Case - Stable aluminum case
Overall, we already know the Yoga Pro 7 14's case from the predecessor models and only few changes have been made. Now, for example, the Yoga writing has moved from the lid to the bottom right corner of the palm rest. In comparison to other Lenovo laptops, the camera hump is less pronounced, while the bottom display frame is pretty wide. The device looks super sleek in gray and can be used in a professional environment without standing out. Fingerprint marks aren't a big issue on this device.
In terms of quality, we don't have much to complain about—its build quality is fine and the aluminum case's stability is good. The middle area of the keyboard can be pressed in ever so slightly, while twisting attempts are resisted by the laptop. The display lid itself is pretty stable and the hinges have been adjusted well, as they only wobble slightly. Its maximum opening angle is almost 180 degrees.
The Yoga Pro 7 is one of the largest laptops within our comparison field, although the differences aren't that big. Lenovo has specified a build height of 1.6 cm, but this is just for the front area of the device. At the back (without the rubber feet included), we measured 1.8 cm, making it one of the thickest models of the present devices. It weighs just over 1.5 kg, with its 100-watt power supply adding an additional 446 grams onto the scales.
Connectivity - The AMD Yoga with USB 4.0
Lenovo has only given its Yoga Pro 7 one modern USB 4.0 port, while the other USB-C connection complies with the 3.2 Gen 2 standard. However, as this one will likely only be used to charge the device, this limitation shouldn't be too big a deal in practice. There is a regular USB-A port on the right, which is still handy during everyday use. We would have liked to see another USB-C port which would enable the laptop to be charged from both sides.
Communication
The WLAN module is made by MediaTek (MT9722) and supports the Wi-Fi 6E standard as well as Bluetooth 5.3. In combination with our reference router from Asus, its transfer rates were high and stable. We never encountered any signal quality issues during our test.

Webcam
Lenovo has installed a regular 1080p webcam (electronic shutter) including an IR sensor for image recognition via Windows Hello. Its picture quality is only average. Although the new AMD processor features a powerful NPU, the laptop doesn't yet support all Copilot+ functions and as of yet, this unfortunately also includes Studio Effects for the webcam. Thankfully, AMD and Microsoft have already announced that an update is to come during the course of the year.

Maintenance
The bottom case cover is secured by Torx screws (T5) and can be removed easily. On the inside, you can access the compact M.2 2242 SSD, WLAN module, fans as well as the screwed-in battery. The RAM, on the other hand, is soldered on and can't be upgraded.
Sustainability
The packaging of the Yoga Pro 7 14 is made entirely from recyclable materials and Lenovo claims a CO2 offset of 0.5 tons. The device also meets both the Energy Star 8.0 and EPEAT Gold standards.
Input devices - 1.5-mm key travel
The Yoga Pro 7 14's keyboard has a key travel of 1.5 mm and feels generally comfortable to type on. The key sounds are a little loud, however—especially on larger keys such as enter or the space bar. There is also a Copilot key, but you can argue about how useful this is. Apart from this, its layout is clear, but the verticle arrow keys are a little on the narrow side. The keyboard features two-level backlighting which can be adjusted automatically to ambient lighting conditions.
The clickpad, which measures 13.5 x 8 cm in size, feels nice and smooth and we noted no issues during use. The pad can also be clicked mechanically at the bottom, but this is met with very loud and cheap-sounding noises.
Display - 120-Hz OLED
The new Yoga Pro 714 G9 comes exclusively with a 14.5-inch OLED panel (3,072 x 1,920, 16:10). Subjectively, its picture quality is excellent, as even light surfaces don't appear grainy and animations benefit from its raised refresh rate (120 Hz). Its response times are super fast and we noted no backlight bleeding whatsoever. However, neither its brightness nor its color temperature can be adjusted automatically. Furthermore, we measured PWM flickering at 240 Hz across all brightness levels.
In SDR operation, the screen's maximum brightness is just over 400 cd/m², which is a decent result. Together with its low black value, it delivers an excellent contrast ratio which is typical for OLED panels. In HDR operation, we noted a maximum of 604 cd/m² when depicting small image excerpts and around 500 cd/m² when showing an almost completely white screen.

