Core Ultra 5 125U performance debut: Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 16IML9 convertible review
The Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 16IML9 (or Yoga 7 2-in-1 16 G9) succeeds last year's budget Yoga 7 2-in-1 G8 by introducing new Meteor Lake-U processors. The chassis is otherwise the same and so we recommend checking out our review on the Yoga 7 2-in-1 G8 to learn more about the physical features of the model.
Our test unit is the base configuration with the Core Ultra 5 125U CPU for approximately $900 USD retail. A higher-end option is also available with the Core Ultra 7 155U, but all SKUs at the moment come with the same 1920 x 1200 IPS touchscreen and 16 GB of fast LPDDR5x-7467 soldered RAM.
Alternatives to the Yoga 7 2-in-1 16 G9 include other 16-inch multimedia convertibles like the Dell Inspiron 16 7635 2-in-1 or the upcoming HP Envy x360 16.

Case — Now With Microsoft Co-Pilot
The easiest way to distinguish between the 2024 model from the 2023 model is to look for the new Co-Pilot key on the keyboard. There are otherwise no visual differences from the 2023 design.
Connectivity
Port options remain identical except for the HDMI port which has been upgraded to v2.1 from v1.4.

Display
No new display options are available meaning all configurations are still using the same IPS panel as found on the 2023 model. This particular panel covers only ~60% of sRGB (i.e., 45% NTSC) which automatically categorizes it as a lower-end budget panel. Most other 16-inch laptops offer full sRGB coverage in comparison including even the similarly priced Dell Inspiron 16 7635 2-in-1.

Performance — Meteor Lake-U For AI Acceleration
Testing Conditions
We set both Windows and Lenovo Vantage to Performance mode prior to running the benchmarks below.
Processor
Raw performance from the Core Ultra 5 125U is nearly identical to last year's Core i5-1335U even though the newer CPU serves as a direct replacement. In fact, the older Core i7-1355U as found on the Yoga 7 2-in-1 16IRL8 can outperform the Core Ultra 5 125U by 5 to 10 percent. Users who prefer the Core Ultra 5 125U should therefore be drawn to its integrated NPU to help accelerate certain AI tasks coming to Windows in the near future.
Upgrading to the Core Ultra 7 155U configuration is only expected to increase performance just marginally based on our time with the Yoga Book 9.

Stress Test
Core temperature is generally higher than what we recorded on last year's model by a few degrees C. When running Prime95 or Witcher 3, for example, the CPU would stabilize at 79 C and 68 C, respectively, compared to 64 C and 63 C on the Yoga 7 16IRL8. The CPU would spike to 4.1 GHz and 41 W when initiating Prime95 stress before quickly falling and stabilizing at 2.4 GHz and 28 W to demonstrate limited Turbo Boost sustainability.
CPU Clock (GHz) | GPU Clock (MHz) | Average CPU Temperature (°C) | |
System Idle | -- | -- | 44 |
Prime95 Stress | ~2.8 | 400 | 79 |
Prime95 + FurMark Stress | ~2.1 | 950 - 1450 | 74 |
Witcher 3 Stress | ~0.4 | 1850 | 68 |
System Performance
PCMark scores are nearly identical to last year's model to show no major performance gains when it comes to daily browsing or editing tasks.

Storage Devices
Our unit ships with the SK Hynix HFS512GEJ4X112N whereas last year's model would ship with the Western Digital PC SN740. Unfortunately, the SK Hynix drive is slightly slower and it would even exhibit transfer rate issues when stressed with DiskSpd as shown by our graph below. The short dips in performance would occur even after repeat testing to confirm their reproducibility. The issue thankfully does not impact day-to-day usage, but it is unwelcoming to see nonetheless.
