Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro X (14″, 2022) review – compact and surprisingly powerful
Today we’re going to review the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro X (14″, 2022) and since we have an article regarding the Intel-based sibling it’ll be interesting to see differences between the two devices since they look 99% percent identical from the outside.
In short, in front of us is a compact laptop with a high-res 13.5-inch display, capable hardware under the hood, and a decently big battery. Sounds like a good combination for multipurpose loads – this machine can be a daily driver, you can use it as an office device, or for some light gaming after work. Yep, even the integrated AMD Radeon 680M is powerful enough for titles like Cyberpunk 2077 on Low settings. If you need more graphics power, there are some dedicated NVIDIA GPUs available for configuring as well.
The dGPUs sound like a good pair for the 120Hz 16:10 display with a 3072 x 1920 resolution – this is a good combination for content creation. The CPU front is represented by Zen 3+ processors and we all know that these chips are very efficient but in terms of raw power, the Intel version of this laptop has Intel Alder Lake-H chips that are for sure more powerful but we’ll talk more about that further in the review. Let’s see how this little fella will perform when we pound it with some serious load.

What’s in the box?
When you open the package, you’ll see that the laptop is placed in another smaller box inside of the bigger one and that’s good additional protection. The rest is standard – some manuals and a 100W USB Type-C charger.
