Design: Plastic Kevlar I’m a fan of the subtle look Lenovo is going for with its new “Legion” line of notebooks.

The Yoga 720 is the mid-range member of Lenovo’s Yoga portfolio, and will be available either as a svelte 13-inch convertible or a bigger 15-inch model. The 13-inch model’s claim to fame is its sleek 0.56-inch profile which is almost exactly the same as its more premium counterpart, the Yoga 910, despite the 720’s lower $869 starting price. MORE: Why Your Next Laptop Should Be a 2-in-1 Personally, I think the 15-inch 720 might be the more interesting of the two, because while both 720 models share similar specs including up to an Intel Core i7 CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB HDD, the 15-inch version also has room for an Nvidia 1050 GPU if you want it....
If the Yoga Tab 3 Plus looks familiar, that’s because it shares an aesthetic with the older Yoga Tab 3 Pro. Unlike the Pro, the Plus doesn’t feature a Pico projector (part of what made it one of our favorite Android tablets).

Unfortunately, the Gram 17 doesn’t make it to the top of our best laptop page because of its weak speakers, midling performance and long-term durability concerns given the flex we noticed in the keyboard and lid.

The problem may be limited to 15-inch, 2016 Macbook Pro models, 9to5Mac and Apple forums (opens in new tab) suggest. On at least one occasion, the popping sound was attributed to a dent in the casing.

Replacing fans and the chassis and reinstalling the macOS didn’t resolve the problem, according to users on the forum....
