The editors didn't like
The price
Still very large footprint despite not having performance of competing laptops • Dual-core gets smacked around by quad-core competitors
Subpar sound
Good
But not great
Battery life
Gets hot under CPU-intense usage
Less battery life than the competition
Requires dongle for Ethernet
Fingerprint magnet
Pricey as configured
OLED screen means less battery life than the competition
Expensive
Reflective panel
A bit pricey
Especially once options added
Merely okay speakers
No standard-size SD card slot (MicroSD only)
Hard to access SD/SIM slot
Unsatisfying audio output
Screen glare
Speakers
Tedious styling
Extremely expensive
'Wave' keyboard is a bit of a gimmick
Price
Camera is just okay
Sustained performance drop still applies due to passively-cooled chipset
Low-frequency display PWM will likely bother sensitive users

Take the goodness of the ThinkPad X1 Carbon and distill it into a 2-in-1, and you'll get the 2017 ThinkPad X1 Yoga. Biz buyers who need a convertible laptop can't ignore this one. Read More...

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga is one of the best convertibles on the market and it's also one of the best business laptops. Lenovo has done such a great job of incorporating the identities of both of these brands into a single device. Sporting a durable des...
Lenovo's 2017 ThinkPad X1 Yoga is a solid Windows 2-in-1. Its durable frame can take a beating, and it has every port necessary to get you through your work day, even if one requires an adapter and the other is in an awkward place. The ThinkPad X1 Yoga la...
I actually really love the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga, for what it is. For me personally, if I was going to go out and buy one, I'd certainly want the Core i7 model with the 1440p OLED display, 16GB RAM, and cellular connectivity. In fact, if I had those thi...
It's been a good while since I've done a laptop review from Lenovo and getting back to it with the Yoga X1 2017 was worth it. I like the design and wish other Lenovo units came like this, the screen was perfect and the 360 rotation going from laptop to ta...

Abstract: I recently reviewed the ThinkPad T470, and the kind folks at Lenovo shortly followed up to send me the second generation ThinkPad X1 Yoga for review. Initially announced back at CES 2017, the second generation ThinkPad X1 Yoga brings many improvements fr...
relatively easy maintenance for a tablet/convertible, very good input devices, fast system performance, reasonable operating temperatures, acceptable battery life, greatly improved brightness and contrast
sustained performance drop still applies due to passively-cooled chipset, low-frequency display PWM will likely bother sensitive users, no Thunderbolt port, poor speakers, only 1-year warranty standard
Subpar sound, Good, but not great, battery life, Gets hot under CPU-intense usage
A "Kaby Lake" update to Lenovo's flagship business tablet (using a renamed Core M CPU), the X1 Tablet's strengths lie in MIL-SPEC design and best-in-class detachable keyboard. A bit more battery life would make it a winner. Read More...
