Is either one of these lines far superior to the other? I could swear this was discussed recently, but the site search is not working and I have tried all my magic search term combinations with the site: operator in web search engines, and have not turned up what I'm looking for.
I just received this e-mail from a blind client, and while I generally like Lenovo products, I'm not quite sure how to guide him here:
I can't seem to get a real straight answer out of Lenovo regarding the differences between their Yoga and Ideapad laptops. One thing the Yoga has a metal lid and bottom and the bottom of the ideapad is plastic. They don't seem to want to talk about the internal differences. I have always bought a more premium laptop thus the Envy line [Note: which he's returning, as they've removed the right side CTRL key, which screen reader users use constantly, and put a fingerprint scanner in its place].
The one Ideapad flex 5I I have a quote on is a 12th Gen I7, 8 Gigs of faster Ram and a 512 Gig ssd selling for $745 directly from Lenovo. A similar Yoga 7I has a 11th Gen I7 8 Gigs of slower Ram and 512 Gig of ssd for $769. One issue I see is that Ideapad has a much better collection of ports.
Opinions welcomed.
