Lenovo brings fingerprint readers and premium design to its new Yoga 720 laptops
Lenovo is unveiling its latest Yoga laptops at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this week. Unlike the series 900 Yoga laptops, the new Yoga 720 isn’t designed to be a premium Windows laptop. At a $859.99 starting price, the 13-inch Yoga 720 does all the things you expect a Yoga to, thanks to the classic 360-degree hinge. You can flip the laptop into a tablet mode, a tent mode for watching movies, or just a regular laptop mode.
Lenovo is refreshing this range of Yoga 720 laptops with Intel’s latest 7th generation Core i7 processors, up to 16GB of RAM, and up to 1TB of HDD storage or 512GB of SSD. It’s also adding in Windows Hello support thanks to a new fingerprint reader on both the 13- and 15-inch models. It’s quick to simply swipe and access Windows 10 without a password, but it’s not as convenient as an infrared camera to let you scan your face instead. Lenovo appears to be keeping that kind of Windows Hello feature for its more premium laptops, until the components are smaller and cheaper to push down the product line.
