They exist, these special moments, when you realize that Chromebooks have made a lasting impression. For example, when Samsung gave its new model the noble brand “Galaxy” last spring. Or when Lenovo (still itching to type “IBM”) gives a device its prestigious name “Thinkpad”.
Admittedly, the “Thinkpad C13 Yoga Chromebook” is not the first Chromebook that is allowed to carry this title. The 11e model — still listed on Lenovo’s website — also has this name, but the original model dates back to 2014. And after all, IT years are almost comparable to dog years.
So, a lot of time has passed until the new Chromebook Thinkpad. And this time, Lenovo is not targeting the educational market only, but has business users in mind in terms of features and price.

The newcomer is available in three versions; starting with AMD’s “Athlon Gold 3150C” (two cores at 2.40 GHz), followed by the “Ryzen 3 3250C” (two cores at 2.60 GHz) up to the “Ryzen 5 3500C” (four cores at 2.10 GHz).
In fact, Lenovo has not been averse to ARM processors for quite some time: Three high-priced Windows Thinkpads also rely on this x86 offshoot. Thus, the adaptation into the Chromebook lineup was an obvious…
