The extra speed and ram - worth the price !

I had a Yoga 7i laptop/notebook, and because it has two hinges - so it could flip all the way around - one of the hinges broke which connects to the monitor.
Rather than have it sent out and returned - the weak hinge issue would still be there.
So I upgraded to the Yoga Pro 91 with double the ram and - I'm so glad I did. Being just the laptop there isn't a hinge issue and the extra ram allows me to have multiple windows open and plenty of RAM (32) so that there is more speed in uploading and saving in the the Yoga 7i.
The 9i speed in copying files to and from my external HD is much faster also.
The Dolby sound and displa y are better also.
I have had this for 3 weeks now and couldn't be happier.
I also had the Geek Squad transfer the files from the 7i to the 9i and they did a great job in record time !
------------------------------
As others mentioned - the battery life when disconnected is about a couple of hours, but I do not do that too often so it is not a big deal for me.
The Geek Squad also told me not to leave it plugged in all the time, as it needs to cycle down periodically in order to extend the battery's lifetime.
That, I did not know. Thank you Ms. Geek for your invaluable advice!

I recently purchased a new Lenovo laptop and couldn't be happier with the decision. Right out of the box, it impressed me with its sleek design and solid build quality. But what really stands out is the speed and performance — this thing flies! Whether I’m multitasking with multiple browser tabs, streaming music, or working on documents, everything runs incredibly smooth with zero lag.
The features included are also top-notch. I really appreciate the thoughtful details like the responsive keyboard, crisp display, and versatile connectivity options. It’s clear that Lenovo put a lot of care into making this a high-quality, user-friendly machine.
Overall, this laptop has exceeded my expectations in every way. It's a fantastic investment, and I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a fast, reliable, and feature-rich device.

This is a powerful machine with robust performance. I required 32GB of RAM, and it met my needs perfectly. However, it consumes battery quickly, so keep it near a power source. Fortunately, it recharges rapidly, and battery life wasn’t a major concern for me. Its large size reduces portability. I recommend it if you prioritize speed and a big screen. The build quality is solid but doesn’t quite match Dell, Microsoft, or Apple standards.

Love my Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i!!

I love my Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i laptop!!! It is all and more than the reviews on Youtube from @JustJoshTech and @AndrewMarcDavid said about it, they gave it very high ratings.
I am particular and did a ton of research before purchasing, made multiple trips to see all my options before going with the Yoga Pro 9i. I use it for general computing, coding, technical work including WSL etc.
The aluminum chassis is solid in the hands and has an extremely high build quality. The screen is excellent, keyboard and touchpad are responsive, quiet, accurate and smooth. Oh and the speakers sound amazing!!
The Intel Core Ultra 9 185H processer takes everything in stride and having the NVIDIA RTX 4050 is nice though I don't use it's power too often with my use case.
The thermals are excellent, you rarely hear the fans and when you do they are very subtle. The surface temperature on the keyboard deck is cool to the touch, the underside of the laptop also stays cool. With a task like installing software, the fans will kick on and subside once done. In Lenovo Vantage software I set cooling to the Adaptive Power mode and Windows on Balanced Power mode.
Good things to know are it is a 16" laptop and not the lightest but a nice thin form factor, making it easy to travel with. I have a 2024 16" Dell XPS work laptop and they are very similar with size and weight.
The battery is good and with appropriate settings can last between 5-6 hours. Considering the hardware, I think it is fair but this is one area that could be improved in my opinion. I highly recommend the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i!!

Battery is kinda meh

After upgrading from my old laptop of 10 years this was a pretty huge jump. Finally. After millennia, I can open Minecraft and a design software without the fans kicking into high gear and sounding like a jet engine about to explode.
The screen is really bright and the audio crisp. I can actually see what I'm working with. But then again, I have been living in a cave for the past decade. It's sleek and lightweight, making it extremely portable despite its size.
My only real beef is the battery. It dies as soon as I open a simple game or design program for too long. You have to plug it in almost immediately or else it'll shoot to zero as soon as you turn away. I mean you get what you paid for and it's not a PC so the limitations are understandable. But I would get the battery swapped before the warranty is over and extend said warranty just in case.

