LENOVO YOGA BOOK YB1-X91F – WHEN CREATIVITY KNOWS NO BOUNDS

The Lenovo – known inventors (in a good way), and regularly delight their fans interesting and often unusual novelties. Remember the line of Yoga, which can be considered a fashion trendsetter on-device transfers. Years go by, the style of “Yogi” does not change, the concept remains the same, and yet the manufacturer does not get bored: it will replace the housing materials even better, it will change the principle of operation of the hinge mechanism. And in the case of the Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review also gives you the opportunity to look at the Soup transformable from a different angle!

The novelty will receive a truly extraordinary. It is so light that it seems as if you hold the tablet in hands. But no, the keyboard is, and is not what most people are accustomed to seeing her. And in comes with a magnetic notepad where you can write with the stylus. Admittedly, we are intrigued!

DESIGN

Housing Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy, in two colors: gray (Gunmetal Gray) and gold (Champagne Gold). Cover matte, slightly rough and Mark. Details here to a minimum, or rather, it is only one: the company logo on the right side panel.

The screen surrounded by the best of the large frame on the top of which is a front webcam. The second is a webcam on the work surface, in the upper right corner. Actually, it can be seen under the laptop keyboard with built-in buttons. If you connect the pen is deactivated, the button turns off, and the panel is black, without the slightest sign of life. This feature – not a fad producer: when the keyboard is turned off, on top of it, you can attach a magnetic pad and draw on its pages a stylus Real Pen.

Strap hinge mechanism resembles consisting of 130 parts. It allows you to rotate the screen 360 degrees and, therefore, exploit the Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91L in four modes. Depending on the task, the device can work as a laptop, tablet, or occupy an intermediate position: the console and presentation. By the way, the hinge is made soundly, without the slightest of gaps and inaccuracies.

The build quality is also caused us only positive emotions: the device does not creak, the backlash was found, as well as deflections in the case. In addition to strength, the device pleased with its dimensions: 257h171h10 mm, and weight – only 670 g In general, all the conditions in order to take the Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F with you to work, school, for a walk, etc. respected.

DISPLAY, AUDIO, AND WEBCAM

TheLenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review has 10.1-inch screen was Full HD-resolution (218 ppi). The maximum brightness is nearly 400 cd / m2 black level – 0.37 cd / m2, hence the excellent contrast – 1032: 1. The capacitive screen supports 10 simultaneous key presses.

With IPS matrix, you can not worry about viewing angles, as they are the widest, which is especially important for the transformer. The display is glossy, so the use of the device outside or near a window on a sunny day is better to abstain. In general, the screen is pleased with his performance: the picture is juicy, rich and realistic, the inversion does not appear under any circumstances.

The package Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91L includes Real Pen stylus, which can be drawn on the display surface.

The laptop Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review is endowed with a two-speaker Dolby Audio. Let’s face it: despite the variety of devices, it is very difficult to find a 10-inch form factor with high-quality sound. Manufacturers of such devices (as in the case of Yoga Book YB1-X91F) are betting on the mid and high frequencies, trying to somehow justify the lack of bass. Note that the speakers are quite decent, anyway, the sound is quite enough for a small room. Wheezing at maximum volume there.

A front webcam has a resolution of 2 megapixels. It is suitable for more should not count. Resolution of the second camera – 8 MP, autofocus. It has a non-standard location – right upper corner of the work surface. You can use it to do good quality pictures, especially if you pick a good light.

KEYBOARD AND TOUCHPAD

The keypad of the Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review we find extremely interesting. Let’s start in order: Halo keyboard is activated in the “laptop” mode. It is virtual, respectively, in the on-state buttons are lit, and off – working surface is just black. Initially, the process of typing on it seems unusual, but after a while, the fingers are adapted. Intelligent Keyboard: while you type, it stores the speed and accuracy of typing. Through optimization software is able to prompt the end of words, corrects errors in a word, promotes quality printing.

By the way, no protruding buttons – is even plus: just imagine how easy it is to clean a keyboard! The key arrangement, their shape, etc. is not particularly different from their counterparts in the traditional keyboard. For example, the button [Enter] – single-row, we can say tiny. Under it – [Shift], the same key is, and vice versa. Digital unit, of course, is available.

But that’s not all the surprises that prepared the company Lenovo. In addition to the laptop directly to Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F and stylus, the user receives another amusing contraption – Book Pad Notepad A5. It is mounted on the operation panel (keyboard, of course, turned off), and then you can write on it with the stylus sheets Real Pen. All that will be written, the laptop transforms into a digital form, thus recording and tagging, you can edit, organize and share with friends. By the way, the stylus writing ink, which adds to it, even more, resemblance to a ballpoint pen. However, please note that the supply of ink is not eternal, and when he finished, Real Pen will have at their own expense (3 refills cost $ 15). The same applies to the paper: a spare set, consisting of 20 pages, and will cost $ 15.

