Lenovo unveils ultra-thin, 2-in-1 Yoga Book in India

Keeping in mind the changing computing and mobility habits of young consumers, Chinese technology major Lenovo on Tuesday launched its Yoga Book -- an ultra-thin, 2-in-1 laptop -- in India.

Measuring 9.6mm in thickness, the Yoga Book comes with Windows 10 Pro, 4G SIM connectivity, 4GB RAM and will be exclusively available on Flipkart at Rs 49,990.

"We are sure that it will redefine the computing space and offer traditional notebook, 2-in-1 and tablet buyers a first-of-its-kind option that matches their lifestyle," Bhaskar Choudhuri, Director, Marketing, Lenovo India, told reporters here.

At 690 grams, Yoga Book is the lightest 2-in-1 in the world and with 13-hour battery life and 360-degree watchband hinge, it gives user the freedom to write and draw anywhere, matching the mobility of a smartphone and the versatility of a laptop.

The Yoga Book features 10.1-inch full-HD IPS display, 2.4GHz Intel Atom x5-Z8550 processor, Dolby Audio, 8MP auto-focus rear camera and 2MP front camera.

The device comes with Halo keyboard, a full touch screen backlit keyboard that constantly 'learns about and adapts to' the typing habits of user, with built-in prediction and artificial learning software.

The Yoga Book's dual-use stylus allows users to write and draw with pen and paper while instantly digitising their notes and sketches, the company said.

The laptop also comes with "Book UI" that allows several apps to run at once through multiple windows that can be pinned, maximised or minimised, as well as a taskbar that keeps track of your apps and common Windows keyboard shortcuts and action keys.
