[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop is superb! It hits that perfect spot between a tablet and a desktop. I can pick it up and take it to client meetings without having to worry about the battery being charged, since it lasts so long. The integrated pen essentially gives me a portable whiteboard where I can collaborate with my team and my clients at all times. I use it to run two other monitors frequently so I can have a big, large screen experience as well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great laptop, design is very modern, with leather top and single piece glass for palm rest and touch pad. Top performance for i7 Intel, also Iris Xe integrated GPU is comparable to some business laptops external GPU. Perfect tool for multi functional use.

Very difficult to press the left and right click buttons on the touchpad, I had to buy an external mouse to work with this. Screen jitters sometimes for no reason. Very disappointed with the feel of the touchpad, I have used many laptops with no problem, never had to buy an external mouse before, but this touchpad is impossible to work with, my thumb is sore from pressing too hard.

Beautiful laptop, with some ugly quirks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this laptop because it checked all the boxes for what I was looking for.
Positives:
The laptop is absolutely gorgeous. Physically, the leather, metal, and glass all feel nice and look very premium.
Response times seem almost instantaneous and very rarely is there a hiccup. I bought the version with the 1185g7 and it can actually game very well. I was pleasantly surprised coming from a gaming laptop with an nvidia GTX 2070. Obviously it comes nowhere near to that graphically but, with the right settings, can provide a very respectable gaming experience. On all Low settings and with resolution set to 720p (barely noticeable on a screen this small) I average 45-60 fps with Doom Eternal, which even gives me a nice, big warning that the game is not currently supported by Intel. Not bad at all.
I also opted for a 1080p screen for battery and performance reasons. Once again, barely noticeable on a screen this small. I have to get my face within a foot of the screen and squint to see the pixels. It does look fantastic though and gets plenty bright. Shame it's only 60hz.
The battery really does last forever, also. I've been able to bring this to work and leave it open on my desk, unplugged, without even hitting the halfway mark on my battery bar by the end of the day. Gaming obviously does drag this down a bit, but having tried it, I'm still very impressed with how little power it drains. Not gaming, I've been able to get 12 hours of battery life out of it. Probably about 4-5 with anything really graphics intensive.
Negatives:
The first laptop I received was faulty. The pen would die almost instantly, and neither of the buttons on it would work. The laptop itself also struggled with fullscreen video, particularly on YouTube. Video output would freeze while audio continued.
Support sent me a new laptop and, while the pen charges properly, one of the buttons still doesn't work. I'd rather just deal with it than go through the trouble of replacing my entire laptop again. I also had the same issue with YouTube, which I was able to correct by downloading a graphics driver directly from Intel. (Intel doesn't recommend doing this, but I have had no issues since installing the updated driver. My gaming performance even improved!)
The built in fingerprint reader struggles to pick up my fingerprint. I've messed with it quite a bit and finally just gave up out of frustration. Not a huge issue since it wasn't a make-or-break feature for me, but I could see others being very upset with this.
My final complaint would be the wireless card. In both laptops, this laptop struggles to pick up WiFi in my office when no other device I own does. Disappointing considering it's supposed to be the fancy new WiFi 6. I was able to fix this by moving my router closer to my office, but it was still pretty inconvenient.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this one as a replacement for an old Yoga 3 Pro. So far this ones working great and set up was super fast. The pen is a nice upgrade to my old Yoga 3 Pro where I wished I had something like this. The black leather is also a very sharp/professional look. I only wish it had an SD card slot but this is not a major issue for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my wife and shee loves it. Bright screen, very responsive and it only weighs 3 pounds, less than my 14" chromebook.
