Reviews for the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14ARE05 82A20008GE
Lenovo's 14-inch notebook features a powerful Ryzen 7 4700U APU with NVMe SSD and offers decent battery life. Noise and temperature emissions are fairly low for a device this thin.

Archive.org versionFor £850 the new Ryzen-powered Slim 7 packs quite a punch. Its octa-core processor stomps all over Intel’s latest Core i5 silicon while at the same time offering outstandingly good battery life. The display is superb and will appeal to anyone who thinks gloss-finish screens are the work of the devil. The speakers don’t let the side down either. Add a very good keyboard and rock-solid aluminium body into the mix and you’ve got a compelling package. As I said at the beginning, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 is a very fine laptop indeed – truly a hot hatch among budget ultrabooks.

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.
