Lenovo Yoga 910 gets more impressive with smaller bezels, Intel Kaby Lake, and fingerprint reader
The Lenovo Yoga 900 series has always been pushing the boundaries of design and innovation, but those large bezels always bothered me. Luckily, Lenovo just announced a refreshed Yoga 900 – now with the 910 designation – at IFA in Berlin, Germany.
Due in October, the new Yoga 910 improves a lot of the little things to make a compelling two-in-one convertible. Here is what you need to know and check out our hands-on video to see it in action.

Let's start with where Lenovo went right with the Yoga 910 over its predecessor the Yoga 900. They've finally added a fingerprint reader for Windows Hello (finally!), slimmed down those chunky bezels by making the display larger (up from 13.3" to 13.9") and even offer a pretty ridiculous 4K variant.
As someone who has owned or used a few Yoga's in the past the Yoga 910 for me is now a compelling option. You're getting their fantastic keyboard, an ultra-slim PC at just 14.3mm thin, and up to a Core i7 processor – 7th gen at that all with that cool looking hinge. Toss in the ability to flip around and be used as a tablet or in tent-mode and it's great to see Lenovo make a comeback from the earlier Yoga 3 Pro from 2014, which was terrible.
Take a look at our hands-on video and let us know if we should review it when it hits markets later this Fall.
