Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5 - Now we will explain about Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga, the reviews Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga, Specifications Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga, just we discussed below regarding Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5.

Two weeks ago, I purchased a Lenovo laptop to replace my usual G400s use to help activities. And my choice fell on a Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga.

Review Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

Make you curious and intent on buying a laptop but still in doubt, please refer to the review of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga from us.
Design

The first thing I look at when choosing a mobile device is design. ThinkPad Yoga has a solid design and elegant. ThinkPad Yoga entered in the category of ultrabook, with a screen size of 12.5 inches and weighs no more than 2 kg (1.8 kg) make these devices not troublesome to take traveling.

ThinkPad Yoga was designed as a 2-in-1 business laptop, we can have multiple modes i.e. mode laptop, stand, tent and tablets. With the multiple modes option, we could use it as needed. For example, for work can use the laptop mode, when you want to watch the movie could use a fashion tent and when read could use a tablet mode.

The ThinkPad is famous for its sturdy material, along with ThinkPad Yoga. Solid and strong material that becomes the main ingredient of this device.

In addition to the material, one of which became the hallmark of the ThinkPad TrackPoint, is a round red button located on the keyboard. The function of the TrackPoint is similar to the function of the mouse, that is used to direct the pointer. For those unfamiliar, it may be the existence of the TrackPoint is rather strange. But believe me, after you guys can use it, it would be more useful TrackPoint compared to the touchpad.

When assessing a design is very subjective, and according to my ThinkPad has a design ciamik Yoga.

Screen Of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

ThinkPad Yoga comes with a touch-screen protected by Gorilla Glass technology. So we can rest easy when using it both while in another mode or tablet mode. Sensitivity of this screen is also worth a thumbs up, responsive. During two weeks of use, I am having no problems which means when operating this ultrabook with a touch screen.

The graphics of these devices use chips from Intel HD Graphics Family. Quite unfortunate indeed, given ThinkPad dibanderol Yoga price is not cheap. However, if it is only used to play simple games, graphics card capable enough already inis pulled out a nice picture. Oh yes, the resolution of the ThinkPad x 768 1366 Yoga is, HD.

The keyboard and Touchpad Of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

Lenovo has the quality of a keyboard that is not in doubt, nor on the ThinkPad Yoga. Keyboard ergonomic form and tender when used makes this convenient device used when typing.

Touchpad device has a standard size, not too big but quite comfortable to use. Just like the keyboard, the touchpad of the ThinkPad Yoga is pretty sturdy material ala ThinkPad.

No doubt, in this section the ThinkPad Yoga winner.

Audio Of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

Nothing special from the sound produced by these devices. Although Lenovo delivers the sound settings, but for ultrabook at a price approaching 20 million, audio sounds like the laptop at a price of 5 millions.

Battery Of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

Claims the battery from Lenovo for ThinkPad Yoga is 7 hours for standard usage, but in practice, when I use this device, once in charge of not more than 6 hours. When compared to the MacBook Air, the battery's capability of these devices still loses.

Performance Of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

If the intention of you buying a laptop for mobile purposes and work, ThinkPad Yoga is able to meet this need very well. Tablet mode is helpful when we are about to take notes using OneNote + stylus or just simply read. Some games that do not require high graphics can also run pretty well anyway.

Review Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

Others Of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

ThinkPad Yoga that we review this time using intel processors i5 with 4 GB of RAM. Keep in mind, most model ultrabook does not allow us to change the RAM because it was embedded with the motherboard. So if 4 GB of RAM is felt less, you can choose ThinkPad Yoga with 8 GB of RAM.

ThinkPad Yoga comes with front camera, slot 2, slot a USB 3.0 SD-card slot, HDMI and mini jack audio 3.5 mm. Stylus Pen sold separately.

ThinkPad Yoga comes with default applications such as Lenovo Lenovo Support, Companion, ShareIt, and Setting QuickCast is useful to help us more able to explore the capabilities of these devices.

Conclusion Of Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 12.5

Viewed from its specifications, clearly aimed at Yoga ThinkPad business circles who need portable laptop that doesn't involve a time taken to travel. The ThinkPad is very suitable Yoga make you guys are quite mobile.

Drawback if asked, at a price of nearly 20 million, ThinkPad Yoga doesn't carry the specs ' wah '.

