Lenovo Yoga 530 review

 

Can the Lenovo Yoga 530 bend over backwards to succeed?

Reasonable processing power ; Intel-beating GPU speeds ; Smart ; Comfortable keyboard, versatile exterior

Dull, disappointing screen ; Underwhelming battery life ; Intel has better CPU speed

The Lenovo Yoga 530 has solid design and reasonable AMD-powered performance, but it doesn’t stand out in any particular area and has a disappointing screen

Fast speeds for price ; Responsive touchscreen ; Smooth 360 degree hinge
