The IdeaPad Yoga 13 Ultrabook by Lenovo



One of the top most name Lenovo produced the IdeaPad Yoga 13 is imaginably the simplest laptop-tablet hybrid one have everlastingly witness. It channels the juggle sliding mechanisms in addition double screens initiate in other adaptable Ultrabooks plus as a surrogate offers a super-flexible revolve that let you fold the display back 360 degrees. It’s implausibly strapping, consequently you’ll entail both hands to shift it, on top of when closed it stands at a height of purely 17mm. together with it appears like a pretty mainstream Ultrabook too, indeed it’s light, too, making it a little easier to hold than other tablet hybrids, however we at a halt ended up resting it on our lap or up next to our work surface if we were utilizing it for any wide-ranging era of time. The fan between the display’s hinges became warm on juncture; nevertheless we simply noticed this when holding it vertically.

Moreover its bright 13in IPS touchscreen has tremendous viewing angles; as well its glossy show didn’t cause numerous harms with reflections also. It’s not fairly full HD, although its 1,600x900 resolution seems dramatic in spite of, with rich plus vibrant colors also outstanding contrast levels. Its display rotation is as well spot-on, something that can’t be reflection for the company’s other convertible Ultrabook, the Lenovo Thinkpad Twist, on top of there’s a dedicated button to view the show orientation on the side of the chassis as well and even as the screen’s copious folded back, the keyboard turns out to be the underside of the tablet. The Yoga 13 unwillingly disables the keyboard when it’s in tablet mode so that it has no outcome; in spite of this it isn’t explicitly satisfied having a keyboard on the stern of your tablet.

Seeing as with the Lenovo Thinkpad Twist, the Yoga 13 can be utilized in Tent mode too. We had to employ it at a wide angle to type on the exhibit contentedly; apart from even vibrant screen-jabs didn’t make the Yoga 13 slip or fall and throughout in Laptop mode, the keyboard felt somewhat flimsy, on top of the keyboard tray often rebound accompanied by the keys at the same time as we typed. This didn’t actually detract from our overall typing experience, since the keys themselves were well-spaced additionally endow with adequate tactile feedback, on the other hand it was alarming to observe so much flex on the keyboard of a laptop at this cost. Even if consider using a Bluetooth mouse as the Yoga 13 solely has two USB ports.

This Yoga 13 has modest in the way of connectivity and one of the USB ports is a swift USB3 port; yet the other connections encompass barely an SDHC card slot, a HDMI output added to a combined microphone plus headphone jack, While it comes to raw processing power, the Yoga 13 is identical to other mid- to high-end Ultrabooks. The review sample came with a 1.7GHz Intel Core i5-3317U processor that can Turbo Boost to a clock speed of 2.6GHz while it’s contained by its thermal restrictions, on top of 8GB of RAM. It scored 40 overall in multimedia benchmarks, even if it didn’t deal with predominantly well in multi-tasking test. At the same time, if you’re not planning on utilizing any heavy-duty applications that demands multi-threading, the Yoga 13 will be ample rapid enough for loads of day to day errands

Well, the most astonishing part of the Yoga 13 is its long battery life. We get along 7 hours and 32 minutes in our light use tests, so it’ll indisputable last you a working day if you’re on the be in motion. There isn’t any other convertible Ultrabook we’ve tested lasts anywhere near as elongated away from the mains, furthermore its closest competitor is the Dell XPS 12 at 5 hours and 43 minutes. This Yoga 13 isn’t so superior for playing games. Its graphics are supplied by its CPU’s en suite Intel HD Graphics 4000 chipset, in addition it futile to fabricate 15fps in our Dirt Showdown tests on High Quality settings at 720p. You’ll have to lesser quality settings thoroughly if you plan on playing any modern 3D games, conversely less-demanding titles on the Win 8 Store all worked without blemish.

Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 isn’t idyllic, yet we are fond of its straightforward design, albeit we’re not so fervent on having its keyboard underneath our fingers constantly plus its better-quality battery life as well makes it stand out from other hybrids, along with while it’s still quite sumptuous for what’s if not a suitable mid-range laptop, it’s incontestable one of Lenovo’s paramount products to date.
