The strongest surface OLED ThinkPad X1 Yoga Reviews

IT168 evaluation should be light, thin, powerful, quiet and stable, and even a variety of input means and perfect use of touch - with the development of a few years, people are increasingly demanding this category of ultrabooks, Ultimately, the concept of ultrabooks is almost the same as the "ultra thin all-around low power consumption book." However, there are only a handful of ultrabooks that can meet this requirement. Everyone has reached a balance between performance, power consumption, and volume. As the originator of the ultra-pole category, the X1 Carbon series also transformed into the ThinkPad X1 family in 2016, and launched three different ultrabook subdivisions. At the same time, X1 Yoga with high performance and various input methods seems to be the most attractive to Xiaobian. - Whether it is a miraculous OLED 2K touch screen or a very unique flip screen, it is a very rare technological innovation in the notebook industry today.

Today Xiao Bian brings us this evaluation, which is called the strongest ultrabook in the world today. If you don’t have much to say, let’s bring this ThinkPad love and full of curiosity to open this evaluation. If you are interested in this product, you can also buy directly.

Appearance: "family face" that looks like X1 Carbon

X1 Yoga is similar to its big brother X1 Carbon in terms of appearance structure. With the same size and color, if you only look at the A side, you can hardly tell the difference between the two.

In 2016, after the ThinkPad brand was remodeled, the logo of Lenovo was faded to the corner of the A side, and the Logo of the ThinkPad was still printed in that old position, just as the old friends who visited every year were generally very kind.

The material of the A surface is made of aerospace-grade carbon fiber, which is more than three times stronger than that of the previous carbon fiber material, and can better cope with all kinds of bumps. To a certain extent, it can also be said that the X1 series has a unique “soft armor”. .

Everything turned out to be different after you opened the screen. An all-in-one Corning Gorilla Glass wrap is the most shining part of X1 Yoga's screen. This screen integrates wide color gamut, high resolution, multi-touch, and pressure-sensitive pen support. It also has natural high-contrast, high-brightness OLED components. No matter which aspect is the strongest screen in ultrabooks. one. In practical terms, this 14-inch screen is almost perfect.

The keyboard portion of the C-side looks almost exactly the same as the X1 Carbon, both from the ThinkPad Japan Laboratory, which has a history of 20 years. The perfect keystrokes, pitch and tactile sensation brings the perfect typing experience that only the ThinkPad can achieve. In fact, this piece of keyboard had other mysteries when Xiaobian made X1-Yoga flipping. We will naturally understand it.

The D-side is still pretty much the same design as the X1 Carbon. This integrated D surface is made of ThinkPad's patented super-magnesium material, which allows the whole machine to be more lightweight and portable under the premise of ensuring strength.


Seemingly ordinary body design in fact hidden everywhere

Under such a body size, X1 Yoga is also equipped with a complete Hawkwing fan cooling system and uncompromising dual speakers. The former's high-efficiency operation is the reason that ThinkPad dares to put the U-series CPU into the body, while the latter provides better sound effects - whether it is listening at home or corporate meetings can feel more comfortable.


Interface and flip use: rich like ultrabooks

X1 Yoga also inherited the X1 family's "comprehensive and practical" principle on the interface. The denser and denser sides of the fuselage are all interfaces, and not to mention those compared with ordinary ultra-polar books for light and thin castration. Originally not much to let.

A total of three USB 3.0 ports (one of which also supports shutdown), a complete HDMI and a high-definition Mini DP are quite a few, and even have Onelink+ interface and TF card slot that can be almost unlimited expansion. Such a comprehensive and rich interface is also a reflection of ThinkPad's experience in manufacturing business books for many years.

Specifically, it has a dedicated square power connector, OneLink+ interface, a USB 3.0 interface that supports fast charging, and a Mini DP interface on the left side. The interface spacing is very reasonable, and there is no conflict even if it is inserted at the same time.

