Lenovo Yoga 520 Review Part 3 – Laggy YouTube Video Playback Solved

https://youtu.be/GkzuCFTtHps

YouTube playback may seem frustratingly laggy at first, but there is nothing to worry about. It’s an i7 2-in-1 convertible laptop.

I was about to give up reviewing the Lenovo Yoga 520 until I found out why this laptop cannot playback YouTube videos smoothly.

I checked the internet speed, raised the power plan to high performance and played the same video on my iPhone.

Then I noticed how it was hunting and switching between the two WiFi points at home.

After turning off the auto connection, everything is back to normal. YouTube videos played smoothly.

So, the testing of my Lenovo Yoga 520 continues.

Watch my previous test in Part 2.

What would you like me to test next?

Please comment.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.
