Lenovo Yoga Book 9i (13.3-inch, 2023)

Dual-display portability ; Strong 13th Gen Intel Core i7 performance ; Crisp and accurate display ; Good keyboard and stand

Lacking a physical trackpad ; Software still has some way to go ; Few useful modes

The Lenovo Yoga Book 9i is a unique device in this category thanks to its dual-screen design, but with a high price that can’t be ignored. You can be rightly sceptical over how such a laptop can be worth this much cash but it strikes gold as a way to...

Fantastic day-to-day performance ; Gorgeous screen and design ; Useful in multiple modes ; Comes with solid quality-of-life accessories

Expensive ; Limited ports ; Not powerful enough for more robust tasks

The Lenovo Yoga Book 9i is a beauty, from its sleek aesthetics to its gorgeous OLED screens. Plus, the unique setup not only offers it up as a conversation piece, but adds much more screen real estate than the typical laptop. Of course, it’s pricey and...

Bold OLED screens ; Decent keyboard accessory ; Can almost feel like a dual-screen desktop PC

Using screens alone for work is not much fun ; Poor virtual touchpad experience ; The cost of novelty is high

Laptop designs don’t get much more ambitious and out-there than the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i. It’s at its best when acting like a dual-screen PC you can take to hotels and offices across the world. But it isn’t quite as appealing when you just want a...

Unusual dual-OLED-screen design ; Has "proper" PC components ready for real work ; Solid typing experience with keyboard accessory ; Includes stylus and near-essential folio case

Expensive ; Virtual touchpad is poor ; Keyboard not always recognised when used in laptop mode

Lenovo’s Book series continues to offer novel designs you don’t tend to see everywhere, like this portable dual-monitor PC. However, using it like a laptop highlights some frustrating issues and it doesn’t quite have the pep to replace a desktop for...

Dual-display flexibility is actually useful Two superior OLED displays Origami stand works well Great external keyboard Solid and attractive build Outstanding pen support

A few glitches A lot of components to carry around Battery life could be better

“With two screens and lots of modes, the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i is one of the most interesting laptops ever made.”

Refined dual-screen design ; High-quality OLED displays ; Portable design with handy peripherals ; Potent performance for most tasks

Quirky form factor won't be to every taste ; Minimal port selection ; 7-hour battery life is a bit short

Lenovo's Yoga Book 9i impresses with its dual-screen OLED design and speedy performance, even if this twin-screened innovator won't suit everyone. This laptop is worth considering for early adopters who can embrace its quirks for the sake of...

Two practical, usable screens in one laptop ; Clever accessories to make best use of both screens ; Excellent audio ; Surprisingly good battery life

Lousy as a traditional laptop ; Requires a lot of process to set up each time ; Software quirks because of the two screens ; Endless bloatware and advertisements ; Expensive

Still, the Yoga Book 9i allows me to be nearly as productive from the coffee shop as I am at my desk at home, provided I remember to tote along all the necessary accessories to make it work. That alone might be worth the compromises elsewhere.

Two screens are a massive game changer for mobile productivity (and a real head turner). Brighter than bright touchscreens. Excellent battery life.

Performance isn’t great. Moving content between screens isn’t entirely intuitive. Enough with the endless pop-ups: No, Lenovo, I do not want 3 months of free Amazon Music Unlimited.
