Man does not live by laptops alone: the Yoga AIO 7 is a powerful desktop PC in an All-in-One format that stands out for a very special stand. Among other things, this stand allows the screen of this device to be used in portrait mode by rotating it 90 degrees and can even be used as a monitor for other external equipment.
The device is also well loaded internally, especially with the presence of the new AMD Ryzen 6000 processors, fantastic connectivity, and the use of a promising 5 MPx webcam that is not integrated, but detachable.

This screen is very special
The design of this equipment stands out for a 27-inch 4K IPS screen that almost completely hides its frames but has a curious secret that is frankly difficult to see in All-in-One format equipment: it rotates.
The Yoga AIO 7’s versatile stand is precisely designed to be able to rotate the screen 90 degrees and thus use it in portrait mode, something that can be very interesting for displaying certain types of content and information.
The stand also provides the device with excellent connectivity options: we have several USB ports on both the front and the back and even on the top. There is also an Ethernet connector and headphone and microphone jacks, but there is also another surprise: a DisplayPort port.
This port allows us to use the screen of the Yoga AIO 7 as a monitor without further ado: just connect a computer to the DP input so that you can enjoy this monitor when you need it for, for example, a laptop with which you want to work or play at a certain time.
You can also create a hybrid environment by simultaneously using the laptop connected to the USB-C port and the Yoga AIO 7 itself with a single keyboard and mouse while charging the laptop.
It is even possible to cast from compatible smartphones to display on this screen what you want to see from your mobile. For example, videos of any kind, which will have the two-speaker system certified by JBL. Lenovo also highlights that they have applied a special technology for its passive radiators that generates 3 dB more sound power than similar 5 W models.
An AMD heart for an All-in-One with some gaming overtones
This design and external features are combined with a very complete hardware proposal. The new AMD Ryzen 6000 processors with Zen 3+ architecture are the stars of the show.
These chips manufactured with 6 nm photolithography stand out, especially for their more efficient CPU cores, but the real jewel is in their integrated AMD Radeon 600 GPUs, which thanks to the RDNA 2 architecture can aspire to offer more than decent gaming sessions.
If we need something more in that section we have the option of variants with a dedicated AMD Radeon 6600M graphics that will give much more packaging to this All-in-One as a team for gamers, but the promise of these processors and their native graphics are remarkable.
Accompanying these chips are up to 32 GB of RAM that can be configured along with up to 1 TB of storage on a PCIe 4.0 SSD.
One of the striking elements of this proposal is also the 5 Megapixels webcam that includes an IR sensor for facial recognition and is also removable despite being perfectly integrated into the top mount: its USB connection at the top rear of the screen allows you to disconnect it when not in use.
Price and availability of the Lenovo Yoga AIO 7
