It would be good for programming if you could have your code at the bottom and the website etc at the top or a tutorial video and the code on one screen
Make it chunkier so it gets longer battery and give us a dedicated gpu. Orthogonal USB ports and reduce that wobble with better magnets or groves/lock mechanism.
Lenovo's wave of mega silent firings in early 2023 were absolutely despicable. They laid off thousands of really great people after posting record profits and bragging about moving up the Forbes list each quarter in their "All Hands" NA org sales meetings to those people that moved the needle for them. They ruined thousands of people's lives who relocated and rented or purchased new homes just to join the US sales organization during the digital boom of the pandemic and increase in business for them, forcing them to lose their homes and become homeless. Their warranty process is atrocious and considered terrible by anyone who has had to deal with service claims on top of this.
That stand is definitely super clever, I love wild designs like this and I wish we could see more companies try out wild ideas to see what sticks and what innovates.

Apple, until recently. I mean they introduced the mouse and the world laughed. they introduced USB and the world laughed. they release an all in one computer and the world laughed
I'm super hyped for this and hope they carry this concept and release more polished versions in the future. This device has a lot of very handy use cases.
Hi Karl, you were the first to really motivate me in ordering this device. Thanks for that. Wanted to let you know that by luck I ordered the “perfect” mouse for this: “Microsoft Surface Mobile Wireless Mouse, Ice Blue”. Light-weight, curved, slightly magnetic, and very close to matching in color. Super happy with both! [not everyone receives a mouse with their Lenovo Yoga Book]
Awesome to finally have a production model of this device for review. I have been salivating at the thought of owning one of these devices since i saw it at CES. Cant wait for them to go on sale next month.
Seems to be a great concept. I haven’t noticed any discussion on this, but one thing to keep in mind will be repair costs. From the video I couldn’t see how the lcd panels are attached to the casing. If you break one screen, depending on the placement of the motherboard, you may have to remove both screens to have it repaired. This will increase the cost of repairs. With more reviews of this product we will be able to tell how repairs may have to occur, and what additional costs may accrue in the future.
This is a great implementation of the Microsoft duo. Honestly, this would be great for doing exam past papers compared to having to use both an iPad and a Mac
Interesting, but very expensive for its hardware. I love the portable dual monitor concept. My current solution is MacBook Pro 14” + iPad Pro 12.9. Similar form factor when carrying both, but the MacBook is much more powerful and I can use the iPad on its own as well. A bit more expensive overall, though not so much (in total I think it costed me around 2400-2500$ compared to the 2100$ of the Lenovo) but it think it is worth it. I still like this Lenovo a lot though!
I use a similar setup, mainly because I don't want to use Windows. But that solution is much bulkier and heavier than this, the 14in alone is 3.5lb. The iPad is 1.5lb, plus 0.9lb for the lightest folio case. Combined it's literally double the weight of this laptop.
@@simioni yeah I get you point, but also it is less components to carry around. Just the Mac and iPad, while with this you have the computer the folio case (that is not permanently attached like on the iPad) and the keyboard. So volume-wise I don't think there is that much of a difference. One of my main issues is also not wanting to use windows, but also I like that through my setup I have the ability to use the devices on their own.
This is exactly my point, and using my mac and ipad in a similar fashion, but still this looks cool to have and can play a whole gimmick around people with screens on top of one another, productivity wise I guess mac will still be a winner.