Furthermore. With Lenovo NoteSaver applications disable keypad turns to Create Pad panel. By drawing on it with the stylus, you will immediately be able to evaluate the result that appears on the screen at once. Real Pen recognizes 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity, it does not need to be recharged. So summarize: a stylus can be used in three modes: traditional press the screen, draw directly on the operating panel and on the paper, which is attached to the magnets surface (keyboard must first be turned off in the latter two cases). For paper has a special rod with ink and when the ink runs out, it is necessary to invest in new ones.

Of course, when working in “tablet” mode, “Console” and “presentation” keyboard is automatically deactivated, and in the case enters the virtual. Nothing complicated about it is working: the buttons are large, easy to get on them. In addition, each user has the ability to change the language, keyboard layout, layout, etc., in general, do everything to give it a maximum of individuality.

Finally a few words about the touchpad. It is located under the keyboard, perhaps even too close to space. Pointing rectangular shape, rather small. With its objectives, touch pad copes well: works quickly and supports multitouch.

PERFORMANCE

Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review is sold with Windows 10 Home 64-bit onboard. There is also a version of Android, but on the Russian shelves, it is unlikely to fall. The basis of the filling is a quad-core Intel Atom x5 Z8550. Its base frequency 1440 MHz can be increased up to 2400 MHz. The chip is built on norms of 14-nm process technology, it has 2 MB of cache memory and consumes only 2 watts of electricity.

As for graphics, in this case, we are talking about the Intel HD Graphics integrated graphics 400. It has 12 actuators that operate in the frequency range 320-640 MHz. GPU is compatible with DirectX 11.2, as well as Shader 5.0. But with older toys, it makes sense to try: for example, BioShock Infinite (2013) on the low settings and a resolution of 1280×720 pixel display 20 frames per second. Tomb Raider on medium settings with a resolution of 1366×768 will go with 10 fps, the same figure, and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (2011).

In the notebook Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review has 4 GB of RAM LPDDR3 standard. The amount of internal memory is 64 GB, and thanks to the memory card it can be increased by another 128 GB.

PORTS AND COMMUNICATIONS

The set of interfaces from Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review modest. On the left side are the port Micro-USB,  Micro-HDMI, and microSD card reader.

On the right is the volume rocker, the socket for charging and headphone jack.

Sensors in the device are accelerometer, light and Hall sensors, GPS. Wireless Communications – Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac and Bluetooth 4.0.

BATTERY

The Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review has a Lithium-Polymer battery with a capacity of 8500 mAh (32 Wh). The device is idle will last about 19 hours surfing the web will drain it for 8 hours. The maximum load Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F will operate approximately 3 hours on a single charge. We enjoy this result and you?

By the way, if you plan to load the transformer is often “heavy” tasks, prepare for the fact that his body is warm. However, before throttling will not come, heating is not critical, but the hands still feel the warmth. When surfing the web, working with documents, or with a stylus, and the like discomfort models will not.

CONCLUSION

Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy, so it is light and durable. The transformer can operate in one of four modes: laptop, tablet, console and presentation. High-quality Full HD-screen – certainly also a plus laptop.

This new interest, especially creative people, and those who prefer a non-standard approach to work and entertainment. The fact that the machine is supplied with a stylus that can be used in three ways: traditionally the screen, draw on the work surface, as well as on paper. In the latter two cases, all that you write with the stylus will be immediately displayed. We also liked the idea of a built-in keyboard Halo, which the manufacturer calls “intellectual.”

However, there are some controversial issues. Firstly, the meager set of interfaces, and secondly – the weak hardware components. On the other hand, the game is rather an option in this case, because it is clear that the device is “sharpened” not to do so. The third point is that we did not like is the fact that the user has to buy paper and ink when they run out. First, the price tag Lenovo Yoga Book YB1-X91F review we seemed pleasant (on average, $ 770), but given the inevitable spending on accessories ($ 30 for ink and paper), we do not think so. However, the price – a very subjective factor, and willing to try the new product, we are sure there will be many.

Quick review of Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga

Over the past couple of months, we have seen a lot of ThinkPad notebooks. The guests visited the flagship and the X1 the Carbon , and relatively non-standard for business-line Yoga 460 today to talk about a hybrid of these models -. Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga review. The company calls it the thinnest business laptop “4-in-1” with a screen diagonal of 14 inches. Let’s sort out what he’s good.

