Lenovo ThinkSmart View Plus, is a new Teams meeting display tailored for professional settings, particularly designed for seamless integration with Microsoft Teams. This Microsoft Teams room display comes equipped with a top-tier high-resolution webcam, perfect for video conferences and collaborative work environments.

The Lenovo ThinkSmart View Plus excels in video conferencing settings. Unlike traditional setups, it doesn’t rely on an external player, leveraging a Qualcomm QCS8250 SoC for its operation.

Devices like these fall under the category of Microsoft Teams displays.

Featuring a 27-inch screen, the display offers a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, adhering to the Full HD standard. However, the detachable webcam boasts an exceptional 4K resolution, offering a wide horizontal field of view at 90° and a vertical field of view at 50°. Notably, the webcam is removable and upgradeable.

For superior video conferencing experiences, the unit includes an array of four microphones, along with two 5-watt speakers housed in a soundbar beneath the monitor. It’s also VESA mount-compatible for flexible installation options.

Connectivity-wise, the ThinkSmart View Plus is equipped with an Ethernet port, HDMI, USB Type-A and Type-C, and a jack socket. Both screen content sharing to the ThinkSmart View Plus and external display output via DisplayPort are supported.
