style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I want to think that everyone who sees the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 will fall in love with its design. Namely, its gorgeous seashell-like exterior that Lenovo calls \u201cTidal Teal.\u201d Make something a beautiful color, and I\u2019m already in. But I realize not everyone will find this look attractive, so it\u2019s up for debate if this is your dream color or if unique laptop colors are even your thing.<\/p>\n<p>As for me, I love the shimmery teal, and my first impression was, \u201cIf it looks this good, how is it going to perform?!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the design (besides aesthetics) was pretty standard, but I noticed a couple of surprises. The first is that although this is a Yoga laptop, its screen only bends back to about 120 degrees or so. I had no way of using it like a tablet or folding it as I\u2019ve experienced with other Yoga models, like the Lenovo Yoga 9i 14 Gen 8 or the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i.<\/p>\n<p>The second surprise was the camera was invisible. I soon learned that this was because the Yoga Slim 9i Gen 10\u2019s camera is, according to Lenovo, the \u201cworld\u2019s first under-display camera\u201d on a laptop (I\u2019ll have much more to say about this later).<\/p>\n<p>Besides these oddities, the Yoga Slim 9i 14\u2019s design was predictable. The back cover has a large Lenovo logo, the top bezel houses the camera and the quad microphone system, and the keyboard and touchscreen are in their usual spots. The \u201cYoga\u201d logo is on the base of the laptop. In addition to the standard keyboard keys, the laptop has a fingerprint scanner, a Microsoft Copilot AI key, a smart key to bring up Lenovo Vantage, and two more customizable apps for shortcuts.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"two-ports-are-all-you-get\">\n            Two Ports Are All You Get<br \/>\n    <\/h3>\n<p>Since the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 is a slim, compact, and lightweight device, it makes sense that it doesn\u2019t come with many port options. Nonetheless, it will feel lacking if you work with many peripherals or need to plug in more than two items at a time. I use more than two ports often, so having only two USB-C ports at my disposal was disappointing.<\/p>\n<p>Since I still have many devices that are still USB-A, I had to purchase USB-C to USB-A adapters (a cheap fix) to use those devices, such as my Bluetooth mouse or specific charger cables. Considering I often deal with this issue when reviewing laptops, I should always have these on hand. However, the average laptop buyer might be a bit miffed when they realize they can\u2019t plug in USB-A devices without buying adapters to use on this USB-C-only device. That said, they are ThunderPort 4 ports!<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"fantastic-keyboard-touchpad-and-touchscreen\">\n                        Fantastic Keyboard, Touchpad, and Touchscreen<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The keyboard on the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i Gen 10 laptop.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_49_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_49_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 keyboard had a pleasant feel and took up about half the laptop\u2019s base, measuring about 11.5 by 4.13 inches. Its keys didn\u2019t feel loose like some laptop keyboards do, and I could type without making too many typos. That said, I do wish there was a slightly increased spring to it (as a personal preference), but it was sturdy, had adjustable backlighting, and gave me plenty of space to type comfortably.<\/p>\n<p>The precision touchpad, situated directly below the keyboard, had no buttons but a smooth glass surface that felt great to touch. The touchpad was ultra-responsive, and I made very few errors when scrolling, clicking, or pinching to zoom. Its size was a spacious 2.72 x 4.09 inches, giving me plenty of room to navigate.<\/p>\n<p>As for the touchscreen, I was pleased with its responsiveness and seemingly error-free processes when I tapped or scrolled. Even when I felt like I tapped the edge or corner of an app icon, it opened the one I had tapped on. And to my delight, the lag was barely there.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"a-beautiful-4k-oled-display\">\n                        A Beautiful 4K OLED Display<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i Gen 10 laptop playing &#039;Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.&#039;\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_844_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_844_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>With a 14-inch 4K (3,840 x 2,400) OLED display, the Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 makes streaming, gaming, and editing photos a pleasant experience. The laptop features X-Rite color calibration, PureSight Pro, and Display HDR True Black 600, which gave me a complete breadth of colors (including sRGB and Adobe RGB). Additionally, the Yoga Slim 9i had a minimal frame surrounding the display (Lenovo claims the display is 98%, the frame a mere 2%), making media feel less boxed in.