DESIGN, ERGONOMICS, STYLUS

Any ThinkPad – is primarily a working tool that can be seen on the box. Despite the fact that the device is well beyond $ 1,000, no one is trying to flirt with the buyer. The notebook comes in a simple cardboard box with a modest content: laptop power supply connector with an Ethernet connector and VGA, documentation.

Do not be lying if I say that all ThinkPad design is virtually identical, including the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga review. Before us is a laptop in the classic matte black design, with small red accents on the keyboard and touchpad, as well as a variety of indicators.

The latter here quite a lot and they are all the way: on the corporate logo on the lid of the fingerprint scanner on the function keys mute the sound and Esc / FnLk plus one near the power supply connector.

All glow green or orange depending on whether or not the notebook charged on or off the sound. Too much attention is not attracted but will help you quickly get the right information.

The model is interesting for its size – 14-inch laptop, but thanks to the side frames average width it is perceived quite compact, and the weight of 1.39 kg allows you to easily carry it in a bag or backpack. It turns a handy tool, because the screen size is visually much more than the classic 12- and 13-inch devices and using there is no sense of a small laptop.

Yoga hinge allows it to fold in different ways that can be useful, for example, on the road when you need to work or watch TV series on the plane. Transformable allows more comfortable to install the device on a small table.

Connector Set a good, but not perfect. There are three USB 3.0 (one is always active), the video outputs Mini DisplayPort, HDMI, composite Mini-Jack for the headset, and a rear flap hides a slot for SIM-card and MicroSD.

Yes, there is no standard slots for SD memory cards, but a place for him, if desired, be found.

The slot on the right side is hiding an active stylus, a little further there is the small volume on and keys.

Another interesting engineering solution – retractable frame above the keyboard when you are using a laptop in the stand mode or tablet. The frame protects the keyboard and area from unnecessary scuffs. In general, in many ways the model repeats a little more affordable ThinkPad Yoga 460, only made in a thin shell of a composite alloy according to MIL standard, offers a range of hardware configurations.

In terms of ease of use to a minimum Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga reviews comments. Here is one of the most convenient backlit keyboard, the touchpad is a medium-sized with good sensitivity, trackpoint with additional keys.

Keyboard and Touchpad do not require getting used to – with them to work comfortably from the very first minutes.

DISPLAY

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga review – one of the first laptops that are available in versions with an OLED display. We got a simple version with IPS matrix of 2560 x 1440 resolution points. The manufacturer claims about the presence of anti-reflective coating and brightness of 300 units.

According to our measurements, the brightness varies from 3 to 273 cd / m², there is the Auto Brightness Sensor. The measured contrast ratio – 1 to 1128. As for the business laptop, X1 Yoga boasts high accuracy and natural colors.

IPS-matrix differs from standard viewing angles, and the presence of anti-reflective layer significantly in practice. If behind a window, it is not necessary to increase the brightness to the limit, for comfortable work it will be enough just to increase it slightly and remain at least spurious reflections and visible fingerprints.

Since this is a convertible, all Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga review equipped with touch screens with good sensitivity.

AUTONOMY

The company offers including modification with IPS panel Full HD resolution. The latter can be very handy because the higher resolution display notebooks are bad for the time off work.

This is also true for the test laptop. The company claims that the built-in battery is 52 Wh model will work up to 11 hours. In practice, these results can be achieved except by working only in a text editor. In normal office mode with Chrome, Skype, editing documents get five or six hours, but the configuration with Full HD displays will work as promised.

It should be noted with respect to the compact power of 45 watts. Unfortunately, it comes standard with a thick power cord, so the entire structure turns out not so small as it could.

HARDWARE PLATFORM, NOISE, HEAT, SOUND

Test the laptop Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga review is equipped with a 14 nanometer Intel Core i7-6600U processor, 16 GB of DDR3 RAM and SSD standard disk Samsung 512 GB. This is one of the maximum configurations.

Also the available version with simpler chips Intel Core family of drives and PCIe NVMe. There TPM-module and convenient fingerprint reader, which you just need to put your finger (like smartphones).

With the rest of the “iron” is also no problem – there are dual-band Wi-Fi with support for 802.11 ac, Bluetooth 4.1 and a built-in 3G-modem.

For office tasks, such equipment is more than enough, and in all other cases, especially when you need graphics performance, the performance will be limited capabilities integrated video core.

The operation of the cooling system is in most cases lost or virtually invisible in the background noise. Even under load remains barely warm laptop Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga review.

