Very nice and light notebook. Super screen. Touchscreen works very well.
The only weak point is that the fan sometimes spins up even when nothing is being done. With various updates such as Windows, BIOS drivers it became much better. But still one star deduction because it was very annoying at the beginning.

At less than 1000 CHF this computer is in my opinion the best value for money available for this type of device. Nice screen with thin edges, nice backlit keyboard, a last generation i7 processor. And of course the touchscreen and the four positions in which you can use the computer that differentiates it from many other devices in this price and specification range.
In the weak points: the fan can be noisy occasionally, it could be a bit lighter, and it's a pity that it doesn't come with an optional larger SSD. The screen colours could be a bit purer (e.g. whiter white rather than a bit towards the greys). And the battery doesn't seem to last as long as in the online tests I've read. But it's still very good.
All in all an excellent choice that I am very happy with for the price I paid, but with one big downside: I had to order the computer three times before I got one without defects. The first two had been incorrectly mounted or damaged at the time of manufacture and the hinge was not symmetrical and did not work properly, so I had to ask for a replacement. Digitec customer service was excellent for this, no problem.

Good all-rounder with performance for office, development, light gaming in 720p etc.
The device makes a high-quality impression and is nicely finished. The keyboard is very pleasant in size and offers enough travel and nice lighting. The screen is top (if you like glossy), 1080p is quite enough.
The sound is relatively thin but comparable on most devices of this size. Only the 12" MacBook has good sound.
On the fan issue: in normal office use, the device is quiet. When spiking, it comes up immediately, but it's not really annoying. I think Lenovo is consciously liberal with the fan because it also has a GeForce in it. But it never really gets hot. But that's a matter of taste.
