Lenovo Yoga 11 On Sale
Posted in: Today's Chili
The Lenovo Yoga 11, which is the smaller sibling of the Lenovo Yoga 13, although it runs on Windows RT, is now made available for you to part with your hard earned money. The Lenovo Yoga 11 apparently appeared on their website on the quiet, where you will be able to choose from 32GB or 64GB flavors. The 32GB model is said to retail for $679 a pop, while those who figure out that they need more storage space can always check out the 64GB model at $759 a pop. Of course, while the mantra of “better be late than never” rings true, it is best to be early, no? After all, the initial announced availability was originally scheduled for a December launch.
For those of you who are wondering, the Lenovo Yoga 11 seems to be priced on the rather steep side, especially when you take into consideration that the kind of specifications it comes with are not too different from that of other Windows RT-based tablets including Microsoft’s very own Surface, the Asus Vivo Tab and the Samsung Ativ Tab. All of those mentioned models, the Yoga 11 included, come with NVIDIA Tegra 3 processors as well as 2GB RAM. Still, the Yoga 11 does boast the largest screen size among all four tablets at 11.6” in addition to carrying a full-sized HDMI port and SD memory card slot.

Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 shipping this month for $1,099, ARM-powered Yoga 11 coming in December
Posted in: Today's Chili 
Lenovo is pulling back the curtain on several Windows 8 devices today, and among the bunch is a somewhat familiar face: the IdeaPad Yoga. We first got a look at the 13.3-inch device back at CES in January, where it stood out with a flip-and-fold design that lets it transform into a tablet from a notebook and vice versa. In addition to unveiling full spec and pricing information for the Yoga 13, Lenovo is announcing an 11-inch version.
The IdeaPad Yoga 13 will go for $1,099 and up when it hits Best Buy and Lenovo’s online store October 26th (Best Buy pre-orders will start Otober 12th.) The hybrid device will pack a Core i5 or Core i7 Ivy Bridge processor, up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of SSD storage. As we already knew from our preview earlier this year, the Yoga boasts a 1,600 x 900 IPS multi-touch display, and there’s a 720p front-facing camera for video conferencing. At 0.67 inches thick and 3.4 pounds, this guy is a bit chunkier than some of the slimmest Ultrabooks, but it’s certainly no hulk either. Connections include USB 2.0, USB 3.0, a media card reader and HDMI output. Lenovo rates the Yoga 13 for seven hours of battery life.
