Lenovo releases new 14-inch laptop with Intel Lunar Lake and 70 Wh battery

Lenovo has expanded its Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition range with more Gen 11 models. In summary, the company replaced Gen 10 models in March during MWC 2026. At the time, the company claimed that Intel's Panther Lake processors were one of the main changes this year.
For some reason, Lenovo has now decided to complicate the Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition somewhat with Intel Lunar Lake options that were present in Gen 10 models (curr. $1,199 on Amazon). For the time being, we can only find these in Europe. However, Lenovo's PSREF website indicates that the Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition (14ILL11) will be available elsewhere.

Likewise, Lenovo is restricting 14ILL11 to 16 GB of RAM with the Core Ultra 5 226V or Core Ultra 7 256V, at the time of publication. PSREF reports that 32 GB of RAM variants are coming, though. The 14ILL11 can currently be configured with 512 GB or 1 TB of storage too but only a 1200p, 400-nit and 60 Hz OLED display. By contrast, the 14IPH11 can be purchased with 2.8K and 120 Hz OLED alternatives.
Lenovo continues to include a 70 Wh battery though, albeit within a 312 x 221 x 13.9 mm housing that is said to weigh 20 g more than Panther Lake-powered alternatives. The 14ILL11 is over over 25% cheaper than the 14IPH11 in Europe at £828 in the UK and €962-€1,149 in the Eurozone. Nonetheless, the 14ILL11 offers superior GPU performance than its 14IPH11 counterpart while trading blows in CPU workloads.
