I have one. Been using it for a couple of months, mainly to edit a large word document (1100 pages). It can be slightly sluggish but it generally keeps up - autosave hogs the computer for about 5-10 seconds at a time. Typing on the keyboard is a bit painful (as an experience, not literally painful). The delete and backspace keys placement/ size means that instead of deleting a line, I end up adding some dashes or equals signs. Even now, I'm making several errors in a sentence, most often hitting b or v instead of the space bar. However it is very light and portable, and I've been using it far more than my surface book (which I sold eventually as it was really really heavy). I haven't used the pen much, it's a pain that there isn't a way to attach it, so I never have the pen with me. However I just found out that the stylus (S Pen) of the Galaxy note 5 works very well with it, so I'm probably going to be using the pen function more now.
choboutube on the windows 10 version the little finger/track pad thing can you press it to make it do an action like on a normal computer like open a software by clicking it
Jerome Gotangco wow thanx for that! if im not bothering you please check how is writing/drawing experience using the included stylus/pen directly on the screen?? thanx.
I have got both the Android and Windows 10 version. I have ended up selling the Android version. I can remote desktop into my work computer better via Windows 10. I can do surprising good amount of work (accounts work) on it, and it is good for visiting clients. I can't touch type so the keyboard is ok for me.
over 100 words per min. My hat of to you sir. You are a speed typist. For artists that likes to keep a scrap book of his/her drawings. Then this is perfect. nice review.
Thank you for your excellent review. I have a Windows Yoga Book since several weeks. The performance is good after having changed the settings to 'Best performance' in the control panel and disabled the automatic start of most programs. There are some good websites which explain on how to improve the overall performance of any Windows machine. The start takes now around 5 seconds. I'm pretty satisfied and acquired it in order to run SAP on a remote basis. It is a complete Windows laptop! Also MS Office is running well on it. It will not replace my Apple MacBook at the office - but it is my 'laptop' when I travel. It is far better than a normal tablet and can do everything what my normal PCs can do - also it can read from a USB key (via an adapter). You need to get used to the small and very sensible touch-pad and to the keyboard. This took me a while but now it works fine. In case that you need a second pen, the Wacom Spark pen is 'identical' and the original pen fillings can be acquired low cost directly from the producer (Starminen.ch). I have a LTE version and it is very convenient to have connection everywhere. The wi-fi and cellular connections work reasonable fast. My dream would be to have it dual boot and preferable as a Windows / Chromebook (including Playstore).
I would buy it because.. 1) The small size and light weight form is perfect to chuck it into my handbag daily. Don't even need a dedicated laptop bag. 2) I could use it comfortably as an e-reader especially for ebooks which I have in my cloud storage. 3) It's perfect size as a comic and manga reader. Awesome. 4) I would use it with cloud tools and apps for office stuff - like documents editing etc 5) I could binge on movies and drama while laying around on the couch or on the bed without tiring of holding it. I don't need to sit at my desktop unit to do that. I am not 100% sure if I would like that halo keyboard tho. Worried it might change my touch typing muscle memory. Hope I don't need to type too much with it. Ha. Anyways, I really enjoy your reviews. Very thorough and thoughtful :)
As a medical translator I take notes in consultation with client and doctor , this little machine saves carrying multiple heavy client history with me as I write the notes throughout the interview (which then are also digital immediately) and can access their history for any clarifications during the consultation from the cloud. It's a gem and I have both android and Windows versions as the android couldn't hand write to text on the go!
I've had mine now for almost two years and still use it all the time. Purchased a small backlit bluetooth keyboard which is good for windows, android, and IOS. I use Nebo and OneNote for notes and they both work very well. I would highly recommend this device for anyone looking for something like this.
It may not be 100% but I have to congratulate Lenovo for having the balls to try something different. Getting so fed up with the lack of any innovation in laptops. Oooh bigger battery, oooh faster processor, oooh smaller bezels is all we get these days. Well done Lenovo!
I would prefer the android version..... Because the specs are good to go with android only! And with the halo keyboard we might get swipe gesture on the android.
Hey! Great review as always! But I wanted to ask: As a 15 year old; music/singing/recording, reading & learning, art/designing/detailing, photo editing, gaming, and RUclips passionate, which would be better for me: Android or Windows? Hope for your reply!
