    First off, the size and speed are great for what I am using it for which is at home, family and some work projects. The screen has great resolution and a vivid picture. The one drawback is having to buy an external DVD drive but it is perfect for travel and in areas with limited space. The only problems I have experienced was in the upgrade to Windows 10!

    This is a big step up from my last computer. The touch screen responds easily and the OS is fairly intuitive. I got this as an open box deal, with an extra 40% off and i know that it was a heck of a deal. The only thing that i didn't like was that it doesn't have a full sized HDMI port or a CD/DVD drive, but that's to be expected in slimmed down 2-in-1's, and it's easily rectified with an inexpensive external disc drive and a micro to regular sized HDMI Converter. the batter life isn't the best but all in all it's a good 2-in-1 for casual use, but probably not the best if you are planning on running anything with high graphics requirements.

    I love my yoga 2. It is easy to port, offers a lot for the price point and is a great laptop that folds into a tablet. I read on a black and white kindle and have an iPad and MacBook but I am always on this now. Great picture and lightweight. You can't go wrong for the price!

    I like the computer. It works great and I love the 2 in 1 capability. I debated a great deal between this computer and the Acer, but I ended up going with this one becaue BestBuy kept changing the price on the Acer. Its pretty fast and I do minor programming for school and it keeps up well. It's pretty light weight and I don't have any complaints except for the fact that at one point it and the Acer were the same price and this one only has a 500 GB hardrive while the Acer has a 1 TB. The Acer also had a i5 processor while this one only has an i3, but you pay for that with it being almost a pound and a half heavier, which can be quite uncomfortable carrying around campus. In the end, I am pretty satisified.

    I wanted device to replace my laptop and iPad and the Yoga 2 does just that. I've had it for about a month and I've been pretty happy with it. I like the size a lot. It's large enough that the screen is readable and keyboard is almost standard size. Small enough to tote around easily. It's speedy enough for general web surfing, reading books, most game apps, etc. I don't think this would be a good option for intense gaming, though. I do get an error message occasionally about the speaker not working. However, when I go through the speaker test, it works fine. Also, I wish the battery lasted longer. Overall, it's a good device for a low- to medium-end user who wants the versatility of a laptop and tablet in one device.

    This laptop is perfect for anyone. I would recommend this to a student or for a an older couple who want the new technology but cannot handle to much change. Although it is small and the screen is the size of a tablet that is one of the awesome things about it because it can turn into one. I would've loved to get the yoga 2 with a faster processor and more ram. You see what you get so make sure you have a portable hard drive so you don't overload this laptop.

    The Lenovo Yoga is a great portable device for simple tasks. I use it in class everyday, take notes on Microsoft Office 2013 and have easy access to the apps on Windows 8 OC. The battery life is decent, although it doesn't hold up as long as I had hoped for being a few weeks old (about 2.5-3 hours max). My only strong complaint is that Lenovo put malware on many of their new computers, which inhibited me from using the internet for two days until it was removed. I would not have bought this brand if I knew the company had done this. Otherwise, this product was recommended to me and has suited my needs well.

    Chose this as a laptop for the size and price. Others options were either too small or too expensive. The fact that it folds into a tablet and has touch screen was not something I was originally looking for, but have come to like that feature. Overall happy with choice. Negatives are the amount of unwanted apps pre-loaded and the "hidden" shortcut bars on the side of the screen make the use of the mouse squirrelly at times as it will jump to different screens that I was not looking for

    I really like this computer, it gets the job done. I was worried that in a minimum signal area where I live that things like streaming, apps, and downloading might be a problem as far as reliability, consistency and speed, but it wasn't. It's an older processor (i3) with a newer platform (Microsoft Windows 8), but together they work well together. I don't use this for heavy photo editing, video processing, or business, but I do use it constantly to surf the web, read before bed, watch streaming media, and check e-mails. It's the best comparable to an older i3 processing ASUS brand computer as far as evolved technology is concerned and it's easy to use. I really like this computer in the aspect that it is a touch screen, and fold-able like a tablet. I would not recommend this for heavy gamer's, media productions, multi-tasking, or multiple downloading, but I would absolutely recommend it before I'd ever recommend an ipad, kindle, or samsung (or any brand) tablet, because of it's familiarity and user friendly interface and computer (PC) capabilities.

    I needed a personal computer and the major concern was the price, and after thorough review of all the products available in town at various vendors, i stumbled upon this one. Core i3 processor with 4 GB ram seemed a decent config. looks cheap when compared with the high end laptops available, but for whom price is a concern, this could be a decent choice. The yoga aspect is a killer as I tend to change modes when i operate depending on my other activities and stuff. Microsoft office works great and large excel files with multiple macros is of no issue either. software like MATLAB do test my patience, so dont expect huge programs and games to run seamlessly. The keypad looks cheap and not sturdy, another compromise I was willing to make for the price. Final Word: A good personal laptop mostly for browsing, documentation and entertainment, able to mold in different modes make life a bit easy.

    The Lenovo Yoga 2 is a great laptop for me because I am a college student that is constantly on the go. I was hesitant about the 2 in 1 laptops in general because I thought they were less sturdy thann your standard laptop, but I was wrong. I picked up my laptop in the Union Square store as an open box item with help from Hansel. He was helpful in informing me of the benefits of a standard and a 2 in 1 laptop before I landed on this one. So far it works really well, the keyboard is smooth, the screen flips around easily but I have yet to really use the tablet like feature. Overall a great laptop for the price.

    I've only owned the laptop for about a month now, and I've been using it for University courses. It works great! It's small, portable, and allows me to take notes easily without cluttering the tiny "desk" space given to us. It also works great in my anatomy classes because I can put it in table form and take pictures of the models we use easily.

    Great for work. It's portable, lightweight, the tablet/touchscreen features are awesome. The only improvement would be to move the power button. I accidentally push it all the time but aside from that minor thing, it's great.

    It has been a great computer so far. I love the versatility of the device: it can function as a "regular" laptop and as a touch screen pad. The 'younger' people in the household like the touchscreen, but I am more comfortable with the keypad. It works for all of us.

    I have just started my first year in college and was looking for a small, lightweight laptop that I could do all my work on and this Lenovo is a perfect fit. It boots up in under 15 seconds, has an amazing battery life, and is extremely fast and responsive. I only use it for online school work and web browsing (YouTube, online shopping, etc...) and so far I have had 0 complaints. I haven't tried any games on it and I don't plan to, this laptop was clearly made to be used as work first, play second. The touchscreen is darn near perfect and the computer itself is very quiet. It also doesn't get too hot, even if it's sitting on a blanket or some other sort of air restricting surface. When I bought it, it had windows 8.1 but as soon as I could get it connected to the Internet, it prompted me for a windows 10 upgrade and that was the first thing I did. I haven't had any problems with windows 10 or the hardware itself. Let me list a few of the pros and cons I have experienced so far. Pros: Very responsive and fast (even for an i3) Amazing battery life, both while in use and while on standby Very lightweight Great touch screen Great display Flawless tablet-to-laptop transitions Looks and feels sturdy and well put together. Worth the price Cons: Backspace button is smaller than it is on a traditional keyboard Keyboard is does not have a backlight Over all, I give it a 9.5/10. Very good computer.

    I like the lenova computer for its size, weight, performance, and ease of use. I don't like that the programming tries to get me to use lenova products when I am using Microsoft products/programs for all my work. I need compatibility in my computers.