Samsung Z is Galaxy on the outside, Tizen on the inside

Samsung Z is Galaxy on the outside, Tizen on the inside

Samsung Z - While Samsung has been a loyal individual of automaton for quite your time, it is also spent the past few years preparation up its own ASCII text file mobile software known as Tizen. when many prototypes and revisions, the corporate finally saw acceptable unveil the Samsung Z -- its 1st ever Tizen smartphone -- a handful of days agone. it had been simply the star of the show at the Tizen developer conference here in San Francisco, therefore we tend to were desirous to take it for a spin. 

Samsung Z is Galaxy on the outside, Tizen on the inside

At first look, you would be forgiven if you mistook the Samsung Z for one in all the company's alternative Galaxy S handsets. It's all terribly acquainted, from the Samsung brand at the highest right all the way down to the one physical home button at very cheap. Flanking the button on either facet area unit hot keys for the menu and back functions severally, which, again, mirrors its automaton cousins. Flip it around, and you may notice that the rear is roofed in this acquainted fake animal skin material we have seen on alternative Samsung devices too. It will have trickster edges than either the recent S5 or the Note three, however, with blandish sides and a so much blockier aesthetic.

Still, the Z itself felt pretty solid from our jiffy handling it, and that 4.8-inch 720p HD AMOLED show remained sharp and vivacious underneath the show floor's fluorescent lights. On either facet of the phone area unit buttons for volume and power, whereas Associate in Nursing 8-megapixel camera with crystal rectifier flash sits on the rear. alternative specs embody a a pair of.1-megapixel front-facing cam, 16GB of storage, a microSD card slot, a generous a pair of,600mAh battery and a a pair of.3GHz Qualcomm flower processor. It even contains a power saving mode, a fingerprint device and a rate monitor -- you recognize, like that Galaxy S5.


But enough of the hardware. Let's get all the way down to what sets this phone with the exception of the remainder of Samsung's mobile lineup -- the Tizen software. We'll simply say it upfront: it's quite bit like automaton, or a minimum of, the TouchWiz version of Google's mobile OS. The app drawer, notification receptacle and settings page area unit terribly similar in look and feel to what we have seen on the GS5. just like the image we tend to saw a number of months agone, you'll be able to even fill the house screen with Tizen's "Dynamic Boxes," or what the remainder folks decision customizable widgets. you'll be able to apparently have as several as 9 totally different home screens, and adding or removing these dynamic boxes is as straightforward as pressing and holding on the bit screen. Further, the camera app is nearly a dead ringer for that of alternative Samsung devices, with similar settings like "Best photo" and "Beauty face."

There area unit a number of unambiguously Tizen touches that stand out, however. the foremost obvious one is that rather than simply four or 5 favorite apps on very cheap of the house screen, you've got as several as eight. in addition, after you swipe au fait those favorite apps, you will pull them to the highest, revealing a split screen of the remainder of your apps beneath. From there, you'll be able to navigate your app drawer as per usual by swiping left and right. you'll be able to conjointly cluster apps along {in a|during a|in an exceedingly|in a terribly} see-thru folder that look very kind of like those on iOS. Also, once you are in split-screen mode like this, you'll be able to simply swap out your favorite apps by dragging and dropping them around as you see work. tho' it is a rather tiny factor, we tend to conjointly likeable {that you|that you simply|that you simply} might modification the interface's color theme just by swapping out the wallpaper.

Understandably, there we tend toren't that several apps that we might play with on the Z, as Tizen is such a young OS. Tizen apps area unit primarily net applications, engineered on standards like WebKit and HTML5. a fast look at the Tizen Store disclosed a astonishingly healthy variety of apps, tho' not ones from recognizable publishers. As you may expect, the Z supports most of Samsung's own applications, like S Health, S Voice and S Translate, all of that we tend to saw on our show floor model.

Samsung Z is Galaxy on the outside, Tizen on the inside

There's no word however on valuation of the Z, however that should not be a priority to most of you, as a result of it'll solely be offered in Russia within the third quarter of this year. Samsung sees it as a check market of kinds, and can be launching Associate in Nursing app challenge in this country to assist the Tizen effort on. once we asked a Samsung voice on however the corporate hopes to promote Tizen next to automaton, all we tend to received was a rather non-committal answer that it is a "multi-platform company" that desires to administer its customers as several selections as attainable. Still, we will not facilitate however marvel if Tizen, and the Z, area unit any signs of Samsung trying to exit of Google's code shadow.