I love the concept of dual screens, I can't live without my Asus ZenBook Duo and this looks like a step up. Everything seems solid and well thought out, the only bad thing would be the internal hardware. You can't design that concept and ask for that amount of money without thinking about designers, programmers and content creators, who are the ones who would get the most out of it and for whom it clearly does not offer enough power. I'm still looking forward to future versions to see how it continues to evolve.
Very nice. The dual portrait orientation is especially interesting for writing. Speaking as an Apple guy, it's nice to see manufacturers taking some chances.
I have been a Mac guy but after my last purchase of the Mac book Pro 13" M1 at over a thousand pounds, I then realised that this "laptop for creators" can only handle one external monitor!!!! What a piece of shit from Apple!!!
@@bluefish1875Cuz they want you to pay for the 14. Apple makes great products but I refuse to support them due to their business practices, they are THE most predatory technology company because they know they can get away with it like they have been for years now. They pull you in with good products and then bleed you out by marking up the price on everything involved and then making everything proprietary so the suckers that bought in would have to literally buy their way out 😂
I have been always looking the second portable monitor for my laptop. But this one is very functional and really fill the gap. Next laptop in mind now.
This is the only laptop worth buying Tired of laptops wasting space on a keyboard I don't like that is also too close to the screen to be comfortable and a trackpad when I'm comfortable using a mouse, glad someone realized they could turn that space into screen!
I would’ve liked to have seen you play around with all the different device arrangements instead of just normal laptop mode and super tall laptop mode.
Marketed at people with lots of money like executives, managers & higher end users in business, not really for students or general every day joe person.
Lenovo is definitely the most innovated computer company ATM. If only they can fix their software add on. My old legion laptop had soo much bloat installed onto it
Starting my second year of college and decided to get a proper laptop. Decided to go with the 16' Yoga 7i but man this is such a cool concept and is my fream laptop atm.
The idea of having conveniently portable dual screens is really exciting but damn man that price point is understandably high. I feel about this laptop I feel about the slew of portable gaming steam deck like devices. On an unlimited budget id buy immediately but in the real world it’s tough to shell out that cash
As an accountant I need multiple monitors to work from so this would be great. Doubt my boss would buy this for me though and it’s too high priced to be my home/private computer.
This setup is my endgame if it is expanded in the future, dual 14.5-16 inch with 120hz oled displays and some sort of DGPU, maybe Strix Halo late next year, maybe a 45w lovelace chip, anything really.
Been waiting for the new x1 fold but I think this the better way to go; 2 discrete screens work better and should be more durable. Pity there is no dockable stylus like the old X1 yoga; I must be one of the few people who actually use the pen constantly to edit and mark up pdf's so an on-board solution would have been great. I think they could have stuck a silo in the sound bar, that would have been sweet. Still going to buy it though.
Just received mine and loving it thus far. As it will continue to evolve, I am just noticing that the keyboard isn't backlit. This would be a nice addition.
Fantastic Laptop but what's wrong? Requires two kickStands on both back sides of the screen; The Keyboard should be connected using magnets when the Laptop is closed to facilitate transport. There should be 14" and 15" alternative. The price is primitive. The design of the pen and the current and the support are prosthetics to the system. Great Video. Thanks.
i just love tech like this! Just so damn cool, no it`s probably not the most practical thing in the world, but i love company that push limits and make wierd cool tech
I believe that this laptop form factor is meant to be used with an external keyboard. Using an external keyboard on a normal laptop takes up more table space and it also puts the screen further away from you unless you put your keyboard on top of the laptop chassis which is not ideal and invites unwanted problems.
I had high expectation designs from Lenovo since the Lenovo Yoga Tab 13 - The Cinematic Tablet for Home Entertainment. That was the only piece of electronic I was willing to pay full price. I expected bugs are resolved. The coolest feature was the projector. Unfortunately, it has to be use in complete darkness. Yoga Tab 13 was ahead of it's time, and may have been too advance for most users back then,
innovation??? :))) sorry that made me laugh … nothing truly innovative about it other than using existing technology and putting it in a different form - that’s not what technical innovation is …
I was waiting for you to feature if those 2 screens can mirror each other when folding or flip on opposite side. I'm an insurance advisor and most of my proposal or products are being presented with my Ipad.

I was waiting for such a thing since Lenovo's iBook c930 (amazing version with two screens, passive cooling, ability to wake up just as an Android Tablet does and weigh no more than 650g) disappeared from sale. I was fascinated by it, other people were constantly asking me about it and always find it very attractive too. The new features even more impressive but I wish the new i9 would be in 10 or 11" size, because 13-14 is not a thing one would gladly take along everywhere
Surprised Apple haven't done something like this....as I think this is probably the "better" of any iterations I've seen where 2x 13inch screens is both very productive in all senses of content/work creation/completion.
Apple is about elegance, not this cheap taste. If you need two screens you buy two screens. Remember phones with dual screens, what a waste, but iPhones is still the leader
Lenovo has not been on top of the X1 Fold gen 2, suppose to be out for sale in Nov 2022. What are the chances this actually comes out for us in June 2023 like they say?
This might be the best dual screen monitor laptop. Love how Lenovo includes all the accessories in the box. Looking at you Microsoft 😂
