  • How does the battery life of the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro compare to other laptops?



    Hey Guys

    I am a freelance writer working on a variety of platforms. I have worked as a freelance writer for over two years now. I have written for sites like Examiner.com, eHow.com, and Hubpages.com. I am also a published author on Amazon. The workload is always more, and I need a laptop with good battery life to move around and not worry about being plugged in all the time. I am currently using HP Pavilion 15z-b000, and it's not working out great. The battery life has slowed, and I have to charge it every 3-4 hours. I am looking for a new laptop with better battery life and performance.

    I have looked at the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro, Dell XPS 13, and the Asus Zenbook UX305. I am leaning towards the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro because it has a great battery life and is a very versatile laptop. It is also a bit cheaper than the other two options.

    The Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro has a battery life of up to 9 hours and is a very versatile laptop. It can be used as a traditional laptop, or it can be converted into a tablet. It is also very light and thin, making it easy to carry around. Though I have decided before taking the practical step and investing in a new laptop, I want to ask a few questions from Lenovo users and laptop experts. Hope I get some useful answers soon.

    What are the pros and cons of the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro?

    How does the battery life of the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro compare to other laptops?

    What are the advantages of the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro over other laptops?

    How good is Lenovo for someone working more than 14 hours a day?

    How can I get Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro at a discount? Is there any website that offers discounts on Lenovo laptops?

    Looking forward to hearing from you all. Thanks!

    Hello haiman.

    From looking at the Yoga 2 pro, the pros is that it can be used as a tablet, or a laptop. It also has rotating hinges giving you the feel of a regular well-constructed laptop as well as other positions to take advantage of Windows 8.1 and the 1080p touchscreen. The cons is that it comes with Windows 8.1; an obsolete operating system. That is, unless you plan on using it as a touchscreen. Also, it doesn't come with much memory. It comes with 4 gigabytes of ram, up to 8 gigs. The SSD comes with an 128 gb one up to 512 gb SSD. The advantage that I see with the Lenovo compared to other laptops is that it can be converted to a tablet as well as a laptop. According to this review, the Lenovo Yoga 2 pro battery life lasts up to 6 hours and 30 minutes. That's not bad. Personally, I think that the Lenovo is pretty old. I recommend getting a laptop with at least 16gb of ram, with a cpu with at least 6 cores. I'm not sure that you can get the Lenovo laptop at a discount. However, if you are on a tight budget, I can understand getting the Lenovo Yoga 2 pro. Also, if you are looking for a touch screen, then I can understand getting a Lenovo Yoga 2 pro. Hope that helps.

        Hey Haimen

        I am also a freelance worker and use Lenovo Yoga 2 pro. It is surely an amazing laptop you can ever get. Here I have answered the concerns that are in your mind. Take a look and thank me later.

        1) Consider a few things before purchasing the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro. Weighing the pros and cons will help you make the best decision for your needs.

        Pros:
        • The Yoga 2 Pro is a powerful and versatile ultrabook. It has a Haswell Intel Core i7 processor, 8 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB SSD.
        • The Yoga 2 Pro has a beautiful, high-resolution 3200 x 1800 display. It's also very thin and light, making it easy to carry around.
        • The Yoga 2 Pro has excellent build quality and a premium feel.
        Cons:
        • The Yoga 2 Pro is more expensive than many other ultrabooks.
        • The Yoga 2 Pro's battery life isn't as good as some other ultrabooks.
        • The Yoga 2 Pro's trackpad could be better.

        2) The battery life of the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro is not as good as some other ultrabooks. However, it is still a powerful and versatile ultrabook with a Haswell Intel Core i7 processor, 8 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB SSD.

        3) Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro is thinner and lighter than many other laptops. It also has a higher resolution screen with 3200x1800 pixels. Its hinges allow the screen to be rotated 360 degrees to be used as a tablet.

        4) Again, as I mentioned, it depends on your usage. If you are looking for an ultrabook that you can use for work and entertainment, the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro is a good option. It has a long battery life for basic tasks such as browsing the web and working on documents. However, if you are looking for an ultrabook for more demanding tasks such as video editing or gaming, you might want to consider a different model.

        5) Some ways to get discounts on Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro. You can check out websites like Amazon and eBay for deals and offers. You can also try coupon sites like https://www.coupongot.com/.

        Hope this was helpful!

            All labtop batteries will die.
            arms
            Lenova brought the Thinkpad/Thinkcentre line from IBM. These are one of the most die-hard brands of labtops with all in one features.

            However many are limited in features in comparison to DELL, Alienware, and HP.

            The bonus side they will ( should ) continue to work even if the battery is drained of storage abilities.

            You have any thinkpad and like me keep it plugged in 24/7 a day you should consider getting a lesser-battery for while it is plugged in. Problem you still not top-of-the-line stuff.

            ..............

            Beyond that I honestly would consider getting a labtop with a specific plug-in-only mode. As all batteries will die.

            A battery should be kept at maybe %10 of it's charge or even %40 when not in use for long periods of time. A %100 charged battery is like a weight-lifter using all their might to lift something. So what is going to happen if your battery/muscles are using %100 of it's power non-stop??? It will have to stop and it's life will be cut-short. You can not ( again by reading ) keep a battery with %0 of charge. Again like any skinny, fat, scroungy, etc person who does not exercise enough they are not using the muscle. In time the body will go after the tissue like any other fat tissue, and will not even able to hold a charge ( lift weight ). So imagine a %10 or %40 charge is like muscles hanging off somebodies arms and or legs not in use but is still being worked so it could be used. Like today I am not lifting 100lbs, but I am lifting 10lbs, or doing calisthenics ( like an ant-man ). That is where your battery should be at most of the time and not plugged in to keep it's life going longer.

            Like my battery that is fail and can barely hold any charge, No longer says %100 ( when it is lying but means 1/10 of %1 or something like that. ) but it now says %90 and the next couple of years it will say %50 and so forth until I can not even it use it to plug in anything at all.

            Labtop batteries are like the same thing as a safety or when the power-go out and my computer does not die. I could switch it off correctly rather then just di.


            .....................


            I have a model W series for work ( which stands for Workstation I guess ). I have a X series non-tablet as well.

            About resolution. Resolution only matters for viewing pleasure not for typing.

            My W model has an orange/red glow to it, which is far healthier then a blue glow my phone or X model or old-flat-screen have.

            Everybody should have SSD, and look into investing in the top brand and highest rating quality. Why? Because of the amount of heat.
            Labtops can easily be heated up and the problem is usually the drives and wireless connection they use that attributes to heat along with any network cables.
            Heat Travels.

            Again memory matters but again think about the heat.

            If you do not use 3d games or programs/apps then you should use non-3d acceleration or disable the driver completely so it would work in basic software processing via the CPU and not the GPU. Again less heat.

            That being said when I had to open my Labtop. The Thermal paste from both CPU and GPU was gone and again considering this is a Thinkpad you should spend the highest quality paste, etc. Newer computers have liquid material for transporting heat like the game consoles for example. Everything is liquid nowadays but the paste works great still.
            Again another reason why a labtop sounds like a blender. Their is no heat transfering.

              My Lenovo Yoga lasted for 6.5 hours. That’s better than completely-fledged work notebooks and it’s higher than many budget hybrids, however it’s 90 mins much less than the Samsung, 3 hours behind the Toshiba Kira, and nearly 1/2 the of the MacBook Air. And I have bought my Lenovo using this https://www.voucherful.co.uk/vouchers/lenovo-uk discount voucher so it was also not heavy on my pocket.
