Thunderbolt 4 and ditch the proprietary port to charge a battery that offers up to 16 hours of autonomy.

The new model is compatible, given the processor it carries, with 5G and WiFi 6 networks. Bluetooth 5.1 and NFC connectivity could not be missing.
The two screens remain independent, slightly curved on the sides to facilitate the continuous screen feel. The news is that it includes a third screen on the “spine” that is used to view notifications without having to open the screens.
It is still a folding screen system that allows you to use a screen as a control for games, something that can be used with Xbox Game Pass, but without neglecting the use with “two-way” applications.
