Lenovo Yoga Slim 6i (14, Gen 8, 14IAP8) review – thin and light machine with Alder Lake P-series CPU options
Performance: CPU, GPU, Gaming Tests
CPU options
You can choose between two CPUs – Intel Core i5-1240P and Core i7-1260P. They have equal core count but the latter has a larger cache size and higher core clocks.
Results are from the Cinebench R23 CPU test (the higher the score, the better)
GPU options
Expectedly, there aren’t any dGPUs here. The iGPU variants are the Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 (80EU) and the Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 (96EU). By default, the iGPU of the Intel Core i5-1240P iGPU is the Iris Xe Graphics G7 (80EU) but interestingly, the Core i5 in our machine is configured with the 96EU version of the integrated graphics. This is a curious case and we don’t have any info if it’s an isolated phenomenon regarding our device (which is a retail laptop) or if it applies to all other notebooks from the same series.
The results are from 3DMark Time Spy (Graphics). Higher is better.
Results are from 3DMark Fire Strike (Graphics) benchmark (higher the score, the better)
The results are from 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Unlimited. Higher is better.
Results are from the Unigine Superposition benchmark (higher the score, the better)
Gaming tests
| CS:GO | HD 1080p, Low (Check settings) | HD 1080p, Medium (Check settings) | HD 1080p, MAX (Check settings) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average FPS | 159 fps | 121 fps | 78 fps |
| DOTA 2 | HD 1080p, Low (Check settings) | HD 1080p, Normal (Check settings) | HD 1080p, High (Check settings) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average FPS | 162 fps | 101 fps | 58 fps |
The Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 (96EU) is fast enough for light games such as CS:GO and Dota 2.

Great review. There are not that many available for this particular laptop version. Thanks!
Can confirm gpu-z shows 96eu igpu on the 1240p model.
But 80 in Hwinfo, so prob just gpu-z bug.
Hi Lukas,
are you happy with the laptop? how are thermals, fans loudness, battery life? Do hinges feel stable?
Thanks in advance
Always love your detailed reviews, thanks
Shit. No touch screen, no 360 degree
