Lenovo Yoga Book 9 (13IRU8) review – behold the king of all 2-in-1 laptops is here!


The 2-in-1 laptops are meant for people who want to be different and own a multipurpose device that can transform into a tablet within a second. Portability, power, and battery life are also important for buyers because very often, these devices are used for office or content creation needs.

If you want to stand out among the other people around you (and if money isn’t a problem) the Lenovo Yoga Book 9 (13IRU8) is a device that has a unique visual appearance thanks to its two OLED touchscreen displays for productivity boost. Yes, you heard it right, this machine lacks a built-in keyboard and touchpad but you can use them virtually on the second panel if you want. Lenovo has also provided some additional gadgets in the box if you prefer to operate with this extraordinary machine as a normal laptop but we’ll talk about this in a minute.

Lenovo Yoga Book 9 (13IRU8) can be used by everyone – people in the office will value its multitasking abilities thanks to the two touch panels, you can also have fun playing games on the main screen and watch videos on the second panel (or you can also use both screens for gaming which is super cool), and daily tasks such as watching videos and checking your email look way more fun when you can utilize both screens at the same time for these home “duties”.

Hardware-wise, the device relies on the Raptor Lake-U series CPUs which is the right choice for a transformer like this one (well, a 28W P processor is too much in terms of heat dissipation for a notebook that has a display above its motherboard). The gadget is also configured with a fast LPDDR5x RAM and it has a Gen 4 SSD under the hood. We tested the performance of the laptop and its features, and now we are impatient to share with you all the info we gathered. Let’s go!
