What customers don't like about Lenovo IdeaPad Miix 700 80QL0004US (4GB + 64GB)

  • Keyboard can be unreliable, with reports of missed key presses and occasional glitches
  • Battery life is generally shorter than competitors, typically lasting between 5 to 7 hours in real-world use
  • Keyboard lacks backlighting, which can be a drawback for low-light use
  • Limited port selection; one of the two USB ports doubles as the charging port

  • Integrated speakers are relatively quiet and can sound tinny at high volumes

Verdict

The Lenovo IdeaPad Miix 700 (80QL0004US) is a 12.2-inch 2-in-1 Windows tablet powered by an Intel Core m5-6Y54 processor, 4GB of LPDDR3 RAM, and a 64GB SSD. It features a high-resolution 2160 x 1440 IPS multi-touch display and a signature watchband-style hinge that allows for a smooth, adjustable kickstand. Main pros include its fanless, silent design, the inclusion of a detachable folio keyboard and active stylus in the box, and a lightweight build of approximately 780g. However, reported cons include lackluster battery life of around 6 hours under real-world usage, a non-backlit keyboard that can feel unstable when angled, and limited multitasking performance due to the 4GB RAM and Core m chip.
