Lenovo Yoga 13 Bootup Speedup, How to Power On

I had trouble initially finding the power button on the Yoga 13 in an unboxing video, well here's how to do it, the button is a little hard to find on the front edge. Once you know where to find the power button, check out how fast bootup and shutdown is thanks to the SSD.

omg bro. you saved us. my GF had an old laptop and we couldn't figure out how to power it up. The design of the power button on this laptop is absolutely dumb. Thank you much for this

I just unboxed mine yesterday; wow. Just wow. Amazing ultrabook! What you can't find on Lenovo's website or in any manual is that there is an empty slot for another SSD mSATA drive. Very cool. :)

Definitely one of the best selling points that isn't marketed at all. I'm so excited for mine to arrive, hopefully tomorrow. :)

Thank you! I spent way too long looking for that button :)

On newer L13s the power button is on the right hand edge of the chassis, roughly in line with the arrow keys.

I must say, your time counting is spot on

it takes about 6 secs to turn on from being totally off. And to the same happens when u turn it off. I have that computer and I love it. I did the SSD expansion with the extra SSD spot, now I have 340 GB free memory. And I also did the RAM upgrade to a 8GB which makes it run smother.

Thank you, you saved me the embarrassment of having to text my boss on his holiday and ask him how to turn his on! 😁

Thanks for saving my money. I couldn’t believe that my new laptop wasn’t working 😂

How fast is it when you close it and open it again? Like, the time it takes to boot up. Is it like the Sony Vaio T13 with the rapid wake or does it take a while?

im really interested in getting this laptop, but i can't find info on the tablet functionality of the yoga 13. Can i use the tablet mode to play games ex. temple run, need for speed, basically anything that uses tilting the screen to control the game?

[LaptopReviewsDotCom]

It has an accelerometer built in so I would assume so. However, I would highly recommend not buying this as a tablet to play games in tablet mode, it's 3.5lbs and you'd better go do some wrist strengthening if you plan on playing a game for more than five minutes, it's way too heavy for that. It's over twice the weight of an iPad for example.

Is this speed from completely shut off to open or sleep to open?

[LukeHarkness]

YES! Do this! That's closer than a freaking retina pro in terms of price, spec and what it's gonna be used for! :L

[iamfooled]

While you are counting a little faster. The actually boot up time is about 8.5 second if look at the time bar at the bottom

How much difference of battery life do you get when you upgraded to 8GB ram?

[seanwalker]

Yeah because I mean he may have been off by 10-20% and we would be left wondering, how long does it in fact take - 9 or 11 seconds?

[LaptopReviewsDotCom]

No, but I have the MacBook Air 13-inch, maybe that would be close enough?

[icypenguin]

can u do a lenovo yoga 13in. macbook pro retina 13 in.

My man, di dyou just count out loud? Classic ... good reviews man, keep up the good work - but put a timer on the screen or use a stopwatch.
