What it is actually like
Open any section for the detail behind our verdict.
01Work and screen
The larger high-picture detail screen is valuable for split-screen documents, spreadsheets and photo work. Text is crisp and the keyboard remains one of Lenovo's strengths. People who only browse one page at a time may not gain enough over a cheaper 14-inch model.
02Battery and portability
Efficiency is strong enough for a normal working day, although screen brightness and video calls reduce the headline figure. The aluminium body travels well and provides more built-in connections than the MacBook Air, reducing the number of accessories needed.
03Performance
Office work, large browser sessions and light creative tasks are comfortably handled. built-in graphics can manage casual games, but sustained 3D work and modern high-detail gaming require a laptop with a separate graphics power hardware.
Price and value
The Yoga makes most sense around £1,840.73 with 1TB storage. Lenovo changes promotions frequently, so compare the final listed features carefully; two machines with the same family name can have different screens, memory and processors.

What else should you consider?
£1,840.73 · The Surface Laptop provides a cleaner Windows experience, the MacBook Air remains lighter and quieter, and the ASUS Zenbook A14 is more portable. Lenovo's advantage is the balanced combination of screen, keyboard and connections.
Our review process
This research-based verdict uses Lenovo's stated UK configurations and independent usability testing. Because Lenovo changes components between configurations, buyers are explicitly advised to compare the exact screen, memory and storage rather than relying on the family name.