About built-in speakers do not say anything special – they are just normal. There have clean, and the volume is enough for watching videos or listening to the background music.

PROS: a classic design; comfortable keyboard and touchpad; excellent IPS screen, the availability configurations with OLED-displays; housing made of composite materials according to MIL specifications and features compact size; modem and a fingerprint scanner
CONS: very high price; time WQHD display configurations; No SD-card reader; Ethernet and VGA are connected via the supplied adapter

CONCLUSION

The company “crossed” the classic Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga review with popular in the consumer segment Lenovo Yoga. The result is a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga – a good business laptop is a top-class form-factor transformer. Like all such devices it boasts ergonomics and good equipment. In Europe, for the model will be asked to $ 2,000, which greatly reduces the potential audience for the device, but the real consumers of laptops that will not stop.

Lenovo Phab 2 Review

Ruler PHABLET Lenovo Phab was published in autumn 2015. The company showed two models: a simpler and Lenovo Phab Phab Plus. This year’s lineup Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification triple replenishment. The Lenovo Phab consider the target audience of young people who are accustomed to communicating via internet messaging and smartphone for them is not a “second screen” for the older generation and the first. With him they are watching the video in the mornings and evenings, with him – call via the Internet services using video, send messages to it. This positioning is well embedded in the scripts of the Asian markets, in particular for native Chinese companies, which is important for people to the big screen, as they have permanent access to the network, and it can be used to the full extent even in the subway. It is also important for them to price – because if a person has money, he would go and buy the popular iPhon e region, and only if not – will look towards the budget proposals of their own producers. It was then that the company arrived, and with his proposal. In this review, we are introduced to the youngest model in the lineup.

In line, Phab2 includes three devices: in fact, Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification, easiest, older – Phab2 Plus is , masthead – Phab2 Pro – the first commercial smartphone Tango Project.

All models are equipped with a 6.4-inch display but differ in technical details. If we talk about the difference between Phab2 and Phab2 Plus, it is the processor and screen size, as well as a fingerprint reader, which is the Plus model.
The main difference from last year’s series – modern design and more filling.

CONTENTS OF DELIVERY

Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification comes in a compact (by the standards of their size) box with minimal accessories. This charger, microUSB cable, and clip. In addition to them in the box and present a guarantee statement. Standard set for a cheap smartphone decent Chinese manufacturer.

DESIGN

Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification has clearly captured the trend in the design of smartphones for the mass audience. She wants to see the metal housing (permissible use “on a metal” plastics, the main thing that visually looked noble material), at least elements on the rear panel and interesting colors. Appearance Lenovo Phab 2 fits into this concept. The smartphone is available in two colors – Champagne Gold and gray metallic, no conservative black or white.

Housing plastic, although until the first scratches can accept it for the metal. From the hands of the smartphone does not slip.

Faceplate Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification angular and substantially different in design from the Phab line models last year. Design – strict, obviously with an emphasis on the business audience (hard to imagine such a machine in the hands of hipster). On the one hand, a rounded body in the spirit of last year, it would better impact on the ergonomics of the device. On the other – in such size has little that can seriously affect the usability. But in fairness, I note that any PHABLET much smaller 7-inch tablet, whom he competes.

Above the screen stands on a ledge of a millimeter – it protects the display from scratches if you put it down on a table.

In the upper part of the display is the speaker in the body color – golden, eye front camera, the Auto Brightness Sensor and LED, announce events.

Under the screen – three touch-sensitive keys. There are lights, it lights up when you touch the buttons and lights a couple of seconds. In the dark to find them is not easy. And the interface is not the menus with the backlight duration. The lower part of the frame below the screen wider than the top. It has little effect on the ergonomics: if you have to keep your smartphone in one hand, then with these proportions are less likely to drop it.

Under the protective glass bezel around the screen, there is another black frame. But when the screen is off, it merges with it and because of this, it seems that the screen more and more compact body than it actually is. Old as the world focus. With the magic of the display disappears.

On the back of the Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification is protruding camera lens, flash, the manufacturer’s logo and acoustics Dolby Atmos. Last, as it suggests that the sound will be what you need. The camera stands (strange as it was not possible to fit in a nearly 10-mm case), but it saves a few acting on the rim of a millimeter. The idea is that if you put PHABLET on the back of the body as some kind of “dangerous” surface, a side glass will save from damage. Flash – a camera. Around the area of the smartphone body a little heated under load. The edges of the back of the smartphone are rounded for the sake of ergonomics, but visually is still a sense of “square” design.

