Hi hi thanks for this awesome video! i was wondering if the off centre keyboard (due to the media keys on the right) is bothersome at all?
I’m so glad u mentioned video editing
Another honest, unbiased review. Thanks!
Hi! Thanks for the nice review. I'd like to know which one is better in terms of overall performance and style- Lenovo Yoga 9i or Samsung Book 3 360 pro? Thank you.
Just wondering if heat will affect the speaker in the sound bar?
This is a beautiful laptop and just about perfect for normal use.. Nice review.
This was great. I just ordered mine & it's my first Lenovo. As someone who loves a 2-in-1 set-up, I think I will be good. I mostly do office work and internet searching. (BTW: thank you for highlighting what's best - higher or lower - when showing scores.)
Any updates on how it’s going?
Question -- you didn't mention anything about the reflectivity of the screen. Is it super shiney and reflects everything nearby or anti-reflective (matte) so you're not constantly seeing your own hands/face etc.
This device would be able to support how many external monitors through a thunderbolt docker? I would like to use 3 monitors!
I heard that using a docker to split video makes it a little more efficient and maybe possible, is that accurate? Tks!
Resolution QHD*
Would this laptop be good for music production with Ableton Live? I think Ableton uses a lot of single core CPU. What are your thoughts?
Nice review! I have quite sensitive eyes when it comes to reading on screens etc. In terms of giving the best experience for your eyes when reading etc., which of the two is the best, the 4K display with 60 hz or the 2.8K with 90 hz setting?
So if you got Gen 7 Yoga 9i this upgraded isn't really worth it?
Laptop primarily used for school
I just wish Lenovo starts using the higher end AMD Zen 3+ with RDNA 2 and Zen 4 with RDNA 3 iGPU on their higher end Ultrabooks which will give it similar or better CPU performance than P series Intel Processors while consuming less power and far superior integrated Graphics performance. As of now, Lenovo only has used 6000U/HS series Processors in their budget IdeaPad 5 Pro and Slim 7 series and in very limited numbers. Zen 4 based 7040HS APUs can very well fit in these kind of chassis, while providing better thermal, better performance at the wattage these laptops can handle and far superior integrated Graphics.
What about the keyboard? It doesn't have full size keys, does it? I'm trying to decide between the Yoga 9i 14 and the Asus ZenBook 14 Flip OLED. It looks like the keyboard is bigger and better on the Asus.
Tx dude this is a good review
The idea of having easy to set up portable dual monitors for work is amazing. A Little more processing power and would definitely bite the bullet and hit the “shut up and take my Money button
How much more do you need
Higher resolution will always be more appreciated due to higher Pixel Per Inch (PPI), a UHD on a 14-inch laptop is as crisp as a Retina Display, it makes no sense for you to say that it doesn't make sense, buying my first MacBook Air has made me realize that resolution does matters hugely when it comes to visual clarity wether you are working or content-consuming.
At first, I thought the same thing too.... but when I compared it side-to-side to my 1080p 240hz Asus ROG monitor and now I have been using my laptop more than I use my computer aside from gaming.
Hi. I haven't shopped for a laptop in feels like ages. I'm in need of a new one, and my sister's going to get whatever laptop I want. May I ask what the face recognition and fingerprint is for? Is it like the face recognition on the IPhone? I'm someone that enjoys putting in my password or PIN to get into my computer, so I'm wondering if the new laptops have changed that? I have an outdated really old Lenova Yoga 11th edition, so I don't know anything about the new laptops. Pretty much I'm looking for something I can use photoshop for creating templates as I'm my sister's personal assistant and we create yard signs for people (graduation etc). I need something that will run it smoothly, but I'd also like something that's decently fast and can run games like Sims 4 that I currently run on my 10 year old desktop that will soon be getting replaced with one of my sister's iMacs. Any suggestions would be great!
the not-rounded edges: true sometimes i dislike that a lot on a long session. good review, thank you!
love your all videos💖💖
Lenovo really needs to put those speakers on all of their Laptops. ThinkPads are great but they sound so awful!
not x1 extreme gen 5
What is a good 2 in 1 for video editing? Any recommendations?
The power button is where it is at so you can use it when it's in tablet configuration.
I have a 14in 7i which shares a lot of the design elements of the 9i, but with U-series processors instead of P-series, and a less impressive speaker array (but still pretty good as it has 4 drivers). It is an incredibly well built machine with a beautiful display and definitely worth looking into if the price of the 9i is a bit much to swallow.
Was looking at a nice 2-in-1 for school/art hobbies and after looking at all the recent prices I completely agree. Just got the yoga 7i 16" i5-1240P + 16gb DDR5 on sale for around $1150 CDN and I can say I'm extremely excited to get it delivered in about a week :). If the sale is still on I would definitely recommend the 7i over the 9i right now as you will most likely get the same, if not better specs(depends on your price range and deals) for a better price at the cost of the slightly better 9i screen and sound.
