I was a bit let down that the Core i3 model does not include a backlit keyboard. There are no function keys, instead, there are action keys in their place which control various parts of the OS functionality. The shift, ctrl, and alt keys are all exaggerated and long, which can throw you off at first. The keyboard layout is a bit different from your standard Windows PC laptop keyboard. The keyboard and trackpad are also on the inside, and if you’ve never used a Chromebook before, this is something you’ll need to get used to. The bottom bezel is a bit bigger, but it honestly didn’t bother me much at all. Opening up the C630 you’ll find a nice spacious 15.6″ FHD display with bezels that match that of the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme. USB-C and USB-A 3.0 port along with the headphone jack Along the right side of the laptop is another USB-C port, MicroSD card slot, volume rocker, power button, and a lock slot.Īlong the back spine of the Lenovo Yoga C630 Chromebook, you’ll find more vents for cooling as well as the Yoga hinges that give this laptop the ability to be used as a tablet. There is also a long vent and two down-firing speakers located on the bottom.Īlong the left side is one of the two USB-C ports (both can be used to charge the laptop), a USB-A 3.0 port, and the headphone jack. The bottom of the C630 is equally generic with only 1 long and 2 short rubber feet to keep the laptop from slipping. There is some Yoga and Chromebook branding but it is very subtle and hardly noticeable at all. The top of the Lenovo Yoga C630 is fairly plain.

The all-aluminum body feels nice to the touch as well as durable. The build quality is outstanding, and the materials used for construction are very premium.

While this isn’t the slimmest laptop out there, it is fairly slim and certainly clean when it comes to design. Lenovo has chosen to model the C630 after their Yoga line of Windows PCs, and that is not a bad thing at all. But the times have changed and the Lenovo Yoga C630 Chromebook is a new breed of Chromebook. In the early years, Chromebook design was pretty chintzy with most of them feeling more like a child’s toy rather than a computer.