Volume control keys and lock screen button is brought to the right end. The first – a long, two-position. The second shorter than twice and has a different texture. So even touch clear to touch any button. Both keys barely protrude above the body and have a moderately mild stroke. They can be pressed accidentally in your pocket.

On the left side – the SIM-card format Micro, one of them can be used for Mic roSD. Usually, such decisions at least one of the slots are designed for nanoSIM, but there is not the top -. The hole for the headset and microphone Bottom -. MicroUSB-jack and two speakers grids. In fact, there is only one speaker, it is right. The second mesh decorative.

The device Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification weighs 225 grams in size due to the large display bypasses any smartphone, but it beats the average tablet. The thickness – about 10 millimeters, but it is understandable why – the battery capacity of 4050 mAh resides inside the smartphone. Among the smartphones – a giant, but if you treat it as a full-fledged alternative to the tablet, then “Tablets» Lenovo Phab 2 wins in two accounts for the compactness of the body.

With such dimensions and weight using a smartphone in one hand, it is impossible. Is that during the conversation. Another thing – typing on a smartphone with a large display with both hands. I have long been perceived as the smartphone suitable device to enter text, and if 5-5.5-inch screens have to try to get in a good right key virtual keyboard, the 6.4-inch screen makes typing as comfortable as in principle it is possible on the screen.

High-quality assembly, parts fit well, although if long to try to push the back side of the smartphone and touch the battery with your finger, it will be done.

DISPLAY

Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification equipped with a 6.4-inch IPS-display with oleophobic coating, Auto Brightness and HD fixed to dial. It is responsive and does not collect fingerprints. From scratch, its Gorilla Glass protects the unknown generation. However, the main thing that protects the good. Angles maximum viewing.

In the menu, a separate item settings enabled work gloves there. However, the display responds to some mittens made of thick fabric. The smartphone can be unlocked independently in a bag or pocket because of the soft power keystroke. So he began to not send someone a message or call, it is better to set a lock screen graphic or the PIN-code.

Auto Brightness basically works correctly, although there are times when for no reason, no reason at light goes out or below the comfortable level is brighter than one would like. Enable or disable the auto-mode is on the curtain notifications.

Maximum screen brightness Lenovo Phab2 is 320 cd / m². This is enough for comfortable work outdoors in most cases. In summer, the fine days will have to look into the picture. Minimum – 5.7 cd / m².

Contrast is acceptable – 717: 1. Modern smartphone screens often more contrasty, but Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification is still good for watching movies and photos. The color temperature of 6500K corresponds to the reference, and only in a very dark and light colors become colder. The error is small – and opinion did not even notice. The display settings menu, you can adjust the color temperature.

The graphs display measurement shows that the color gamut corresponds approximately to a comfortable user sRGB space, only in green, yellow and red it is wider. In practice, this is not exactly from any discomfort. In terms of the balance of colors, brightness and responsiveness of the display are good.

Detract from the viewing of multimedia content may perhaps that resolution: 1280×720 pixels give a grainy image with a pixel density of 229 pixels per inch on the diagonal of 6.4 inches. At its closest competitor, Xiaomi Mi Max, already at Full HD (supposed) comparable price.

AUTONOMY

For a smartphone Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification with a large display balance between body size and long battery life due to the size of the battery, – the biggest headache. The 6.4-inch Lenovo Pha b 2 used battery capacity of 4050 mAh. Due to the low resolution of the matrix, is not the most voracious processor and a high-capacity battery smartphone good shows itself in hours of work. From one day under a heavy load and a half days without listening to music, using the camera, only a few hours of surfing the web communication messengers. Recovery resources battery too long, we are talking about more than two hours, expect less would be strange if such a container.

In the test of battery life with the screen brightness of 200 cd / m² unit lasted 7 hours and 40 minutes. Faster than a working day, the battery does not exactly sit. For PHABLET is an excellent result.

The battery settings can be found two ways of power saving settings. Auto, in which the system itself decides where and how to save. And manual – to customize optimization applications.

HARDWARE PLATFORM

The Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification used on the MT8735 SoC chip, which includes four cores running at 1.3 GHz. The graphics core Mali-T720. The system was introduced in 2015 and is designed for mid-range devices. It supports all modern communication standards up to 4 G in all the popular bands and a screen resolution of up to 1920×1080 pixels. Made on a 28-nm process technology – that is no different than the maximum energy efficiency. But paired with a low-resolution display and a high-capacity battery smartphone running long enough.

