While not as big as its showing at CES earlier this year, Lenovo unveiled more products at Mobile World Congress. For its laptop and two-in-one lineup, the company showed off three models.
Yoga 710
The new Yoga 710 comes in 11- and 14-inch variants starting at $499 and $799, respectively. In addition to the traditional laptop stance, both devices can also flex to a stand, tent and tablet format. The 11-inch laptop seems to be built more for portability, whereas the 14-inch device is meant for those who need more connectivity, as evidenced by its multiple ports.

Yoga 510 (aka "Flex 4")
Just like the Yoga 710, the Yoga 510 laptops can also flex to stand, tent and tablet postures. Its main feature is the so-called Yoga Rapid Recharge, which apparently charges the battery to 100 percent in two-and-a-half hours. The battery life for the Yoga 510 is eight-and-a-half hours (with HD video playback).

One More Lenovo Ideapad
Rounding out the list is the Ideapad Miix 310. The two-in-one device features a 10.1-inch IPS screen and a battery life of 10 hours (based on video playback). The Miix 310 also includes a detachable keyboard, and an adjustable hinge that should provide various viewing angles while you watch movies or shows. The Ideapad Miix 310 will cost you $229.

Coming Very Soon
If you want to get any of these five devices, you won’t have to wait long. Lenovo plans to release the Yoga 510 in April and the Yoga 710 in May. The Ideapad Miix 310 comes out one month later in June. However, another Lenovo document mentioned a different release date for all three devices: The Ideapad will come out in June, while the Yoga 510 and 710 will be available in July. We'll provide an update on the final release date once Lenovo clarifies the discrepancy.
