Specifications and other information can always be found in the Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 specifications page. Now a week later have things changed or am I am still in the honeymoon period? Read on to find out more. Those of you who have read my first impressions will know that I was pretty chuffed with the device from the get go.
I hate that word but it does cover that attribute quite well. I wanted something with great battery life, lightweight, moderate computing power and good “lapability”. Logitech gamepad controller worked perfectly.Īll in all, i've been very happy with this device at this price ($319).Going into this review I had a very clear idea of what it was that I wanted out of the Yoga. For connecting additional devices, my Samsung OTG micro usb to usb cable works just fine. While I did not plan to do much, if any, gaming on this device, it is fun to explore its limits. All of these perform very well on the Atom processor. i'd grab my laptop.Īs for performance, I've only used it for MS Office type stuff, internet, Hearthstone, and the (free and amazing) racing game Asphalt 8 Airborne. I feel that this isn't really an intended scenario, if i wanted to carry around an open and attached device. This would not work at all, and you'd end up dropping whichever one you didnt have your hand on, however. I can understand the reviewers comment about picking both up at same time in "laptop" mode. The tablet only has one included charger, with a very short cable (like 2 1/2 ft cable). Another design point i'll mention is that the keyboard and tablet both charge by micro usb that are located on opposite sides of each other, which can make charging both cluttered. The on/off switch I don't care for much, it requires a higher amount of effort to switch positions and isn't the easiest thing to do when nails are trimmed. A few points on the keyboard design I would mention, it does have a nice metal trim which classes it up a bit. The grip is also nice when carrying it around, as I'm not afraid of it slipping (only care tablet, not both at same time, I use case for that) The keyboard is easy enough to type on for the minimal amount i've used it for that. And many other students have wondered just which tablet it was b/c of its unusual stand. Propping it up in class to view power points along with lectures is a pleasant experience. Things that stood out on this tablet were the extra long battery life, as well as the build in grip stand with the JBL speakers. In addition to the already included MS office 365 subscription, this retailer also included an additional 1 yr subscription. It was on sale at a big box retailer for $319. I recently purchased this tablet for use in school. Seth Colaner is the News Director for Tom's Hardware. Update, 4/1/15, 11:30am PST: Updated spec chart with specific resolution. However, for some users, that versatility may be overshadowed by the multiple shortcomings of the tablet/keyboard combination.
LENOVO YOGA 2 VIRTUAL KEYBOARD WINDOWS 10 BLUETOOTH
The point is, the versatility of the wireless Bluetooth keyboard with the Yoga Tablet 2 is a strong feature. Or maybe you just have the tablet hung up on a nail in your workshop, safely out of the way, but leave the keyboard on your workstation for easy input. Or perhaps you're showing something on the tablet to a colleague, but you need to be able to maintain mouse/keyboard input. For example, the tablet could be parked on a nightstand while you type in bed. Because the Yoga Tablet 2 has its own kickstand, you can leave it undocked and propped up, and place the keyboard wherever it's convenient. Perhaps ironically, using the keyboard and tablet together when they're physically separated is when the match makes the most sense. (If you want to further adjust the kickstand, though, you can do so with the tablet docked.) You have to completely remove the tablet from its dock, flip out the kickstand to your desired angle, and then put the tablet back onto the keyboard. If you plop the tablet into the magnetic cradle and try to flip out the kickstand, you'll find the task virtually impossible. It is here, at the docking bit, that you first notice some issues between the Yoga Tablet 2 and its keyboard. Two Designers, Working In Different Rooms Small rubber feet on the bottom keep the keyboard from sliding around your work surface, and a curved magnetic hinge stands ready to dock the tablet. There's a small switch on the side of the keyboard to turn the device on or off, and a microUSB charging port sits next to it. Never was the lag more noticeable than when pressing the Backspace key it's slow enough that it regularly disrupted my workflow somewhat. However, I did find that the cursor unexpectedly jumped sometimes when working on a document (eg, this article), and I did experience a bit of lag from time to time when typing.
