Lisa Gade reviews the Android version of the innovative Lenovo Yoga Book. It uses the same hardware as the Windows version, though it’s available in a few more colors and the keyboard masking (layout) is Android-centric.

The Yoga Book is a 10.1” tablet with attached keyboard that weighs, 1.5 lb. (690g). It has stunning looks, thanks in part to the flat keyboard design, and is encased in magnesium alloy. It has a 1920 x 1200 IPS touch screen with basic “AnyPen” pen support and a flat surface where the keyboard should be. That’s the Create Pad, and it’s both a capacitive keyboard and a Wacom EMR digitizer that you can write and draw on (even through paper) with the included pen. The Create pad supports 2,048 pressure levels and has palm rejection, unlike the display digitizer.

The Yoga Book runs a customized version of Android 6.01 Marshmallow on the 1.44 GHz Intel Atom x5-Z8550 CPU with 4 gigs of RAM and 64 gigs of storage. The Yoga Book has dual band WiFi 802.11ac, Bluetooth and optional 4G LTE. It’s priced at $500 and the pen and magnetic paper pad are included.
