Light chassis. Good battery life. Comfortable keyboard. Lid folds for Tablet, Stand, and Tent modes.
Bottom Line, The Lenovo Yoga 2 11 is an inexpensive evolution of the convertible hybrid laptop. Its $500 purchase price is a sweet spot for consumers, but there are even less expensive choices from other PC makers

Good price, Solid build quality, Reasonable keyboard
Too heavy for tablet use, Short battery life, Holding the tablet by gripping the keyboard is unsettling
The Yoga 2 11 from Lenovo is a convertible notebook that is a good fit for those wanting a good laptop for occasional use as a tablet. It offers six hours of operation on the battery, which is not great for a tablet. The starting price of $599 is what I w...
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...
As we mentioned above the Lenovo Yoga 2 59446316 has the ability to fold 360 degrees giving you great flexibility in how you use this laptop model by support 4 different usage modes. These modes include a regular laptop, tablet, stand and tent. Having a l
While the Lenovo Yoga 2 59446316 is very affordable especially against other convertible models one of the reasons for this is that Lenovo has scaled back the hardware included by going with some lower end equipment. The very average Pentium N3540 process
While the Lenovo Yoga 2 59446316 isn't going to wow you with its superior hardware it does give users the amazing flexibility of a 360 degree design in a small compact and affordable option. If these are some of the most important options for you when cho...

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....

Light chassis, Good battery life, Comfortable keyboard, Lid folds for Tablet, Stand, and Tent modes
Few I/O ports, Micro-HDMI port requires adapter, Motion control is still gimmicky, Small auxiliary keys and touchpad

The hinge mechanism Lenovo uses on its hybrids is one of the best methods we've seen so far for combining laptops and tablets into one device but, as ever, both modes are a compromise. The Yoga 2's laptop position is hampered by a poor keyboard and, in ta...
11inch is Bay Trail only, 13inch could be overshadowed by Pro model
The 11-inch Yoga 2 could be a winner simply because the price is right. It's light, long lasting and feels like a machine that should cost a bit more than it does. That alone could make it a smart choice for students, as it undercuts the MacBook Air by s...
