Lenovo today announced the 11.6-inch IdeaPad Yoga 11S Ultrabook that flips and folds into a tablet thanks to a 360° hinge. The convertible laptop is powered by 3rd generation Intel Core i5 processors with Windows 8, which supports 10 finger multi-touch on its HD IPS display. Motion Control lets users simply swipe their hand in front of the webcam to advance photos, videos and other document, and with Lenovo Transition, users can automatically open applications like PowerPoint in full-screen when using Yoga in its other three modes: tent, stand or tablet.
Like its predecessor, users can work with Yoga 11S as a laptop, or flip the screen around to turn it into a great sized tablet. Even convert Yoga 11S into Stand or Tent modes for a space-saving way to watch movies, as it’s tuned with great Dolby Home Theatre audio and smooth Intel integrated high definition graphics. IdeaPad Yoga 11S also has the same attractive rubber painting and a soft-touch exterior as the IdeaPad Yoga 13, although it now will be available in Silver Grey and Clementine Orange.
