Why the negative feedback on this? Is it just because it's an older model? 16G, 1TB, i5, 2 in 1, all for under $600? Seems like a pretty solid deal.

Probably because the benchmark people will look down upon the 11th gen processor, although it is fine for the intended audience of this laptop.

What's the build quality of the L series? Is it all aluminum?

I think it's around 3 lbs.

Because there is no pleasing some people and they can't recognize just the touch screen is a $200 value.

Honestly this looks pretty legit for the price:
-i5 (even if gen 11)
-16gb
-1tb SSD
-not some rinky dink brand
-1080, and the "nits" police aren't here so that must be decent as well.
-Backlit Keyboard
-Fingerprint Reader
-from Costco so returns are a non brainer and 2 year warranty (I'm assuming the latter)

Ticks pretty much every box you see people on SD whining a laptop at this price range (and not touch screen) is missing.

It has a 100% SRGB Touchscreen display too, so it'll have great color coverage.

Isn't sold by a unethical retailer like Antonline.

Saw this deal on costco.com and thought it was a decent deal for the specs

Processor & Memory:
16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM

Drives:
1TB PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive

14.99 delivery fee.

In my experience the hinges on these 2-in-1 laptops don't last. Never buying another 2-in-1 again (both Lenovo and Dell turned out to be bad), I think both have class action lawsuits for these. Better off buying a separate laptop and tablet. https://topclassactions.com/lawsu...o-proceed/

I've had quite a few from Lenovo. The first OLED yoga with like a 6th gen U series CPU the hinge went after over 5 years of service to a point where the screen was amazing but the CPU was just too slow. two of my kids are at about 3 years with theirs. The older of the two is 12. Lenovo is absolutely better than Dell but some of the Lenovo lines were not as good as some of the others.

I'd still suggest most people just grab one of those $250 ipads and a normal laptop. The high end Yogas are absolutely worth it but the lower end not so much.
