Verdict — Raising Standards
Unlike many traditional clamshells in the market, the Lenovo Pro 9 16 G11 Aura comes with no less than a Core Ultra 9 CPU, GeForce RTX GPU, and an OLED touchscreen for a premier user experience no matter the configuration level. It offers one of the brightest touchscreens in its size class and seemingly checks off all the boxes you could ask for from a multimedia powerhouse including an integrated card reader, healthy selection of ports, great audio, and support for multiple internal SSDs. We can't say the same about the new Dell XPS 16 which has omitted some of these features for its latest redesign.
While we appreciate that the 2026 model is slightly thinner and lighter than the 2025 model, it otherwise doesn't offer many performance improvements as the new Core Ultra 9 386H performs almost the same as last year's Core Ultra 9 285H. Both GPU and display options remain the same for no improvements to the user experience, either. Dropping the numpad in favor of larger speaker grilles may also impact certain usage scenarios that depend on it.
The most notable drawbacks to the model are its fan noise when in Performance mode and both heavier weight and shorter battery life relative to competitors in spite of the battery capacity upgrade. Cramming so many features and ports evidently has its consequences when it comes to portability. Users who can get by without discrete graphics or a fancy OLED screen will find the Panther Lake XPS 16 or MSI Prestige 16 to be much quieter, sleeker and more travel-friendly alternatives. On the other hand, if you really need discrete graphics, then this do-it-all Lenovo is still one of our favorite 16-inch multimedia machines available two years running.

Cons
Price and Availability
The Lenovo Pro 9 16IPH11 is now shipping starting at $2800 for the base 1800p RTX 5050 configuration up to over $3100 for the 2000p RTX 5060 configuration as reviewed.
The Lenovo Pro 9 16IPH11 (marketed as the Lenovo Pro 9i Aura Edition 16 G11) directly succeeds last year's Yoga Pro 9i 16IAH G10 Aura. The manufacturer has both dropped the Yoga name while refreshing the external design.
Our test unit is the top configuration equipped with the 100 W GeForce RTX 5060 GPU and 3200 x 2000 Tandem OLED touchscreen for approximately $3100. Lower-end SKUs come with the RTX 5050 or 2880 x 1800 OLED instead, but all options ship with the same Core Ultra 9 386H Panther Lake CPU.
This flagship Lenovo model competes directly with other high-end 16-inch multimedia machines including the MSI Prestige 16 AI Evo, Asus ZenBook 16 series, and the new Dell XPS 16.

Specifications
Case
Lenovo has made several external changes from last year's design. The most notable is the removal of the numpad in favor of larger upfiring speaker grilles along the sides of the keyboard. Additionally, the bottom D cover is no longer completely flat as the ventilation grilles are now slightly raised. The laser-etched "Yoga" label that was so prominent on last year's model has also been removed as Lenovo wants to emphasize the "Pro" naming instead.
The new model is slightly thinner, smaller, and lighter than the previous generation but with otherwise the same anodized aluminum materials for a similar level of quality.
Connectivity
Despite all the physical changes mentioned above, the ports remain the same as before.

Maintenance
Sustainability
Lenovo does not provide any details on recycled materials used during manufacturing. The packaging is otherwise free of plastics and fully recyclable.
Input Devices
Key font and printing have changed from last year's model to be larger, centered, and generally easier to see. The feel of the keys are otherwise the same including the 1.5 mm travel and relatively crisp feedback for a similar typing experience despite the lack of a numpad.
Display
The two touchscreen options remain the same as before:
- 2880 x 1800, OLED, 500 nits SDR (1100 nits HDR), 100% DCI-P3, 120 Hz, Gorilla Glass 3
- 3200 x 2000, Tandem OLED, 1000 nits SDR (1600 nits HDR), 100% DCI-P3, 120 Hz, Gorilla Glass 3
The tandem OLED display on our unit is the exact same Samsung ATNA60KA04-0 panel as found on the 2025 Yoga Pro 9i 16 for the same viewing experience. Our own measurements reveal a maximum center brightness of 931 nits on SDR mode and 1480 nits on HDR mode to make this one of the brightest displays on any 16-inch laptop.
Keep in mind that while Advanced Optimus is supported, G-Sync continues to be omitted since the Pro 9 series is not primarily for gaming.

