Inside Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 (14) – disassembly and upgrade options

As we still wait for it to flood the market, the Yoga Slim 7 (14) is poising to become one of the best ultrabooks for the money.

1. Remove the bottom plate

When it comes to disassembling this notebook, Lenovo couldn’t have made it easier. There are 7 Torx-head screws you need to remove, and then you just have to pry the bottom panel away.


2. Battery

First, there is a 60.7Wh battery inside.


3. Memory and storage

As of the upgradability, you won’t be able to change the memory on your device. It comes in two variants, comprising either 8GB or 16GB of LPDDR4x memory modules, working at the blazingly quick 4266 MHz. And although we see two M.2 PCIe x4 slots, we learned from Lenovo’s official specs, that you can only use one at a time. Such a shame.


4. Cooling system

Cooling-wise, we see a single, thick heat pipe, leading to two heat spreaders. Furthermore, there are two relatively small-sized fans which blow the heat away.