I went with the Windows 10 version. At the time I purchased it the alternate game with Android Marshmallow which had limited support for running two windows side by side. I don't regret the purchase. Build quality is great, screen is great, and the speakers are surprisingly good. As a touch typist the keyboard takes a lot of getting used to.
Although lets me honest it's very doubtful that anyone will be running Adobe After Effects or Sony Vegas on this device, although it might be able to do some light photoshop work.
I have it, and it is great for drawing. Do not expect to do very professional work with it because of the little RAM and weak CPU it has, but it does a great job for sketches, writing, doodles, creative work that you will continue on your main device. I don't see it fit for editing large documents or spreadsheet work, because the screen isn't that big to avoid eye strain. It is best for work on the go, it won't replace your laptop but will save you alot of weight and space if you travel.
I am thinking about buying this at the moment, but I am not really sure if I should buy this or a laptop, because I'll need to do a lot of essays for school on it but I also love to draw...
I have considered it, and at the time when this video was posted, I bought a Lenovo MIIX310 instead. Because the MIIX310 offers detachable physical keyboard and 2 full-size USB-A ports, a bigger battery, a lighter weight when using as a tablet, a cheaper price, and of cause, a worse screen.
Thanks Tom - good video! It looks good, but the non physical keyboard puts me off a bit. I'd probably just end up using it as a tablet and I've already got an iPad for that.
Very good review, thanks. The question, can it replace a laptop, is a bit hollow. Can it extend a laptop? is more to the point and informative. The Windows Yoga Book changes how I can work with all my devices and services. Keyboard good enough? The best is the one you have. Not as good as a tray of Chiclets, better than onscreen, easy to Bluetooth a real keyboard with.
loving the new office setup... Looks alot cleaner... need to clean mine up as well as getting a gaming pc to test out those graphics cards on my channel! loving your work
You could consider buying this if you have a good deal. I got one in my country for just around 275$ so i just take it as a no brainer. Then, for the typing issue, I just bought a bluetooth keyboard. Nobody is going to just take the notebook alone out to the working place, so having a small portable keyboard in your bag isn't that inconvenience. It's just like another book on top of the "yoga book" Long batt life, win 10, cheap, super light n portable, you can draw on it (i would say it is better suit for a student or as a budget option than for a professional use)
Maxificent you get used to the typing on it, just takes a bit of time... i use my Yoga Book as my main laptop, great for artists, i animate on it and draw alot... it works for everything the average person or artist would need.
It depends in your needs. For me I need it to run any Windows program (no compromise) so its an easy choice for me. I;ve had mine nearly 3 months now and I still love it.
Thanks for your very informative review........just an inquiry though, is Microsoft Office included in the Lenovo Yoga Book, especially the Windows version?
just got mine and loving it, not a heavy user just for movies and email and web browsing. Like the size and portability of it. would like a better cpu on the next one but its fine for me.
I have a feeling that this is good idea overall and the device itself is impressive. I tried typing on it and I couldn't feel any feedback. The price isn't bad as well. It's tempting but as so many people said before I'd rather wait for 2nd gen more polished version. I just hope there will be 2nd gen.
Hi! I hope you're well. Would you consider doing a video to compare some good desktop pc's? (XPS 8910 / XPS 27 / Envy 27 etc) I think a lot of people who are graduating this year will be looking to buy one when move out to live on their own.

it's super thin and portable.And mostly due to it's battery life i prefer yogabook.....i have ordered one......hope it will fulfill my need.....
is it possible to hook up a bluray player to it and could it register. I'm wondering if there are methods to play disk with this either with a player or external disk drive
Actually, I bought one. It's a really nice secondary product thanks for its weight and long battery life. If you need work on mobile, it's a good choice.
Apparently the drawing tablet part is kinda crippled in Android since you need to be using an app that actually supports that as an input. In Windows it works as any Wacom/Windows Ink device.
I'm thinking of getting it because I'm actually really slow when I type on an actual keyboard. I'm so used to typing on my iPad, that when I type on an actual keyboard, I forget to actually press hard on the buttons .
Thanks for the review. One question. You didn't mention anything , but it looks like the pen leaves a mark on the digitizer when you write and or sketch on it. Is it just like a smudge it leaves behind or does the digitizer actually light the trail of the pen ? Thank you !!!!