The two younger model line Phab 2016 has 3 GB of RAM. With the equipment of a smartphone copes well with daily tasks. Although it should be understood that the speed corresponds to the price, and in direct comparison with the more expensive models, the difference, especially in the smooth interface is visible, and it is not in favor of Phab2. The shell is stable, problems of suspension have not been noticed. From unpleasant moments – smartphone indecently long runs after the restart.

Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification suitable not only for daily tasks – he copes with many modern games, not at least because of HD LCD monitor. Real Racing 3 is without problems, Asphalt 8 bit graphics sags. In Need for Speed fps no problem with again. In general, the game demands the average user Phab2 smartphone suit.

The device supports 5 GHz Wi-Fi. During use, Lenovo Phab2 I have several times drew attention to the fact that the device is not always possible to switch from Wi-F i 3 G – sometimes for Internet access have to restart your smartphone. One might offend the poor quality of the network in the city center, but a reboot helped in all cases. Perhaps the problem is a particular instance.

By the GPS no complaints. But attention is drawn to the discrepancy in the testimony of the pedometer Lenovo Phab2 and other smartphones. Often Phab 2 gave less result.

The smartphone Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification is equipped with a slot for MicroSD, combined with the slot of the second SIM. According to some data, it supports memory cards with a capacity up to 128 GB, on the other – up to 256 GB. Both options are good. Internal memory capacity is 32 GB.

SHELL

Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification out of the box running Android 6.0 operating system, on top of which is used VibeUI. Corporate interface Lenovo little modified from generation to generation, from the stock Android in this version, is distinguished primarily by the design and the availability of third-party applications (in particular to protect the device, disk cleanup, synchronization, and data transfer).

The interface has a separate application menu, scroll vertically in it (and in the same gallery – a familiar, horizontal, still have to get used to the different logic). The smartphone settings menu there is a separate item, where you can activate the “smart” gestures unlock by double tapping, automatic answer with to ear, keyboard, adapted for one-hand operation, and even eye protection mode that ensures that the user does not hold the device too close to the face.

Customizable status bar – in the appropriate menu, you can choose what information to display on it.

Attention is drawn to the fact that Android 6.0 even adjust time mode “Do Not Disturb” is stored in the cloud. And during the transition to the new device are automatically tightened. At Lenovo Pha b 2 has a curious feature of the mode of operation – it is impossible to adjust the volume of the headphones.

SOUND

The sound of the smartphone can be characterized as normal for the price category. The speaker is one – and it felt, but it’s loud, and it can, depicts surround sound. The squeaks and rattles are not disrupted. With the sound of the headphones – the same story. This is not some smartphone and PHABLET middle segment, consumer-oriented text and video content on the Internet. His money on the part of the sound he fulfills. Movies you can watch comfortably without external speakers.

In the application, the menu has a proprietary equalizer Dolby Atmos, by default, it is turned off. If you activate the app, you can select one of the audio modes – movies, music, voice and two modes for audio settings to your liking.

CAMS

Cameras – the weak point of the smartphone. Application for recording a minimum of settings and modes. Conveniently, the HDR and flash at your fingertips, you can enable one-click. To take only one normal – cars. Remaining (AR, panorama, surround the portrait, night scene) – too exotic for everyday use. This is both good and bad. Well, that does not have to be confused by a large number of settings. Bad – because the picture settings will not be saved.

Main (13 megapixel) and front (5MP) is practically useless in low light. Cloudy autumn Kiev – is a serious test for both cameras. Even during the day the photos. Option shooting beautiful scenery viable photo with small details, most likely, will not work.

Filming in the current cloudy weather may brighten HDR mode, the algorithm processes the image good, as long as the hand did not tremble.

PHOTOS WERE TAKEN IN HDR MODE

Night club, concert, sunset – it’s not forLenovo Phab 2 full phone specification camera. A person with a “smooth” hands may get squeezed out of it is more or less acceptable results. But a beginner who with cameras in the “you” do not get anything worthwhile.

For comparison – so in the same conditions removes Meizu M3S. The result is a little better. Although smart three times cheaper.

Apparently, Lenovo saw in perspective in augmented reality. The appropriate shooting mode appeared in the chamber. Pretty fun, cartoon pictures very much. Probably, it focused on children.

About selfie at the club can not even think. Under normal artificial or natural light on the front camera photographs obtained minimally acceptable quality.

Example video. Maximum quality – 1080 p , 30 fps. Video quality – normal, average. But the sound is recorded perfectly.

In general, the camera – one of the few options of the smartphone, which can only be recorded in the minutes. Even for the money, it is weak.

