Verdict

It seems that the Lenovo Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro X (14″, 2022) is a very special device. It’s a multipurpose small “monster” – it has enough CPU power thanks to the efficient AMD Zen 3+ processors. Sure, these aren’t as powerful as the Alder Lake-H chips that can be found in the Intel iteration of the laptop but the overall performance is good and the notebook is always snappy. On the other hand the iGPU is much much better compared to the Intel integrated offerings.

Thermals are just good – the CPU temperatures are always in check and the frequencies are higher that the base clock of the processor. This is possible because the cooling solution is beefy and it’s doing its job well no matter the load. You can use the device for video editing or even for content creation – it has enough power under the hood and the hardware will not throttle. The noise levels are okay even during heavy stress and in normal usage it’ll be hard for you to hear any noise coming from the two fans.

Speaking of content creation, the hi-res 120Hz display (BOE NE145F8M-N61 (BOEAA8)) is just great, it covers 94% of the sRGB gamma and the color accuracy reaches an average dE value of just 0.8 with our Gaming and Web design profile. This means you can use the notebook for color-related work as well.

The build quality of the machine is solid – the design looks modern with these round edges, and the all-aluminum chassis is sturdy – there is almost zero flex around the keyboard area even when you type harshly. Speaking of the keyboard, this one is great for typing and it also has a backlight. The touchpad isn’t lacking behind – it has a glass surface, and it’s fast and smooth.

Now, the memory is soldered which is a typical scenario when it comes to compact devices. On the other hand, the maximum possible amount of RAM is 32GB of LPDDR5 which sounds feature-proof.

We were presently surprised by the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 ProX. It offers better cooling performance than the Intel version, the build quality is great, the keyboard is comfortable for typing, the performance is always there when you need it, and the display is a small gem for any kind of usage. Oh, yes, and the iGPU is crazy fast for an integrated solution.
