Yoga Tab 13 and Yoga Tab 11

Similar to the design of previous Yoga tablets, the new Yoga 13 features a unique kickstand design for easy viewing and use in various angles, particularly during video calls.

The 13-inch 2K display is Dolby Vision HDR certified, and underneath the display is a low, front-facing soundbar housing two of the four Dolby Atmos speakers. This makes the tablet ideal for viewing media, which can be done easily thanks to Google's new Entertainment Space.

The Yoga Tab 13 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870, which should provide great performance and efficiency thanks to the 7nm process. The large 10,000mAh battery can provide up to 12 hours of FHD video playback, and the device supports 30W charging. There's 8GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB of onboard storage.
