Lenovo Yoga 9i is one of the most premium looking laptops in the market with premium design and solid build quality. But does it justify its hefty price tag of Rs 1,74,990? Well, the answer here depends upon what you are looking for from a laptop. The laptop can handle most day-to-day tasks including lightweight gaming along with that, the display and speaker combination takes the multimedia viewing experience to a next level. It has solid build quality with a 360-degree hinge, it also offers the flexibility on how or for what purpose you want to use the laptop. So, if you are looking for a premium laptop that not only has a pretty face but also performs well and you do not want to do anything with the heavy gaming and most importantly, if you have that kind of budget, then the Yoga 9i will not disappoint you.

The Lenovo Yoga 9i is an expensive proposition for sure but the display quality and the incredible speakers do leave a lasting impression. Design-wise, there are only a few which can oust the Yoga 9i in terms of portability and sleekness, while still maintaining a robust chassis. Intel’s 11th-gen i7 silicone provides reasonably good performance too. If you want the best of what Lenovo can offer for a productive day-to-day workflow in a stylish package and can afford the Rs 1,70,490 outlay, the Lenovo Yoga 9i gets a thumbs up from me.

Be it for business or academia, the Lenovo Yoga 9i 14 is sure to help boost your productivity. It’s a good-looking and powerful machine with a fantastic keyboard as well as a stunning touchscreen display. The battery life might be mediocre but this PC is far from average overall.

So the Yoga 9i ultimately doesn’t take the Spectre’s crown. Still, it delivers such standout audio — a realm where so many expensive laptops are flatly terrible — that I’m glad it exists as an option for people who really value the quality of their music and movie soundtracks. And the 9i is certainly functional enough in every other area that if you’re looking for a convertible and the Spectre is out of your price range or if standout audio and a garaged stylus are priorities for you, it’s one to consider.

As this Lenovo Yoga 9i review has shown, it's an impressive stunner up and down. The Yoga 9i offers pretty great battery life, a colorful touchscreen display that’s better than the average 1080p screen, amazing rotating speakers that baffled me with the sound it produced, and fast performance. However, when you compare the Yoga 9i to its competitors, its results could be a bit better in certain categories, and there is a major limit of ports. Want a brighter screen? Go for the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1, though its battery life isn't as long. If you're not tied to Windows 10 or a convertible design, take a look at the Apple MacBook Air with M1, which has a nicer display and longer battery life. But just as with the XPS 13 2-in-1 and the Spectre x630 14, you're going to wind up spending a lot more to get the same specs. Otherwise, this 2-in-1 is everything you need.

Lenovo's Yoga 9i gets a new name but is relatively unchanged from last year. It's still a fantastic laptop but the competition is gaining and only the Shadow Black model (not reviewed) brings exciting innovation.

So here’s the thing, the Lenovo Yoga 9i may not be perfect. I would have loved a few more ports and the pen to be on the right-hand side. Plus having a 16×10 aspect ratio and maybe even an AMD processor would have helped, but it’s still a solid two in one and one of the better ones out there that you can buy today especially for the price. The sound alone is good, the battery life is amazing and the build quality is good. If you’re just looking for a very solid two-in-one then this might be the one for you.

Mediocre performance is its key flaw. The Yoga 9i isn’t slow, but its Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor feels lackluster for the price. The MacBook Air or Pro with Apple Silicon blows away this laptop in both benchmarks and day-to-day use. Sticking to the Windows world, you’ll find better performance from a laptop with AMD’s Ryzen or an Intel Core i7 six-core CPU.

Other than the touchpad, it's a lovely PC, and it's probably my favorite design of any Lenovo consumer laptop that I've ever seen. Seriously, the black color makes it look so much better than the bland shades of gray that I've been looking at for years, and the leather lid makes it even better. I didn't talk too much about it in the review, but even the glossy black soundbar is a nice touch.

A surprisingly powerful laptop, the 11th-generation, Intel Evo-certified Lenovo Yoga 9i is plenty capable of handling just about anything you can throw at it and has a phenomenal battery life to keep you going long after it's competitors throw in the towel.

Like I said at the top, not too much has changed from last year's Yoga C940, at least on the Mica version I tested. You get better performance and battery life, an improved typing experience and a new tip on the included active pen for more pleasing writing and drawing experience. This was already a pretty great two-in-one and the improvements here just cement it as a top pick for the category for the foreseeable future. As always, though, this is far from the only two-in-one option out there.

Intel’s EVO spec push has made an already nice laptop from Lenovo, that much nicer. There weren’t huge leaps in performance and Lenovo seemingly played it safe with a design framework that’s a proven commodity in the latest of its Yoga 900 series. For anyone in the market for a new laptop, there aren’t many other choices that top this year’s offering from Lenovo. I would also recommend getting the black leather option of the 14-inch if available because it just looks amazingly different in a sea of slate grey laptops.

The winning formula from Lenovo's Yoga C940 works even better in the Yoga 9i. Though Dell's latest XPS 13 2-in-1 keeps our Editors' Choice brass ring among premium convertibles, mainly for its sleeker design and higher screen resolution, the Yoga 9i can be an even more attractive option depending on what you emphasize. Its rotating sound bar, extra-long battery life, included stylus (a $99 option on the Dell), comfortable keyboard, and competitive price make it an first-rate contender in this highly competitive market.

First things first, the Yoga 9i (14) is a very well built machine. Premium materials, unorthodox approach, the latest and greatest in terms of technology – Intel Tiger Lake CPUs, Thunderbolt 4 support, Wi-Fi 6 support, and so on. It also produces a great Dobly Audio-tuned sound with its four 2W speakers. However, the entire idea has its drawbacks. And the first one is the touchpad. While having a glass palm rest area looks amazing and pleasing to the eye, there is a reason it is not being widely used.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.
In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.
In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.
