For clarity, Lenovo&#8217;s TrackPoint hardware is a small red nub,. centered on the keyboard. It effectively works as a joystick-like mouse, supplementing the touchpad.<br \/>\nLenovo has been putting its popular TrackPoint hardware in its ThinkPad devices for years. Mostly because they offer power users a faster way to navigate around the UI without leaving the keyboard. But this marks the first occasion one has been added to a Chromebook.<br \/>\nThinkPad C13 Yoga is a power-user-ready Chromebook<br \/>\nNow, Lenovo also includes a stylus in the new C13 Yoga Chromebook Enterprise. That&#8217;s an optional accessory but can be housed in the frame of the laptop. But that should put even more power in users&#8217; hands, falling in-line with what&#8217;s been packed under the hood.<br \/>\nTo begin with, Lenovo started with a 13.3-inch FHD IPS display panel for its newest Chromebook. That can be had in touch or non-touch variants. In either case, the weight has been kept to under 3.3lbs and the frame measures just 15.5mm thin. The bezels surrounding that display have been taken down a notch too. Although, Lenovo hasn&#8217;t specified just how wide they are.<br \/>\nOther optional hardware includes a fingerprint reader and a world-facing camera built into the device. But, in either case, the webcam above the display features a privacy shutter. So users can shut the camera off from the world as needed.<br \/>\nIn terms of ports, Lenovo included two USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports as well as two more Type-A USB ports. There&#8217;s an HDMI 2.0 port as well. Connections are handled by a chip intended to support up to Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0.<br \/>\nPowering Chrome OS, with a Chrome Enterprise Upgrade gearing this laptop toward education and businesses, is a powerhouse from AMD. That&#8217;s up to an AMD Ryzen 7 3700C processor, in fact. The chip is lower in cost but comparable to something in-between Intel&#8217;s Core i5 and Core i7 series chips.<br \/>\nSo this could be one of the most powerful Chromebooks around for its price.<br \/>\nWhen will this become available to purchase?<br \/>\nLenovo hasn&#8217;t given an exact date for the ThinkPad C13 Yoga Chromebook Enterprise as of this writing. The company states that it will be ready to buy &#8222;shortly&#8221; but hasn&#8217;t pinned down a timeframe. As to pricing, models will start out at a reasonable $579.<\/p>\n<p>The post Lenovo ThinkPad C13 Yoga Is A Powerful AMD Chromebook For Power Users appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/lenovo-thinkpad-c13-yoga-chromebook-presser-01.jpg\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1081\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lenovo has reportedly announced a powerful new AMD-powered ThinkPad C13 Yoga Chromebook Enterprise but its biggest differentiator might be the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":5539,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5538","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bez-kategorii"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5538","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5538"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5538\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5540,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5538\/revisions\/5540"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5538"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5538"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5538"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
