Just for the record: a 1730Mbps Wireless 9260NGW Wifi Network Card For Intel 9260 Dual Band NGFF 2x2 802.11ac Wifi Bluetooth 5.0 will work for a Yoga 720 13IKB and will add Bluetooth 5.1 to your device :)

Just wanted to add I just swapped my 720-13IKB’s wifi module for a Intel AX200 (Only version i could buy was in a “desktop kit”)

and it worked out of the box! AX201 / AX210 or newer are a different kind of m.2 wifi and wont work with the 720 13IKB according to reddit.

Now I’m easily getting 350 down on my 5Ghz 40HT (Wifi6 WPA3) network!, Old card didn’t support my new WPA3 wifi and could only get 100ish down.
