Lenovo Yoga C940

[rsutter]

Hello All,
I just purchased a Lenovo C940 touchscreen laptop from BestBuy for $1,199 plus tax.
See https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-yoga-c940-2-in-1-14-4k-ultra-hd-touch-screen-laptop-intel-core-i7-16gb-memory-512gb-ssd-32gb-optane-mica/6369421.p
This will be a Christmas gift.
It incorporates many of the features of my current Lenovo X1 Yoga at about half the price.
Relevant specs for the new machine  (For a more exhaustive list see https://www.fullbean.com/computer/yogac940.jpg)
Screen Resolution:  3840 x 2160 (4K)
Processor:  10th gen Intel i7 1.3ghz
Screen Size:  14"
Memory:  16Gb
Storage:  512Gb SSD with Optane Accelerator
2-in-1 Design
Fingerprint reader
Stylus
Headphone Jack
Number of USB 3.0 Type A Ports 1
Number of Thunderbolt 3 Ports 2

Features lacking
No card reader
Only 1 USB 3.0 Type A Port
No Ethernet Jack

All in all, I think that it will more than meet the needs of the person to whom I will gift it.

Is it correct that the keys are backlit?

For a couple of dollars each you can purchase USB-C to USB-A adapters. I have them in my bag of adapters but sadly never use them.

A few other options that I have and use to expand ports.

I just purchased this as a docking station for 3 devices which have Thunderbolt 3 ports.

Hi Dick,
Though the specs indicate that the keys are backlit, they are not.
