New CPUs and screen sizes for the ThinkPad Yoga

2015-01-05
I'm dacron here at CES 2015 with the latest versions of Lenovo's thinkpad yoga now the way the thinkpad yoga differs from the regular yoga's is that it's got a clever bit of mechanical slide of hand here we're in a regular yoga if you fold the screen all the way back you still have the keyboard and touchpad right here and your fingers can clack against the keys even though they're deactivated in the thinkpad versions there's actually a little panel that rises up as you fold the screen back and locks into place right here from behind the keyboard trait so the whole thing is is essentially flat you can't press the keys anymore and they seem to be at about the same level as everything else there so there's basically almost retract and then once you fold it back your keyboard comes back to life and that's what makes the thinkpad yoga different from the regular yoga's so to update these models is now the 12 inch model there's a 14 there's a 15 inch model they're all going to move up to Intel's new 5th generation core i series processors also known by the codename Broadwell and the 15 inch version is super interesting because you're going to be able as an option to get Intel's new realsense camera that's kind of a fancy webcam built-in that can you know scan objects in 3d and do more sort of a detection of objects in the real world so you could use a lot of hand gestures and stuff like that we're starting to see that in a few systems we're gonna have to test it out some more to see what the capabilities of real sense really are so these two guys the 12 inch and 15-inch are going to be available in February in the US at nine ninety nine and 11 99 the fortunate version is coming later in the US in may also at 1199 I'm Dan Akron at CES 2015 with lenovo's thinkpad yogas you
