Lenovo Pocket Yoga

Posted by EscapeDigitalMedia


Woo.. what do we have here? A new model from Sony? A follow-up to the VAIO P already? Um NO.

This little device is in fact from the folks at Lenovo and is currently known as the “Lenovo Pocket Yoga” (Boy I hope they change the name!) Little is known about the device – other than it appears to have a touch-enabled display. Hopefully the “Yoga” (I really want to call it “Yoda”) won’t be priced into the stratosphere like the Lifestyle VAIO P.



Here are some tidbits from the posting for your edification:

  • Called the “Pocket Yoga” because it was an extension of their other folding concept design which was inspired by the practice of yoga. The design came from one of their New Zealand –based designers
  • Shaped liked a large wallet – the system could be placed in your pocket
  • Surfaced is covered with wallet leather which is designed to be soft and comfortable
  • 360 degree soft hinge design. Supports three modes – which each mode lockable.
  • One mode was to use it in “normal angle” similar to how you might use a laptop
  • Second mode was to open it “360 degrees” – folding the top cover back on itself thereby converting the system into a tablet PC
  • Full function keyboard
  • Elegant belt which wrapped the system AND can be used as a mouse
