Lenovo Yoga C740-15IML

Price: £755 (inc VAT) from fave.co/2wIB4as

The Lenovo Yoga C740-15IML is one of the most impressive 2-in-1 laptops we’ve seen in its price range. Weighing in at just 1.4kg and jammed with nifty features, the slim, sturdily built, Yoga C740 packs in plenty of productivity pep, and it can last the whole day without its AC adaptor. A bright, Dolby Vision-enabled display plus Dolby Atmos sound provide plenty of eye and ear candy. A physical camera shutter (which, unfortunately, is a little tough to slide open and closed) and a fingerprint reader help to bolster security.

In a world where high-end laptops no one can afford get all the attention, and budget laptops can be a bucket of compromises, it’s nice to see a mid-priced laptop that has so much going for it.

Design

Lenovo sticks with the tried and tested when it comes to the Yoga C740’s design. The update boasts the same smooth, fingerprint-resistant lid, and tapered left and right sides as previous Yoga models. Of course, the C740 also boasts the familiar Yoga 360-degree hinge, which lets you swivel the laptop’s display all the way around for tablet use, tent it on a tabletop, or place it with the keyboard facing down and the screen tilted up.
