Lenovo Yoga 730-13IKB (i5-8250U, FHD) Convertible Review

Flexibility for the masses. Lenovo's 13.3-inch Yoga 730 is an elegantly designed consumer 2-in-1 with impressive performance, great ergonomics and good battery life. Throttling under heavy load remains an issue, however - although that's less of a drawback than one might think.

The charging USB-Port has been upgraded from 3.0 in the yoga 720 to 3.1 (Gen2 with Thunderbolt).

Weighting only 1.2kg and with full PCIe x4 TB3 and NVMe this is definitely the best 2 in 1 for only $750.

I got the Yoga 730 ('upgraded' from IdeaPad 720s). Sadly, my screen observations are inverse of that from your reviews.

My IdeaPad 720s had an LG Phillips panel but had no/ little PWM. Tested this with my camera phone, even at 1/20000 shutter speed I don't notice any flickering.

Got a Yoga 730 today with an InfoVision panel. It flickers at 350Hz (tested on my camera phone once again and I noticed no flickering only at 350Hz). This is sad and I am already experiencing some eyestrain. I am putting the laptop for sale -- can't take the glossy, PWM laden screen and also the fear that the screen will start becoming faulty (flickering seems to be a very common issue on this laptop!).

Same story. Infovision m133nwf4 r0 which according to the notebookcheck review of another laptop has got flicker at 200...
Is PWM a reason to claim warranty and have the unit replaced?

This is the worst laptop I have ever bought. Serious issues with the wifi card, constantly drops and has to be reconnected. Battery life is awful after 6 months, The heat generated when plugged in is unbearable on your legs. My keyboard has now started acting up. Even on full power settings on battery the machine becomes super sluggish. Lenovo used to make great machines, not anymore. Customer support is awful. This laptop has serious problems with Windows 10. Will never buy another Lenovo product. This machine is expensive thrash regardless of this somewhat puzzling review by the author.
