    Between the two, how do the following compare?

    Screen
    Speakers
    Sound card/headphone out
    Keyboard
    Durability
    Webcam
    Speed (with the same specs)

    Any significant negative aspects for either one? I've heard the Yoga 2 13" gets loud under moderate and high load due to the fan. Is the same true for the T440s?

    Thanks

    You know when you ask these sorts of questions you are relying on other person's opinions, which may be totally different from yours. So proceed with caution.

    First step is to research the models yourself. Go to Lenovo's website and look them up. Secondly, take a look at them in store or at least on Youtube. Plus, maybe the better comparison would be a Thinkpad Yoga vs Yoga 2, or a Thinkpad Yoga vs a T440s. Or even a Yoga 2 vs a X240.

    I believe Best Buy has the Yoga 2 so maybe you can actually test that yourself, if only for a brief moment doing minor tasks.

    I won't be able to try out the T440s where I live. I'll be ordering online from Amazon US.

    By the way, how big of a difference in performance and battery life is there between the i7-4600U and the i7-4600M?