PROS: WI-FI SUPPORTS 5 GHZ, A LARGE DISPLAY, BATTERY LIFE, SUPPORT FOR HIGH CAPACITY MEMORY CARDS
CONS: LOW SCREEN RESOLUTION IS NOT VERY RESISTANT TO SCRATCHES MATERIAL THE BACK SIDE OF THE HOUSING, THE CAMERA, THE STRANGENESS WHEN SWITCHING BETWEEN WI-FI AND 3G

CONCLUSION

Lenovo Phab 2 full phone specification here is a feeling that this time with Lenovo aiming not at a young audience, and the average age of users for which the smartphone – is not so much a set of entertainment, as a working tool. Hence – the dismissive attitude towards the camera, a solid “angular” design, and colors that will attract above all very adult boys and girls. If you previously used a 7-inch tablet as a “dealer”, and now it is time to update it without any changes to the form factor, the Lenovo Phab2 (or Phab2 Plus, if the budget allows) is the correct alternative. Here the same huge screen with a much more compact size and a good battery, with the camera, maybe even better. If you look for PHABLET and look at Phab2 as one of the variants of large diagonal, then note that the 6.4-inch screen is outside the comfort zone of most users, and smartphone with dimensions just do not get in your pocket. In addition, the market has a lot of money for comparable smartphones with smaller diagonal, or even the same, but the best characteristics of the display – so again a good look around before making a decision in favor of Lenovo Phab2.

Lenovo IdeaPad 510-15ISK Review: transitions on the bright side

How often do you come across a laptop that meets all your needs? Of course, the range of laptops today is very wide, but choose the appropriate device is ideal for a particular user is very difficult. In this review, we want to tell about the relatively Lenovo new laptop review IdeaPad 510-15ISK. It is equipped with 15.6-inch Full HD-screen, Intel Core i7-6500U processor, a good set of interfaces. Of course, this is not the only thing that can please the device.

DESIGN

Lenovo new laptop review plastic dominates in laptop design, but also found a metal place. The body is made in white color, and if you want to escape from the gloomy colors, it’s time to do it. The lid of the laptop is plastic, in it, in the upper left corner, is the corporate logo. More there is nothing there, right minimalism in its purest form. It should be recognized that the back surface rather easily soiled, but fingerprints and dust particles are removed easily.

We open the Lenovo new laptop review and see all the same white color, except for the keyboard buttons – they’re black. Working surface – aluminum, it is constantly cool, hands on this comfortable. The bottom of the laptop and connected to the top of the oblong hinge. Note that it is somewhat rigid, for example, the device can easily lift the lid by one hand. On the other hand, it is reliably fixed in position without pulling forward or backward.

The Lenovo new laptop review can be upgraded, it needs to roll out the screws on its bottom. As a result, we have the following components available for upgrading: hard disk, RAM, and Wi-Fi module. Sure, you want to know about the size of Lenovo new laptop review IdeaPad 510-15ISK, because this factor affects the mobility device. In general, notebook size – 379h260h23 mm, and weighs 2.2 kg. Well, with all the responsibility that take a laptop anywhere with a can, its weight it will not delay the shoulder. But in order to understand if it will transport the product over long distances, it is necessary to know how things are with the capacity of its battery. However, later on, this.

DISPLAY, AUDIO, AND WEBCAM

The Lenovo new laptop review uses a 15.6-inch screen with Full HD-resolution. Referring to the figures: the density of pixels per inch is 141 ppi, the maximum brightness of just over 300 cd / m2. contrast index is 861: 1, the black level – 0.33 cd / m2. Color rendering imperfect, yet light distortion present. If you are looking to process images using this device, will have to disappoint you: compliance with sRGB color space is 58%, and AdobeRGB, and even less – only 37%.

Matt display, and work at a laptop near the window or on the street – a real pleasure. However, we still advise seeking shade, because the sun’s rays have a negative impact on the displayed image. The screen is based on a matrix of IPS, which indicates the wide viewing angles, regardless of angle.

Harman Acoustic system implemented in Lenovo IdeaPad 510-15ISK is acceptable but no more. The sound is not very balanced, treble sound unnatural, while low and nonexistent. Even at high sound is not very loud, it may not be enough for an average-sized room. The situation is little rescue headphones.

webcam resolution is 1 megapixel. It is enough for video calling, but very little to create quality shots.

KEYBOARD AND TOUCHPAD

The Lenovo new laptop review working surface is made of aluminum, which we will gladly recall. It is silvery in tone the body, and against this background stands out the quite black keyboard unit. The keypad is made on island basis and slightly recessed inside. Its buttons at the bottom are shaped like “smile” that has already become a recognizable and permanent attribute of the Lenovo laptops. Key labeling – white. The keyboard has a numpad in its arsenal and can boast of illumination, however, unregulated. The keypad does not bend even during intensive printing.

