A few months ago, Lenovo launched a brilliant, forward-thinking device that could be a game changer in the market: the Lenovo Yoga Book, which is available in Android and Windows version. Let's compare both to see which is better.
In terms of processing, both versions of the Yoga Book have a cost-saving Quad-Core Intel Atom x5-Z8550 processor that clocks up-to 2.4 GHz. It has 4GB RAM with 64GB ROM for running applications smoothly. There is a 2-megabyte cache with a microSD card that can hold 128GB capacity.
The Lenovo Yoga Book is available in both Android Marshmallow and Windows 10 Home. The advanced book Android version is tagged at $500 as compared to Windows variant for $550.
As reported by PC Advisor, both versions run with a pen. This is more useful in Windows, where precision touch is sometimes required, than Android. The Android book comes with EMR pen while the Windows version goes with Any Pen technology.
Lenovo has preloaded apps in the Yoga Book. For Android, it has Collection, SHAREit, SYNCit, Lenovo's Note Saver, McAfee Security, TouchPal IME, and Evernote ArtRage with Google Apps also like Google Slides, Google Docs, and Google Sheets.
The second Lenovo Yoga Book with Windows OS comes with Microsoft Office Mobile that includes MS Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and OneNote. It also comes with Evernote ArtRage trial version.
As per some reviews, Lenovo Yoga Book has been tagged as an amalgamation of mobile-laptop use. Thought both the versions are not meant for heavy computing, it is more of a mobile gadget. It is clearly evident from its processor.
The Halo keyboard is frustrating for touch typists or anyone who needs to type a lengthy document. Additionally, the Android version of the Yoga Book lets you record notes with the screen off, something this Windows device can't do
The Yoga Book has a 10.1-inch full high-definition IPS 1920 x 1200 touch screen with a 8500 mAh battery that generates a 13 hour usability or up to 70 days of standby time.
The Android version seems to be handier for this mobile gadget and is said to be more useful though it is not using the latest Android version.
On the other hand, the Yoga Book Windows version has a lot of lags. It takes time to power up, applications froze not only once but several times.
Summing up, the Android version has a longer battery life and lower latency, while the Windows version has better Pen technology and a familiarity in PC computing. It seems that the Windows version of the Yoga Book is better than the Android version, but neither of these devices are ideal for daily use primary PCs unless you do more writing and sketching than anything else.
