  • Great price, Slick and attractive design, Bright screen, Good speakers
  • Average battery life, Inconsistent build quality, Slow processor, Poor keyboard, No SSD
  • We love the 360-degree design and the price of the Yoga 2 11, but we're less keen on the sluggish performance, bulkyness and iffy keyboard. It's not a bad hybrid, but it's not our first choice.Next, read more laptop reviews or pick from the best Windows 8...

  • Good battery life (7 hours), Quality build, Versatile processor, Great display
  • Body heats up ever so slightly, Subtly audible fan, Not for gamers
  • The IdeaPad Yoga 2 was a nice surprise for us. Its components make it a versatile, fun and easy-to-use computer that can take on many forms (Tent, Stand, Tablet, Laptop) by simply pivoting the screen. Plus, it has superb picture quality, something that's ...

  • In some respects the Yoga 2 is a real bargain, as it provides good screen quality, battery life and lightweight design at a very competitive price. Performance is below-par, although it will still handle routine web browsing, streaming video and wordproce...

  • Abstract:  We loved the Lenovo Yoga 11s in our review, but it’s no longer the king of the castle anymore, thanks to the updated Yoga 2 Pro, which comes with our biggest ask — a full HD display.It’s not just full HD though, with the resolution coming in at 3200×1800,...

  • The lower-power CPU doesn't offer fully mainstream performance, and the keyboard flexes under even light typing
  • Lenovo's Yoga 2 11 combines the popular Yoga hybrid design with an affordable 11-inch ultraportable for a system that's budget-feeling but sturdy, and one of the best of a new breed of low-cost hybrids....

  • Thin and light for a laptop, Attractively priced, Useful tent and stand modes
  • Short battery life for a tablet, Awkwardly thick and heavy in tablet mode, Very flexy keyboard
  • Lenovo made a lot of compromises to hit this price poing, and did little to advance the hybrid concept. Still, the Yoga 2 11 has a good price-to-performance ratio....