Got one for £350 Just wanted a windows tablet to watch Sky Go while working from hotels. Great battery and good volume... Performance is good for the use I give it, web browsing and youtube etc. Don't use the pen, just use as a tablet.
The touchscreen problem isn’t real if you use phones and tablets a lot say u use an iPad Pro getting this keyboard you can type quickly without many mistakes. I feel ur being close minded on this because you have a traditional laptop you believe it should only get this if you already have a laptop which most people wouldn’t consider practical to get it then (this was typed on a a touchscreen.
I wonder how the Android version keyboard handles multiple language input. On Windows you just add another keyboard layout and switch to it. On Android it's a bit trickier, and this is not an on-screen keyboard where you can change layouts relatively easily.
Last week on Amazon, I purchased a yoga ThinkPad 12.5 inch fully loaded for a great price of $780. It will arrive shortly. I would not purchase The yoga book. Thanks for the video
Hi, great video, I have a question though, on the yoga book windows version can you write on the pad (and have it digitized) while multitasking with other programs? for example, taking notes on the pad while watching youtube? as far as i know the android version has the app "note saver" on it which allows write while multitask therefore I was wondering if you could do the same in windows. Thanks
Thanks for the review, Chap! Has someone tried running a development IDE on it? I need a small and light notebook such as this for when traveling lightly. I already have a 12" thinkpad for when I need more work power and type more. But I fell in love with the form factor in the Yoga Book. I don't mind the digital touch keyboard as long I can edit som code with it. I'm worried about the performance of the Atom chip. 4GB of ram is too little for heavy multitasking but I think CPU is more limiting here. That said, there may be some Windows specific things one can do to speed up a little, like assign more CPU to certain processes and turn off windows features such as cortana, using adblockers, disabling services etc.
Scale up the same design to that of a 13" ultrabook, put in a proper keyboard/touchpad, instead of that other deal, keep it fanless, 16gb ram, 1080p 16:9 screen and change the name of the manufacturer to one that haven't let me down time and time again, and I'm sold. Seriously, I'd amputate my left leg with a rusty hacksaw, if I could get a reasonable package deal like that.
Shame that the magnetic Stylus doesn't work properly at the the screen. I really like the idea of writing on paper and having it shared to my PC, but for that niche market that I'm part of the Bamboo Slate Smart pad is a much better deal.
which one is better for the students ? the yoga book or the hp envy ? I'm a little bit confused since i want to use it to draw digitally and editing but also for making essays and assignments. if any of you knew the loss and benefit, feel free to give me an advice :)
Do you think I can get a high performance/precision hand writing with Yoga Book? I mean for taking large amount of notes or even writing long paragraphs...
I often wondered, If we do get thin bezels tablets how could we hold it with out accidentally pressing buttons? That happens to me all the time with my Windows10 tablet (FYI it does have big bezels as it is).
Well mobiles you can hold with one hand and grip both sides etc. You can´t with most tablets, you could hold like a plate with flat hands under it but that wouldn´t be very comfortable or secure.
I am sad of buying this Yoga Book. Have you tried inserting the nano sim? It's only for the expandable memory card. No space/place for the nano sim which is in contrary to what is being presented in the manual.
I'm a student and am looking for a new laptop to replace my broken one, should I consider the yoga book? I'd probably only need it for notes and the odd essay now and again, but John Lewis at the moment have an idea pad 320 with 8gb of ram for roughly £350 (sterling). Which should I choose?
You drew on the laptop comparison too much; it just doesn't make sense. It is targeted at digital artists, students who want to digitize their work, and tablet-loving professionals who find themselves writing on the screen's virtual keyboard. The tablet is ideal for them, combining the advantages of a tablet (small weight, portable) with the advantages of a "laptop", i.e. an integrated keyboard that does not take up screen space. How many times have you seen journalists typing away on their tablet? This is for them...this way they get a stable surface to type on, more convenient angles, they can hand-write if they wish to (to write faster), while keeping digital copies of everything they do. Now, I would love to have this with a SSD drive and an Apollo-Lake processor and two USB-C ports...this would so increase its practicality, without going overboard on specs, which would not make much sense and would put it up against proper laptop-replacements.
