It’s a Windows 10 device with 7th-Gen Intel processors that should be able to keep up with light computing needs. The new Yoga Book C930 comes with up to Intel Core i5 processor, though RAM is limited to 4GB LPDDR3 with up to 256GB PCIe SSD storage. The base variant will offer Intel Core M processor.
It has a 360 “watch band” hinge that allows you to flip it all the way around into a tablet mode, so it’s also a tablet. You can use it like any Windows tablet with support for a pen. You can jot notes on the E Ink side or read and mark up PDF documents. The device packs in a 35.8Wh battery which should last up to 8.6 hours.
The E Ink Display
The E-ink display can be used in multiple ways. One can read PDFs when they have converted this into a tablet. The Yoga Book also functions as a tablet and one can simply turn the LCD display all the way to one side 360-degrees to only read on the E-Ink display.
The E-ink display space can also be used as a notepad to doodle, draw, etc via the Active Pen from Lenovo. And a user can also switch the E-ink display back to a ‘digital keyboard,’ and type on it as they would on a traditional laptop.
Lenovo has added to the keyboard this time is haptic feedback and audio sound, which are similar to what one experiences when using an actual physical keyboard. Well, the E-ink display is much more power-efficient than the LCD screen and makes it easy to read on.
Verdict
Well, the Yoga Book C930 is a classy, unique & productive laptop, though the addition of the E Ink display is unique users may take time to get used to the dual-display.
With a variety of functions and usage, the E Ink display will surely help end-users until you get used to it. Due to the 7th gen Intel processors & dual display, you may feel some lag, especially with the E Ink Display.
In this modern era its pointless of using the old 7th gen stuff into something that’s the most unique currently in the world. But, Lenovo has promised to use the latest 8th gen Y-series launched recently in the next edition, which may take some time to appear… Also, that model will have the option LTE connectivity.
As for now, with a base price of $999 the Lenovo Yoga Book C930 will hit the market. Unlike from last year, this year Lenovo has Yoga Book to be a premium Windows Table cum laptop, instead of mixing things up with the addition to Android.
With the Yoga Book, Lenovo will give a tough competition to its competitor Microsoft Surface Book. But yeah, they need to fix issues, make it faster and launch this classy & unique product to the market…

India’s debutant boxer Amit Panghal defeated Uzbekistan’s Hasanboy Dusmatov 3-2 in Boxing Men’s Light Fly (49kg) final event to win a gold medal on the 14th day of the 2018 Asian Games on Saturday.
The 22-year-old Armyman, who won a silver medal at the Commonwealth Games earlier this year, was facing reigning Olympic champion and world championships silver-medallist Dusmatov in the summit clash today.
Amit Panghal, making his debut at the Games, showed immense tactical brilliance, especially in defence to outwit the Uzbek, who has an iconic status in international boxing. Dusmatov won a silver in the world championship last year.
But today, the Haryana-boxer extracted sweet revenge for the narrow loss in Hamburg, keeping his range and striking some clean right hooks and jabs to his shorter and slightly edgy opponent.
The Uzbek southpaw, known for his brilliant counter-attacks, seemed wary of the constantly-on-the-move Indian, who refused to fall into the trap of diving in.
Amit had lost a close quarterfinal contest to Dusmatov in the Hamburg world championships last year.
Amit Panghal won gold at the prestigious Strandja Memorial Tournament in Bulgaria earlier this year and has been enjoying a breakthrough season. He is also an Asian championships bronze-medallist.

The facts speak for themselves, meet #Kirin980… #ExperienceSmarter #HuaweiIFA2018 #IFABerlin #IFA18 https://t.co/PIENgbWzr3
Improvements
Huawei compared their new flagship chipset with the latest and best processor by Snapdragon- the Snapdragon 845. The Kirin 980 solely beat the best Snapdragon 845 by 37% overall…
In terms of memory, the Kirin 980 has 20 percent better bandwidth and 22 percent lower latency than the Snapdragon 845. This helps in faster app usage and app launch…
The major issue of power consumption is 32 percent lower than the Snapdragon 845 chipset. When it comes to gaming, the 980 has been shown to produce 22 percent higher frame rates than the 845.
Photography
Huawei has taken a giant leap by adding dual NPU(Neural Processing Unit) to the Kirin 980. This will result for the processor to handle AI-assisted image recognition tasks at a rate of 4,500 images per minute.
When this is compared to the fastest Snapdragon 845, it just gets 2,371 images per minute. On the other hand, Apple’s fastest A11 chip scores just 1,458.
By using a new dual ISP (image signal processor), the Kirin 980 is 46 percent faster at camera processing than its predecessor. Also, there’s 23 percent improvement in power efficiency while recording, and 33 percent improvement in latency.
Wi-Fi
With the new Kirin 980, the new age Huawei smartphones will be able to deliver the world’s fastest smartphone Wi-Fi speed, clocking in at 1,732Mbps. When its compared to Snapdragon 845’s speed, it has just 866Mbps with a Qualcomm modem.

Real Madrid handed Cristiano Ronaldo and Raul Gonzalez’s historic number 7 shirt to Mariano Diaz. This is a huge gesture of their faith in the young striker on his return to the Bernabeu.
The 25-year-old left Real Madrid a year ago and joined Lyon in an €8 million deal. He has now returned to the Los Blancos on Thursday for a fee which almost trebled that. Real Madrid have spent €22 million (£20m) on re-signing the striker from Lyon.
Real Madrid signed Brazilian starlet Vinicius Junior from Flamengo. But the youngster was not fully ready for the rigours of a 60-game first-team season. So Lopetegui asked for extra back-up to first-choice forward pairing Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema.
Mariano has signed a five-year contract at Santiago Bernabeu. He becomes their first attacking signing since Ronaldo departed for Juventus earlier this summer. Mariano, meanwhile, has enjoyed a sterling start to his career. He scored 21 goals in 48 games at Lyon and was also part of the Real Madrdid squad that won La Liga and the Champions League in 2016-17. He made 8 appearances that season.
Sevilla were also interested in signing Mariano. But Real Madrid were able to beat their La Liga rivals by triggering their option to buy back the Dominican Republic international.
But can Mariano Diaz do justice to the famous No. 7 shirt?
Mariano will be wearing the number 7 shirt that was worn by club legends Cristiano Ronaldo, Raul Gonzalez and Emilio Butragueno.
Several players within Real Madrid’s squad had previously declined the opportunity to wear the number 7. Ronaldo enjoyed an incredible spell in the Spanish capital. The 33-year-old scored 450 goals in 438 games, and won a plethora of trophies. Ronaldo won two La Liga titles, two Copa del Reys, and four Champions League trophies, as well as two UEFA Super Cups, three FIFA Club World Cups and two Supercopa de Espanas.
Unfortunately, Mariano’s stats doesn’t do much favour to him. Scoring just 21 goals in a season isn’t enough to wear Real Madrid’s famous No. 7 shirt. But destiny may have its own plan. The No. 7’s of Real Madrid have always stand above the rest of the players. They have always been among the bests of the world. So Mariano must immediately step into the Portuguese’s sizeable shoes, having requested the No. 7 shirt, and show his worth to the world.
