After Acer's launch of the world's thinnest laptop, Lenovo occupied the stage at IFA 2016 to unveil a host of goodies. It refreshed its Yoga series by announcing a range of new products in the laptop and tablet segments. The most notable announcements include the unique Yoga Book with the first-of-its-kind Halo keyboard and real-en accessory, the Yoga 910 2-in-1 with a fingerprint sensor, and the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus that comes with a splash proof display.

Lenovo Yoga Book
The 2-in-1 Lenovo Yoga Book is possibly the most interesting device launched in the keynote. The Yoga Book is a convertible with a unique Halo Keyboard and a real-pen accessory. The Halo Keyboard is a full touchscreen backlit 'slate-like' keyboard which lacks any physical keys. It is a capacitive keyboard with inbuilt artificial intelligence software which learn the user's typing and navigation habits, and also brings predictive typing. Then there's the real-pen accessory which draws on the halo keyboard just like a real pen. The biggest highlight of this pen is that it never needs charging, doesn't require batteries, and has an ink tip that can be replaced with standard ink tips, just like that of a conventional pen.

Lenovo touts the Yoga Book as be the thinnest and lightest 2-in-1 laptop hybrid in the world, clocking in at just 9.6mm and 690 grams. As for the specifications, the Lenovo Yoga Book (Android) runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow-based Book UI, and there's also a Lenovo Yoga Book (Windows) variant running on Windows 10. It features a 10.1-inch IPS FHD screen, and is powered by the Intel Atom X5 processor and 4GB of RAM. It offers 64GB of inbuilt storage, and the company claims that the battery can last up to 12 hours of use on a single charge. It will be available in a choice of Gunmetal Grey and Champagne Gold. The Lenovo Yoga Book is priced at EUR 499 (roughly Rs. 37,300) for the Android version, and EUR 599 (roughly Rs. 44,700) for the Windows version. Lenovo will start selling it sometime in the beginning of September, and the 2-in-1 will be released in the US market by the end of October.