Hi, great video.I'm student , so I take a lot of notes in class, actually I have the HP pavillion x2, but the touch screen is no so good for write, that is why i'm looking for something that suit me better. I wouId like to ask you about the touchpad, is it working as a real one , of it has limited features?
par me the very dumb question, i'm a tech neofite...if adapting reg usb ports to the micro usb (with a hub)...will it support/run an optic drive (cd-r)???
i want to buy this but im a bit afraid, will this yoga book able to run apps like coreldraw, illustrator, photoshop n windows movie maker without a lag?
I bought the android one without knowing there was a windows version. do you think I can somehow factory reset it and try to put in windows instead of android processor?
Hello fellow humans, I have a question. Say you work with documents (PDF) that need to be signed by various parties; if I'm face to face with said individual(s) can they sign the PDF and will it save as normal w/ their signature on it? Has anyone used it for this purpose and if so how has it worked out for you? Thanks
I have one. Been using it for a couple of months, mainly to edit a large word document (1100 pages). It can be slightly sluggish but it generally keeps up - autosave hogs the computer for about 5-10 seconds at a time. Typing on the keyboard is a bit painful (as an experience, not literally painful). The delete and backspace keys placement/ size means that instead of deleting a line, I end up adding some dashes or equals signs. Even now, I'm making several errors in a sentence, most often hitting b or v instead of the space bar.
However it is very light and portable, and I've been using it far more than my surface book (which I sold eventually as it was really really heavy). I haven't used the pen much, it's a pain that there isn't a way to attach it, so I never have the pen with me.

saved by your comment, thanks!
choboutube on the windows 10 version the little finger/track pad thing can you press it to make it do an action like on a normal computer like open a software by clicking it
does it play 4k videos
possible to connect a mouse?
have you also tried external hard drive or DVD drive?
I have the Windows version and I'd say its more like a next-generation Netbook more than anything else. It's super neat to use OneNote on this though.
Jerome Gotangco does it read external hdd through otg??
Yes it can!
Jerome Gotangco wow thanx for that! if im not bothering you please check how is writing/drawing experience using the included stylus/pen directly on the screen?? thanx.
You can draw directly to the screen but its much better to do it with the digitizer
Jerome Gotangco thanks a lot! ! that helps..!!
I have got both the Android and Windows 10 version. I have ended up selling the Android version. I can remote desktop into my work computer better via Windows 10. I can do surprising good amount of work (accounts work) on it, and it is good for visiting clients. I can't touch type so the keyboard is ok for me.
can you open Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop on it?
3 Years later - still waiting for a real (Android) successor. The form factor is so underrated.
Still one of the devices I keep close to me. The Android version is just fantastic, even if the OS is stuck on Nougat.
over 100 words per min. My hat of to you sir. You are a speed typist.
For artists that likes to keep a scrap book of his/her drawings. Then this is perfect.
nice review.
100 is a lot , I can barely reach 85 on nintype even though there is nothing like nintype in this whole world
Thank you for your excellent review. I have a Windows Yoga Book since several weeks. The performance is good after having changed the settings to 'Best performance' in the control panel and disabled the automatic start of most programs. There are some good websites which explain on how to improve the overall performance of any Windows machine. The start takes now around 5 seconds.
I'm pretty satisfied and acquired it in order to run SAP on a remote basis. It is a complete Windows laptop! Also MS Office is running well on it. It will not replace my Apple MacBook at the office - but it is my 'laptop' when I travel. It is far better than a normal tablet and can do everything what my normal PCs can do - also it can read from a USB key (via an adapter).
You need to get used to the small and very sensible touch-pad and to the keyboard. This took me a while but now it works fine.
In case that you need a second pen, the Wacom Spark pen is 'identical' and the original pen fillings can be acquired low cost directly from the producer (Starminen.ch).
I have a LTE version and it is very convenient to have connection everywhere. The wi-fi and cellular connections work reasonable fast.
My dream would be to have it dual boot and preferable as a Windows / Chromebook (including Playstore).
can you work on Adobe Illustrator with the windows version?
I would buy it because..
1) The small size and light weight form is perfect to chuck it into my handbag daily. Don't even need a dedicated laptop bag.
2) I could use it comfortably as an e-reader especially for ebooks which I have in my cloud storage.
