That would be the Lenovo Flex 5G.<br \/>\nThe Lenovo Flex 5G is running on Qualcomm&#8217;s Snapdragon 8cx 5G platform, which is an always-on chipset, so you can just open up the laptop and start working. Combined with Verizon&#8217;s 5G network, you&#8217;re also going to get some blazing fast speeds.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s if you can find Verizon&#8217;s 5G Ultra Wideband network though. Which is pretty tough to find \u2013 mostly due to how little space mmWave covers.<br \/>\nWhat specs are included in the Lenovo Flex 5G?<br \/>\nAs already mentioned, the Lenovo Flex 5G comes with the Snapdragon 8cx chipset, which is going to give you around 24 hours of battery life \u2013 pretty insane right?<br \/>\nOther internals here include 8GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage. It also has a 14-inch 1080p touchscreen, with two USB-C ports, a headphone jack and a fingerprint reader for Windows Hello. It is also powered by Microsoft Windows 10 Pro. Verizon notes that buyers will also get a year of Microsoft Office 365 Personal for free.<br \/>\nThe Lenovo Flex 5G is going to cost you $1399, or $58.33 per month for 24 months. It&#8217;s not a cheap laptop. Of course, having 5G built-in does definitely drive up the cost. However, with that pretty incredible battery life, this is going to be a great one for those that are always on the go. Hopefully that will happen again once the pandemic is over.<br \/>\nWhere can I get Verizon 5G?<br \/>\nCurrently, Verizon&#8217;s 5G network is only available in 35 markets. And it does not cover the entire market. It&#8217;s wise to check out their coverage maps before you purchase the Lenovo Flex 5G. Particularly if you are looking to take advantage of its 5G network.<br \/>\nVerizon is launching a new &#8222;5G Ultra Wideband Connected Device Plan&#8221; to go along with the Flex 5G. This is going to cost you $30 per month, when you add it to an existing Verizon unlimited plan. Otherwise, it&#8217;ll cost you $90\/month. This plan gets you unlimited data, hotspot usage and 4K video streaming over 5G. That is a really good deal, actually, considering with 4G LTE, there are a lot more caveats and the unlimited plan isn&#8217;t really unlimited.<br \/>\nBut again, this all depends on if you can actually connect to 5G. And its 5G UWB network is mostly only available outside.<br \/>\nThe post The World&#8217;s First 5G Laptop Is Exclusive To Verizon, Starting June 18 appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-9.29.56-AM.png\" width=\"3598\" height=\"1942\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Verizon and Lenovo announced today that the first 5G laptop is making its way to its network later this week.
