Lenovo has finally released one of its latest mini-PCs globally. Now sold across North America after releases elsewhere earlier this year, the Yoga Mini i Gen 11 combines Intel's Panther Lake architecture into a sub-1-litre body with a 16-core processor, Arc B390 graphics and 32 GB of RAM.

Lenovo has finally given one of its latest mini-PCs a global release. Announced in January, the Yoga Mini i Gen 11 was one of multiple devices that the company brought to CES 2026 in Las Vegas. Initially, Lenovo had hoped to start selling the Yoga Mini i Gen 11 in June 2026 across the US.

Not only did that not occur, but it has not arrived at its quoted $699 MSRP, either. Instead, the mini-PC debuted in March across selected markets like China. Moreover, Lenovo then released the Yoga Mini i Gen 11 in April for European customers for £900 in the UK and €1,050-€1,289 in the Eurozone. Now, the mini-PC is available to purchase from Lenovo's North American websites as the company finishes its global rollout.

Earlier this summer, the Yoga Mini i Gen 11 appeared on Best Buy US. As we discussed at the time, the retailer stocked Core Ultra 5 325 and Core Ultra X7 358H variants, albeit not in Canada. At the time of writing, only the latter is available from Lenovo directly. Even then, the mini-PC is significantly more expensive than Apple's M6-based Mac mini (curr. $879 on Amazon).

At the time of publication, the Yoga Mini i Gen 11 costs CAD 2,899 and $2,086 in Canada and the US, respectively. Paired with 32 GB of RAM and a 1 TB M.2 2280 SSD (PCIe Gen 4), the Core Ultra X7 358H combines 16 processor cores with an Arc B390 iGPU inside a 0.65-litre case that measures a mere 130 x 130 x 48.6 mm. At this stage, it is unclear when Lenovo will release a cheaper Core Ultra 5 325 variant, nor why it charges $217 more for its Core Ultra X7 358H model in the US than Best Buy does. Please see Lenovo's website for more details.
