    Seems like a good deal. The reviews aren't very impressive though http://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/laptops/lenovo-yoga-700 especially the battery life.
    The Pros
    Sturdy design; Strong performance; Optional discrete graphics
    The Cons
    Below-average battery life; Shortened Backspace and Right Shift keys
    Verdict
    The Yoga 700 is a capable 2-in-1 that offers snappy performance in a lightweight 14-inch design, but competitors last longer on a charge.

    • vchung916 on 11/05/2016 - 11:09

      I think the review is on the 14 inch model, not the 11 inch here.

      7 hour battery life is not that bad though

        Here's a review of the 11.6 Interesting that its charger has an integrated power brick.

        • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2016 - 13:10

          What is power brick?

        • TheOneWhoKnocks on 11/05/2016 - 13:28

          @fm: Its a plastic 'block'(brick) that is located in the power cord that contains the transformer to convert the AC from mains power to DC, in which devices such as laptop function on.

        • [Deactivated] on 11/05/2016 - 14:04

          @TheOneWhoKnocks: so all laptops have power brick right? I don't get it…

        • TheOneWhoKnocks on 11/05/2016 - 14:14

          @fm: I think what he means by 'integrated' is that the transformer is actually built into the chargers plug.

        • eug on 11/05/2016 - 14:16
          +1

          @fm: I don't think oztonyau described it correctly. The charger doesn't have an integrated power brick, the charger is an integrated power brick. I would have just called it a phone-charger-style charger. :)

        • oztonyau on 15/05/2016 - 09:01

          @eug: It's not my description. It's in the cited review: "The charger has an integrated power brick, too, so it’s not too much trouble to carry with you."

        • eug on 15/05/2016 - 11:57

          @oztonyau: It definitely didn't look like a quote. In any case that's not an accurate description for that charger.

    • Raynes on 11/05/2016 - 11:19

      A review for this model suggests battery life is better than the 14 inch, but screen quality is disappointing depsite FHD.

      • ozmu on 11/05/2016 - 12:14

        Thanks. That review is slightly better though 3 stars is hardly a great buy. But for that price may be it is worth a go.

  • Truthbe on 11/05/2016 - 10:58

    Do you think its possible to use Premiere pro to edit some 1080p videos with this?

    • scud70 on 11/05/2016 - 11:06
      +5

      i would doubt it with the M processor, it may be "possible" but i cant see it being something anyone would want to put themselves through :P

    • ozmu on 11/05/2016 - 12:06

      I would not do it on this laptop though you might get away with it for occasional video edits. If doing it for a living then go for something better.

    • Diji1 on 11/05/2016 - 17:34

      Yes it will be fine. It'd be fine on a PC you bought 10 years ago.

  • cameldownunder on 11/05/2016 - 11:06

    Is the tablet part removable? Or you can only flip back the keyboard?

    • lyl on 11/05/2016 - 11:08

  • systmworks on 11/05/2016 - 11:18

    This looks like a great deal. Although the 4K screen version for ~$900 available a few weeks ago, might have been better (albiet more expensive).

    • macrocephalic on 11/05/2016 - 11:39
      +8

      Not sure that 4k would be necessary on an 11" screen. I think it would suck power without providing much benefit. Your opinion may vary.

        Apparently, it does have international warranty according to this:

        • CyberMurning on 11/05/2016 - 13:04

          not sure about that. the chat rep said yes international but only for thinkpad series not yoga

          @eisniwre:

          Chat wouldn't give me an accurate answer without the serial number.. I would assume there will be no global warranty on these units..

        • ozmu on 11/05/2016 - 15:53

          @jbnz: I have one for work (not this one) and it died while I was in Ireland last year. They specifically said that the orange ones do not have international warranty.

          @MadamePolyglot:

          Thanks for some clarification.. Doesn't sound great.. I did however factor this risk and decided to take a risk and order one..

          What model Lenovo was yours that died?

        • lyl-Lychee on 11/05/2016 - 18:48

          @jbnz: dam. That's a deal breaker for me too :( just not worth the risk/headache

        • lovetoshop23 on 11/05/2016 - 19:38

      ram prob not, but already 8gb anyway, enough
      ssd, looks like yes! amazon review:

      It offers Windows 10 Home and a few Lenovo programs. Sadly it has but 128GB M.2 SATA SSD mine is a Liteon affair. For just surfing this is fine. You can add an external USB hard drive for extra space and the 2.5" ones are quite small. You could take the back off and swap the SSD for say a Samsung 500GB M.2 SSD (as I have done) which would increase speed too but of course add to the price…

        I agree. Something like a smartphone should cost at least half of today's standards especially considering they last no more than 2 years.

      Not necessarily. Lenovo K80M has 4GB of ram, 64GB rom, 1080 screen - and is $275. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 has a 1080 screen, 2GB ram, 16GB rom, and is $240.

      It's the big name brands who are ripping us off.

      • eug on 11/05/2016 - 17:12

        There's more to a phone's price than just the cost of parts though. R&D into latest technologies like super AMOLED or wide-gamut LCD screens, better camera sensors and lenses, high-speed UFS storage, thin but solid designs, high-speed/wireless charging, advertising campaigns, cost of local support, cost of staff to produce firmware updates, etc.

      • Diji1 on 11/05/2016 - 23:50

        Terrible comparison given they aren't the same device form.

        Or even the same hardware platform.

        • macrocephalic on 12/05/2016 - 09:24

          The person I replied to had directly made the comparison between laptops and phones. I just pointed out that some phones are cheaper than others.

      • lyl on 11/05/2016 - 13:00
        +1

        Yes it's Amazon's exchange rate (they charge a lot extra if you pay in AUD). If you have a fee free card such as 28 degrees, it is recommended to pay to pay in GBP to get the conversion of $592.

        • systmworks on 11/05/2016 - 13:02

          Agreed - dont pay in AUD - pay in native currency and let the bank convert it. Use Google to convert the GBP total to AUD to see approx how much it costs.

          If you use 28 Degrees or Coles Mastercard I think there is no currency conversion fee.
