Posted .The Lenovo Yoga 730-15 4K model has a powerful Quad-Core/Eight-Thread Intel Core i7-8550U processor, supported by 16GB of DDR4-2400MHz RAM, a 512GB solid state hard drive and a discrete Nvidia GTX 1050 GPU for graphics processing - This is a blazing fast configuration. Be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programing errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.

Posted .There is a new RealTek WiFi Card Driver update version currently available. This will correct the WiFi connectivity issue that is currently being found within Lenovo models with the RealTek 8822BE WiFi Card.
Install the new driver version on the computer with the WiFi connectivity issue, RealTek Wireless Driver for Windows 10 (64-bit) Lenovo –
https://download.lenovo.com/pccbbs/mobiles/r0prw12w.exe
If the WiFi signal continues to drop after restarting the computer, manually change the Bandwidth setting under the "Advanced Driver Properties" within the Device Manager, from
80Mhz_40Mhz_20Mhz to 40Mhz_20Mhz. For 2018, Lenovo retained its place for a second year as the best laptop vendor:

Love Hurts
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Light dimmed the second day, no setting change could return the brightness. Loses charge unbelievably fast (40% in 1.5 hours). I wanted to love it. Specs aren't everything. Love hurts.

Posted .The issue you mention with the screen brightness dimming automatically could be caused by several settings. First check that you have auto-brightness turned off. Here is a link to instructions for turning off auto-brightness within Windows 10:  https://www.itsupportguides.com/knowledge-base/windows-10/windows-10-how-to-disable-automatic-brightness-adjustments/. Second, if the screen dimmed while you are operating the computer on battery, check your power management settings to be sure the computer is not set to auto-dim the screen when the battery capacity is low. Here is a link to adjusting your Power Management Settings, including what your computer does when on battery to save battery life, like dimming the screen brightness:  https://www.auslogics.com/en/articles/make-sense-of-advanced-power-settings/.

Not good
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An original and four replacements all in 8 months. Cracked screen, critical software failures, failed wifi cards, various other issues and almost exploded at school. The laptop was turned off completely and yet the battery seriously overheated in my daughter's backpack, expanding the bottom half of the laptop. This also happened to a friend with the same Lenovo product. I do not recommend this.

Do not buy Lenovo
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thanks to the wonderful associates (Manager Jason and associate Melissa) who helped me return this piece of poorly engineered garbage! I implore everyone to Google "Lenovo screen" and you'll see multiple problems, my screen cracked in under a month by the hinge. You will find Lenovo refuses to acknowledge this and blames it on user error! Please do your research and do not buy this laptop or any other Lenovo products.

Disappointing
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Within the first 30 days I started to have Display issue where it looked like if the screen was duplicating creating a ghost image or having a pixelated bad image. When I took it back the tech mentioned that this was a known issue with this device. I could have gotten it replaced but had a 50/50 chance of having the same problem again. Left it there and bought a Dell later...….
