Lenovo Yoga Book combines a tablet, laptop and sketchpad like never before

There have been plenty of attempts at combining a tablet and laptop but Lenovo has come up with a new product – the Yoga Book – that takes an entirely new and innovative approach.

The device, unveiled at IFA in Berlin, has two panels that are hinged together. On one is a 10.1-inch display and on the other is what appears to be a giant trackpad.

But it is actually a touch sensitive panel like a Wacom tablet that can be used to digitize writing and drawings on the screen.

Users can also place a piece of paper on the panel and whatever they write or draw with a real pen is also transferred digitally as well.

And if you need a keyboard – it can transform into that too.

In this mode a halo keyboard appears on the flat panel and users are able to receive haptic feedback when they type like they would with a physical keyboard.

The hinge is similar to the one found on Lenovo’s popular Yoga laptops which means the screen can be completely folded back on itself and be used like a tablet.

The Yoga Book will be offered in two versions – Android and Windows – and they will go on sale in October.

Lenovo also announced the Yoga 910 convertible laptop and Yoga Tab 3 Plus Android tablet at IFA.

The Yoga 910 is just 14.3mm thick and has Intel’s latest 7^th generation Core i7 processor under the hood to make it one of the most powerful convertibles on the market.

Customers will have the choice of either a new 4K display or full high definition screen which has a nearly invisible 5mm bezel.

It will go on sale in Australia in October and start at $1,999.

Lenovo’s Yoga Tab 3 Plus has a 10.1-inch 2K display with Technicolor Colour Enhance and Dolby Atmos three dimensional sound through its four front-facing JBL speakers.

The Yoga Tab 3 Plus will be priced at $599 when it goes on sale in October.
