A laptop, also known as a notebook, is a portable computer. When you are looking for the right laptop, it is important to know where you are going to work with it. Do you want to use it on the road? Choose a model with a special energy-saving 'mobile' processor, a good battery and a reasonably small display. This will allow you to work longer with the same battery and saves you the trouble of carrying around a large display that consumes a lot of precious battery power. Or will you be using you laptop mainly in places where you will have access to a power outlet? Then choose a desktop processor (more processing power for less money) and an ordinary battery. This will save you a lot of money, which you could then spend on a bigger screen. You'll work faster because you can view more information at once and it's great for multimedia!

Say hello to the Lenovo Yoga 11S, the smaller and more portable version of the Yoga 13 and the follow-up to the original Windows RT Yoga 11. It fits right into the family, being a double-jointed Ultrabook that can fold up into multiple positions. Is th...
Good The Yoga 11S shares the same solid build quality as its bigger brother. The keyboard is nice and firm, it has thin chassis lines, and it comes in two colours, making it an attractive Ultrabook. (Ours was bright orange, but a more understated silver-grey version is also available.) We've seen it before in the rest of the Yoga family, but the transforming element is still impressive. Bored of using...
Bad While Lenovo has crammed in faster components, it does mean that the 11S gets quite hot. It's not really a problem when you're using it as a tablet, or if you've got it propped up on a desk, but use it as a laptop and your lap could get uncomfortable pretty quickly. Battery life is also a concern - the Yoga 11S's third-generation processor doesn't have the same energy-saving smarts as Intel's fou...
Bottom line Lenovo has kept the same fun transforming form factor as its original 11-inch wunderkind, but has pumped up the processing power, making the 11S an attractive purchase and a better Windows 8 hybrid than Microsoft's own Surface Pro. It's not cheap, star...