@@pablohefner1123 this is actually really good advice. My 2018 macbook air screen broke during finals week and have been on the edge on getting another mac considering how quickly the screen broke. But ive been eyeing the Yoga's/Thinkpads for school and that will last me awhile so I can take it into grad school after I graduate next year. I will definitely check out the 7i 16 now as I want that bigger screen
@Rey I am on the exact same boat,, had my Mac for about 7 years and I'm looking into either a Yoga or thinkpad for grad school. Really considering the 7i Yoga rn for $1200. Seems to be the best value for money out of all the laptops I've seen
I just Wonder if this laptop is enough for video creating??? Like adobe or YT, Capcut?
Which one is better in terms of value for money : Lenovo yoga 9i 2023 1360 p vs Dell inspiron 16 2 in 1 7630 2023 . Pls suggest me
This laptop was almost perfect, I just wish I could get the exact same thing with Ryzen (and USB4 must).
Hello, about a week ago I bought the Lenovo Yoga 9i gen 8 4K. And since I opened it, I have used it for basic purposes such as surfing the Internet and watching movies. But the problem I encountered is the battery, the full battery life on my computer is four hours with absolutely basic use. I checked online and according to tests that people have done, the battery should last 9.5-11 hours of work, which is very far from what happens on my computer. I contacted Lenovo's technical support and after a thorough examination they said that the battery is perfectly fine and there is no problem but it still feels very strange to me. If I wanted a computer most of the time I need to be connected to electricity, I would have already bought a stationary computer and not a laptop... I would appreciate your help, thanks.
Hello. What is the model number for this?
Its a 2 in 1, why wouldn't you review the tablet functions? How does it feel on the couch? How quick does it switch? What happens with the keyboard, etc...
Does the performane drop on battery?
this laptop has a clean design , so beautiful
Is this laptop available with a version of 32GB RAM?
I suggest that Bob doesnt sign that document before talking to his lawyer. Best he didnt have that stylus 😂
Is there any news on Asus X16 2023?
4k 60Hz and 2.8k 90Hz. Which one should I pick? Thx
What is the refresh rate for this model?
It would be nice to see 9i with AMD processor as well. This way you can gain more hours on battery. This year, AMD's mobile processors is beast. A mixture of performance and battery life.
Yeah really wonder why they didn't go for that.
@@ahsoka6807 Availability. Still wondering why there are no U processor laptops available in May 2023.
@@reallycarson Same dude, the only one they released was with the g14 model. Pretty sure they promised to release it a few months ago? If they're delaying the card like they are the chip is probably under whelming. I saw a review of the g14 with it and the results seem under whelming but at the same time i dont take it seriously because its gaming laptop and im more curious to how the card will effect the ultrabook market.
I guess they put the power button on the side to make it have a more tablet like experience (this has a 360 hinge after all), but then they put the fingerprint scanner on the keyboard deck... Should have just integrated it into the power button.
I use yoga 9i for my study of master degree and work in investment banking use
So is this the 2.8k OLED or the 4k?
Why isn’t Bob consulting with a legal aid before signing any document?
The battery life boost going from 12th to 13th gen is such a huge surprise when it seems like a minor upgrade on paper. Maybe intel played around with how they use the E cores and made use of them more
14th gen is supposed to be more power efficient
@@yusefcabrera 15 th gen is supposed to be more power efficient
@@andrewjazdzyk1215 16th gen is supposed to be more efficient
Actually Intel started to use hybrid designs lately (which came from ARM) for its EVO-certified CPUs.
17 gen will be energy inaficient
Can this be used to play the sims
That scenario of staring was so specific lol
I honestly think this design is somehow scalable. If Lenovo figures out how to scale this to say 16 inch screen size and a bit beefier chassis & specs (Like low variants of i5/i7 + RTX 4050 for entry level gaming), whilst keeping similar aesthetics, we might have a genuine Asus ROG Flow X16 competitor. Lenovo's own Legion Yoga :P
Im sure they can as they managed to fit a 1650 in the older yoga c940. really wanted an x16 alternative without the gamer feel to it
Yoga 7i
There are legion slim and Yoga Pro that capable in gaming but still in light weight. Dedicated GPU of course.
Lenovo used to make 15" Yogas back around 2015 when they first launched the convertible concept but the idea was eventually scrapped due to declining sales.
Another thing is for a big device with 16" touchscreen to have any decent battery, it absolutely needs a 15W U-CPU chip. They can go with 12700H + 4050 + 120Hz OLED sure but it will last 3h on charge and Yoga 9 is Lenovo's most premium range that promises at least 9h of battery life for all of their devices. So any H-CPU chip is a no-go which makes it a dealbreaker for power users who need CPU performance. That makes it an extreme niche product with very high development cost and not enought demand to make profit.
