Title: Lenovo Yoga Book C930 uses a 1080p E-ink touchscreen for a keyboard because why not
Post by: Redaktion on August 30, 2018, 20:38:22
Why use a boring ol' physical keyboard when you can use a 1080p E-ink touchscreen instead? The second generation Yoga Book is as unique as a netbook can get with its combination of a primary 10.8-inch 1600p IPS display and a secondary 10.8-inch 1080p E-ink display for a launch price of $999 USD.

This actually seems pretty cool in a weird way.

Can't see the keyboard being very good, but a very cool concept nonetheless.

E-ink but with no backlight could be problematic for so many people.

4GB ram is not enough and the QHD+ screen (+second screen) with that tiny battery would give 3 hours ar best. Otherwise interesting concept

Agree. Don't know what they were thinking. I was waiting for this as a development machine on the go. But now only 4GB ram...come on Lenovo!

Intriguing concept but the CPU is underpowered and an advertised 8.5 is supposedly <4 hours of real battery life. Feels unfinished, half-baked.