3) It's perfect size as a comic and manga reader. Awesome.
4) I would use it with cloud tools and apps for office stuff - like documents editing etc
5) I could binge on movies and drama while laying around on the couch or on the bed without tiring of holding it. I don't need to sit at my desktop unit to do that.
I am not 100% sure if I would like that halo keyboard tho. Worried it might change my touch typing muscle memory. Hope I don't need to type too much with it. Ha.
Anyways, I really enjoy your reviews. Very thorough and thoughtful :)
As a medical translator I take notes in consultation with client and doctor , this little machine saves carrying multiple heavy client history with me as I write the notes throughout the interview (which then are also digital immediately) and can access their history for any clarifications during the consultation from the cloud.

I use Nebo and OneNote for notes and they both work very well. I would highly recommend this device for anyone looking for something like this.
i wish it was dual screen, and the 2nd one is monochrome. so it's good for map and reading and other stuffs
Your wish is now granted! Enter the Yoga Book C930.
Even after 7 years, why does it look like a future concept to me
It may not be 100% but I have to congratulate Lenovo for having the balls to try something different. Getting so fed up with the lack of any innovation in laptops. Oooh bigger battery, oooh faster processor, oooh smaller bezels is all we get these days. Well done Lenovo!
I would prefer the android version..... Because the specs are good to go with android only!
And with the halo keyboard we might get swipe gesture on the android.
would this be a good iPad replacement?
Hey! Great review as always! But I wanted to ask: As a 15 year old; music/singing/recording, reading & learning, art/designing/detailing, photo editing, gaming, and RUclips passionate, which would be better for me: Android or Windows? Hope for your reply!
Definitely windows version, you can use lots of windows programs like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe After Effects, Sony Vegas etc...
I went with the Windows 10 version. At the time I purchased it the alternate game with Android Marshmallow which had limited support for running two windows side by side. I don't regret the purchase. Build quality is great, screen is great, and the speakers are surprisingly good. As a touch typist the keyboard takes a lot of getting used to.
Although lets me honest it's very doubtful that anyone will be running Adobe After Effects or Sony Vegas on this device, although it might be able to do some light photoshop work.
Android , there are many many cool apps on android , I don't know about windows , but I see windows is not that strong as its heavy
Nice review man. Looks like a really nice laptop for the price and great for editing YT on the go. Keep up the good work!
I tried out this In a shop, and the keyboard felt nicer than the current MacBook butterfly keyboard, it was just easier to type on
I have it, and it is great for drawing. Do not expect to do very professional work with it because of the little RAM and weak CPU it has, but it does a great job for sketches, writing, doodles, creative work that you will continue on your main device. I don't see it fit for editing large documents or spreadsheet work, because the screen isn't that big to avoid eye strain. It is best for work on the go, it won't replace your laptop but will save you alot of weight and space if you travel.
I just got one in the windows version so I looked up a video and i saw your channel and I really like it.
Loving the new studio and background! Keep up the good work! Great videos!
Yes I agree the next generation what I'm looking for
My laptop still has a parallel port.
wow lol
TheDutyPaid same
I still prefer a dual screen like the Acer 6120 but smaller (8" or 10").
I am thinking about buying this at the moment, but I am not really sure if I should buy this or a laptop, because I'll need to do a lot of essays for school on it but I also love to draw...
Sam Arts can u draw ?
That is SERIOUSLY AWESOME! Thanks for doing a review on it :) Also keep up the good work, man!
I have considered it, and at the time when this video was posted, I bought a Lenovo MIIX310 instead. Because the MIIX310 offers detachable physical keyboard and 2 full-size USB-A ports, a bigger battery, a lighter weight when using as a tablet, a cheaper price, and of cause, a worse screen.

Long batt life, win 10, cheap, super light n portable, you can draw on it (i would say it is better suit for a student or as a budget option than for a professional use)
If you can't type on a laptop, then it doesn't work as a laptop, that's kinda a deal breaker for most people I would imagine xD
It is marketed as a windows tablet (2-in-1) though. So it's a tablet with a extra keyboard/drawing pad rather than a laptop without physical keys. :)
That's fair enough I guess. The "keyboard" is pretty cool :P
Maxificent you get used to the typing on it, just takes a bit of time... i use my Yoga Book as my main laptop, great for artists, i animate on it and draw alot... it works for everything the average person or artist would need.
peter stringer
Can you do Photoshop editing work on it?
