What configurations does Lenovo offer?

Depending on your region, Lenovo may offer more than one configuration (or might not offer any models), but currently, in the U.S., you can find a model with a 7th Gen Intel Core i5-7Y54 processor (CPU), 4 GB DDR3 RAM, and relatively speedy Toshiba 256 GB solid-state drive.

All models come with the same 10.8-inch IPS touch display with 2560x1600 resolution, 36 Wh battery, fingerprint reader, and a unique 10.8-inch E Ink screen with 1920x1080 (FHD) resolution. The model available from Lenovo costs about $1,050, which puts it up there with a lot of full-sized premium Ultrabooks on the market.

It's interesting to note that European models from Lenovo have available LTE connectivity and a corresponding SIM card slot, which it doesn't seem like North America is getting.

Does Lenovo offer warranty coverage?

No matter the model of Yoga Book C930 you choose at checkout, you're getting a 1-year carry-in or depot warranty. You get coverage for parts, labor, and delivery to and from the repair facility (if you don't drop it off yourself). If that doesn't seem like enough, you can extend or renew your warranty for further coverage past what's primarily offered.

Is a pen included in the price?

All models of the Yoga Book C930 come with an included active pen. It uses Wacom technology on the main touch display and offers 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity for a natural inking experience, plus it works with the second E Ink display.

You won't get the same level of inking with the bottom portion, but the combination of Lenovo's proprietary note-taking app and the smart design makes it easy to jot down notes while also keeping your standard screen free to display whatever you want. It's also going to suck up a lot less battery power than the standard top touch display.

Thanks to E Ink technology, the bottom display doubles as an e-reader akin to a Kindle or Nook. Unlike a standard display, E Ink cuts down on eye strain and provides a much more natural reading experience. Full Windows 10 ebook support is hopefully coming in the future, but for now, it acts as a PDF reader.
