The Lenovo Yoga 920 convertible tablet/laptop contains up to an 8th-Generation Intel Core i7 processor, Windows 10 OS and an almost-bezel-less 4K IPS touchscreen in a 13.9-inch frame. Weighing 3.02 pounds, the four-mode convertible flexes 360 degrees from a laptop into a tablet. The computer offers an optional Lenovo Active Pen 2 for Windows Ink that has 4,096 levels of pen sensitivity for drawing and making notes with no discernible lag. Using Cortana, the tablet recognizes voice commands in standby mode and from up to four meters away so users can add items to a list, check traffic, send short emails, track packages and more. Cortana even uses artificial intelligence to learn from its owners, so the Yoga 920 grows smarter over time. www.lenovo.com
