Lenovo Yoga

This said, in normal day-to-day usage, we experienced closer to six to eight hours of life, depending on the screen brightness and CPU saturation.

The display uses an IPS panel in order to provide wide viewing angles and maintain the thin profile of the Yoga 13.

Best Buy released an alternative version of the Yoga 13 with an Intel Core i5 processor (vs. Lenovo's base model's i3 processor) and no Microsoft Office (whereas Lenovo's base model includes Microsoft Office).

[1][4] The Yoga 11 is powered by a quad-core Nvidia Tegra 3 that runs at a maximum clock speed of 1.3 GHz and features an integrated graphics processor.

This relatively small amount of RAM is sufficient due to the reduced memory requirements of Windows RT applications.

Lenovo implemented this design in response to complaints about its earlier Yoga 13 and 11 models being awkward to use in tablet mode.

The Yoga 2 11 has a subtle rubber trim around the edge of its top half in order to prevent slipping on hard surfaces when in tent mode.

It weighs 3.1 pounds, is 0.61 inch thick and has tapered edges, giving it an appearance more like a conventional ultrabook laptop vs the earlier model's "book-like" symmetrical design.

The Yoga 2 Pro features a 360-Degree Flip-and-Fold design that encompasses four modes—laptop, stand, tablet, and tent mode and has a subtle rubber trim around the edge of its top half in order to prevent slipping on hard surfaces when in tent mode.

It comes with a backlit AccuType keyboard and features stereo speakers with Dolby Home Theater.

Unlike earlier Yoga products, the home button has a touch-key on the bottom center of the display.

Lenovo moved the power button away from the front and to the side in order to prevent accidental key presses.

The 13.3-inch screen uses in-plane switching (IPS) technology, has a high resolution QHD+ (3200×1800) 10-point multitouch display, and a brightness of 350 nits.

The Yoga 2 Pro has Intel Wireless Display technology in order to conform to the Ultrabook specification.

[12] An upgraded version was added in February 2014, called Lenovo Yoga Tablet 10 HD+, which featured a full HD display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.

The Yoga 3 can also be placed in "tent mode" where it acts as a stand for itself while hiding its keyboard for activities like watching movies.

[13] The Yoga 3 Pro is thin Broadwell-based 13.3-inch touchscreen laptop with a hinge that allows for use as a tablet and other configurations.

It is much less bulky and forms a continuous curved shape from the chassis of the laptop to the bottom of the screen.

[16] In a review for PC World, Elias Plastiras wrote, "It's super-light and easy to handle as a laptop and as a tablet, and it feels good to type on for long periods of time.

It can tend to get noticeably warm when you're streaming video or performing other tasks that make plenty of use of the CPU and Wi-Fi adapter, and the battery life is also not great, primarily due to the large screen resolution that needs a lot of power to be bright.

It uses Core i5 and i7 Skylake-class processors from Intel, integrated graphics, 256-gigabyte or 512-gigabyte solid state drives, and up to 16 gigabytes of RAM.

Featuring the same "watchband hinge" as the Yoga 3 Pro, the major difference is that the traditional mechanical keyboard is replaced with a pressure-sensitive "Create Pad" that responds to an active stylus with 2,048 levels of pressure and a backlit, touch-sensitive "Halo Keyboard" with haptic feedback.

The device is powered by an Intel Atom x5 processor and has a 10.1-inch full HD screen, 4 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of internal storage with microSD card expansion support, Dolby Atmos stereo speakers, and optional 4G LTE.

Expanding on the C930's soundbar hinge, this model enlarges it and allows a single-hinge system, which enriches audio quality.

It includes 10th-Gen processors up to the Core i9 HK Series, two Thunderbolt 3 ports, and a GPU up to Nvidia’s GTX 1650 Ti with Max-Q design.

[36] The Yoga Slim 7 features AMD's Ryzen 4000 mobile processor, with a weight of 1.4 kg and a battery life of up to 14 hours.

[39] Many users have discovered that a Linux operating system cannot be installed on many Yoga models[update] including the 900 ISK2, 900 ISK for business and 710.

[40][41] The reason that Linux cannot be installed is that Lenovo have implemented the solid state drive (SSD) on these models in RAID mode rather than the more usual AHCI.

Lenovo states that these BIOSes should not be used for Windows operating systems (obviously as they prefer most users to remain on the industry supported bios, unless they have a reason not to.

[44] Lenovo customer support has been heavily criticised for refusal to repair this apparent design flaw under standard, enhanced or accidental damage warranties.
