Lenovo Yoga 2 review: Flexible and affordable

Laptops are not in a great state. Samsung and Sony have already announced their departure from the market altogether. The money's just not there anymore, and companies need to adapt to survive. Lenovo's Yoga series is this kind of evolution in action....

Decent display colour, light and portable, quiet, handy tilt mechanism, far more affordable than predecessor

Not very powerful, chunky and awkward as a tablet

Appreciating the Lenovo Yoga 2 11 is all about managing your expectations as it doesn’t offer the screen quality of a dedicated tablet or the battery life of a MacBook Air.

Lenovo Yoga 2 13 review

Lenovo's Yoga remains one of the best computer designs to result from the release of Windows 8.

The Lenovo Yoga 2 13 is an excellent ultrabook combined with the flexibility of fully rotating hinges giving you the feel of a regular well-constructed laptop as well as other positions to take advantage of Window 8.1 and the 1080p touchscreen.

Few ports and connections and its 802.11n Wi-Fi means you're not getting the latest and greatest. Somewhat heavy to use as a hand-held tablet.

If you can't quite afford the Yoga 2 Pro but still want a full-time laptop and a part-time tablet, the 13-inch Lenovo Yoga 2 is an excellent choice.

Lenovo Yoga 2 (13-inch) Review

The new Yoga 2 boasts a 1080p touchscreen and 4th-gen Intel processor, but it doesn't keep pace with the latest from Acer, Dell and HP.

Overall, the Lenovo Yoga 2 13 should be called the Yoga 1.5. While it’s certainly better than its predecessor, the new model feels like an incremental update. That wouldn’t be a problem if the Yoga was frequently updated, but we’ve been waiting well...

Lenovo Yoga 2 13 Core i5 1.60GHz, black

With its 360-degree flip-and-fold body, you get the look and feel of a regular thin-and-light laptop, but with the added flexibility to use it as a tablet just by folding the screen back. You can also tent it, which is nice for playing games, or use...

Few ports and connections and its 802.11n Wi-Fi means you're not getting the latest and greatest. Somewhat heavy to use as a hand-held tablet.

Yoga's winning hybrid design, now available for less

It's a modest, but good update to the original, but this convertible laptop is facing steep competition from others including Lenovo's own Yoga 2 Pro.

Lenovo Yoga 2 13

The Lenovo Yoga 2 13 is a well-designed convertible hybrid laptop, but the construction feels flimsier than that of previous iterations, and good-but-not-stellar performance doesn't help it stand out from the crowd.

Excellent convertible design. Good performance and long battery life.

Construction quality has dropped from previous Yogas.

Conclusion All in all, the Lenovo Yoga 2 13 is a solid convertible hybrid laptop with good, but not stellar performance, and it doesn't quite live up to the build quality of past and current Yoga models. The convertible category is hit or miss, so we...

Lenovo Yoga 2 13 Review

Remember Lenovo's Yoga 2 Pro ? The company has rolled out a similar model, the Yoga 2 13, featuring the same multi-mode design and similar specs. Aimed at the more casual user, the Yoga 2 13 rests on the foundation set by its higher-res sibling, but...

The Lenovo Yoga 2 13 feels like a big laptop, and not in a bad way — despite some issues with having to readjust how you type (the right shift key is small) and some snafus with the trackpad (there were some sensitivity issues), the laptop is a solid...

Lenovo may be developing a Yoga Book 2 Pro for some reason

The Lenovo Yoga Book was probably one of the strangest computers to . At first glance, the Yoga Book looks like a laptop with a convertible design that lets you tuck the keyboard behind the screen for use in tablet mode,

But Lenovo already sells a number of convertible notebooks with physical keyboards under its Yoga and ThinkPad Yoga lines, so if the company is keeping the Yoga Book name alive, it seems likely that there will be

Disappointing - new parts are unobtainable from China.

I brought mine from John Lewis based on Which Review. I found the screen size just a little on the small size for me. However, build quality felt good and it seemed to cope quite well with my usage (Masters Mature student at University). However, after...
