Lenovo Yoga 7i (14″, 2023) review – capable and stable convertible
The Yoga 7 is one of Lenovo’s premium series, which still remains relatively affordable. These devices have always excelled in their value, which made them a better choice than the Yoga 9 for example.
This year, the Lenovo Yoga 7i (14″, 2023), comes with Intel’s U, and P-series Raptor Lake processors. In addition to that, they are part of the Evo platform, which is some sort of a guarantee that you’re security, stability, and performance will be on point.
Unlike many other “Yoga” devices, this one is indeed a convertible. Its hinges allow you to use the machine as a tablet – one of the more powerful ones.
Not to mention the fact that you have a choice of one IPS and two OLED displays. We would personally go for one of the latter options. The main difference between them is that one has a 1920×1200 resolution and 60Hz refresh rate, while the other has a resolution of 2880×1800 and refreshes at 90Hz.
