Keyboard and Touchpad
Performance
Non-standard keyboard that’s hard to use
Lower video resolution than most
Too bulky for a standalone tablet replacement. Keyboard pressed against table when in tablet mode it's not backlit
Not as thin or light as some of its peers
Only two USB ports
And one of them is USB 2.0
At best
The size
Weight
And exposed keyboard make it a sub-par tablet
Screen isn't full HD
Few ports
Some users report WiFi problems
Gesture-control woes
Skimpy selection of ports
Keys lie on bottom in tablet mode
Lots of bundled software saps storage space
Very heavy for its size
Screen is small for its size
Power button hard to locate
Heavy and a bit awkward as a tablet
Tablet mode leaves the keyboard exposed
And the Yoga 13 costs more than standard ultrabooks with similar components
Lackluster graphics performance
Premium price compared to similarly equipped ultrabooks
Odd design leaves keyboard exposed when not in laptop mode
No backlit keyboard. Single band WiFi
Odd design leaves key
Too large and heavy for comfort as a tablet
A little heavy
"Exposed" keyboard in tablet and stand modes
Potentially frustrating power button location
Limited to no more than 8GB of RAM
… but it's sold separately for . Fan tends to run constantly. SSD bizarrely partitioned into 7 chunks
Leaving just 44GB of usable space on C drive. New rectangular power port easily mistaken for USB. Hinge needs tightening
Qualité de finition, Configuration puissante et homogène, Bonne autonomie
Ventilateur toujours audible, Équipement en deçà (HP, Webcam), Seulement deux ports USB, Clavier non rétro-éclairé
Soufflant le chaud et le froid à longueur de test, le Yoga 13 de Lenovo reste au final une machine que l’on apprécie beaucoup, mais qui souffre de trop de petites fautes de parcours pour que l’on puisse vraiment lui pardonner. Il s’agit clairement de l’un...
Concepteur intéressant, Niveau de performances, Ergonomie impeccable, Finition et qualité de construction
Trop lourd, Un peu bruyant, Pas de retroéclairage, Enceintes / webcam très moyennes
Ce Yoga 13 nous a conquis. Il n'est certes pas parfait, car il reste un peu lourd, il lui manque le rétroéclairage au niveau du clavier et certains pesteront contre l'écran brillant. Nous aurions également aimé que Lenovo profite de l'épaisseur constante...

Wer mit die vielen verschiedenen Einsatzzwecke, die ich im Video beschrieben habe, benötigt wird mit dem Ultrabook sicherlich zurechtkommen. Aber: Man sollte sich auch darauf einlassen, man entdeckt nämlich meist erst bei der Nutzung welchen Modus man be...