Payhole Everdouche iv not tried, but i don't see why not, though it would prob slow down for loads of layers.
XPS 13 2015 still serves me well... btw, nice review
I love mine. It's definetly a tablet, though, and not a small pc. This will not replace your laptop in any way.
Pretty cool! I think it would be better suited for chrome os especially if Android apps can be used.
It depends in your needs. For me I need it to run any Windows program (no compromise) so its an easy choice for me. I;ve had mine nearly 3 months now and I still love it.
Thanks for your very informative review........just an inquiry though, is Microsoft Office included in the Lenovo Yoga Book, especially the Windows version?

It's tempting but as so many people said before I'd rather wait for 2nd gen more polished version. I just hope there will be 2nd gen.
I would buy this if it had thinner bezels. I look forward to the new Book. If they launch it. Please Lenovo do.
Hi! I hope you're well. Would you consider doing a video to compare some good desktop pc's? (XPS 8910 / XPS 27 / Envy 27 etc) I think a lot of people who are graduating this year will be looking to buy one when move out to live on their own.
it's super thin and portable.And mostly due to it's battery life i prefer yogabook.....i have ordered one......hope it will fulfill my need.....
is it possible to hook up a bluray player to it and could it register. I'm wondering if there are methods to play disk with this either with a player or external disk drive
I'm so behind on the editing of my videos. Music! It makes a difference!
Great video and big like to the new setup!
Actually, I bought one. It's a really nice secondary product thanks for its weight and long battery life. If you need work on mobile, it's a good choice.

Yeah it's cool. I would recommend if you are a light user looking for some futuristic looking gadget.
Can we use word excel ppt
what do u think, can it be used for adobe reader easily or it may stuck and lag; for reading pdf books?
thanks
Thanks for the review. One question. You didn't mention anything , but it looks like the pen leaves a mark on the digitizer when you write and or sketch on it. Is it just like a smudge it leaves behind or does the digitizer actually light the trail of the pen ? Thank you !!!!
Got one for £350
Just wanted a windows tablet to watch Sky Go while working from hotels.
Great battery and good volume...
Performance is good for the use I give it, web browsing and youtube etc.
Don't use the pen, just use as a tablet.
The touchscreen problem isn’t real if you use phones and tablets a lot say u use an iPad Pro getting this keyboard you can type quickly without many mistakes. I feel ur being close minded on this because you have a traditional laptop you believe it should only get this if you already have a laptop which most people wouldn’t consider practical to get it then (this was typed on a a touchscreen.
Came here to check out any Lenovo Yoga Book upgrades for 2017, but I can't focus on what ur saying, ur so gorgeous! U distract me😃
im so hot for him
Really good job man ! your youtube channel should go off !
I can't touch type but I manage to get 122 WPM. I think it's just you. Not the yoga
Jadi it's just that it's 100% different to the keyboard
Essays don't need speed typing, you spend much more time on generation of ideas and sentences than actually typing.
I wonder how the Android version keyboard handles multiple language input. On Windows you just add another keyboard layout and switch to it. On Android it's a bit trickier, and this is not an on-screen keyboard where you can change layouts relatively easily.
If I bought the tablet in the version of an anroid, is there a way to switch to a version of Windows 10? Please someone answer me!
Last week on Amazon, I purchased a yoga ThinkPad 12.5 inch fully loaded for a great price of $780. It will arrive shortly. I would not purchase The yoga book.
Thanks for the video
I’ll get it b if the design and buy Bluetooth keyboard for when I’m working on my manuscripts. It’s just beautiful!
can it run photoshop cc
Kinda late but can you use the pen directly on the screen instead of using the pad? If yes, does it still have pressure levels on the screen? Thanks.
Hi, great video, I have a question though, on the yoga book windows version can you write on the pad (and have it digitized) while multitasking with other programs? for example, taking notes on the pad while watching youtube? as far as i know the android version has the app "note saver" on it which allows write while multitask therefore I was wondering if you could do the same in windows.

