Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro, €789

ronanc1000

Today only AFAIK, you can get the lenovo yoga pro 3 in silver for 789 including cash back, offer ends today. Looks a serious deal, you pay 1039 up front from an already €260 discount code, then you apply for cashoback and it says this model is €250 cash back making the laptop €789 in total. Seem a great deal.

What is the processor like in these? Spec looks good otherwise, would it be suitable as a main laptop as opposed to a HP EliteBook or Dell XPS etc?

I think, so. Seems a bargain for a €1500 ultrabook , you pay just over 1000 and then about a month later you get 250 in cashback. Intel core M. 8gb of Ram. 256gb storage. Incredibly thin too. The deal if off today though, so if you buy today you qualify of cash back making it 789 after two months.

I'm not inferring this is not a bargain or anything.

Here it is. Think you apply, and after 30 days you get 250 back, but it says today is the last day.

the seller overcharges you, then invests 'your' money in Russian military & Nigerian bonds, makes extortionate amounts interest with it & then refunds you your own money as a gift,

& a large percentage of people never claim or get refunded at all, or they get the cash card and never use then

Its very poor. Not a great negative to have on an ultra book. Better options out there, albeit not as cheap as this. I bought an Asus UX305 and love it, no touchscreen but I don't need one.