Testing Conditions
We set Windows to Performance mode and discrete graphics mode prior to running the benchmarks below.
Processor
The new Core Ultra 9 386H unfortunately provides little to no performance advantages over the previous generation Core Ultra 9 285H as shown by our comparison charts below. In fact, the new CPU even features less L2 and L3 cache than its predecessor. However, it makes up for this with improved manufacturing efficiency (1.8 nm vs. 5 nm) and faster integrated NPU performance (50 vs. 13 TOPS).

GPU Performance
The mobile GeForce RTX 5060 is performing where we expect it to be relative to other laptops with the same GPU. Raw graphics performance is slightly behind the gaming-optimized Legion 7 16 AGP11 equipped with the same RTX 5060 by just a few percentage points.
Running the system on Balanced mode instead of Performance mode would impact graphics performance by up to 10 percent as shown by our Time Spy results table below.
Downgrading to the RTX 5050 configuration from our RTX 5060 is expected to reduce graphics performance by as much as 20 to 25 percent.

Emissions
System Noise
Fan noise ceiling and behavior closely match last year's Yoga Pro 9 16IAH10 since there are no major changes to the motherboard. Perhaps most importantly, fan noise when running Cyberpunk 2077 would hover around 41 dB(A) if on Balanced mode or 50 dB(A) if on Performance mode. The aforementioned 10 percent drop in graphics performance when gaming on Balanced mode may be a reasonable compromise for the much quieter fans.

Temperature
Surface temperatures are noticeably cooler despite the smaller dimensions than the outgoing model. When running Cyberpunk 2077, for example, hot spots on our unit would top out at only 38 C and 41 C compared to 42 C and 49 C on the Yoga Pro 9i 16IAH G10 Aura with the same Nvidia GPU.
(+) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 37.8 °C / 100 F, compared to the average of 36.8 °C / 98 F, ranging from 21 to 71 °C for the class Multimedia.
(+) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 38.2 °C / 101 F, compared to the average of 39.1 °C / 102 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 27.1 °C / 81 F, compared to the device average of 31.3 °C / 88 F.
(+) 3: The average temperature for the upper side is 31.7 °C / 89 F, compared to the average of 31.3 °C / 88 F for the class Multimedia.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 29.4 °C / 84.9 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(±) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.7 °C / 83.7 F (-0.7 °C / -1.2 F).

Stress Test
The CPU would boost to 3.3 GHz, 98 C, and 86 W when initiating Prime95 stress before falling and stabilizing at 3.0 GHz, 90 C, and 62 W about 30 seconds later.
Core temperature and clock rates would change drastically between Balanced and Performance modes as shown by the screenshots below. When running Cyberpunk 2077, for example, the GPU would average 2647 MHz, 75 C, and 91 W if set to Performance mode or 2340 MHz, 68 C, and 67 W if set to Balanced mode. The overall slower performance on Balanced mode aligns with our Time SPy observations in the GPU section above.

Energy Management
Power Consumption
The Lenovo system is a very demanding machine with a high minimum of 15 W even when on the dimmest brightness setting with Optimus active up to 46 W if on the brightest setting with the dGPU active. When running higher loads like games, our unit would consume just as much power as the Asus ProArt P16 equipped with the faster Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 CPU and RTX 5070 GPU.

Battery Life
Runtimes are relatively short even when set to Balanced mode with the iGPU active. The relatively large 93 Wh battery pack can only muster 5.5 hours of WLAN browsing before automatic shutdown which is several hours shorter than many other multimedia models including Lenovo's own Yoga Pro 9i 16IAH G10 Aura.