As for buttons, often involved when typing, it is worth noting that they have received some of the features. For example, [Enter] key two-row and paired with a slash. Right [Shift] unusually small and lost among the switch unit. Left [Shift] is large, such as he is used to seeing the majority of users. Numpad is located among other keyboard keys without obvious transitions. Because of this, the probability of erroneous pressing neighboring keys, but we are convinced that it is a matter of habit. And finally: the buttons are activated quite quiet, they have a short stroke and excellent returns. Power key device left corner is located above the keyboard, it is circular in shape and is easy to touch.

Despite the fact that beneath the keyboard is quite a few places to get a small touchpad. However, on its performance is not affected: the manipulator works quickly, does not slow down or freezes. It supports various multi-touch gestures, such as scrolling, zooming, etc. At the bottom of the touchpad complemented one physical button that perfectly replaces the mouse button.

PERFORMANCE

Lenovo new laptop review IdeaPad 510-15ISK (80SR00B8RK) operates on the Windows 10 64-bit operating system. As the processor manufacturer uses Intel Core i7-6500U generation skylake. This dual-core SoC clocked at 2.5-3.1 GHz and supports Hyper-Threading Technology multithreading. The chip is made on 14-nm process technology, it has 4 MB cache on the third level and consumes less than 15 watts of power.

Intel HD Graphics 520 is built-in graphics card has 24 actuators that operate at a frequency up to 1050 MHz. She copes with everyday tasks such as Web surfing, working on documents, etc. Fortunately, this is not limited to the filling performance, the notebook comes with more serious calculations, aided discrete graphics NVIDIA GeForce 940MX with 2 GB of DDR3 VRAM own. Graphics Processing Unit is made on 28-nm process technology supports DirectX 12 and Shader 5.0. As for the gaming potential, the situation is as follows (with Full HD-resolution): Doom (2016) on high settings with 16 fps to go, and Need for Speed Race 2016 (2016) – with 23 fps. Some games last year, and a little old run even on ultra settings, for example, Mad Max 2015 with playable 27 frames per second. As you can see, for better playability easier to choose the medium settings and lower the resolution.

The laptop has 12 GB of RAM standard DDR4-2133 MHz out of a possible 16 GB. The data storage system is represented on the hard disk 1 TB (5400 rpm).

PORTS AND COMMUNICATIONS

The Lenovo new laptop review is quite a good set of interfaces. On the right side, there is a USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports, optical drive and a slot for a Kensington lock.

The left side has another port USB 3.0, HDMI and VGA, network RJ-45 connector, card reader 4-in-1 (SD / SDHC / SDXC / MMC), the combined audio jack and a jack for charging the device.

As for the wireless communications, they are, of course, also present. The complete set it is a combined unit with Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac and Bluetooth 4.1.

BATTERY

In the Lenovo new laptop review 2-cell Li-ion battery 2800 mAh. And if all previous specifications have, in general, satisfied, then with the battery situation is different. Given that the majority of modern smartphones is the more capacious battery, watch such a figure in the 15-inch laptop is extremely unusual. In total, the autonomous work laptop to surf the web and video playback last no more than 3-3.5 hours in game mode – 1-1.5 hours. Thus, even though the device has a small size and weight, it will be transported only over short distances.

By the way, the cooling system copes well with its task: even under heavy load Lenovo IdeaPad 510-15ISK you can keep on your lap, it will not cause any discomfort.

CONCLUSION

Lenovo new laptop review IdeaPad 510-15ISK is an excellent student in many ways. So, its appearance is likely to appeal to fans of minimalism, the design is stylish and modern. To display and no claims for professional work, though it does not fit, but it is ideal for surfing the Web, viewing photos and videos. As usual, the keyboard in Lenovo laptops above all praise, our device is no exception. It works silently, while the buttons show a good return. We also liked the stuffing device presented powerful chip Intel Core i7-6500U and discrete NVIDIA GeForce 940MX graphics. We will not hide that we are pleased and 12 GB of RAM, but instead of the HDD, we would prefer to see the SSD.

The set of interfaces is quite good, it is a pity that it does not enter the port of the new generation of USB Type-C. As for the battery, its capacity is quite spoiled the impression from the laptop. Indicators of autonomy, in this case, is quite modest, and the device will work without a power outlet for a few hours. The cost of equipment described in this report is, on average, $ 980 and for that price you get a lot more advantages than disadvantages.
