Accroding to IDC and Gartner, Lenovo has a total of 12,677,265 units shipped during the 2nd quarter of this year, amounting to a total market share of 16.7%. HP took the second spot with a total of 12,402,887 units shipped or equal to 16.3% market share. Dell on the other hand landed on the third spot with almost 9 million units shipped at 11.8% market share, followed by Acer and ASUS.

It also worth noting that this quarter’s shipments from major PC vendors listed above are fewer compared to last year’s. A sign that the market is still in a slow decline.

“The PC market is changing, but it still represents a $200b opportunity. Lenovo can capture more of this opportunity than our competitors because we have built great balance over the last 4 years.” said Yang Yuanqing, Chairman & CEO of Lenovo. “PC leadership is just one milestone in a longer journey to become a true leader in the “PC Plus” market, which includes tablets, smart phones, smart TVs and other “smart connected” devices.”

Lenovo launches IdeaPad Yoga 13

Lenovo has launched its latest touch-optimized convertible Ultrabook that once again, merges the functionality of a notebook and a tablet – the IdeaPad Yoga 13 .

If the ThinkPad Twist twists and folds its display to turn into a tablet, the IdeaPad Yoga 13 does things differently by utilizing a hinge that lets the display move 360 degrees. This allows the Yoga to easily turn from a laptop into a tablet just by folding. It’s a pretty cool feature but feels weird since the entire keyboard will be touching the surface, or your hands, when in tablet mode.

As for the display, the Yoga has a 13.3-inch HD+ display with multi-touch functionality and IPS for good viewing angles. Like the Twist, the Yoga 13 offers four modes of operation: laptop, tablet, tent and stand. Just choose which mode is most comfortable depending on the task you’ll be handling.

Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 specs:
13.3″ HD+ (1600 x 900) IPS display; 16:9 aspect ratio
Intel Core i5-3317U (1.7GHz)
128GB SSD
4GB DDR3 RAM
Intel HD 4000 graphics
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 4.0
USB 2.0 (x1)
USB 3.0 (x1)
3-in-1 card reader
1MP, 720p HD webcam
stereo speakers
HD graphics support & HDMI output
Windows 8
333.4 x 224.8 x 16.9 mm
1.54kg
2 years parts and labour warranty

The IdeaPad Yoga 13 has a price tag of Php60,995 and will arrive by end of December.
