Lenovo gave us a good look at another addition to its line-up of laptops, the Y70 Touch. The company claims that the Y70 Touch gaming laptop is its first 17-inch touch device.
The
Y70 Touch gaming laptop comes in three variants and is available to buy
from Lenovo’s US online store. The three models – 80DU000EUS,
80DU000NUS, and 80DU000HUS – are priced at $1,399.99, $1,499.99 , and
$1,689.00 respectively. Lenovo also said that the laptops will be
available with major retailers in October.
The only fact that may not go down well with its prospective buyers is
its weight; the Lenovo Y70 Touch laptops weigh a hefty 3.4kgs.
The three models of the
Y70 Touch gaming laptops are powered by the fourth-generation Intel Core
i7-4710HQ Processor (2.50GHz, 4 cores, 8 threads, 6MB cache).
The difference between the three variants is in system memory, dedicated
GPUs, and in-built storage. All three models of the Lenovo Y70 Touch
run Windows 8.1 64-bit OS and sport a 17.3-inch full-HD LED anti-glare
multi-touch display. An integrated HD (720p) webcam is also included.
The
three Lenovo Y70 Touch laptop variants also share the connectivity
features including Bluetooth 4.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11 ac/b/g/n, as well as
the same battery – a 4-cell 54-Watt Hour Li-Po. Sized at
422.9×290.6×25.9mm, the Lenovo Y70 Touch laptops boast stereo speakers
powered by JBL alongside a backlit keyboard for easy typing during low
light conditions.
