Flex 2 looks like it has better spec. I'm assuming they both have a similar GPU, probably just Intel Integrated HD. The Flex says "500 GB SSHD, 5400 rpm" I don't think that's right. More likely 500GB 5400RPM + 8GB SSD like the other one. They call it a Hybrid drive but it's just a normal laptop HD with a separate 8GB bolted onto the MOBO.

Out of the 2 I'd go for the Flex 2 just because of the i5.

She went for the Yoga in the end, mainly because the Flex is ugly and fat [emoji38]

JL did have a Yoga 2 Pro for the same price as that Flex (i7, 8Gb, 3200x1800 screen and 128gb SSD) but she decided she didn't think it was wise to spend the extra. Good decision given we're refurbishing our house and haven't bought any living stuff yet.

We can upgrade the ram and hdd in the yoga if needed anyway
