A:AnswerHey, bhei. For your first question, the device you receive has the month and year of manufacture on the bottom of the laptop. It should show it was made in 2024. Second, yes, the included power adapter will support 100-240V. Last, to be transparent as much as possible, there are two differences between the two Yoga 9i models offered at Best Buy, with the first being the amount of memory featured with the model your questions are attached being 16GB vs. 32, along with the higher tier model having a 4K/60Hz refresh rate OLED display. The 2.8K display model has a few low-star reviews attributed to user issues that should be addressed with system updates, and it is possible this hasn't translated to the other model due to those updates being installed upon setup. Hope this helps!
A:AnswerHi there, thank you for your question. We recommend reaching out to Lenovo Support here: 877-453-6686, for assistance. Once given a proof of purchase, the Support team will then be able to set your manufacturer warranty start date to align with the date of purchase and the length of coverage to its original duration.
A:AnswerHi, Angel, sorry for any confusion on this. To access the USB-C charging port, gently pull on the tab at the end of the pen (near the Lenovo logo), and the tethered tab should be able to be moved aside to charge the pen.
A:AnswerHi, Nathan. The included pen is the Lenovo Slim Pen, which can be magnetically adhered to the front cover of your Yoga 9i, just below the top notch or camera bump. If you're using the Precision Pen 3, it cannot be stored inside the device or adhere to it in any way.
A:AnswerHi, rfw. There are quite a few differences between the Yoga 9i and Yoga 7i 14 2-in-1 devices. For a visual of such differences, here's a link to a Best Buy webpage that compares the two models: (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/compare?skus=6571368,6571371). These differences include an elevated design with the Yoga 9i, a sharper, brighter, OLED display, improved system performance thanks to a more robust processor and improved graphics processing. The Yoga 9i also features an included, magnetic-attaching pen and sleeve in the box. Hopefully this helps!
A:AnswerHi, Cliff. If your Yoga 9i is using the latest Windows 11 version available, along with the latest Bluetooth driver update, the system should support Auracast, but it can depend on the devices you plan to use. Some users find the highest success using an Auracast dongle.
A:AnswerHey, Heena. It is normal for the Lenovo Slim Pen to not show any indication of charging visually on the pen itself. From completely depleted to fully charged using the included power adapter for the Yoga 9i, it should charge in about an hour. You can check the charge level in the Lenovo Pen Settings app, or you could enable pen battery percentage to be shown in the taskbar via the Pen Settings app.
