Good Computer But Keyboard Problems
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really liked this computer but I had to return it because i had multiple issues with the keys sticking or the computer keyboard would freeze up or malfunction in some way after folding the computer back to laptop style from tablet style. In the store, I noticed that there were a large number of other YOGA laptops that were returned and sold as "Open Box". I didn't want to risk problems continuing so I ended up exchanging it. Other than that, It was fast and I really liked the functionality and design.

Perfect for students
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We were looking for a smaller light weight laptop for my daughter to carry back and forth to school and this 2-in-1 has been great. The touch screen can be a great feature but can also be annoying when first using it. Overall a good product for the price

Great all-around laptop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop was a gift for my mom. She absolutely loves it! I did a bit of research before going to the store and had it narrowed to 3 PCs. This little machine has powerful internals, but once you see the display it is game over. It is SO crisp!

Gets the job done
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved this laptop and amost everything still works great. The main features that sold me on this was that I could use it as a tablet and it was extremely light. I got tired of lugging around a heavy macbook on campus. Bought two of them and had issues with the touchscreen on one of them just a month or 2 in. My boyfriend didn't care too much about it, so we let it be. But my touchscreen stopped working today and I'm pretty disappointed about it. I used it a lot with games and used the pen to take notes. It was really convenient. Without the touchscreen working, the laptop no longer feels like a 2-in-1 and I feel like I wasted money. To top it off, when I looked into it, it seems to be a common issue with Lenovo. Also, the memory sucks and gets full super quick. That's my own fault for not thinking about it before though. I just got a separate hard drive. For basic needs, it gets the job done. But if you're drawn in by the features of the tablet mode/touchscreen, then I'd pass. Not worth the price for it to stop working so quickly.
