Reviews for the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9 16IMH9, RTX 4060
Source: Hot Hardware
Lenovo continues to refine its flagship laptop for creators and gamers alike, combining Intel's Core Ultra CPUs and NVIDIA's mid-tier GeForce RTX 4060 laptop GPU in a beautiful chassis. Not to be outdone is this machine's amazingly bright mini-LED touch-enabled display. It you can swing its price premium and tolerate less battery life, it's a worthwhile tick on Lenovo's options list. We're also glad to see this machine's excellent flexibility with a broader range of peripherals via the latest HDMI and USB-C connectors. As a whole, the Yoga Pro 9i is a smooth performer when running regular tasks without making nary a fuss or noise. And then there's its GeForce RTX 4060 GPU that really cranks the machine up, turning it into a legitimate editing and gaming rig for the next few years, at least.

The 2024 Lenovo Pro 9i 16’s main attraction is its 16-core Intel Core Ultra 9 185H CPU, which outperforms all other Windows laptops we’ve tested in multi-core performance benchmarks. The bright and crisp mini-LED screen, paired with the six-speaker Dolby Atmos-powered stereo sound, makes the Yoga an excellent choice for entertainment. A larger battery that reaches at least 10 hours of battery life (which we’d still consider average) would have been nice but also might have added to the Yoga’s already solid weight of 4.86 pounds. While the Yoga brand might include expectations for the hinge to fold back a full 360 degrees, the size and weight would make a tablet mode cumbersome. However, with a screen of this size and quality, a tent mode would have been a welcome feature for entertainment purposes.

We praised the MSI Prestige 16 AI Evo for selling a spiffy OLED screen for $1,450. The Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i is more expensive at $1,900 but combines a spiffy Mini LED display with a faster Core Ultra 9 CPU and Nvidia GeForce graphics, outpacing laptops that cost half again as much. We would appreciate the laptop even more if it weighed less and its arrow keys were in the proper inverted T instead of a row. Still, its screen, performance, and sound make the ninth Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i 16 an easy Editors' Choice award winner.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
