Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro: Is it worth it?

The verdicts about Lenovo's newest Yoga 3 Pro is slowly pouring in, after more users managed to get their hands on the latest UltraBook that celebrity Ashton Kutcher helped design. 

Most gadget analysts love the fact that this 13.3-inch device has a full 360-degree hinge that allows it to be fixed at four different modes for different functions. It can be used as a regular laptop, a tablet, as well as a screen for watching videos. Users can simply set it according to what seems to be comfortable for them using the innovative watchband-inspired hinge.

Thinner and lighter dimensions 

Compared to its predecessor, the Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro is 15 percent lighter and 17 percent thinner. It only has a 13 x 9 x 0.5 inch dimensions, and only weighs 2.62 pounds. Being less than an inch thick, the company claims that the Yoga Pro 3 is the thinnest convertible notebook ever released. 

Screen 

Just like the Yoga 2 Pro, the new tablet/notebook hybrid also comes with a 13-inch QHD screen display that has a 3200 x 1800 resolution. If it will be compared to other laptop brands in the market, such as the 13-inch MacBook Air, the Yoga Pro 3 has a crisper display with its 216 ppi pixel density compared to MacBook's 127 pixels per inch. 

Processor 

Most gadget reviewers claim that they were impressed with the Yoga 3 Pro's Core M 5Y70 by Intel. It reportedly lessens the device's power consumption. It also features 8 GB RAM and a 256 GB flash hard drive, which can work well for basic computing functions like word processing and web browsing. 

Compared to Yoga 2 Pro 

Those who had experienced using the new Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro are claiming that this device is a cool upgrade from its predecessor. All the new features, size and weight convinced them that getting this laptop/notebook/tablet hybrid is worth the $1,299 price tag.