Hi JeanneW, thanks for choosing Lenovo! Regarding battery life, that are many factors that determines how long before you have to plug in your laptop again, but in system like this, that can increase even more due to their high-powered processors and graphics cards. If you want to squeeze out more battery life and are completing non-intensive graphics tasks, we recommend taking advantage of the keyboard shortcut, Fn + Q to toggle thermal modes and easily switch between prioritizing battery life or power, or even the best of both words, along with custom settings configurable in Lenovo Vantage. You could also press the Fn + R key combo to toggle to a lower refresh rate for even more power conservation. We're glad to hear that your Yoga Pro 9i has been good for you overall, and we appreciate you sharing your feedback with us.

A Great Laptop with One Big Flaw

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
It’s a really good laptop with a sleek design. I love the touchscreen, though it’s not very sensitive. It doesn’t support rotation or a stylus, which I find a bit disappointing. On the plus side, I love the keyboard—it comes with a full standard layout, including a number pad on the right, which is super convenient. The trackpad also feels great. It’s not super premium, but it definitely gets the job done well.
As for the speakers, there’s nothing too special to mention—they’re pretty standard. One of the drawbacks, however, is the hinge. When you open or close the laptop, it makes some noises, and I’m fairly certain that over time—maybe within a year—you’ll run into problems with it.
I’d still recommend this laptop if you can grab it on sale, like I did. But at the full price of $1,700, it might not be worth it. If Lenovo fixes the hinge issue, I honestly think this could be one of the best laptops on the market.

I returned my brand new 4tb macbook pro and decided to try the Lenova Yoga Pro 9i and for my computer use it was a great decision to put some money back in my pocket. Great screen, awesome top mounted speakers with a great sound not as good as that macs but it wasn't too far off. Gaming is decent i could play madden but it wasn't as smooth as my ps5 but it was decent. I would advise a Xbox or Pc controller for smoother use. Also windows over Mac buy yards in app available and user ability xbox game play is a big plus. Copilot full use should had been included with it since its a newer device and battery life for streaming and game play was med at best so keep that charger handy. Overall this would be a 5 star rating because against a mac with similar specs it can hold its own, as long as its plugged in.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback and experience with us. Should you wish to learn more about ways to extend your battery life, here's some more info: By default, the system will tend to give more speed when needed, which can sacrifice battery life. If you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend users utilize the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance.

This is the best laptop I've ever owned! If you're looking for all-in-one, I know how difficult that can be. I always wanted a laptop that gives me the option to choose performance when I need it, and if I want battery life then I can choose that as well. It seems like most laptops don't give you the option to choose. Well look no further. I'm so impressed with this CPU and how it learns from your usage. In one of the photos I provided, it shows the CPU's speed at 1.72GHz and that's with VSCode open. I code and perform continuous low demand tasks throughout the day and I'm easily making it throughout the whole day. I think the best so far is 11 hours of continuous power consumption with obvious breaks in between. When I say continuous, I mean I put the laptop to sleep by just closing the lid. Not once have I felt even a twinge of buyer's remorse. I have not needed the dedicated GPU yet, but you can watch benchmark and video game tests on YouTube and they're running Cyberpunk @ 60 fps. Absolutely nuts. I will recommend this laptop to anyone.

I bought this laptop on a sale and got a great price. It's fast, the screen is bright and brings a lot of detail when I use Photoshop. Before I ordered it, I read some criticism of the speakers. I think they're great and have a lot more bass than my old Yoga 920-13IBK. The battery holds up better than I expected. The storage is more than enough for me and the fact that it has multiple inputs is pleasing. My older Lenovo only has 4 inputs, so I had to get a hub for it. Overall, it was a great choice.
However, the delivery was something else. I ordered it on Saturday November 30th. Initially it was stated to be delivered by Wednesday December 4th. I didn't get it until Sunday December 8th. Between Best Buy and FedEx This was one of the worst delivery experiences I've ever had. If I had ordered it on Amazon, I would have gotten it in 48-72 hours. Best buy had it in Nichols, NY which is about a 7–8-hour trip from Wilmington, DE where I live. FedEx didn't really get it until Friday the 6th. It took them about 48 hours to actually get it to my door. Plus, the guy delivering it tossed it onto my front porch. Fortunately, it was well cushioned.
Overall, the laptop is fantastic, the delivery process was abysmal.

Best laptop I’ve ever owned. I love the convenience of the touchscreen and how capable the processor is. I’ve played Sims 4, League of Legends, inzoi, etc. it’s just a bit big and heavy for class…. like I wish it was a little bit smaller—like almost slightly bigger than an iPad, but that’s OK that it’s not. It’s capable and it’s got a camera and it works really nice and I can play all my games on it and I can take pictures and do video call. I play Sims four, League of Legends and I NZOI.
