I got the Samsung Flex 2 Alpha - It's actually only 678 right now with an .edu account (https://slickdeals.net/f/15196861-samsung-galaxy-book-flex2-alpha-i5-256gb-487). My previous lenovo flex 5 only lasted 2 years (hinge problem) and felt cheap. I don't know about this one, but the samsung just feels really well built. Too new to say how long it will last.
I bought flex2 alpha but returned it. Screen is really blue, and battery life is poor (5hrs only). I think I might jump on yoga 6 now.

I just bought the Lenovo Yoga 7i the other day. Does anybody have any feedback on which would be better for the long run for general use?
This is better
8 core vs 4 core
16gb memory vs 12gb
Video driver is more mature than xie

Con:
Only one USB c with charging and display
Intel version has 2 USB c ports charging+display enabled

Seems decent if it ticks one's boxes.

Personally, I'm not enamored with a 300 nit16:9 screen.

Also unfortunate it has 3200 memory instead of 4266. If you're gonna solder it, at least put the good memory on. Bummer for the igpu.

16:10 and 400 nits minimum. 3:2 and 500 nits preferred.

But nice screens cost more money.
The RAM is really what got me, because modern APUs are so dependent on RAM frequency and latency. To have Lenovo not only cheap out, but to lock buyers into that is wrong.

Would RAM slots really have made it all that much thicker? Even if it would have, they could have specced a bigger battery in that extra vertical space anyhow.

Yeah, but 4k is TERRRRRRIBLE for battery life (<6-8 hrs).
If you want good battery time and a productive laptop, stick with 1080p and and i5/R5 or i7/R7.
The main problem is the aspect ratio. It's almost impossible to get anything other than 16:9 in these 2-in-1's.

Can the fabric cover be removed completely or replaced?

I got the Ryzen 5 version of this with the same fabric cover and everything. I was unsure of the fabric but once I got it in my hands I didn't actually mind it at all and kind of like it. Would I choose it over a non-fabric? Probably not but this is just to say it may not bother you as much as you'd think. I'm only a bit skiddish if I've got it at the kitchen table and the kids are eating because I'm worried about food/liquid splash that you could normally just wipe off.

Fingerprint reader is just super convenient for logging in quickly. I've got no complaints about the screen but I don't think I'm picky about it, either. Just a small warning that you can hit the dim key enough to actually turn the screen OFF and I have no idea why. First time I did it I was just spamming the dimmer to get it to the lowest setting and was looking at something else while doing so. I thought I was gonna have to take it back to the store for a failed display in the first 48 hours but thankfully figured it out.

Only minor complaints are that the screen is 'heavy' in that if I try to move around with it open it sometimes falls back or opens more due to its own weight and a little movement. Also the angle in which I use the laptop is such that I can see the backlight under the keys directly.

Only major complaint is that it sometimes does not wake up. If I leave it and it falls asleep, when I come back and try to use it the thing just doesn't wake up. The keys are lit up but the screen is black. Have researched it a number of times and have seen a few threads with a lot of people complaining of the same but have not figured out how to fix it. Seems to have gotten better since I started just putting the computer into hibernate manually with the power button when I'm done with it instead of letting it go to sleep.

All in all I really like the computer. Smilie

How do you feel about the temps and fan noise when it's on your lap? How many hours of battery life are you experiencing?

I honestly haven't tested out the battery life fully, but it's probably ok. I wouldn't say it's great - maybe on average 6 hours or so or more with lower screen brightness. For me that's plenty as I just use it at home. If I wanted really good battery life and didn't care about Windows, I would get the Mac M1 Air. I need/prefer Windows though so this is fine.
I currently have the 4700u variant of this with almost the same power draw and I easily get 8 hours on a charge and sometimes up 11 hours. Are you sure you only get 6 hours?

I was thinking of perhaps getting this, transferring my hard drive over and selling the 4700u as the extra power might be good for when I do heavy photo editing.

I just wrote out a reply in the app but lost it all when I accidentally clicked outside of the text box so this next version is going to be shorter.

I don't really notice the fan that much while I'm using it, but oddly enough notice it when I'm done and I'm ready to put the laptop away. That is, it often seemed to kick on when I was putting it to sleep and I don't know why that would be. This leads me to set it down on its lid / upside down because I often set it on top of another laptop and don't want it heating it up. It's never gotten hot enough to bother me while using it but I don't do anything intensive. Just stuff on the web and the occasional Word or Excel document.

As far as battery life I use it for short periods at home and charge it occasionally overnight when I notice that it's low. So I'm sorry but I can't really provide any useful feedback regarding battery life.

Thanks, OP.
Exactly what an engineering student needs to compliment their desktop.
i7 / R7
16GB RAM
2-in-1 for note taking or drawing.
$700 is a very good price for the specs.



Yeah, but 4k is TERRRRRRIBLE for battery life (
To add to this, based on the Q&A on the product page, it has stylus support. You would need an The AES Protocol active pen (such as the Wacom - Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus).


I bought this laptop for my wife yesturday, should arrive tomorrow, gonna take it to the store for a price adjustment, and use the difference for a stylus

With how fast win 10 boots, is there a reason too put it to sleep? It's like 10sec if that.

I have the ThinkBook also, and I always just shutdown, which allows a clean reboot each time. Love Lenovo products. Now have 3 Lenovo 2-in-1 laptops since June 2020.