I already have a 12" thinkpad for when I need more work power and type more. But I fell in love with the form factor in the Yoga Book. I don't mind the digital touch keyboard as long I can edit som code with it. I'm worried about the performance of the Atom chip. 4GB of ram is too little for heavy multitasking but I think CPU is more limiting here. That said, there may be some Windows specific things one can do to speed up a little, like assign more CPU to certain processes and turn off windows features such as cortana, using adblockers, disabling services etc.
Scale up the same design to that of a 13" ultrabook, put in a proper keyboard/touchpad, instead of that other deal, keep it fanless, 16gb ram, 1080p 16:9 screen and change the name of the manufacturer to one that haven't let me down time and time again, and I'm sold. Seriously, I'd amputate my left leg with a rusty hacksaw, if I could get a reasonable package deal like that.
Shame that the magnetic Stylus doesn't work properly at the the screen.
I really like the idea of writing on paper and having it shared to my PC, but for that niche market that I'm part of the Bamboo Slate Smart pad is a much better deal.
which one is better for the students ? the yoga book or the hp envy ? I'm a little bit confused since i want to use it to draw digitally and editing but also for making essays and assignments. if any of you knew the loss and benefit, feel free to give me an advice :)
Do you think I can get a high performance/precision hand writing with Yoga Book? I mean for taking large amount of notes or even writing long paragraphs...
I often wondered, If we do get thin bezels tablets how could we hold it with out accidentally pressing buttons?
That happens to me all the time with my Windows10 tablet (FYI it does have big bezels as it is).
Well mobiles you can hold with one hand and grip both sides etc. You can´t with most tablets, you could hold like a plate with flat hands under it but that wouldn´t be very comfortable or secure.
great review!
It is a problem, keyboard cracked, and Lenovo refused to give me solution. support in there product.
I am sad of buying this Yoga Book. Have you tried inserting the nano sim? It's only for the expandable memory card. No space/place for the nano sim which is in contrary to what is being presented in the manual.
I'm a student and am looking for a new laptop to replace my broken one, should I consider the yoga book? I'd probably only need it for notes and the odd essay now and again, but John Lewis at the moment have an idea pad 320 with 8gb of ram for roughly £350 (sterling). Which should I choose?
You drew on the laptop comparison too much; it just doesn't make sense. It is targeted at digital artists, students who want to digitize their work, and tablet-loving professionals who find themselves writing on the screen's virtual keyboard. The tablet is ideal for them, combining the advantages of a tablet (small weight, portable) with the advantages of a "laptop", i.e. an integrated keyboard that does not take up screen space.
How many times have you seen journalists typing away on their tablet? This is for them...this way they get a stable surface to type on, more convenient angles, they can hand-write if they wish to (to write faster), while keeping digital copies of everything they do.
Now, I would love to have this with a SSD drive and an Apollo-Lake processor and two USB-C ports...this would so increase its practicality, without going overboard on specs, which would not make much sense and would put it up against proper laptop-replacements.
And can I use pen just on screen itself? It's much better for me to paint on screen, to see lines under pen
Hi, great video.I'm student , so I take a lot of notes in class, actually I have the HP pavillion x2, but the touch screen is no so good for write, that is why i'm looking for something that suit me better. I wouId like to ask you about the touchpad, is it working as a real one , of it has limited features?
par me the very dumb question, i'm a tech neofite...if adapting reg usb ports to the micro usb (with a hub)...will it support/run an optic drive (cd-r)???

I'm interested but I have yet to find out if video editing is possible on this. Nothing super high end, just the Flash based RUclips video editor.
i want to buy this but im a bit afraid, will this yoga book able to run apps like coreldraw, illustrator, photoshop n windows movie maker without a lag?
I bought the android one without knowing there was a windows version. do you think I can somehow factory reset it and try to put in windows instead of android processor?

Hello fellow humans, I have a question. Say you work with documents (PDF) that need to be signed by various parties; if I'm face to face with said individual(s) can they sign the PDF and will it save as normal w/ their signature on it? Has anyone used it for this purpose and if so how has it worked out for you? Thanks

How much memory does windows consume? Can you run a Word in it, for example?
question: can it handle light games like csgo or minecraft etc.?
Can you use Chrome Extensions on the Windows 10 version? What about the Android Version?
what if we add extra mouse and keyboard thn will it increase typing speed?
