Video shows 995 gram Lenovo Yoga Carbon with 16:10 display and Tiger Lake CPU
A video presentation of the Lenovo Yoga Carbon has leaked. It is a thin 13.3 “laptop with a weight of 995 grams and a 16:10 screen with a resolution of 2560×1600 pixels. The laptop gets an Intel Tiger Lake processor.
According to the clip the Lenovo Yoga Carbon is 14.25 mm thick and contains a 50Wh battery, which should allow the laptop to last for sixteen hours. The housing is made of carbon fiber, bringing the weight to just under a kilogram. The laptop gets WiFi 6 support and a fingerprint scanner, and the screen can display the srgb color space for one hundred percent.
Lenovo puts an 11th generation Intel Core processor in the laptop. That is a frugal Tiger Lake processor. It is the successor to the Ice Lake laptop processors, also made at 10nm, but now on an improved process and combined with Intel’s new Xe GPU.
According to the slides, the Lenovo Yoga Carbon will have a processor with a lower TDP than the standard version. This seems to indicate that Lenovo is limiting the consumption of the processor to keep heat development low and improve battery life.
Lenovo has not officially announced the Yoga Carbon yet. The video was posted on Twitter by Walking Cat, who often shares information about Microsoft products. He also showed a video of a Lenovo Yoga laptop with two screens and Windows 10X.
Intel has previously indicated that the Tiger Lake processors will appear in laptops in mid-2020. Acer recently announced a new version of its Swift 5 laptop, which will probably get a Tiger Lake CPU. Intel has not yet formally presented the processors. Intel recently showed a teaser of the performance of the Xe GPU.
