Redesigned LIFEBOOK T Series convertible tablet PC

Fujitsu is also introducing a redesigned version of the popular LIFEBOOK T902 convertible tablet PC, targeting mobile power users who need more performance than a tablet. Based on more than 20 generations of tablet PC, the new LIFEBOOK T Series adds a dual digitizer with multi-touch support to easily navigate around the new edge-to-edge display. The new LIFEBOOK is lighter and thinner than previous models and offers best-in-class performance plus thoughtful touches such as the display which can rotate in both directions.

Said Mr. Dieter Heiss, Vice-President, Workplace Systems at Fujitsu Technology Solutions, “With the new STYLISTIC Q702 hybrid tablet, Fujitsu is delivering the best of both worlds: the portability and ease-of-use of a tablet, which is perfect for consuming content, and an attachable keyboard, converting the device into a notebook with a full keyboard where it’s easier to create content, for example when working on a spreadsheet or editing a business proposal.”
