The editors liked
Good build quality
Excellent screen
Useful as both a laptop and as a tablet
Unique flexible design
Topnotch QHD IPS display
Backlit keyboard
Aesthetically appealing
The Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 2 is an excellent ultrabook
Even without digging into its hybrid capabilities. This new model adds a backlit keyboard and an impressive 3
200x1
800-pixel-resolution display
While keeping the price under $1
000
Great form-factor
Fantastic high resolution screen
Rubberised exterior makes the Yoga really easy to grip
Accelerometer-enabled modes emphasising more of what a tablet can do
Decent battery life
SD card slot
The editors didn't like
Single-band Wi-Fi
Touchpad drivers not comprehensive
SD cards stick halfway out of the slot
No 802.11ac wireless adapter
Keyboard complicates tablet mode
Disappointing battery life
In battery life it lags behind a couple of more expensive higher-res laptops
Some of the hybrid modes are of dubious use
And Lenovo still doesn't know what to do with the keyboard in tablet mode
Keyboard can be a little cramped on the right side
Great form-factor; Fantastic high resolution screen; Rubberised exterior makes the Yoga really easy to grip; Accelerometer-enabled modes emphasising more of what a tablet can do; Decent battery life; SD card slot;
Keyboard can be a little cramped on the right side; Screen moves a fair bit if you touch it; Mediocre touchpad; Camera is only usable for web conferencing, and really, it could be better;
Lenovo has some interesting ideas, and we've certainly seen its Yoga concept before in the form of the Ashton Kutcher released tablet, but it's here in the Pro 2 Windows machine that the idea feels cemented and pulled off, executed better with an emphasis...

I've been using the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro for months now, replacing my MBA as my travel device. But what I didn't see coming was it becoming my daily driver. I use the Yoga 2 Pro as my everything machine, from writing news every day for TweakTown to writing ...
Abstract: We're fans of the design and engineering being done at Lenovo – the X1 Carbon is our “ BEST Ultrabook ” for 2014, and it's lucky – very lucky, because when the Yoga 2 Pro landed in the EFTM studio the X1 started gathering dust.In startling Orange, the Yog...
Good build quality, Excellent screen, Useful as both a laptop and as a tablet
Single-band Wi-Fi, Touchpad drivers not comprehensive, SD cards stick halfway out of the slot
There are only a couple of things we don't like about the Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 2 Pro (mainly its Wi-Fi module and the touchpad driver), but overall it's a fantastic product that's fun to use. We had no problems using as a laptop, a tablet, and as a display...
No 802.11ac wireless adapter, Keyboard complicates tablet mode, Disappointing battery life
This is a great laptop. If you were to take the Yoga 2 Pro back in time 3 years and show it to anyone—including a TechRadar editor—they would have been ecstatic. This kind of performance and a 3200 x 1800 screen with over three hours of battery life was ...

The Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 2 is an excellent ultrabook, even without digging into its hybrid capabilities. This new model adds a backlit keyboard and an impressive 3,200x1,800-pixel-resolution display, while keeping the price under $1,000
In battery life it lags behind a couple of more expensive higher-res laptops, some of the hybrid modes are of dubious use, and Lenovo still doesn't know what to do with the keyboard in tablet mode
A major update to our favorite Windows 8 hybrid, the IdeaPad Yoga 2 Pro is still a better laptop than tablet, but the new version adds a future-proof better-than-HD display at a great price....
If you're looking for a tablet, usually the question is “Which Samsung or Apple tablet should I get?” but I'd say to toss Lenovo into the hat there. The 13.3-inch Yoga 2 Pro is just $499. That's the price of the entry model iPad Air 2 from Apple which...
Incredibly-low price for the high-end features and sleek design, great build quality,
Ultrahigh resolution is somewhat of a gimmick, causing compatibility problems with many applications
So, what's our overall take on the Yoga 2 Pro? Well, it's a true bargain at its price point, allowing for a truckload of usage scenarios without compromising at all in the standard laptop department. It's all about function over form, save for its inflate...

Full-screen multimedia looks stunning on the 13.3-inch, 1800p touchscreen, CPU is up to the task of standard Windows 8 multitasking, Yoga-inspired hinge stands up to repeated use for incredibly comfortable viewing
Windows 8's ecosystem hasn't caught up to this screen's resolution, making this laptop falter in desktop mode, Anti-glare coating on monitor leaves a little to be desired

Thus far, the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro is one of those devices that works well, and is so close to being perfect. If companies like Adobe start supporting high resolution touch screens that will go a long way to help. Battery life thus far has been between 6-7 h...
