A:AnswerHey Octy,
Generally, there is some form of "click" as physical feedback when pressing the power button with the laptop.

A:AnswerI tried using my stylus on it but it didn't work. Obviously I don't have every stylus out there. I think the screen might only be made for the fingertips.

The Yoga Slim 7i 15 Aura Edition does not feature a microSD or card reader; although, you can use a microSD/SD card to USB-A /USB-C adapter should you desire.

A:AnswerHi Hanako,
You can expand storage by swapping out the existing 1TB drive. The system should support up to 4TB if you're using a single sided M.2 2242 SSD.
Let us know if you have any other questions!
A:AnswerHey fishjohnson,
This Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition should work quite well for you and your use. The architecture of the Ultra 7 and super quick 32GB of memory will help dramatically with multitasking, even with applications like the ones you mentioned. Also, the optimized AI performance will help cut down editing and rendering times.
A:AnswerHi, Iconicwarrior64. With processing speed and memory, this Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition checks the right boxes for your use, but due to the graphic demands of AutoCAD and SOLIDWORKS, we recommend considering a device that it designed and optimized for performance in mind. With that being said, based off regular item price, we would recommend two options. Option A is designed for gaming with unbridled performance capabilities. This would be great to grow with you as your engineering needs may change throughout your college career. Meet the Legion 7i 16:(https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-legion-7i-16-gaming-laptop-wqxga-intel-14th-gen-core-i9-with-32gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4070-8gb-1tb-ssd-glacier-white/6575387.p?skuId=6575387). Option B is a bit thinner and lighter than the Legion 7 16, and while it may not have as powerful of a processor or as much graphics memory as the RTX 4070 in the Leigon 7, may users in the same field as you have found success with it -- the Yoga Pro 9i (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-yoga-pro-9i-16-3-2k-touchscreen-laptop-intel-core-ultra-9-185h-with-32gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4050-1tb-ssd-luna-grey/6571367.p?skuId=6571367). Also to help you understand what you may need in a computer that will fit your needs, we recommend reviewing the system requirements shared by AutoCAD and SOLIDWORKS on their websites, then comparing it with the specifications of any computer you’re interested in to help ensure you find the right fit for you. Feel free to share any other questions and hopefully this helps!
