    Anyone experiencing a black line on the top of their screen (yoga 720)?

    Just seeing if this is a common problem... I've had this happen to me and a few others confirmed they experienced this as well. Hopefully we can get a thread going and lenovo will take notice.

    Yes I have the same issue! Lenovo Yoga 720...less than 2 weeks old. I have a black line across the top of my screen. Not sure if I should return it to BestBuy. The line on my display appears in Windows 10, in the BIOS screen, and even while the laptop is rebooting. I suspect a bad batch of panels in these machines. I love the laptop though so I am considering living with it since it is almost at the very top of screen, out of the way enough to tolerate.

    Lo peor es que estoy en Argentina y no hay servicio técnico ni garantía aquí. Descubrí que es un cristal. Tal vez sea un filtro, debajo del cristal. Girándolo alrededor y haciendo algunos golpes pequeños, el problema se resuelve y desaparece, hasta que vuelve. Mi temor es que puede agravar o desencadenar otros problemas

    Same problem with my Lenovo Yoga 720 with 4k screen, horizontal black line maybe 2mm from the top of the screen. Appeared after a little more than 3 weeks from purchase date. Pretty disappointing, hopefully Lenovo will correct this, or I'm never buying another again.

    Saludos desde Guatemala. Mismo problema con mi laptop Yoga 720. Confirmo tu opinión. Revisando la pantalla con un microscopio digital, se puede ver que se trata de algo suelto, debajo del cristal. En un principio se ocultaba en el frame (marco), al darle vuelta a la pantalla, después de varios meses de uso, ya no se mueve, supongo que se quedó fija, por causa del calor. Aunque no he tenido ningún otro problema relacionado, es bastante frustrante, hasta que te acostumbras.
