Lenovo has today renewed its Yoga family of laptops, and among the various models, there is a particularly striking one: the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Pro X with Intel processors, which also has a variant with AMD processors, the Slim 7 Pro X.
These laptops have a 14.5-inch screen with a remarkable resolution and NVIDIA Studio validation, which is specially designed for digital content creation environments.

A design in which the webcam has its own “inverted notch”
The design of these Slim 7i Pro X and Slim 7 Pro stands out for screen frames where we find a curious detail: the webcam has its place with a kind of notch or inverted notch that makes the upper frame a little wider precisely in that central part.
Thanks to this, Lenovo can seamlessly integrate both the Full HD webcam and an IR sensor that will support facial recognition authentication via Windows Hello.
The rest of the design is conservative and elegant and makes use of 6000 series aluminum and the Comfort Edge Design design language that rounds the edges of the device.
On the sides, we find various ports, but there is one notable feature: a privacy switch that allows you to disable the webcam in a much more forceful way.
There is a curious difference between the Intel and AMD models: the latter does not have an HDMI port, and instead includes an additional USB-A port.
A commitment to creators
These computer features are geared toward content creators. The first thing that stands out is its 14.5-inch “3K” screen, which can be found in a glossy or matte finish and also has a touch variant.
There are also the latest processors from Intel (12th generation) and AMD (Ryzen 6000), accompanied by up to 32 GB of LPDDR5 RAM at high speed (6400 MHz in the case of the AMD model modules, slightly less -6000 Mhz- for the Intel) and up to 1 TB of PCIe 4.0 SSD.
These processors can be combined with up to an NVIDIA RTX 3050, and NVIDIA Studio validation ensures that we have the guarantee of being able to squeeze these options and even enjoy very decent gaming sessions in which we will also have the support of NVIDIA G-SYNC technology.
The battery is another noteworthy aspect: those 70 Whr will provide good battery life (up to 12.5 hours of video playback according to the manufacturer in the Intel variant, 15.5 hours in the AMD model). Fast charging also allows 50% of the battery to be recharged in just 30 minutes.
