Failed after 30 days.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So disappointed. I hardly had this laptop for a month before it failed the first time. Lenovo was helpful in getting the system board replaced. That repair lasted about a week. But the laptop was still under warranty and they again repaired it. So first the three months of owning this laptop, I couldn't use it for about 60 days because it was out of action. It has been working well since the initial failures.

Posted .We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Lenovo Yoga 9i 15 model number 82DE0009US. Since the failure happened twice, in rapid succession, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.
Don't waster your money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used the computer for 43 days, did a factory reset to return it and computer would not turn on. Best buy made me use my 400 protection plan in order to return it. Don't buy this garbage. Very disappointed with best buy making me waste 400 dollars and Lenovo being garbage.

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This computer has been a nightmare! It goes to sleep when you close the lid and then is unresponsive when you open back up. No matter what you do, it won't turn on. Lenovo's support has been less than stellar as well. $2000.00 for a laptop that doesn't work a month and a half after I bought it.

Posted .We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Lenovo Yoga 9i 15. Resetting this computer back to original factory settings may correct the issue you are having with the screen. This system is equipped with OneKey Recovery System. There is a very small pin hole on the bottom right side of the device, right near the top right corner of the cooling vent on the bottom of the device. You will need a pin to push this reset button. Plug the device in. Let the battery charge for about 15 minutes. Push the reset button. The system should boot to a choice screen where you can choose Restore To Factory Default. Select this. It will delete everything from the hard drive except the original factory install of the operating system. You will need to reinstall all programs and files after the reset. If you don't have copies of the files, try to make one before you restore by selecting Boot to desktop and trying to back up your files. Concerning the issue you mention about charging your Yoga 9i 15, check to see that you have the Battery Conservation Mode turned off within your device power settings. You can access this Battery Conservation Mode within the Lenovo Vantage Software installed on this computer. This Conservation Mode should only be used if you leave your computer plugged in all of the time. It will extend the life of the battery by only charging the battery to 60 percent capacity. If the issues continue after the factory reset, we recommend you contact Lenovo Premium Care for additional help at: 888-278-9707.
This computer was awful
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This computer was awful. We kept bringing it into the geek squad to try to see why it only had intermittent power and never was able to figure out why. Just returned it to the store for a different laptop.

All around amazing PC laptop
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this laptop due to its large screen, NVIDIA, 2-1 features and the amount of storage. I went to best buy knowing I was going to get a Lenovo and this one was one of the best in the line up. I was between a macbook and this originally but I can just do so much more with a PC. I did look at other PC laptops but nothing really compared to this laptop. It feels expensive and looks expensive. I love the light up key function and how you can change it to be more dim or brighter. I mainly use this computer to game and do college coursework and it is amazing. I play COD BO4, DBD and GTA 5. Coming from console gaming I will honestly never go back and this is not even the highest level of gaming laptops. I love how I can flip the key board out of sight so when I play it is just the screen. The only thing is it can be a bit noisy with the fan. You also can put it on quiet mode, but with the graphics it is running I can't really complain. Sound and video quality is amazing. I have had no issues, highly recommend.

Overheating, fan issues, and terrible pencil
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked the Lenovo Yoga 9i when I first bought it. It's a beautiful looking laptop and you can fold back the screen to use as a tablet. One of the selling points for me was the pen that came with it. It slides into an opening on the side when not in use and I can use it to draw or take notes with my laptop/tablet combo machine. ut then pen is well-designed. It is not long enough to hold comfortably and its odd squarish shape is also uncomfortable unlike the smooth round cylindrical shape of a regular pencil or pen. But the biggest aggravation with this laptop is its tendency to overheat and cause the fans to go into overdrive. I don't think it's designed well to dissipate heat. Open up a couple of browser windows with video and the fans start to make a rattling sound. It gets pretty loud. Search online for Lenovo Yoga fan sound and a bunch of links will show up. So it's not an unknown issue and has been going on for a while with the Yoga series. I have never had a laptop with this issue before. This laptop is on the higher end of the price scale. I don't feel like I got my money's worth with this long-running issue. I highly suggest getting something else. If you want to draw, Apple tablet and Pencil is the best option imho.
