Lenovo has just launched multiple different products earlier today (21st October 2020). This includes the new ultrabook Xiaoxin lineup and the new Yoga series as well, which includes the Yoga 13s, Yoga 14s, and Yoga 14c.
The Yoga 13s 2021 lineup includes the new
Yoga 13s and Yoga Pro 13s Carbon. Both laptops feature a 13 inch display with a
2.5K resolution and an aspect ratio of 16:10. Under the hood, an Intel Core
i5-1135G7 powers both laptops, which also feature a similar memory
configuration with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage.
The major difference between both variants
is that the latter feature a Carbon Fiber body, which likely adds to the cost
and makes the laptop lighter. The Lenovo Yoga 13s is priced at 5,499 Yuan
(US$ 826) while the Yoga Pro 13s Carbon is priced at 6,299 Yuan
(US$ 946). They will start pre orders from 1st November 2020,
with the first sales starting from 11th November 2020.
The Lenovo Yoga 14s is a bit unique among
the 2021 Yoga lineup as it arrives in both an Intel Tiger Lake variant and an
AMD Ryzen 4000 series processor as well. The former features an i5-1135G7
processor with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage, while the latter
features a similar memory configuration but with a Ryzen 7-4800H processor.
Thus, the pricing between the two also
varies with the higher core clock on the Ryzen 7 version being priced at 5,899
Yuan (US$ 886) while the Intel version costs 5,699 Yuan (US$ 856). The Intel variant also sports Nvidia’s GeForce MX450 GPU,
while the AMD one would likely feature its integrated Vega GPU. Notably, both
laptops feature a 2.8K (2880x1800px) 14 inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate.
The Lenovo Yoga 14c is another laptop in
the Yoga 14 series of laptops, which is aimed at delivering powerful
performance in a small form factor. It arrives in two variants, with the base
model having an Intel Core i5-1135G7 while the higher end variant sports an
i7-1165G7. The processors are paired with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage
a well.
Both laptops do not feature a discrete
GPU, and will likely sport integrated graphics from Intel, which has vastly been
improved with the new Tiger Lake architecture. The i5 version is priced at
5,999 Yuan (US$ 901), while the i7 version is priced at 6,999
Yuan (US$ 1051).
