The Yoga 5G is the first laptop powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx 5G Compute platform. Pricing information is unavailable at this time, but the device will be available in the Spring of 2020.
Lenovo states that the Yoga 5G is the world's first PC with 5G support, according to Lenovo, but it's worth pointing out that HP also recently announced the HP Dragonfly 5G.
