The ThinkPad X1 Yoga is Lenovo’s business-oriented 360-degree 2-in-1 laptop. I underwent a significant upgrade in its 6th generation, with the ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 7 model upgrading the components for faster speeds and better battery life. Now, Lenovo has released the 8th generation, and again it switches up the internals and leaves the external chassis alone.

But the changes in CPUs weren’t simply an upgrade to the 13th-gen versions of the previous model’s processors. Instead, Lenovo switched to 13th-gen low-power CPUs in most configurations. 

Lenovo’s pricing and configuration can be all over the map and constantly changes. So it’s hard to nail down sometimes. But, we can say that the ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 8 maintains the premium price of its predecessor, starting out at $2,650 on Lenovo’s website with an Intel Core i5-1335U, 16GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD, and a 14.0-inch WUXGA (1920 x 1200) IPS display.
