Lenovo expands availability of Panther Lake-powered Yoga Slim 7i Ultra Aura Edition

Lenovo introduced the Yoga Slim 7i Ultra at CES 2026, and shortly after the debut, the Panther Lake laptop became available to purchase in the UK. Now, the brand has made it available in the US.

Of course, the upper-end models aren't available in the US yet. Instead, Lenovo is currently only offering the Intel Core Ultra 7 355 configuration, which is the base option for the Panther Lake laptop. It's available from $1,629.99 on the official store.

This Panther Lake processor is paired with 32GB of RAM, and users can get the laptop with up to 2TB PCIe Gen 4 storage. On the front, the Yoga Slim 7i Ultra Aura Edition comes with a "2.8K" OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 100% Display-P3 and Adobe RGB coverage, and 1,100 nits peak brightness rating.

As for the design, the laptop comes with a slim and lightweight chassis. Lenovo notes that it measures as thin as 13.99mm and weighs 2.15lbs. The port configuration includes three Thunderbolt 4 ports, and for wireless connections, the Yoga Slim 7i Ultra Aura Edition has WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4.

A 75Wh battery powers the internals of the laptop, and Lenovo notes that the cooling setup is capable enough to let the Panther Lake CPU offer 40W TDP performance. Support for Rapid Charge Express, a quad-speaker setup with Dolby Atmos, and a 3D noise-cancelling mic array are among the other highlights of the laptop.

At CES 2026, Lenovo mentioned that the laptop will be available with up to the Core Ultra X9 388H, which features the capable Intel Arc B390 iGPU. This top-end model is expected to be available sometime between April and June 2026.
