Lenovo Yoga Book C930 Review | Trusted Reviews

A welcome upgrade to the original Yoga Book

A clear step forward on the first Yoga Book ; Innovative design ; e-Ink display screams potential

Buggy software ; Very expensive for what you get ; Still feels like a prototype

The Yoga Book C930 is a clear step forward on the first-generation model. It features better specifications and a nifty new e-Ink keyboard/secondary display that has oodles of potential. But sadly software bugs and a ridiculously high asking price stop...

Hands on: Lenovo Yoga Book C930 review

A huge leap forward in Lenovo's grand experiment

Bigger, sharper displays ; New E Ink bottom display ; Fingerprint reader ; More power and ports

Much more expensive ; Low on RAM

The new Lenovo Yoga Book C930 addresses practically every bugbear that we had with the original model, but does so at a vastly higher price point than before. Regardless, color us plenty excited to fully test this refreshing, new device.

Lenovo Yoga Book C930 review: 3-in-1, master of none

The second-generation Yoga Book has a secondary E Ink display, making it a truly multipurpose device, but what's the point?

Versatile secondary display ; Better than the last Yoga Book

Overpriced ; Shortage of ports ; Laggy E Ink keyboard

Despite its many shortcomings, there’s no denying the Lenovo Yoga Book C930 is unique. It’s just about the most portable Windows laptop you can buy and the E Ink Mobius display makes it incredibly versatile. The lack of a physical keyboard is hard to...

Lenovo Yoga Book C930 laptop review

(Rating Hidden)

Lenovo has updated its Yoga Book and given it an e-ink panel, a bump in specs and a significant bump in price. Is it worth the top-of-the-range price or is it an expensive toy? Find out in our first look review

Lenovo Yoga Book C390 Review: A New (E Ink) Page for 2-in-1s

Lenovo's Yoga Book C930 ($999/€999) furthers the 2-in-1 trend with a new twist: a virtual E Ink keyboard and touchpad that also converts into a reader and notepad. With innovative features like the ability to bring screenshots into the E Ink notepad...

The Lenovo Yoga Book C930 is a stylish and portable dual-screen convertible with a one-of-a-kind E Ink keyboard, touchpad, reader and notepad. Its versatility makes it a great travel device, but an old processor and misbehaving touchpad hold it back.

Lenovo Yoga Book C930 Review: An expensive experiment

The Yoga Book C930 is an engineering marvel, and swapping its keys for an e-ink display is groundbreaking. But the addition of a drawing pad and (limited) e-reader functionality don't necessarily make up for a weaker typing experience. If you can touch...

Solid build quality ; Good battery life ; Keyboard is fine for short bursts of typing ; Flexibility for drawing and e-reading is good for trips

Sluggish performance ; Bezel-heavy design showing its age in 2018 ; Touchscreen keyboard isn't great for hammering out long documents

It's a truth universally acknowledged that companies will charge inflated prices for new technology. Sometimes it's for prestige, and sometimes it's just to make back all that R&D cash. That doesn't mean I can't rail against the industry expecting...

Expert review by : Dan Ackerman (cnet.com)

The half-E Ink Lenovo Yoga Book C930 may be the most unusual laptop of the year

With one standard display and a second E Ink one with an on-screen keyboard, this slim folding 2-in-1 takes a little getting used to.

The revamped Yoga Book improves on the original version, with a better typing experience and more powerful hardware. The small size is great for travelling.

Using an E Ink keyboard and touchpad full time is never going to be as good as the real thing. The E Ink second screen bizarrely can't read Kindle e-books. Battery life is short for a highly portable laptop.

The Yoga Book C930 is an adventurous, risk-taking laptop that skirts the conventional thinking on portable computers. The result is interesting, sometimes fun, but often frustrating.

Lenovo Yoga Book C930 review: two screens and lots of compromises

Easy to love, hard to live with.

Thin and light ; Fast enough processor ; Full Windows 10 ; USB-C

E Ink screen software is slow and buggy ; Not comfortable for long typing sessions ; No headphone jack ; Too expensive

This new 2-in-1 Windows 10 gadget has two screens, but can a versatile E Ink screen really replace your keyboard? Dieter Bohn reviews this fascinating and frustrating new device.

Lenovo Yoga Book C930

The Lenovo Yoga Book C930 offers a host of innovations in an ultrathin chassis, but it's hamstrung by older components.

Incredibly thin, light and versatile design; Precision Pen delivers excellent writing experience; Vibrant display

Expensive; Subpar battery life; Not for touch typists

Lenovo Yoga Book C930 Review

The touch activated dual-display Yoga Book C930 is a “one a kind” computing device that cannot be categorized under any existing market segment...

High-end build quality, beautifully designed ; Ultra-thin and ultra-compact clamshell chassis, excellent for traveling ; Great Full Windows 10 performance for such a tiny clamshell form factor ; Two USB-C ports with charging ; Fantastic handwriting and...

Slow charging (2 hours) ; No audio jack ; More RAM would be better ; Keyboard is fine for short burst of typing, not great for long sessions ; Lack of popular ebook formats (only PDF support for now, no Mobi and EPUB support)