The right side of the fuselage due to the addition of the power button and the volume button, the overall structure should be more compact. The right side of the fuselage has a Lenovo dedicated square power connector, OneLink+ interface, a USB 3.0 interface that supports fast charging, and a Mini DP interface. This distribution of interface configurations is not only compact and practical, but also allows the two sides to maximize the connection of various devices without conflicting with each other.


There is also a Micro SD card slot behind

Under the C logo, there is also a pressure sensitive stylus with a charging contact. The 2048-level Active Pen is able to draw and write freely, and the 15-second quick charge function is also very useful.

Since it is called Yoga, this series, which is the ancestor of the flip, is naturally combined with the high-end series of X1. The notebook mode, tent mode, standing mode, and tablet mode are naturally not absent.

In the notebook mode, you can use X1 Yoga as if it were his eldest brother X1 Carbon, or you can click on the screen directly to increase work efficiency when you need to quickly click.

The tent mode is naturally the most suitable for watching videos and various materials. In this mode, X1 Yoga's keyboard will be automatically included in the internal, to the maximum extent to avoid the keyboard damage and false touch.

Standing mode is the most space-saving mode. Using the finger to interact with the computer in this mode can easily perform light work and simple entertainment on a space-ridden high-speed rail plane. The 14-inch 300Nit high-brightness screen also brings A more comfortable look and feel.

As for the tablet mode, this model may be relatively boring when Yoga was just released, but with the support of the excellent Windows 10 and stylus on the tablet, X1 Yoga converted into tablet mode instantly becomes a piece. The perfect electronic drawing board, smooth pressure pen with brilliant screen performance makes creation and painting more comfortable.


Screen performance: OLED should be widely used

Before talking about performance, let's talk about this counter-screen. According to the official introduction, this screen consists of OLEDs. With 97% Adobe RGB wide color gamut, 0.001ms refresh rate, dynamic picture quality is clearly unimaginable - and OLED features make it can have a good display in the sun, there is no traditional display backlight problems To the "non-uniform", "yin and yang screen" and so on.

Let's take a look at its suppliers and parameters - it looks like Lenovo's own custom-made screen model. The details of this LEN4140 can't be found on the screen library. The 14-inch, standard 16:9 ratio and 2560x1440 2K resolution itself shows its unusual.

In terms of interaction, it supports up to ten touch points. When the Active Pen is equipped with the built-in Active Pen, it has a 2048-level pressure and a high refresh rate. In actual use, no disconnection occurs. The pressure-sensitive delay condition appears to be fully qualified as a lightly-used digital tablet.


The black of OLED is really pure black, the screen contrast can be high


Bright colors


The screen details are also very good, although the glossy screen is easy to reflect, but it does not affect the content display at all - OLED really should be popularized in the ultrabook.

Others. . . The actual screen details that can be displayed in a photo are actually very few, and everyone has to experience it.


Performance Test: Impeccable Powerful Performance Foundation

In the performance testing session, Xiao Bian is not much talking and more maps - some of the data we see on the X1 Yoga is not a real effort, I would probably say only "this machine is really strong" Bale.


Configuration list at a glance, the current strongest low-voltage CPU I7-6500U leads 8GB of memory and Samsung's SSD, it seems to be flawless

14nm process masterpiece, under the 15W TDP can achieve such performance and up to 3.0Ghz Turbo frequency. Not only that, it also comes with an HD 520 Core Graphics


Now that the nuclear display, whether it is Intel or AMD, the performance is already enough to face a single side, to deal with some light-based online games and multi-screen projection, 4K screen and the like is not a problem

8GB memory did not catch up with the use of custom miniaturized DDR4, this may be the most unfortunate place for Xiaobian to use this X1 Yoga.


SSD from Samsung, but unfortunately still SATA channel

Even if it is only SATA channel, we must squeeze out the performance of this interface is the pursuit of the ultimate ThinkPad


Do random read and write, use much faster everyday


Overall performance test results, deserved top-level ultrabook


New Software System: Monitoring and Optimization

Xiao Bian likes the ThinkPad a large part of the reason is actually because of his perfect and easy to use supporting software system, in the era of no X master XX housekeeper XX assistant can get one-handed computer security and control, can not worry about the computer Maintain the problem and feel at ease with work.