I first got the ROG Flow X16. Used for a while then got the Yoga 9i, kept that instead and gave the Flow X16 to my mom.
ASUS Zenbook 14X OLED (2023) VS Lenovo Yoga 9i (2023)...... Who's better?
So i was choosing between this and a Dell XPS Plus 13inch. I went with the DELL. I'll be honest the Yoga for me was way heavy, also the round edge made it hard to pick up on flat surfaces, it also reminded me of the iphone 11 corners but just giant. The one thing i do not like about the new dell i got is how sharp it is by the edge. 1st world problems.
so good love this laptop
can you charge from left and right usb connector?
Yup!
Im a little disappointed its not amd. Ive never had an amd laptop but Im leaning towards getting my first one
Really wish they would sell this with a Zen4 CPU and 32 GB RAM. Especially as this config is available on the much cheaper Slim 7 which is of similar formfactor.
Actually, Janus should also warn Bob to ask you not to forget your magnet-less pen, so you don't come back and stare at her again.
i use the pen inside my yoga i9 about 3-5 times a year. without it being on the laptop im most likely never gona use the pen. for this reason my next laptop will probably not be a lenova laptop. still if they brought it back and or improved battery life id think again. till then heres hoping.
I just got the i7 1260p on the Yoga 7i 16 in, and I am planning to replace my M1 Air with it. I don't know why but everything feels less snappy on the Yoga even though the processor has better benchmark results than the M1. And yes, I have it plugged it too. Everything is updated from Windows to driver, which makes me feel really weird on what's going on.
"windows"
@@FaridRudiansyahIt’s windows, i felt the same going back to a windows laptop coming from the M1 pro..still thinking if i should go back or not
Macbook air M2...safest
bro can you do HP NOTEBOOK G8 10 GEN
if it has fans it would have to be compared with the macbook pro
I have the 12th gen, while this laptop is beautifully made and feels sturdy and very functional and likeable to use, some things are just so annoying about it:
The pen is fast in some window apps and so laggy in others, I also had issue disconnecting the pen so it was replaced by Lenovo after a month. Definitely the rubbery feeling of the pen goes away once the pen and screen gets dirty it becomes more natural.
My keyboard would double type space and some other keys, I thought it's due to the layout but I had to send it for repair as it seemed it could be the motherboard since it would choose random keys to do that.
When I put the keyboard backlit setting to my preferred one, it resets without saving it for next time.
The power modes only let you do balanced, which I didn't manage to put other modes through command but it seems like might limit some functionality when tweaking for the fan.
The fan is mostly fine or off but I found if I reduced cpu to 91% instead of 100 it will shut the fan 90% of the time with no speed loss, so really not sure why they didn't optimize the power delivery.
Even though sent the laptop for repair after 2 months I can't seem to see a more beautiful laptop on the market I hope mine was just a bad apple.
thank you for sharing your experience!
Same problem with the backlight setting. Do your laptop also have some weird sound after turn it on ? And does the laptop always have a line mark after you put it in their sleeve ?
@@Lucas-rk3xx I'm not sure if I understand the sleeve question, but for the weird noise, yes it does it and so do most laptops; it's not a malfunction.
@@Waij13 I'm glad you found it useful
Hello i have the same model and same dissconnecting and jitter issue with pen. Did this problems solved after you changed the pen?. Im planning to change the pen aswell
I just ordered this computer on Amazon bc they have a 24% sale off on it…. So excited been needing a new chromebook for around two years now
This isn't a Chromebook.
one more: please not the pre-predecessor 14itl didnt have a sleeve so maybe thats why the pen was included in the actual laptop
Great video! I prefer Apple laptops, but that's just a personal opinion. I'm looking to get anytime soon a windows machine for emulation purposes and this one is beautiful lol
Any good place to get RAM sticks?
Maybe Bob, you and Janice just need a yoga session. Just bought this model today and am hoping that it's going to be a pleasure to use. I opted for this over the HP spectre 14 and hoping that I won't regret my decision.
Sad. If only this video included a timestamp. There's bound to be a new subscriber.
the 4 macro keys are useless compared to a dedicated home/end/pg up pg dn key, every heavy user knows
Ryzen version would be a home-run
Review the yoga 6 gen 8 !!!
Why? That refresh uses same design, same keyboard, same Panel and Ryzen 7030 series APU which is nothing but Ryzen 5000U series, based on Zen 3 and Vega Graphics, not even the last year's 6000 series with Zen 3 + and RDNA 2 graphics. Basically, it will be just a waist of time as you won't get anything new which you haven't seen in last 2 years.
