Reviews for the Lenovo Yoga 510-14IKB
Imperfect. Lenovo has put a largely useless dedicated graphics card in its new 14-inch convertible. Thankfully, the other components ensure the device can do its job as a mobile office companion. In our detailed review, we will check this model and see how its limited battery life and other flaws stack up in comparison to the competition.

If battery life is important to you (and let’s be honest who isn’t it important to) then the fast charge and 8 hour battery life is a plus worth paying for. With crisp display, ample storage (some have a 1TB drive) and the ability to be a notebook or tablet, the Yoga 510 is a great notebook, but with a price tag of about R10k, this is not something I would bend over backwards for.

AMD Radeon R5 M430: Entry-level graphics card based on a 28nm GPU with DirectX 12 support.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
