Customer Ratings & Reviews

Through no fault of my own, the screen on my Lenova Yoga 900 developed a crack (within one week of purchase) that originated on the left bottom of laptop screen and extends to to top of screen. Therefore the left 1/3 of my laptop screen does not have touch screen capability. Lenova warranty does not cover this type of damage to fix. I am dissapointed with Lenova manufacturing quality for such an high price laptop. This is an ongoing problem; I have seen many users review with cracked screen issue on Lenova products, and for whatever reason Lenova has not done anything to resolve this cracked screen issues with their laptops.

I hardly ever deviate from Dell or Apple, but when I saw this computer for the first time, I was entranced. We had some Lenovo Thinkpads at work, and while they were not perfect, they worked better than the Asus ones we had. After reading many mixed reviews on the Yoga line in general, I decided to buy it for $699 at Best Buy, and I'm aware it will be a Black Friday deal in-store. When I first set it up, it was running good and had a good feel to it. After a couple of hours, the fan would start to go crazy for no reason (I wasn't running anything) and the battery would drain too quickly (probably because of the same reason). This would be understandable if something major was updating or I was using it heavily, but this was not the case. It started to overheat and that didn't stop. The fan noise is just bad, and while I like the look of the computer itself, as I started to think more about it, I didn't like the leather-like cover around the keyboard; it gives it a good feel, but I see it wearing out. I read from some people that it would scratch from the bottom (it's all metallic) and sometimes would not stand properly. It had great specs but all the let-downs made me feel like I can't trust this computer, so I went to return it and bought a 13-inch Dell Inspiron that has a great feel to it minus all the negative things I just mentioned about the Yoga. Bottom line: I would not pay full price for it, nor would I recommend it, but I do think it's worth the $699. I got the Inspiron for $650 and while it lacks in many ways in comparison to the Yoga, it is much more reliable, quiet, and sturdy.