@@123Suryasis okay so do you think that the ryzen 7730u model with the 1tb ssd and 16gb of ram is worth it at around $900 usd on sale?
@@ibrahimbrasha8002 Absolutely not. That is literally a refresh of this year's model with a Rebranded Ryzen 7 5825U, nothing else. Instead look for the Asus Zenbook 14 Flip Ryzen 6000H version. Last time I checked, it was around 1100-1200 USD in Amazon, Officedepot, microcenter with 6800H, 2.8K OLED Touch, 16gb lpddr5 6400 and 1tb gen4 SSD. That has USB4 as well, meaning compatibility with Thunderbolt accessories, including external gpu dock.
I would love for you to do a video about the dell 2023 refresh and the fact that the new XPS 17 with an RTX 4080 costs £4000… the same price as a scar 18 with an RTX 4090…
You know Bob and Janice? What a coincidence.
Wow they still didn't remove the useless side buttons on the keyboard.
I've had yoga 7 generation intel cpu for 6 years now. I really need an upgrade, dual core cpu cant handle browsing any more. Windows is getting fat.
Has anyone tried to play dead by daylight on this laptop using stream? If so, how is it?
I'm thinking about getting this or the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360. I'm kinda torn, this one seems a tiny bit more powerful, but I'm deep in the Samsung ecosystem, so the Book 3 seems a bit more desirable. I would mainly be using it for school and Photoshop/Lightroom, and maybe a tiny bit of Minecraft, so nothing too too heavy. I think the Book 3 makes the most sense, but I'm still not a 100 percent sure
I think Samsung has a lot of apps that make it easy to adjust to non-samsung devices (esp if theyre non apple)
@@teancoffee208 Yeah sure you can just download them, but when I already have a Samsung phone it just gonna work a bit better
If you want to take handwritten notes on the laptop for school, Samsung uses better stylus tech than Lenovo.
@@whenhen Yeah, and my phone also supports the s pen which makes it pretty convenient
WHY TOUCHPAD SO BIG ?
For this much money Im very happy that I chose the ROG Flow X16. Great battery life, 2in1, and a ryzen 7 rtx 3060 combo. Great for everything.
Have you tried to play dead by daylight on it?
@@kikikuropatwa1925 i havent tried that, but usually I play Gta V, BeamNG, Forza 5, Red Dead 2 and always have a constans 60 fps minimum on high/very high settings. Great machine
@@szadam0673 thank you so much! I was worried this laptop couldn’t handle it because it’s not built for gaming but you convinced me that it could!
@@kikikuropatwa1925 Glad I could help. At first I was hesitant about gaming performance too, but then I got it, and I was amused how well it handels big games. I even plug it into my 32" 2k monitor, no problem.

WHY AM I BEING A WEIRD MISOGYNIST TO JANIS????
music is little on the loud side. You might wanna turn it down a little. other than that good review
There’s no music in the video except for 20 seconds in the intro and 8 seconds on the outro lol
shout-out to Janice
I would never stare at Janice
got a lenovo yoga 9 the screen died after 4 month due to a manufacture defact in the hinge the warranty did cover it and the screen died again after 2 month sold it lost money on it never buying anything thats touch or likes yoga
dat metroid footage gets updoot
THanks!
youtubers creating farfetched/fake scenarios just to point out something that's remotely going to happen lol
Why not with AMD CPU... 😀👍
Regards from Europe from my channel 😀👍
that keyboard layout is so silly and a big dealbreaker for me
i like how he slammed toxic workplace feminism 😂
I get why, but no USB is disappointing. Apple pushed the trend in such a dumb direction.
hey man , any give away laptop , dying to play Hogwarts legacy
Fairly light for a laptop but not as a tablet.
Don’t be a Bob 😅
You didn't start the video with "So...". Disappointed
Forgive me !
Beautiful ? with those stickers ? Bottom intake for/with 10nm Intel chip ? Well it is not 2008 anymore .... Even base M2 can do the same performance with 1/5 of power consupmtion, and it is end of cycle, as M3 comes in couple months ... Hot / Ugly / Loud ....
I swore off Lenovo some years ago. Nearly every laptop I had ever owned died too early. I must thank them, as that, along with W8, pushed me to Macs, and that is where I remain. The reality is that the best ultrabooks are made by Apple, full stop. Unless you need the convertible take, then buy a MacBook; but even then, a MacBook and a tablet would serve you better.
Yes but Apples are way more expensive (just for the hardware alone), not even including MS Office suite (because nobody uses apple’s products) and they aren’t touch screen! I like apple, but they simply cost too!
@@vr4892 True, Apple is a premium seller; you have to pay the Apple tax to enter.
