Great Student Laptop
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the Yoga 3 Pro and Surface Pro 3 before this, and I am much happier now with the Yoga ThinkPad. The Yoga 3 Pro pales in comparison. The ThinkPad, on the other hand, It is very well built, and has one of the best keyboards I have ever used in a laptop. The Pen is just as good, if not better than the surface pro 3. I have small hands so the small stylus does not bother me. The Display is gorgeous, and I do not find myself missing the higher res displays of the yoga 3 pro or sp3. This model also comes with the new skylake i5, which is much zippier than the core m chip on the yoga 3 pro. It also has a dedicated GPU that makes gaming a better experience then the other two laptops. Pros: Performance, Keyboard, Trackpad, Integrated Graphics, Stylus, Battery life, Display, SSD, Sturdy Build, not as much bloatware as yoga 3 pro Cons: Fingerprint magnet, Weight

Video card issues over time.

Posted .Thank you for choosing the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 2-14. This sounds like a driver update issue, especially since it sounds as though when you update the drivers it works for a while then the problem comes back. It could be an automatic Windows 10 update that is causing the conflict. Create a restore point once you update the drivers. That way you can restore back to the good configuration if the problem comes back. Follow the link below to look for new driver updates for your specific system. You can also run diagnostics from the Lenovo site as well. As always, be sure to create a restore point on your system before you make any changes. Here is the link:

Amazing convertible ThinkPad with a digitizer
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me start off with the bad news by saying that I had to go through 2 exchanges before I was able to get a perfectly functional unit, which has never happened to me before with any electronic device. The first unit was a Geek Squad certified open box, and the second unit was new. I have been an avid fan of ThinkPads for many years now, and this was actually my first time encountering one that wasn't perfectly functional out of the box after having owned 5 ThinkPads. Now for the good part of the review. Best Buy's customer service was amazing and exchanged the defective units hassle free. They also adjusted the prices to match the current on-sale price hassle free. I have never had such a great experience with customer service, so I will not let my bad luck with the first 2 units skew this review. Let's start with the things that the user would touch the most. The keyboard is amazing, like all ThinkPad keyboards that I've ever used. There are several manufacturers for the keyboard (as one can see from the parts list), one version has mushier arrow keys than the other one. I'm a touch typist so the backlight isn't a big deal to me, but yes, it's there, the keyboard is backlit. The TrackPoint works great. The trackpad is a hinge based one and only clicks on the bottom 75% or so easily, although this is subject to individual unit variance and some might click less easily on the upper spots than others. Lots of gestures (including middle button), so it's by far the best trackpad I've used on a Windows machine. The touch screen works well in my use, except the minor detail that it does fall asleep after a period of inactivity and takes an extra tap to re-activate. The pen works much better than the ones on older ThinkPad X series Tablets, but is a bit on the thin side. Speaking of the screen, there are 2 different suppliers: Samsung and BOE-Hydis. Throughout my units, I've seen both. The Samsung screen is the more common one, it is the brighter one of the two and shows a weird matrix that blurs the image on screen depending on the angle. The hypothesis is that it uses PenTile subpixels. The BOE-Hydis one behaves a lot more like a traditional IPS panel, and does not show distortion with viewing angle. In terms of colour, they are about equal with the BOE-Hydis one being warmer. The screen definitely isn't a top of the line IPS display, but it is a huge step up from the TN panels that they install in other laptops. The 1080p resolution is perfect for the size of the laptop. The CPU is fast enough for all my needs, and so is the 940M GPU. The only problem I have is that the GPU starts gradually throttling at 75 C, and the CPU starts throttling at 80 C, which makes it downclock when used at max load for extended periods of time (>15 minutes) running Linpack and Furmark. I haven't noticed a problem in actual use with benchmarking using Unigine Heaven or playing League of Legends, so it is just me nitpicking. The chassis near the vent does get really hot, though. The other aspects? Build quality is excellent, as one would expect from a ThinkPad. Speakers are OK, nothing to write home about, but they play sound and don't sound particularly bad. No low frequencies at all, though. Battery life is decent, around 7 ~ 8 hours usually of use for me. Yes, there are display driver issues on some units, but they are fixed with the latest driver update from Intel. Overall, despite my poor initial experiences, I will not hesitate to give this laptop a 5 star, even at its full asking price. This is an amazing product, and Best Buy has given me unmatched service. I have in fact recommended it to several friends already. I look forward to doing business with Best Buy again in the future.

