4, 2015 in Berlin, Germany.

Lenovo has recently unveiled a new line of laptops, tablets and gadgets for 2017. They include the new ThinkPad lineup plus the new ThinkVision monitors.

ThinkPad laptops and tablet hybrids have become popular in the recent years as Lenovo's devices tend to stay in the balance between the price and specs. The Chinese tech company also gained popularity with some of their smartphones but the highlight of their recent unveiling is their mobile computers.

Lenovo is using the new Intel Optane caching drives on several of their ThinkPad devices for faster read and write operations with the hard disk. In addition, the models will also ship with the Windows 10 Signature Edition image that does not have the usual bloatware installed in most laptops today.

The ThinkPad Yoga 370 has a 13.3-inch screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels starting at a price tag of $1264 depending on the storage and RAM choices, Anandtech reported. Customers can choose up to 16GB of DDR4 RAM and 1TB SSD. It will be powered by Intel's 7th gen processors.

Those who want a gaming laptop will want to go with the Lenovo ThinkPad T470 as it has an option to go with the NVIDIA GeForce 940MX with 2GB GDDR5 VRAM. The price starts at $914 for the base model.

Lenovo also unveiled the ThinkVision P27H and P24H monitors starting at $329 for the 27-inch model, Digital Trends reported. Both have a pixel resolution of 1440p which is more than enough for most mid-end systems. They also have two HDMI ports, one for USB Type-C and one for DisplayPort 1.2. Users do need to note that the monitors are powered by IPS panels and not OLED.

All of Lenovo's new products including the ThinkPad and ThinkVision lineup will be available in the first quarter of 2017. Interested customers will be able to purchase the said devices in retailers and online stores.