* ... smaller is better
We additionally analyzed the panel using the professional CalMAN software (X-Rite i1 Pro 2). Lenovo offers a variety of profiles, with Native being set as standard. It already delivers a good depiction, however, colors look a little oversaturated, leading to them appearing a bit more vivid. If you want things as accruate as possible, then you should use the profile Display P3, where all color deviations lie beneath the important limit of 3. We couldn't further improve the screen's depiction using our own calibration.
There is additionally a super accurate AdobeRGB profile, but the large color space isn't completely covered, whereas the sRGB and P3 spaces are. Moreover, photographers can benefit from profiles for sRGB/Rec709.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
Screen flickering / PWM detected | 240 Hz Amplitude: 56 % | ≤ 100 % brightness setting | |
The display backlight flickers at 240 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 100 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 240 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8327 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. |
Performance - AMD Zen 5 with 32 GB RAM
The Yoga Pro 7 14 G9 AMD is currently only available with the Ryzen AI 9 365, the Radeon 880M and 32 GB RAM (LPDDR5x-7500, not upgradeable). Dedicated graphics cards (RTX 4050 Laptop) are reserved for the Intel version of the Yoga Pro 7. The new AMD CPU offers a powerful NPU with a performance of 50 TOPS, which means the device meets the requirements for Microsoft's Copilot+ designation, but not all functions are currently supported. This should change with an update by the end of the year.
Testing conditions
Lenovo allows users three energy profiles to choose from (battery-saving mode, auto, performance), which can be switched between either via the pre-installed Vantage app or the Fn+Q key combination. We have summarized the data of the individual profiles in the following table. For our test, we used the auto profile as standard, where the laptop's performance is very good, but its fans can also get very loud. Especially for simple everyday tasks, you can also use the battery-saving mode without hesitation, where you can hardly hear the fans. We would have liked a slightly wider spread, as the two profiles auto and performance are very close to each other.
Energy profile | CPU TDP | CB R23 Multi | Time Spy Graphics | max. fan noise emissions |
---|---|---|---|---|
Battery-saving mode | 32 -> 25 watts | 13,698 points | 3,155 points | 30.3 dB(A) |
Auto | 60 -> 54 watts | 18,748 points | 3,423 points | 44.6 dB(A) |
Performance | 70 -> 60 watts | 19,091 points | 3,458 points | 47.7 dB(A) |
Processor - Ryzen AI 9 365
The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 features a total of 10 CPU cores (4x Zen 5 + 6x Zen 5c) and therefore two 5c cores fewer than the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. Further technical details about the processor are available here. Laptop manufacturers can actually operate the Zen 5 processor in the range of 28-54 watts, but inside the Yoga Pro 7, it uses a maximum of up to 70 watts. However, a look at our table of energy profiles also shows that there is hardly any additional performance above 54 watts.
Its benchmark results were excellent overall and only just behind the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 in the Asus Vivobook S 14 with similar power limits. Its lead over the old Yoga Pro 7 with the Ryzen 7 7840HS was 11 % across all CPU benchmarks and 17 % over the Core Ultra 7 155H in the Yoga Pro 7. The Yoga Slim 7x with the Snapdragon X Elite was just outperformed in the native Cinebench 2024 test.
In addition, the CPU's performance remains almost constant under constant load, which also applies to battery operation. Further CPU benchmarks are available in our tech section.

Storage device
The Yoga Pro 7 14 uses a compact M.2 2242 SSD with a PCIe 4.0 connection, in our case the Micron 2550 with a capacity of 1 TB. After first starting up the device, users have 898 GB of this available. The SSD's transfer rates are perfectly fine and remain very stable overall, even under constant load. Further SSD benchmarks can be found here.

Graphics card
The integrated Radeon 880M GPU has 10 computing units with a maximum clock speed of 2.9 GHz, resulting in a lower performance than that of the Radeon 890M, which is equipped with 12 CUs. In combination with the fast RAM, however, its performance is still excellent and almost identical to the Vivobook S 14 with the 890M. The Intel Arc Graphics with 8 Xe cores came ahead in the synthetic tests depending on the power limits, but the Adreno X1-85 GPU (3.8 TFLOPS) of the Snapdragon X Elite chips was clearly beaten.
In the gaming benchmarks, however, the picture changed, as the Radeon 880M came clearly ahead of the Intel competition, even beating the 890M in the Vivobook. This may also be due to the different driver versions. Overall, its gaming performance is very good for an iGPU and we noted no drop in performance even during longer sessions. The GPU's performance remains constant even on battery power. Further benchmarks are available here.

Emissions - Loud fans under load
Noise emissions
The high power limits are not only noticeable in the laptop's performance, but also in how its fans behave. They are usually deactivated in idle mode, but as soon as the processor or iGPU is put under more strain, the two fans become clearly audible. We measured around 35 dB(A) when gaming, which is still okay, but it quickly reached 44 dB(A) under higher CPU loads and during the stress test. This is already very loud and also significantly louder than the Intel version of the Yoga Pro 7 14. Its maximum volume can be limited to a much more pleasant 30 dB(A) by using the battery-saving mode.

