Get to Know the Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro
As a lifestyle blogger, at any given time I am working on a multitude of projects. I am always busy. I am a social media consultant for several companies. I work with brands that I love to share a message about them. I Tweet, I use Instagram, I post on Facebook, I share on YouTube and Periscope. I am pretty active on social media.
My biggest project right now is our home. We recently purchased the house we have been living in for almost 9 years. It was built in 1968 and there is not much in it that has been updated. We are all about DIY and probably will be for the next several years. I envision that this home will definitely be a work in progress for many, many years to come.
My husband and I are coming up with plans. We are trying to figure out what we want to do first. Where in this house do we begin and how do we begin? The Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro is the most portable and easiest to use computer. I can carry it around with me constantly. I can make notes on it. I can take pictures and video a room. I can create spreadsheets to keep track of things like square footage, materials we want to use and ideas for each room. This thing comes with me everywhere.
What I especially love is that I can bend it around to use like a tablet or use the keyboard when I need to. I am connected to WIFI and I have been getting some serious use out of that HD webcam with a designer that we are working with for a consultation. I was able to walk around the house showing her the rooms we wanted to start with first while she made notes and got a copy of the video. It really is that easy to use the Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro.
