Unfortunately, while the Lenovo Yoga 13 excels as an Ultrabook with a touchscreen when working with Windows 8, its size makes it too big to be truly useful as a full-time tablet. Folded on itself, as a tablet it’s a bit ungainly, and the widescreen ratio of a laptop just isn’t helpful when you’re holding the machine, rather than the table: it’s too wide to comfortably type with, and impossibly lo...

Great design, IPS screen looks excellent, full Windows 8, good viewing angles, variety of positions is excellent Pricey, keyboard in tablet position feels strange, expensive, some competitors offer more for the cash The Yoga 13 is as much a visual treat as it is an excellently designed laptop.
