The new Yoga 710 series is the replacement for the older Yoga 700, which debuted at the end of 2015. The “Yoga” in the name isn’t merely for show, as these notebooks are capable of folding their displays 360 degrees around to transform into a tablet, or two in-between modes. The model we’re reviewing features a 14-inch display, but the 710 series is also available in 11- and 15.6-inch models.
The Yoga 710 14’s key selling points are its premium magnesium-aluminum chassis, stylish design, good quality display, and excellent battery life. It’s too thick and heavy to be considered as a dedicated tablet replacement, but that complaint isn’t unique to this convertible PC. As a matter of fact, we’ve said that about almost every convertible PC we’ve reviewed. The convertible modes should be viewed as a bonus.
Starting at $799.99, we found the Yoga 710 14 to be a solid value. It’s both thinner and lighter than the competing Dell Inspiron 13 7000 series, and is just $50 more than Lenovo’s non-convertible ideapad 710S. It’s still well below the four-figure plus price points of more premium convertibles, like the Lenovo Yoga 900 (13”) and the HP Spectre x360, yet offers most of the quality and features.
