Lenovo line-up (2017 MWC)


Lenovo at the Mobile World Congress launched a new notebook - a 15” Yoga 720, 14” Flex 5, 13” Yoga 520 and 2-in-1 inexpensive device Miix 320.

The most powerful laptop of all four is clearly the Yoga 720. It comes with 4K 15” display and has Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 GPU and Thunderbolt 3 connectivity. The device is 14.3 mm thick and weighs about 1.3 kg. The 4K version offers 8 hours of battery life, but there’s also a cheaper, more durable version with FullHD screen which will last longer on a single charge.


If this is too much for you, there is also the Yoga 520. It has 13” FullHD display with a downgrade available for HD only model. It is a bit thicker and heavier - 20 mm and 1.74 kg, respectively.

Lenovo Flex 5 flexes its way between the two Yogas with its 14” screen. It is less powerful thus cheaper. And as is the tradition with Lenovo, all the devices bend to 360 degrees so they can become hefty tablets.


The Miix line of devices also got a new sibling - the Miix 320 which is a 10.1” tablet with FullHD display that has a detachable keyboard. It is powered by Intel Atom x5, has 4GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage and has an LTE model available.


The Yoga 720 starts from US$ 1,099 while the 520 costs US$ 859. The Flex 5 goes for US$ 799, and the Miix 320 is just US$ 199. All of them will be available in April.
