[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new aluminum design surprise me, but I still prefer the old classic look. BUT Keyboard texture felt weird typing on (weird coating) and the trackpoint 3 button sound and felt unsolid compare to my 3rd gen X1 yoga. Other then this two issue I am quite happy with the purchase. Just that maybe can cramp a higher pixel privacy display will even makes it more complete.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far, I am loving this computer. I usually go with the traditional ThinkPad like the P series, but I am totally hooked on this one. It is light, portable, and plenty powerful enough to run the many windows that I always have open. I currently have no less than 30 tabs open on my browser, 10 word documents, multiple PDF's open, and at times at least 4 different spreadsheets. I thought the facial recognition to login in was going to be a gimmick that didn't work all that well, but it has been fantastic. No more finger print scanning, or typing in my pin. I stare at the screen for about a second and boom... I'm in. My only wish would be to be able to swap out batteries or be able to add a bigger one. With my last work computer, I was able to add a much bigger battery for longer duration of without having to search for a power cord. I know it seems trivial, but to be able to replace or add a bigger battery is very helpful.
I've owned most Yogas since #1, this isn't my fave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A ram socket, or more built in ram, would be nice. The included RAM is always pretty full, along with a 10-20GB page file; fortunate that I replaced the SSD with a WD-SN850 for PCIE4 peak performance, so it works satisfactorily with heavy software such as Creative Cloud. I've fixed my swap file size at 32GB (base 2 so 2^15 bytes, 33.5ish in base-10). Also, things like two 2280 M-key SSD ports would be nice, as it appears that the only B-keyed 2242 SSDs I can find are of the SATA3 type, and generally from brands I've had crap experiences with. B-keyed m.2 devices can support 2xPCIE lanes, no? I suppose since my primary concern is partial redundancy if ever I have a problem syncing to my ~60TB server back home. Maybe I ought to just get and LTE (or 5G?) Card & some prepaid service for on the go. Fortunately my house is all wifi 6'd and 2.5Gbps wired up so no service drops at home, and my city has hotspots for subscribers to the dominant ISP like, everywhere. Unlimited net at home & I never use all of the un-throttled hotspot data from VZW.
The ax200/ax201 is a fantastic wifi card, range and speed are both fantastic. First *actual* gigabit wifi I've experienced.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely LOVE my new laptop! It is the perfect size although I was very hesitant to choose a 14 inch since I am so accustomed to a 16-17 inch screen. However, I am loving to portability of this size. I have worked remotely since 2006 and since switching up the sizes the days I decide to work outside of my home have been so much better in regards to getting myself situated for work. Everything about this laptop is high-end and I am so happy that I went with the Lenovo Yoga!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Incredibly happy with this device! It has the power I want and need and the price didn't make it a "Wish List" Item! I was pleasantly surprised with the product overall!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the laptop for short of a month and enjoying the experience thus far. It is taking me time to fully utilize all the specs because there's so much you can do on this light weight but super laptop. I want to maximize use. It works great in yoga mode. I haven't lost battery life, though can feel heat after 2 hours and then fans kick in to cool it down. It is so light to carry, it almost feels like a tablet or hardcover book. It is implacably fast installing software and downloading large files. I am so impressed. the best safety feature is the closure on camera. I am just loving it. Though bought way above my budget, I find the extra expenditure is worth it. I also received great customer service support during the buying and post buying process. I had an issue with fingerprint reading and I was supported within less than 24 hours.