DO NOT BUY A LENOVO! It's a lemon.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 14" laptop (20FY0002US) was purchased for my daughter in August 2016 to use at college. The laptop failed the first time in November 2016 (would not boot up/could not turn on). We have a Geek Squad Support plan (basic warranty, i.e., no extended warranty). Geek Squad could not repair and had to ship it to Lenovo to replace the board (took about 2 weeks to get back.) Having similar problems again now in March 2017 -- having difficulty starting up (tries to restart repeatedly; takes about 20 minutes to start up and turn on; screen flickers after it starts up while using; very unreliable). Best Buy Lemon policy applies to same incident happening 3 times within a certain time period (so we have to let it happen a 3rd time to get something else to replace it) so expect much aggravation. Currently looking at other options to get rid of this (want to replace it with another brand ultimately). Something is wrong with the electronics. We paid $750 for this laptop with a college student discount; retails for around $900 and is currently on sale for $800, so this is not a cheaply priced laptop. Did extensive research on laptops at the time of purchase including looking at reviews, and it appeared to be the best option for the money compared to laptops with similar capabilities, memory, etc. So buyer beware!! Don't buy ANYTHING made by this company.

Budget Dream Machine? Sign Me Up!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I work in the Tech Department of a local High School and was recently sent on a quest to find the perfect Laptop for teachers. We came to 2 different laptops. This one (at $899) and the $1149 Spectre. After comparing the 2, this was the clear winner. (The spectre is still a slick machine, It's just pricey and lacks what this guy has) Every piece of this computer screams 'built like a tank'. It's VERY durable, including a retracting keyboard that recesses into the chassis whenever the computer folds into tent or tablet mode. The Stylus is very good. it recharges when placed into the pen holster (which is IN the chassis) and only takes about 30 seconds to get roughly 15 minutes of use, it stays charged for hours on end so charging is rarely a problem. There's no distance from the drawing surface, and boasts a high level of sensitivity (Its developed by Wacom). It has about 0.1 seconds of lag behind the stylus but VERY minor compared to many other art tablets. Only con here is the lack of Tilt detection. Did I mention this comes with a discrete 940M Graphics chip? Cause it does. It turns this into a VERY cheap gaming laptop. The RAM is also upgradeable to 16GB of RAM for those who want to pursue photo/video editing. All of this packed with a slick 2-in-1 design and a nice 6th gen i5 (you don't REALLY need that i7) makes the $899 price tag a steal, and it's not even on sale. ---Cons (all of which are minor)--- Lenovo has a history of installing spyware on their consumer laptops and this laptop DOES have spyware preinstalled. Going into the task schedule, you will find a task called 'Lenovo Customer Feedback Program 64' which is set to report to Lenovo daily. The good news is it is easily disabled, which lets me keep a 5-star rating on this laptop (honestly, it's much harder to disable all the information that windows gathers from EVERY windows machine, but I'm reviewing this laptop, not Windows). However, it's this kind of issue that prevents this brand from being purchased by government and military agency's. It's really Lenovo's loss. You could argue that Bloatware is a concern, but most of the software is specific to Lenovo and easily uninstalled if you would like a more barebones system. The only other beef I have with it is that the Stylus is holstered on the Left side instead of the Right, so most people (unless you're left-handed) will need to switch this to the other hand once you've pulled it out, or want to put it back in. Drawing can be interesting if you're used to drawing on paper, because the glass screen makes it feel like drawing on a whiteboard. The stylus kinda glides everywhere. If you're an artist, I recommend either a screen protector to give the screen some grit, or adding a felt tip to the stylus. ---- TL;DR ---- Buy this (why wouldn't you?), disable the spyware, and enjoy a smooth ride.

Awesome!! (as long as you're not using Wifi)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, I loved everything about this hybrid! All the reviews were right, except one little detail. Did I miss it, or why didn't anybody tell me that for some reason, the folks at Lenovo decided to install a wifi adapter from - I dunno, 1996? Literally EVERYTHING else about it is excellent - you should get one. Just don't plan to go online with it. I had to go back and pay $65 more to buy an external USB-based Wifi Adapter. Now, it's perfect.
