    Up to 5th Gen Intel® Core Processor
    Premium performance, powerful possibilities. With stunning visuals and performance, the new 5th gen Intel® Core™ processor delivers processing power that takes your computing to the next level so that you can work smarter and play harder. Enjoy amazing battery life that keeps you productive on the go so that you don’t have to worry about recharging. That’s serious processing. Only with Intel Inside®.

    Windows 8.1
    Built for business. Built for life. The new Windows brings together everything you do across all your devices — whether at home, at work, or on the go. With Windows 8.1 Pro, you get everything in Windows 8.1, plus enhanced security features like trusted boot, improved biometric support, backup to SkyDrive, and more.

    Four Awesome Modes. One Incredible Device.
    Easily change between four modes — Laptop, Stand, Tablet, and Tent — while your system automatically switches system settings and locks the keyboard in place. The secret: ThinkPad Yoga 15's unique design, improved hinge, and touchscreen display allow the screen to flip around 360 degrees — and even lay it flat. That means you can select the mode you use based on what you choose to do.

    Thin and Light Design; Long Battery Life
    Starting at a mere 2.3kg (5.1 lbs) and just 21mm (0.8") thick, ThinkPad Yoga 15 is ultraportable — it’s perfect for productivity on the go. And with up to 8 hours of battery life, you can go all day without recharging.

    Industry-Leading Multimode Keyboard
    Pioneering Ultrabooks need pioneering keyboards — and the ThinkPad Yoga 15's innovative lift ‘n’ lock keyboard fits the bill. When your Yoga switches between modes, the keyboard frame automatically rises and the keys lock, eliminating accidental keystrokes and providing a more comfortable grip.

    Optional Active Pen Support
    Active Pen technology provides a natural, fluid writing experience and lets you take notes, sign documents, annotate PDFs, and more.

    Intel® RealSense 3D Camera
    Intel's 3D camera allows several new revolutionary functions, including captured image immersion, enhanced motion and gesture sensing, 3D shape capture and scanning and more.

    Rock-Solid Durability
    The ThinkPad Yoga 15's durable magnesium-alloy frame and heavy-duty, scratch- and smudge-resistant Dragontrail display mean it can handle tough treatment from even the hardiest road warrior.

    NVIDIA® Discrete Graphics Options
    ThinkPad Yoga 15 spares nothing when it comes to graphics performance. With up to NVIDIA® GeForce® 840M graphics, it gives you enhanced graphics when work demands it, and a vivid gaming and video experience when it’s time for fun.

    Massive Storage Options
    With up to 1TB in HDD storage, 500GB hybrid storage, or up to 512GB SSD storage, the ThinkPad Yoga 15 has plenty of space for all of your important files, videos, photos, and presentations.

    10-Point Multitouch Display
    Interact with your ThinkPad Yoga 15 by using simple, intuitive gestures directly on the 15.6" FHD 10-point multitouch display with Active Pen support. Its advanced multitouch technology provides a superior touch experience, greater responsiveness, and faster response times.

Last year we were nearly smitten by the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 14, a 360 degree convertible with a superb backlit keyboard and rare (for an Ultrabook) dedicated graphics. Fast forward to the summer of 2015 and the 14" Yoga has been replaced by the 15" model...
