◆Yoga Slim 9i(14',10)
The Yoga Slim 9i (14', 10) is the world's first laptop with a camera embedded under the display panel, and its 14-inch organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 (4K) and a refresh rate of 120Hz.



By embedding the camera under the panel, the Yoga Slim 9i (14', 10) achieves a screen-to-body ratio of 98%, which Lenovo claims 'gives the impression that the screen is larger than a typical 14-inch laptop.'

9To5Google, a foreign media outlet that actually tested the Yoga Slim 9i (14', 10), commented, 'The camera itself isn't particularly high quality, but it's a very clever way to hide a camera that isn't used all the time under the display panel. The camera is so cleverly embedded in the display panel that you barely notice it's there.'



The Yoga Slim 9i (14', 10) is scheduled to be released in February 2025, priced at $1,849 (approximately 292,000 yen).

◆Yoga Book 9i(14',10)
The Yoga Book 9i (14', 10), the successor to the

Yoga Book 9i released in December 2023, is a notebook PC equipped with two 14-inch OLEDs with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 (2.8K) and a refresh rate of 120Hz. It can be used in a variety of ways, such as using it like a notebook PC with the included keyboard or as a dual-screen tablet. The Yoga Book 9i (14', 10) has an upgraded processor from the previous Yoga Book 9i to the Core Ultra 7 255H.



The Yoga Book 9i (14', 10) is scheduled to be released in May 2025, priced at $1,999 (approximately 315,000 yen).

In addition, Lenovo has announced the Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition (14', 10), which uses a Core Ultra 200V processor to support Copilot+ PCs and has a hinge that rotates 360 degrees to be used as a tablet, the Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition (14', 10) , which is also compatible with Copilot+ PCs, as well as the Yoga 7i 2-in-1 (16', 10) and Yoga 7i 2-in-1 (14', 10) .
