Memory: 8 GB of RAM

Benefits
– It may not have a big flashy Intel Core i7 processor but don’t think that the i5 isn’t capable of providing some great performance. It isn’t a very big step down from its higher end sibling and as an extra bonus is a bit more affordable
– The 360 degree hinge design is easily the biggest draw for this laptop giving you the option of using it in laptop,tablet,tent and stand modes which gives you great flexibility
– This laptop is very light at just 2.29 pounds making it a great option for those on the go
– 8 hours of battery life will keep most users going for a full day or close to it
– It comes with a 30 day free trial of Microsoft Office 365 so you get a chance to try it out before deciding if you want to buy
Downsides
– The SSD drive is fast but has very limited storage space of only 128 GB
– You will only find one single USB 3.0 port
– HDMI is available but is a micro connection instead of the regular full sized connection type
– Includes just a basic graphics card so high end gaming will not be possible on this model
– The smaller 11.6 inch screen is great for mobility but those who are used to a larger display may find the step down in size difficult to get used to
Verdict
The Lenovo Yoga 710 80V6000PUS is a very compact model which for some is great especially when on the go but others who prefer a more full sized device might be disappointed with the smaller display.