Temperature
The Yoga Pro 7's case hardly heats up at all when idling and undertaking everyday tasks. Under load, the advantage of the high fan speed becomes apparent, as its surface temperatures remain very low overall and we even measured a maximum of 42 °C on the hotspot (middle area of the top). There are therefore no restrictions during use in this respect.
In the stress test with combined CPU/GPU load, the processor very quickly stabilized at 54 watts and remained stable at this level. The GPU operated at around 1.3 GHz and the CPU cores achieved an average clock rate of 2.9 GHz. The SoC temperature remained harmless at ~76 °C.
(±) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 42 °C / 108 F, compared to the average of 35.9 °C / 97 F, ranging from 21.4 to 59 °C for the class Subnotebook.
(±) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 40.6 °C / 105 F, compared to the average of 39.3 °C / 103 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 24.2 °C / 76 F, compared to the device average of 30.8 °C / 87 F.
(±) 3: The average temperature for the upper side is 36.9 °C / 98 F, compared to the average of 30.8 °C / 87 F for the class Subnotebook.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 31.2 °C / 88.2 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(-) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.2 °C / 82.8 F (-3 °C / -5.4 F).

Speakers
The Yoga features a sound system with a total of 4 modules (2x tweeters, 2x woofers) at 2 watts each. The result is average and at the usual class level, but there is still some room for improvement. It isn't being used to its full potential, especially in terms of its maximum volume and bass coverage—which is reflected in the somewhat less voluminous sound.

Power management - Short runtimes
Power consumption
The new Yoga Pro 7 14 is quite frugal when idling, despite its OLED panel. Under load, however, its high power limits become noticeable and we measured a maximum of 95 watts, which then leveled off at 89 watts in the further course of the stress test. When gaming, we noted just over 60 watts. The supplied 100-watt power supply unit is sufficient in size.

Runtimes
The Yoga has a 73-Wh battery and achieves decent runtimes on its own, but the competition is better in almost all cases. In the WLAN test at 150 cd/m², it didn't even quite manage 9 hours at 60 Hz (8:16 hours at 120 Hz) and it lasted only just over 6 hours (60 Hz) or 5:40 hours (120 Hz) at full brightness. In the video test, we measured just under 11 hours. A full charge only takes 85 minutes when the device is switched on, with 80 % of its capacity being available again after just 44 minutes.

Pros
Cons
Verdict - The Yoga Pro 7 with AMD Zen 5 offers a lot of performance, but weakens in terms of battery life
The latest Yoga Pro 7 14 G9 delivers great performance thanks to its new AMD Zen 5 chip—when it comes to its processor as well as its integrated graphics card. At 32 GB, its RAM should also be more than enough for most users, which is why its missing upgrade options aren't too big of a deal on this laptop as they would be on devices with 16 GB. Its connectivity is good, its input devices are comfortable and its aluminum case is flawless.
The laptop's OLED display boasts great picture quality—with regards to color depiction as well as animations (thanks to its refresh rate of 120 Hz). Furthermore, Lenovo delivers the device with extremely accurate color profiles for P3, sRGB & Rec709, meaning you can edit photos and videos with no issues whatsoever.
Thanks to its AMD Ryzen AI 9 965, the new Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 14 G9 offers very good performance along with an extremely accurate OLED panel, whereas its runtimes are comparatively short.
One weakness is definitely its battery life. In itself, the results are still okay, but the competition simply achieves significantly better results in most cases. Moreover, we find its power limits to be set a little too high, which also has a negative effect on the device's fans. In addition, the available energy profiles aren't particularly well graded. The auto profile is too close to performance mode and should rather occupy an area around 40 watts. The battery-saving mode is handy during everyday use for keeping the fans under control.
If you can come to terms with its runtimes, then you can look forward to a good total package. Lenovo's own Yoga Slim 7X is slimmer and offers considerably longer runtimes with its Snapdragon X Elite—but you'll have to make do with the compatibility problems that come with ARM Windows. The Asus Vivobook S 14 with its Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 is a similarly interesting competitor, but it only features a 60-Hz OLED screen with a much lower resolution. The Honor MagicBook Art 14, on the other hand, is of interest to those who are on the hunt for the most lightweight laptop and can live with a slight loss of performance.
Price and availability
The new Yoga Pro 7 G9 will be available to purchase soon directly from Lenovo, with prices starting at roughly US$1,780.
