Lenovo Yoga Deals & Offers

Ram is 45 pounds and ssd 20-30 pounds.

the yoga 510 is very decent in terms of build quality, the CPU however is horrible, be advised.

Around £100 from Crucial for 8GB RAM & 250GB SSD. You could shave that a fair bit with a smaller SSD or lesser brand. Mine shipped with a 120GB SSD & as long as you're sensible, that's plenty. MyMemory have Integral 120GB SSDs for £19 or 240GB for £28.

Thanks, how much would the 8 stick cost? - Are we looking at £100+ to make this 8gb plus a (small) ssd?

Yes subject to the penny pinching production, which means there's only one slot. So you have to buy 8GB instead of 4 & then find the 4GB is virtually worthless because no one wants it.

"Currys deal over". That's true, so the OP should expire their Deal. :-)

Currys deal over but there are some Very Good from amazon warehouse for 213

I have a Lenovo 2 - and they have a fault that means they sometimes refuse to switch on. Is that also a problem with this model?

Maybe you could advise me how to update my lenovo 13.3 yoga tablet which is stuck on android 5.1. It's a 2015 model

No updates meaning waste of money in the short run

Cold

I like mine... had it for a while paid 349£ but lenovo has let the tablet down by not issuing any software updates for it!!! Well I haven't had any.... Still on 6.0.1

Don't think iPads have a projector built in?

Well that was what I was comparing my experience against. Especially at the same price and the specs.

I can only assume that people who buy these haven't heard of iPads

I have the earlier 10" yoga tablet which has been very good but now won't run many modern apps as Lenovo don't support it with updates. As I understand it their support for updates is extremely limited altogether (their website still talks of 4.2 as the latest android system....) I'm after a new tablet and this is an excellent price but because of this policy I'm reluctantly going to pass on this and chose a different manufacturer.

I bought a Huawei, then realised they don't allow SD cards to used as internal storage for apps. They actively removed the functionality from their operating system.

I like the screen & sound on my TAB3 Plus ... the tablet's format is excellent for table & kitchen top usages. But I find it's a bit heavy for sofa surfing.

Have the Yoga 2, 2gb 32gb. The stand design is excellent which just makes it more versitile. Has been a great device for travel & media, still going strong after a few years use. Shame the android version on it is so dated.

Good battery life and a nice video playback device. But not the most robust tablet, the earlier versions were infinitely better in terms of build quality.

Country code is UK and not used the code previously. Will try on another tablet

Works for me. Have you already used it on something else?

Most common reason is you set your region to outside of the UK before and forgot to change it back

PRESENTS This code is not valid. Any ideas why?

Don't believe a word of it - you clearly get notifications on all laptop deals as you're always commenting on them (like the CCL deal just posted)

Thank you guys! Went to buy this in currys yesterday but hung back until I could check HUKD and you didn’t let me down!

D'Oh!

At the time you posted this deal, eBay had a 15% off code (£50 max discount) which was eligible on this item. It has sadly now expired.

Actually I did buy it from the eBay store - and it was still £399. How did you get it quoted as £349? Debated whether to send it back in favour of that Acer Spin 5 but the battery life on the AMD Lenovo is quoted as 8 hours whilst it's only 6 on the Intel Acer.

A Ryzen 5 would be better for games, the price might come back down again near Christmas. https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lenovo-ideapad-330s-156-amd-ryzen-5-laptop-256-gb-ssd-grey-479-currys-3111227

Wasn't this the same Lenovo 'package' (Internet Security and all), that was around about the £329.99 price tag? (all in?), on the Lenovo website though?. Posted on here x-Week's back ... The OP's Deal is good still, as I paid more for a bit less, for the same Lenovo YOGA 510 more than 1 Year ago. It can be slow at time's (but mine was only 4GB RAM though (I'm sure the 8GB RAM in the OP's one would help it out heaps regardless?. X:-)

I think you'll find that I already have! No brainer, even for me. :D

Yeah thanks for that, missed out on it because I couldn't commit! Been a poor selection this year, always a huge compromise to be made unless you go a third over budget. Think they should rename them Bleak Friday and Blue Monday! Still tempted by this,though (y)

more recently there was the Acer Swift - better made than the spin but with no touch screen or 360' hinge

Ordered! Been looking out for this at a discounted price to read PDFs on. Lightweight for carrying around.

Internal storage: 64GBMini SD card slot supports up to 128GB (keep your content on the slower SD card and leave the quicker internal storage for the OS and apps).

