Very Good Laptop, a few quirks.
|Posted .It should be known that I registered the default Windows OS it comes with to my Microsoft account and then immediately formatted the PC with Linux (Fedora). IT comes loaded with some vendor software that I did not bother to look at. Overall, it performs very admirably. I am quite impressed with it. Quick, decent battery life, touch screen with a pen is awesome. and it folds into tablet mode. What's not to love? It's a great ultrabook style laptop. I highly recommend it. For anyone considering loading Ubuntu or Fedora on this laptop from personal experience I can tell you I had a few issues I needed to deal with to get it working. Firstly, you will need to disable Secure Boot in the BIOS (WARNING THIS WILL ERASE YOUR HDD COMPLETELY!!!) to get wifi working. You can install Linux with it enabled but it will likely affect your wifi hardware and prevent it from working. The next thing, on Ubuntu 18.04 I had to blacklist a kernel module ideapad to get WIFI working, this was not the case on Fedora 29 (dunno why). This was accomplished by running the command sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf <<< "blacklist ideapad_laptop" The fingerprint reader does not work in Linux. Synaptic refuses to release drivers for it. Which I think Lenovo, being a supporter of Linux, should change hardware vendors in that case. The pen however works fantastic if you load on xOrg and not Wayland. Wayland is still to young to work properly IMHO on just about any device.

So many problems
|Posted .Since I bought this one I’m not happy, sales people says it’s high rated one but trust me guys it’s worthy I bought on jun 14 th I guess with 15 days my screen started acting weird and blinking very often, I went back to the store and the manager didn’t respond proper came up with some story that he fix it and I need to leave it for an week which made mad totally. Finally he gave new after I showed video proof, and the second one key pad cursor is moving one place to another place when try to prepare some documents or trying type something. I’m out of my patience guys. I DONT RECOMMEND THIS STUPID LAPTOP...

Posted .We are sorry to hear you are having issues with the touchpad on your Yoga 730-15. With regard to the touchpad, you can make adjustments to the touchpad in your system settings. You can get there by clicking on the magnifying glass at the bottom left of your Windows 10 screen. Type "touchpad" in the search window. Select "Mouse & touchpad settings" from the list of choices. You can make general adjustments to the touchpad there. You can also select "Additional mouse options" for more detailed adjustments to the touchpad sensitivity by increasing the delay of the touchpad.
