Lenovo's Yoga 720 is an above average 2-in-1 at a below average price

2017-07-28
the 13-inch Lenovo yoga 720 is sort of a bargain in the world of tuned ones it starts at around $800 so it's not exactly cheap but lenovo gave it some premium touches like a slim metal chassis that weighs 2.9 pounds sturdy hinges that allow you to rotate the screen and hold it in multiple positions and support for one of its active pens the full HD touchscreen might not win on color or brightness but for mainstream use it's just fine and the skinny screen bezels and edge to edge glass keep with the high-end feel and lenovo wisely leaves the webcam at the top of the screen the keyboard doesn't have any odd key sizes like earlier yogas and they're clearly labeled and brightly backlit it has a windows precision touchpad that works really well without any cursor jumpiness and you'd get a fingerprint reader off to the side for instant logins with Windows hello mainstream components inside give you enough performance for day-to-day tasks with a battery life of a little under 9 hours in our tests you can expect less than that though with demanding use as well as some fan noise also when it comes to connections you'll be relying on adapters for things like an SD card reader Ethernet or video output but you do get two USB C ports and one with Thunderbolt 3 support that's used for charging / although this is a pretty nice little two-in-one for students or the home office where some added flexibility comes in handy and a nice design is appreciated
