SPECS AND FEATURES
Lenovo offers three versions of the Yoga C640-13IML (we’ll just call it the Yoga C640 from here on out) on its website, including an $850 version (or $770 after discounts) with a 10th-gen Core i5-10210U processor, 8GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 256GB solid state drive, and a $1,000 model ($910 with rebates) with the same RAM and SSD but an upgraded i7-10510U CPU. There’s also a $1,050 configuration that ups the RAM on the Core i7 version to 16GB. All three models come with the same touch-enabled 13.3-inch Full-HD IPS display.
