The ease and added security provided by Lenovo Smart Assist will also be music to your ears.

Advanced display features such as Privacy Alerts are offered via attention-sensing AI software from Glance by Mirametrix® to help protect your screen from shoulder-surfing neighbors, helping to ensure that your work stays private, and for even more security, your screen is built to automatically blur when you look away.
