Reviews for the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14IMH9
If you're looking for a traditional clamshell laptop that just works, then the Yoga Slim 7 14 G9 might pique your interest. It offers OLED and the latest 1st gen Intel Core Ultra CPUs without any flashy design features to keep prices attractive.

The Lenovo Slim 7 14 is boring in the best way possible. It’s a competent laptop that delivers good build quality and solid performance at a reasonable price, yet it lacks any single feature or advantage that might give it a clear edge over the competition. In this it differs from Lenovo’s more expensive laptops, which often include cutting-edge features like Mini-LED displays or a miniature soundbar built into the hinge. The result is a competent, well-priced laptop that should make most people happy, but your buying decision will ultimately come down to price. If the Slim 7 14 happens to be on sale for less than an Asus Zenbook 14 OLED or the HP Pavilion Plus Laptop 14, get the Lenovo. And if the opposite is true, go with the competitor.

The new Lenovo Slim 7i 14 deploys a peppy Intel Core Ultra chip to good effect inside a nicely built, compact metal body. This is more or less exactly the experience you’d expect from looking at the laptop—a travel-ready and long-lasting system that feels good in hand. The OLED screen is vibrant, though a higher resolution may be expected at this price, like those seen on its competition. And there’s also no discrete graphics to sweeten the pot, unlike Lenovo’s own 2023 Slim Pro 7 Gen 8, which included one for less. Still, it doesn’t err in any major way; the Acer Swift Go 14 is a close comparison, swapping a better screen for more RAM and storage. The roughly $200 price difference over the Asus Zenbook 14X OLED can be explained by the doubled RAM and storage, but neither is especially necessary in this category, and the Zenbook boasts a higher-resolution 120Hz display at $999.

Overall, the Lenovo Slim 7i Gen 9 14-inch is a well-rounded, compact laptop that performed well in all of our tests. It handles everyday productivity tasks with ease and it can even run some casual games with the integrated Intel Arc graphics. The 10-hour battery life is plenty to get you through a full day of work or studying and the bright, crisp OLED display is easy on the eyes. While the webcam and touchpad on the Lenovo Slim 7i could be better, the snappy keyboard and stellar audio help make up for it. The Slim 7i also outperformed some more expensive competitors in our tests, including the 15-inch M3 Macbook Air, so it’s definitely worth considering if you’re looking for a compact productivity laptop.

The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i is a strong contender for those seeking a laptop with solid performance, excellent battery life, and a stunning display. The latest generation of Intel’s processors brings exciting advancements, particularly with the inclusion of AI features that promise even more functionality once developers tap into the new NPUs. The Yoga Slim 7i still manages to handle graphics-intensive tasks and light gaming remarkably well despite lacking a dedicated GPU, unlike previous Intel laptops. Its sleek design and feature-rich build add to its appeal, although a faster display would have been a nice addition, the overall image quality is impressive. All in all, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i is a solid choice for users in search of a thin-and-light laptop.

Like I said earlier in the review, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i fills a very important gap in India’s laptop market. It is relatively affordable than its much pricier competitor and the compromises it asks you to make are something most people can easily live with. The laptop is well-built and has a great keyboard, a decent display and great performance. The Yoga Slim 7i delivers more power and handles the thermal stress that comes with it even better.

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.
