Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x (14.5-Inch, 2024)

Bright, detailed display ; Beefy performance ; Fantastic battery life

Meagre port selection ; Thin speakers

The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x Gen 9 is a fantastic Windows ultrabook with a gorgeous OLED display, beefy performance and fantastic battery life. It also looks and feels excellent with an aluminium frame, although its connectivity could be better.

Excellent, substantial-feeling keyboard ; Long battery life for light work ; Glass touchpad feels great

Buying a laptop of this style requires a little faith ; No headphone jack and speakers could be better ; Not the most rigid display

We’re not persuaded everyone needs a made-for-AI laptop. But the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x makes a pretty compelling case as the best pick for those seeking one. The pricing is sensible, particularly for upgrades, the external hardware is great, the...

Light and thin chassis ; Excellent display ; Potentially incredible battery life ; Performance should be top-notch ; Great keyboard and touchpad ; Affordable

Poor port selection ; Couldn't test out AI features

I was briefly able to get hands-on with the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x 14 laptop, which is the manufacturer's first foray into combining Qualcomm's Snapdragon CPU with AI tools and features. The laptop itself seems promising, with a great design, display, and...

Svelte chassis and stunning OLED screen ; Comfortably lasts all day ; Strong performer in most desktop duties

Limited connectivity ; Familiar ARM software stumbles ; Not as all-in on AI as the marketing suggests

This slim and speedy ultraportable almost keeps pace with the MacBook Air on battery life. Windows on ARM isn’t perfect yet, but the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x is otherwise a great all-rounder.

Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite offers fantastic performance for day-to-day tasks ; Incredibly long battery life ; A well-built and good-looking laptop ; Wonderful display ; Super value for money

Speakers are just ok ; Ports are not diverse enough (haha, see what I did here) ; It's not even good at light gaming ; Windows on Arm is better than ever but still a work in progress

The TL;DR version: The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x's excellent build quality, strong day-to-day performance, and outstanding battery life makes this sub-$2,000 laptop all too easy to recommend. Note: The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x is available at Lenovo's e-store ,...

Solid build and attractive aesthetic Quite thin Efficient performance and battery life Spectacular OLED display Attractive pricing

Graphics performance is disappointing So-so mechanical touchpad

“The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x is a fantastic platform for Copilot+ and the Qualcomm Snapdragon X chips.”

Unbeatable performance for the price. Outstanding screen. Great battery life.

Loud fan. Sleepy design. Attracts oily smudges from fingers.

Amazing battery life ; Beautiful OLED screen ; Great pricing on RAM and storage upgrades

No headphone jack or USB-A port ; Windows on Arm app compatibility isn’t perfect ; “Yoga” name is misleading as this isn’t a 2-in-1 ; Copilot+ PC AI features are half-baked

This Snapdragon X Elite-powered laptop combines a beautiful 14.5-inch OLED display with long battery life. But Snapdragon laptops without an OLED screen will get even longer battery life, and application compatibility still isn’t perfect on these new...

Impressive battery life ; Fantastic keyboard ; Sharp OLED display ; Strong multi-core performance

Mediocre gaming performance ; No USB Type-A ports ; Reflective display

The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x balances price and performance with a stylish design and strong battery life, making it a great all-around consumer laptop and a satisfying introduction to the new realm of Copilot+ PCs.

Great looking design, especially the color ; Solid build quality ; Bright and colorful OLED display at 3K ; Performance is outstanding ; Battery life is fantastic ; Fantastic Lenovo keyboard

Attracts fingerprints, but easily cleaned ; I wish the trackpad had haptics ; Speakers could be better, not bad, but could be better

Buy it, if you’re looking at any of the Snapdragon X Elite laptops. Buy this one. I may change my mind once I get my hands on the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.