It's not a Phone?. So Android 6.0 - 7.0 on this (for the here and now anyway), is more than sufficient, I'd have thought?. :-) As for your 10.1 inch screen comment, again, it's an Android Device, so what do you expect?. In the UK at least, Android Tablet's rarely traditionally break the 10.6 inch ratio ... If you want more than that for an Android Tablet (eg. 11.1 inches, and/or 11.6+ inches, etc?), then my best bet for you is to go wayyyyyy over to either China, and/or to the 1 of the numerous Chinese site's that also ship to hear too like? (eg. GearBest, BangGood, FocalPoint, LightInTheBox, etc etc etc?). Yep, lol. ;-)

It seems Lenovo could have done more with this idea. There's not really a current refresh of this machine, so have they abandoned the idea? I know foldable screens are just on the horizon, so it could be a redundant purchase unless you fully use the drawing to digital conversion feature. If you need a portable digital etch-a-sketch - I guess this is the machine for you. It's a funky idea, but will you use it? Could be useful for illustrations, an architect drawing out concepts, a fashion student. It's effectively a digital Carbon Copy sheet. Would you want to type on that thing for more than 10 minutes. Prod prod prod - nah, can't see that happening. Otherwise it's £300 for a tablet to watch films on. Battery life's good. The fact that QVC are selling it, could be that there's mountains of stock that they can't get rid of, and they're trying to sell to less tech aware customers.

...... and??...

Nice laptop but very expensive

Yes I'm sure you're right, I must have looked at the 15" inch upgradeable ram options by mistake

I read that review before buying and it's referring to a different model. I'm hoping I've got an earlier version with a free slot as the salesman was pushing this to another customer but hey it's currys... Ahem... Oh well gotta keep looking I guess... I'll update when I can check the exact model number. I suspect you're right.

a very warm welcome newbie.heat added :)

Thanks Redflash, for updating us :)

Just an FYI the RAM is soldered on the Yoga 730, if that is what you are meaning, it's the Yoga 530 that it's upgradable, you can see inside the 730 here https://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-Yoga-730-13IKB-i7-8550U-4K-Convertible-Review.320152.0.html only the SSD and WiFi card are upgradable.

My daughter is looking for a lightweight laptop with plenty of storage/ memory she is a writer but is also ill so needs it to be comfortable and easy to handle. Any suggestions please?

I'd have been very tempted by that as a Linux machine, but 4GB of soldered RAM is a bit of a bummer. Much rather have 8 these days

Earlier you could upgrade laptop CPUs . Those were the days . Now due to thin and light , you cannot upgrade as all soldered even ram . But intel blocked CPUs in firmware as well with Intel Management Engine.

Fair enough.

I hear, hehehehe. 13.3 inch screens, 12 inch screens, and ... :-) These are all Tablet territories man?, lol. :-D Don't people like things with 'MEAT' in them anymore? - 15 inch, 15.6 inch, 17 inch+?, hahahahahaha. ;-)

It's an HD screen, so even if it's not FHD, who at all will ever notice?. Considering that it's only a 14 Inch screen anyway ...

Thanx, much appreciated. :-D

Just don't want to see you buy something you'll regret later (y)

Hehehehehehe, I hear, fair enough, lol, thanx. :-D

E-series was the low-cost option, yes, but I'd still take a Celeron or Atom over an AMD E-series, any day!

Nah didn't bother. Can't really justify 500 quid at the moment!! :(

Any luck lol

Possibly. Not ended yet lol. Watching but it is refurbished. 3 mins.

That’s a bargain

Yeah... Curry's and they spec sheets are not to be trusted... It was this one https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/362450844619 I'm sure there will be more deals. There were lots of others at curry's but didn't have time to look.

Ordered. My other half has wanted a 2 in 1 for a couple of weeks and these are the best on the market. She almost bought an envy x360 15.6 for the same price, these are infinitely better. This is the lowest price its ever been. Don't forget TCB for another 5% cashback.

Do you have to be a business to buy from PC world business? Does buying from PC world business give the same rights for normal customers?

Hm it should be! https://www.pcworldbusiness.co.uk/catalogue/item/N228048W?

Link doesn’t work

Very fast light and powerful laptop !

Don't mean to necro an old thread, but how have you been getting on with your 530? Have you ran any gaming tests on it? Kind of interested to see how well something like Fortnite would run

In fact I don’t know if I am so unlucky or what Bought two laptops off John Lewis clearance section, took them home the Lenovo 900 series screen was flickering like mad, clearly faulty they apologised, the dell 2 in 1 wouldn’t even switch on. They were sorry!!! Again bought two Lenovo’s from curry’s brand new on eBay Friday with the 10% discount voucher, neither turned up, they said stocking error and refunded me the money

Your welcome, fair enough ...

Thanks but to be fair I am finding every laptop has now issues or bad reviews :(

Maybe this might help alleviate that pain of yours a little: https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/34483735
