Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e (5th Gen) 11.6″ IPS Anti-Glare HD (1366×768) Multi-Touch Business Educational Laptop ThinkPad laptops are tested against 12 military-grade requirements and pass more than 200 durability tests. Additionally, the ports and 360-degree hinges are reinforced with rubber bumpers to protect against damage to corners. The keyboard is water-resistant and houses mechanically-anchored keys to prevent restless little fingers from prying them off. The Corning Gorilla Glass display is both impact – and scratch-resistant. Should an accident occur, this tough device is built to withstand bumps and drops from up to 3 feet / 90 cm—about the height of a school desk. 5th gen 4th gen 128 4th gen 256 Yoga 11e 5th Generation Yoga 11e 4th Generation Yoga 11e 4th Generation Display 11.6-Inch HD (1366×768) TouchScreen, anti-glare, LED backlight, IPS 250 nits, 16:9 aspect ratio, 800:1 contrast ratio 11.6-Inch HD (1366×768) TouchScreen, anti-glare, LED backlight, IPS 250 nits, 16:9 aspect ratio, 800:1 contrast ratio 11.6-Inch HD (1366×768) TouchScreen, anti-glare, LED backlight, IPS 250 nits, 16:9 aspect ratio, 800:1 contrast ratio Processor Intel Quad-Core N4100 1.1 GHz Processor (4 Cores 4 Threads, 4 MB Cache) Intel Dual Core i3-7100U 2.4 GHz Processor (2 Cores 4 Threads, 3 MB Cache) Intel Dual Core i3-7100U 2.4 GHz Processor (2 Cores 4 Threads, 3 MB Cache) Graphics Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 600: Supports two independent displays; Max resolution: 3840×2160@60Hz (USB Type-C); 4096×2160@30Hz (HDMI) Integrated Intel HD Graphics 620: Supports two independent displays; Max resolution: 1920X1080 (HDMI)@30Hz Integrated Intel HD Graphics 620: Supports two independent displays; Max resolution: 1920X1080 (HDMI)@30Hz Storage 128 GB SSD 128 GB SSD M.2 Opal2 256 GB SSD M.2 Opal2 Memory 4 GB DDR4 2400MHz SDRAM 8 GB 2133 MHz DDR4 SDRAM 8 GB 2133 MHz DDR4 SDRAM Networking Intel Wireless-AC 9560, Wi-Fi 2×2 802.11ac + Bluetooth 5.0, M.2 card Intel Dual Band Wireless 7265-AC (2×2) + Bluetooth v4.0 Combo M.2 Card Intel Dual Band Wireless 7265-AC (2×2) + Bluetooth v4.0 Combo M.2 Card Operating System Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Dimensions (WxDxH) 11.81″ x 8.27″ x 0.86″ 11.81″ x 8.27″ x 0.88″ 11.81″ x 8.27″ x 0.88″ Weight Starting at 3.4 lb (1.54kg) Starting at 3.51 lb (1.6kg) Starting at 3.51 lb (1.6kg) HDMI HDMI 1.4b HDMI 1.4 HDMI 1.4 Additional Specifications Yoga 11e 5th Generation Webcam 720p Webcam Expansion Slot microSD card reader AC Adapter 45W AC Adapter Energy Efficiency EPEAT Gold; ENERGY STAR 6.1; RoHS-compliant Battery 3-cell (42Wh) left right Right Side Supports two independent displays;Max resolution: 4K 3840×2160@60Hz (USB Type-C); 4096×2160@30Hz (HDMI) Power Button Audio connector USB 3.0 USB-C connector Security-lock slot Pen tether hole Ports & Buttons Left Side Pen tether hole Power connector Ethernet connector HDMI connector Always On USB 3.0 connector MicroSD card slot 1 2 3 4 Bends over backwards, for true flexibility The ThinkPad Yoga 11e laptop features a 360-degree hinge, so students can accommodate whatever they’re doing.
