| Bottom line | The IdeaPad Y480 gets you Lenovo's excellent construction quality and ergonomic design without having a "business" laptop, but some more configuration flexibility would be appreciated. | The Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 is a convertible touch-screen laptop/tablet that most importantly doesn't compromise the traditional laptop experience. | You can get similar components to our Core i7 Dell XPS 15 configuration for less, but the rock-solid design makes this feel like a premium machine. | The newly redesigned MacBook Pro with Retina Display combines an amazing screen with just enough of the
MacBook Air design to feel like a new animal, and to take its place as the best of the current MacBook breed. |
