Quick impressions of the Yoga 2

+Loving the 1920x1200 resolution.

+The Atom Z3745 holds up well. The tablet feels fast and responsive.

+Dat battery life! My Toshiba Encore 2 needed daily charges. I can get almost two days on the Yoga.

+Built in kickstand is useful and sturdy.

+Windows 8.1 feels better on tablets.

+Front facing speakers sound decent.

+Surprisingly nice build quality. It feels really good in the hands.

+Metro IE > Edge

+AnyPen tech works EXACTLY as advertised. I can use my ink pen as a stylus.

-Less comfortable to hold than reviewers advertised.

-Color reproduction could be better. Colors don't "pop."

-No palm rejection when using stylus.

-MicroUSB

-Can't get rid of that damn Windows 10 upgrade notification. I removed it from the icon tray but it won't stop showing up in Windows Update.