In the latest generation of X1 Yoga, in order to adapt Windows 10 and new hardware configurations with many new features, the ThinkPad is equipped with new control software, which is more powerful and highly implanted, and more integrated. . At the same time, this set of software has also become the standard configuration of Lenovo's newly produced computers, laying a very good foundation for Lenovo's overall use of computers.


The new Lenovo Settings, for Win10


Lenovo took the absolute advantage of ThinkPad in integrated management software and made it a standardized solution.


Battery management and storage space management, the status of each hard disk is clear at a glance


As with many previous versions, while taking over the Windows system update, you can also ensure that your own home-driven updates


Even memory status can be well checked


Through the hardware scan, you can know in advance where the machine may be a problem and make an appointment for on-site maintenance


With it even without system optimization assistant, the official nature is the one who knows your computer the most



Free Office 2016 Suite: Boot to Office

Earlier this year, Xiao Bian was invited to participate in a Lenovo association activity with Microsoft. The purpose of this briefing was to explain the importance of "pre-installing software" in advance in the computer and explain that Lenovo will pre-install it on many computers. The copy of Office 2016 authorized by the machine itself, so that everyone can get the computer you can enjoy the pleasure of a full set of genuine office software. - No, this software is also available on X1 Yoga. Xiao Bian took the trouble to play, let everyone see how this pre-installation is actually achieved.


Microsoft X Intel X ThinkPad, the perfect combination of hardware and software creation


Just open an Office suite and see the activation page


The product key will be automatically filled in. It only needs to complete the exchange activation and can be used without restrictions.


The last step, registering a good email on the line


The suites available are Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, three essential evergreens. And follow-up can also carry out basic lifelong product update service


OneNote is also pre-installed


In OneNote, you can quickly record thoughts, ideas, or notes using pressure-sensitive pens, touch, or keyboard input, or you can create them directly.


Endurance, heat dissipation and power consumption: It's all said to be the top-level ultrabook

Finally, it is a routine heat life test. In order to highlight the concept of "energy consumption ratio", Xiao Bian moved out of the power tester and added additional power consumption tests. In fact, after X1 Carbon and X1 Tablet tests, X1 Yoga can have what level of heat Xiaobian already has a good idea.


Before the test, the office's room temperature is 30 degrees.


The test lasted for nearly an hour, naturally double

As with previous models using the Eagle wing fan, even the heat can be seen quickly out of the fuselage. And compared to the X1 Tablet, although the core heat used is more powerful, it will not affect the touch of the screen at all.


Bright screen standby power consumption only needs 5-6W, ThinkPad this power control is really good


Only run full CPU, power consumption of about 20W, OLED screen to save too much power than the traditional IPS screen


Full load but also 30W power consumption, although very thin, life can also have a certain guarantee


In the highest brightness, full power copy machine can also have 5 hours of life, the actual endurance performance should be able to reach X1 Carbon about 10 hours, 2K touch screen does not consume more power

Summary: A New Era That Flips Out

   For X1 Yoga, such a machine with so many innovations, function points and highlights, Xiao Bian wants to sum up what Riku thinks to be a bit futile, and for a long time can only use it. There is no such thing as a moderate and general discourse. As long as you are not surrounded by performance monsters and need a productivity tool that fits in your backpack, X1 Yoga is the most suitable choice for your money: brand, performance, functionality, feel, stability, etc. There are also killer-level technological innovations such as the wide-gamut 2K OLED screen. Going out to travel with it, is not only easy to use but also has a face.


It seems that I have forgotten to say this pressing fingerprint. It is exactly the same as that of X1 Carbon. Students who want to know can click to view the details.

   Said so much, in fact, Xiaobian is to think of Amway who is not bad people to buy it. Finally silently posted a purchase link: https://item.jd.com/2523982.html That's almost the end of this evaluation, goodbye the next time we have good things ~
