Here are some early impressions: What do I think of typing on E Ink? The same can be said for its weight - only its predecessor was lighter. Still, the power consumption of our test unit is not that high and can be compared to those of the Surface Pro and Matebook. The meager port selection could also be bothersome for traditional notebook users. But I also did not hate it for short bursts of typing. Shop all the best Cyber Monday deals NOW. The device does not come with any adapters either (USB-C-to-audio-jack or HDMI, for example). As soon as you press a random key, the touchpad switches back to being a space bar. The paper holder has been removed. This should also work with wet fingers. Our test unit managed a battery runtime of 6 hours and 20 minutes here. It feels like an Amazon Kindle for reading PDFs. Of course, there is no normal feedback when hitting a key on the screen. The convertible is not intended for gaming but can display 4K/H.265 videos smoothly. The possibility to digitalize images from paper is no longer available. Unfortunately, the C930 also lacks some of the predecessor's functions. Curious about the Yoga Book C930 and have some specific questions? On the one hand, it is very small, which means that you quickly reach or even cross over the edges when gliding over it. The Matebook from Huawei is slightly slower while the Surface from Microsoft is a little faster. This can be extremely bothersome when you want to copy/paste or use one of the special keys (for example for volume) but then want to continue using the touchpad, which then has to be reactivated manually. However, seeing as Intel initially developed this device, there could be some politics at play here too. The Lenovo smartpen is included in the box. Not just any laptop is going to work for VR, though, so we rounded up your best options right here. There is an SD card reader available in the shape of an SD tray. The Yoga Book C930 is a real PC, and it feels like one too, with everything being very responsive. Another area of upgrade for the Yoga Book C930 is the jump from a 10-inch 1920 x 1200 to a larger 10.8-inch screen with 2560 x 1600 resolution. It should still be possible to read screen content on cloudy days and when looking at the screen from a straight angle. On a device this thin and light you would expect maybe a lower-cost eMMC chip, but instead, Lenovo put 128GB of storage on board, which is surprising and awesome. In practice, you have to click a circle below the space bar for the touchpad to appear. Lenovo (and Intel) are on to something with this design and refocusing of input modalities. At least the C930 offers one USB slot more than its predecessor did. We did not measure the 400 cd/m² the manufacturer claims for this display. When using the "classic" layout, the touchpad is always visible but is a lot smaller. Instead of the Intel Atom, we are now offered an Intel Core i5-7Y54. You can choose what the E-Ink display should be used for at the top of the base screen, as it not only acts as a keyboard but also acts as an e-reader or for inputs using the pen. The inputs would then be digitized. As the convertible is passively cooled and does not have a cooling fan, there is no system noise. Nobody can expect excellent sound with strong, deep bass tones from a tablet convertible. That's why I'm glad to see Lenovo continue with Intel's "Tiger Rapids" concept with the all-new Yoga Book C930 (or the "Yoga Book 2"). It was a whole 200% faster than its predecessor in 3DMark 11 and manages first place in our comparison table. The power supply only offers 27 watts (3A, 9V) which means that the convertible would actually consume additional power from the battery in such a case. Here you can write or draw to your heart's desire, using either the included input pen, which recognizes 4096 levels of pressure and transmits data via Bluetooth, or using your fingers. This was removed in favor of the new E-Ink display and fingerprint reader, which leaves us with the standard 2-MP low-quality camera for video calls. If you need more precision, you can also use the included pen on the touchscreen. The battery requires over 3 hours to recharge fully. The Huawei Matebook and the predecessor both remain cooler by about 10%. The speed of the card slot is average according to our measurements with our reference card, the Toshiba Exceria Pro SDXC 64 GB UHS-II. We have heard a lot worse. The dual-core turbo should be 2.8 GHz. Overall, the screen does a good job despite its small size and offers great sharpness, good contrasts and rich colors, although the color deviation is slightly too high before calibration. Apart from the keyboard and touchpad and the input pen for the E-Ink display, the main screen also supports inputs via touch.
