The Yoga 900 is my first Lenovo PC. I had recently owned the HP Spectre x360 i7 Skylake, QHD in Ash Siver. It is truly a beautiful machine, most of all in Ash Silver. I ended up returning it and going with the Yoga 900.

I'm on my second Yoga 900 as well.  Both of mine have had loose trackpads, problems with trackpad firmware, and the current one also has a dead pixel.

 

Come on Lenovo, this is suppose to be a premium product.

Can either of you please let me know if the lid when closed, on the right side, is not flush/even? This is my only real issue with this 3rd unit. Again, the lid on my right side when closed, sticks out a bit further than the bottom right side.

However it is ever so slightly off. Just frustrating a $1,500 after tax, premium laptop has QC issues. Again I love the form factor and Lenovo nailed it!

However if it means I wont have to go back and forth to Best Buy and waste gas it very well might be worth doing so.

<![CDATA[ Re: Yoga 900 Quality Control Questions ]]> https://forums.lenovo.com/topic/findpost/1516/2204249/2204333 Yeah the Spin has half the RAM and half the SSD. Then the 15.6 ATIV weighs in at almost twice as much as the YOga 900 and still only half the RAM and SSD. I guess I'll try the Yoga one more time.
