This week during the IFA 2016 conference in Berlin, Lenovo revealed four new devices for the consumer on-the-go: the Miix 510, the Yoga 910, the Yoga Tab 3 Plus, and a new Yoga Book 2-in-1 tablet. All models will become available in October, so we don’t have full hardware listings just yet. However, the company provided a few details to nibble on to get you excited about their upcoming release.

The most notable in Lenovo’s October rollout has to be the Yoga Book 2-in-1 tablet. It comes with what the company calls the Halo Keyboard, which provides a full backlit virtual keyboard with shortcut keys on a flushed surface. The company says it matches the experience of a physical keyboard without the need for actual keys, and is backed by prediction software and artificial learning software. There’s also built-in sensitive haptic technology to guide typing and reduce user mistakes.
The Halo Keyboard also plays host to the Create Pad for drawing and taking free-hand notes. This is done using the supplied Real Pen, which can be used to digitize sketches or notes on paper using real ink (meaning it scans while you write or doodle with actual ink), or used as a stylus when writing directly onto the Create Pad interface. This pen features 2,048 pressure levels and 100-degree angle detection, seemingly eliminating the need to purchase a separate digitizer for illustrations and other forms of digital art.
According to Lenovo, this pen took 18 months to develop. It also doesn’t require batteries, and comes with replaceable ink.
As for other features of the new Yoga Book, Lenovo wasn’t very forthcoming in regards to hardware details. It measures 9.6mm closed, 5.5mm open, tapers to 4.05mm at its slimmest edge, and weighs a mere 1.52 pounds. The tablet’s IPS screen measures 10.1 inches and sports 1080p resolution. That said, here are some of the other highlights, including the pricing:
Intel Atom 5x processorA chassis constructed of magnesium and aluminum alloysA small watchband-style 3-axis hinge with 130 different mechanical piecesFour viewing modes: Browse, Watch, Create, and TypeOne model uses a forked version of Android 6.0 called Book UI that supports multiple open windows and keyboard shortcutsDolby Atmos enhanced speakersAndroid-based Yoga Book starts at $500 in October 2016Windows 10-based Yoga Book starts at $550 in October 2016

Next up we have the Miix 510 detachable based on the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, which serves as a tablet first while providing a keyboard when you need to be productive.

As the heading states, Lenovo also revealed what the company deems as the “world’s thinnest” Intel Core convertible laptop, measuring just 14.3mm thick, the Yoga 910. Alas, it appears that Acer may have beat Lenovo to the punch on this one — it just revealed an even thinner 2-in-1, the Spin 7. Still, the Yoga 910 is no heavyweight — here’s our hands-on review.
Based on Windows 10, this device packs a 13.9-inch screen surrounded by a 5mm bezel, promising 10 percent more screen area and a 14 percent increase in pixel density compared to the previous generation. Customers will also have a choice of 4K or Full HD resolution, depending on the pre-configured model. Here’s more:
Up to the latest Intel Core i7 processor100 percent sRGB color gamutDolby Audio Premium speakersUp to 15.5 hours of battery lifeAn embedded fingerprint reader for better security and convenience that’s supported by Windows HelloFeatures an all-metal unibody casing in Champagne Gold, Platinum Silver, or Gunmetal Gray colorsRelies on a watchband hinge for flexible usage modesStarts at $1,300 in October 2016

Finally, we have the Android-based Yoga Tab 3 Plus made specifically for media consumption. It comes packed with not only a 10.1-inch screen with a 2K resolution and Technicolor Color Enhance technology. This screen is complemented by four front-facing JBL speakers supported by Dolby Atmos technology. Here’s the rest in a really small list:
Four separate viewing modes: Stand, Tilt, Hold, or HangMore than 18 hours of battery life via a 9300 mAh smart power management batteryStream media to other devices using Lenovo Media Cast via Bluetooth (audio) and Miracast (video)Starts at $300 in October 2016
