Lenovo - Yoga C740 2-in-1 15.6" Touch-Screen Laptop - Intel Core i7 - 12GB Memory - 512GB SSD - Iron Gray

While working from home, my old laptop froze up. I found this Lenovo Yoga C740 at Best Buy and picked it up from BB an hour later. Set up was easy and I was working again soon. I really like this Yoga for several reasons. Start up is quick and the fingerprint reader is way better than typing in a password. The laptop touch screen is responsive and the brightness and intensity of the colors is good for reading and watching streaming content. I have two 27 inch monitors hooked up to it so I can have several spreadsheets open at a time in addition to having my e mail open on the laptop screen, and there is no lag or hesitation when navigating between screens. I can multitask without any slowdown. The backlit keyboard also has a numeric keypad and the feel is solid and responds quickly. I have been using the Yoga C740 for about six weeks and I really enjoy using it. I think the features of the laptop make it easy to use for any one and I would recommend it to any one.

This is a fantastic laptop for all around general purpose computing! Extremely impressed with this machine @ $999. You get A LOT for your money here. Let's break it down. Display: This particular model as a 500 NIT brightness display with Dolby HDR 400. It's bright and crisp, and colors pop and have good uniformity. This makes it usable in brightly lit areas. Note that the HDR 400 won't really make HDR content look all the great because this is on the lower end of the HDR spec, but it still looks darn good. Also note that the other c740 model Best Buy sells only has a 250 NIT brightness display, for an extra $180 this is totally worth the upgrade. Build Quality: Is exceptional at this price point. The chasis is metal all around and feels very well put together. This material does NOT collect fingerprints AT ALL. Thank YOU Lenovo for this material choice. The hinge feels solid and the display doesn't have much flex in it. The design aethistic is very clean and minimal. Love it! Performance: You get a 10th gen I7 with 4 cores @ 1.8ghz up to 4.9ghz, with 8mb Cache. You get 12GB RAM (almost certain soldiered onto the board) running in dual channel mode. The hard drive is an NVME SSD + 32 gb of Intel Optane storage. This is plenty for running lots of apps at once. The laptop boots very quickly, and performance all around is snappy. This is a good solid combo of CPU/memory/ram. Keyboard: Lenovo generally makes great keyboards. I love that it has a 10 digit keypad because some of my work requires lot of number entries. It's also backlit and fairly uniform in it's lighting. I found it easier to type on this than the 14 inch c740. Trackpad: Works pretty well. No issues here. Battery: I haven't had much time using it off battery, but when I do a full charge is usually estimated around 8 hours. Ports: You get 2 usb-A and 2 usb-C, plus headphone/mic combo. Charging: The included charger is USB-C! YES! No more proprietary charging port. You can also charge this with a mobile battery pack! Awesome! Audio/Speakers: They are under the chasis near the front. The sound is fairly clean and clear, volume is louded than expected. They do not dissappoint for laptop speakers Lenovo knocked it out of the park with this model. They got everything right. The highlights being the 500 nit display, amazing build quality and materials, and the USB-C charging. You can't go wrong with this model. I'd recommend this laptop to anyone unless you want to do serious gaming. Students, general computing, even light to medium workloads. Most laptops compromise somewhere, but I can't find any real compromises on this model. 10/10. Would recommend!

Sturdy, fast, crisp screen, good volume, keyboard backight is very good. I love that it is not cheap, plastic. Perfect size for carrying it around. This is my first good laptop, and I don't let anyone else use it, but I wouldn't be afraid to let my kids as it is durable.

I have only owned this laptop for a little over a month but the look of the laptop is chic and stylish. Also, this laptop’s n battery life is outstanding. I can go all day without being charged and I still have enough battery life to finish a 15page research paper. Overall I am happy with my purchase.

I've had this laptop almost two months and was purchased sight unseen due to the pandemic. It's replacing a Samsung 7 spin that I absolutely loved, but both drives consecutively and inexplicably gave up the ghost. Everything works as expected considering the specs, but with one unanticipated pro and two unanticipated cons. I will not list additional pros or cons as they are either reasons I chose this laptop and should be expected, or were shortcomings that I knew of going into the purchase. Pro -The first time I used the laptop to consume media, I was really impressed with the speakers. I am by no means an audiophile, never taking sound into account during purchase, and all previous laptops/tablets have suited my needs well enough. However, this laptop impresses me with it's wide sound stage and excellent balance. Cons -I hate this keyboard. I have never made so many typing errors in my life. Although you get satisfying audio response while typing, the keys feel, I don't know...."squishy?" -The cooling system. Sometimes under normal use the laptop will get quite hot. So the fan kicks on with its usually-but-not-always-present high-pitched whine. And sometimes the fans rev up into what I can only refer to as an "aggressive" state (oddly, this typically occurs right after the laptop goes into sleep mode and doesn't seem to coincide with times when the laptop is noticeably hot to the touch). The cons are pretty annoying to me but were not worth the hassle of a return during pandemic and didn't truly become evident until after I had installed all my software and transfer my files. When this laptop comes due for a replacement, no tears will be shed.

I got this Lenovo during a sale, and it's my first one. I'm extremely happy and satisfied so far. The laptop is really fast, and the battery life is great (lasting for at least 8+ hours). It fulfills all my needs. If you are using it for Zoom, the camera quality is good enough (like other computers at this price range). One disadvantage about the privacy shutter - it's a little hard to move, but I don't really use it that much. Overall, I'm glad that I settled on this one.

Excellent Laptop for the price, and extremely fast and dependable.

I love my laptop! This laptop that has a folding screen which changes into an large size tablet. I game on this laptop, write, shop and browse the web all with ease. It has a fingerprint censor and a webcam shutter for added security. It has 2 brightness levels for the keyboard. The speakers sound nice. It’s fast and is a great laptop!
