Title: Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro Convertible Review
Post by: Redaktion on November 15, 2014, 08:48:08
Often imitated, never duplicated. Lenovo was a first-mover in the 360-degree hinge segment, but they're not content to rest on their laurels. Instead, the company brings us the thinnest, lightest, and most ambitiously-designed Yoga yet. Don't miss our full review to see how the Yoga 3 Pro stacks up.

Core M shows that Apple and Nvidia >> Intel.
In fact it finally reveals how vastly ooverrated Intel is.

A8X and Denver Tegra offer similar CPU performance, better GPU performance, lower TDP, and all this on 20nm and 28nm respectively !!

And for several times less cost of the chip!!

Just a pathetic showing, and really makes me want Intel to go down the drain fast

Good god what's with the practice of removing the Function keys? Immediate disqualification from purchase.

This is lenovos fault for using the 4.5w version instead of the 6w version of the core m cpu. Also lenovo is heavily throttling the chip to maintain battery life. In comparison with the intel test units the performance of this chip is faster than the haswell i5.

The Yoga 3 Pro could really use a more powerful processor. Seems like it isn't quite worth the price tag if you can't run up to date games and such. Here's my video review if you're interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsArZoKdVKY
