A few days ago, the first details about two new Yoga convertible laptops emerged. Now, even more details and specifications were leaked, thanks to the manufacturer Lenovo, who put the product-sites online a bit too early.

NO SD CARD READER!!! Such a shame.
Finally! the two biggest (and so for non-existent) things i've been looking for in a 2-in-1. an i7 quad core processor and competent dedicated graphics... until now the best you could do with the Asus 2-in-1 with a 950m. The 1050 is a huge step up... and finally a desktop grade CPU. Cooling, throttling and battery life will be the interesting points when this hits the market. This is such a better direction for the 700 series IMO... so far its been a 'cheaper' 900 series.
I was very excited until I saw the battery capacity (48 watts).
dell xps 9650 has 96 watts....
if it is true there is no way this yoga 720 CAN REACH 8 hours battery life it will probably be like their think pad 8 tablet where they avertises 8 hours but real batt erry life was 4.5 hours with 4 hours charging...
Not to mention lenovo awful support and customer services.
Let's wait and see....
If you know anything about laptops you would not so easily believe it could have a quad core. Where will the heat go? How does that battery last????
NOT a quad core for sure.
