[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am reviewing the Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 2 Gen 6.
In general, I love Lenovo Yoga Thinkpads because they have enough power for limited CAD work and the touchscreen allows me to sign docs from the screen, saving a lot of time. The touchscreen also allows me to rotate CAD models, which is helpful.
While the Intel Iris Xe graphics are much better than 3rd generation, the graphics chip is still quite weak in comparison to competing devices.
Also, I was discouraged by darker, poor screen colors than in prior generations. My gen 3 had a brilliant OLED screen that gives vivid colors, especially reds. The gen 6 screen is drab in comparison, which was a significant disappointment.
Lastly, the laptop size has shrunk to 14" from 15.5", which was disappointing. Smaller bezel, but I miss the larger screen.
Lastly, there is some weird stuff on pricing and configuration. In general, I prefer to build my own system from options but this year the Lenovo website offers none. Further, the model I want is some days around $2400 and other days around $1400. Either the website is buggy or Lenovo is playing games with pricing--not sure which. I ended up buying online from New Egg because prices were low and were the same from day to day.
Very solid performer, but I sure wish the screen was prettier. Not great for movies.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it! Compared to my last laptop, which was old, I forgot how quick the newer ones are able to process! I needed it for my business and I am more than pleased. I appreciate all of the functions and the convenience of it! This is my third Lenovo. I highly recommend.