<\/p>\n<p>The color contrast and saturation on the Yoga Slim 9i were incredibly immersive, offering me a realistic-looking stream when watching 4K videos. In an exotic bird video, I saw individual feathers on parrots pop with rich greens. Crisp, clear details at the laptop\u2019s max resolution made it easy to see the blue iris around a parrot\u2019s pupil and scratches on its red beak.<\/p>\n<p>Watching <em>Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes<\/em> showcased how well the display handled blacks and shadows. The fur on the apes was easily visible in darker scenes, and I never felt as though any shadowy CGI looked muddy or indistinguishable.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, while gaming, brilliant colors in games like <em>Avowed<\/em> popped off the screen, making me feel like I was in another world.<\/p>\n<p>The one downside to this marvelous display was the usual complaint with OLED screens. Because it\u2019s an OLED without an anti-glare coating, the glare was incredibly distracting in well-lit rooms or direct sunlight. Thankfully, the brightness levels (max 750 nits in HDR, 600 in SDR) made viewing the screen in any light easy, especially if I combated the glare by shutting curtains or angling the screen.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"the-intel-lunar-lake-cpu-and-ai-integration\">\n            The Intel Lunar Lake CPU and AI Integration<br \/>\n    <\/h3>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The Intel Core sticker on the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i Gen 10 laptop.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_614_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_614_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Like the recently reviewed ThinkPad X1 Carbon Aura Edition, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 uses the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V (eight cores, eight threads, and a 12MB cache). It\u2019s in Intel\u2019s Lunar Lake lineup for slim laptops.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the Ultra 7 258V\u2019s equal cores-to-threads ratio, I found it a top-tier performer for most computer tasks, including light photo editing in Photoshop, streaming music and videos, word processing, using an obscene number of browser tabs, downloading and playing PC games, and using Microsoft Copilot and other AI tools like ChatGPT and Grammarly.<\/p>\n<p>As for the AI features, the Yoga Slim 9i has incorporated Microsoft Copilot as an AI assistant, and several AI-driven features are buried in the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/apps.microsoft.com\/detail\/9wzdncrfj4mv?hl=en-US&amp;gl=US\">Lenovo Vantage app<\/a> (available on PC only). These include an Adaptive Power Mode that intelligently switches between different power modes based on your activity, an Eye Care Mode that automatically adjusts the screen\u2019s color temperature to prevent eye strain, Presence Detection (for securely locking your screen when you\u2019re away from the laptop), and Automatic mode selection that optimizes your device settings based on what you\u2019re doing.<\/p>\n<p>It also integrates Cocreator in Paint, automatic live captions on videos, and Windows Studio Effects in the camera.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"a-sleek-multitasking-powerhouse\">\n                        A Sleek Multitasking Powerhouse<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i Gen 10 laptop open on a desk.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_637_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_637_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Between the Yoga Slim 9i\u2019s Intel Core Ultra 7 258V Processor and its 32GB of RAM, there was precious little I couldn\u2019t achieve regarding daily computing and multitasking. I regularly had, at minimum, 15 browser tabs running while operating Photoshop, Xbox game downloads, Spotify, and YouTube. I typically also had ChatGPT and Copilot running in the background for any ideating or research I undertook.<\/p>\n<p>Switching between apps and browser tabs was speedy (with virtually no lag), and I didn\u2019t experience a single hiccup during my work shifts. Although I\u2019ve used CPUs with double the threads, the Yoga Slim 9i kept me perfectly happy, productive, and able to complete tasks promptly. Most professionals will find little qualm with this laptop\u2019s performance, even if they\u2019re used to slightly more powerful CPUs.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"light-casual-gaming-fun\">\n            Light Casual Gaming Fun<br \/>\n    <\/h3>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i Gen 10 laptop playing the game &#039;Lies of P.&#039;\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_492_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_492_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>While the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 isn\u2019t a gaming laptop, it performed moderately well for casual gaming. I wouldn\u2019t suggest it for competitive gaming, as I did experience some significant latency issues playing several titles. However, the latency I experienced wasn\u2019t so bad that I couldn\u2019t enjoy the gameplay for older titles at 1080P with medium to low settings.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t expect smooth-as-glass gameplay with the Intel Arc GPU. However, Intel\u2019s AI boost for gaming and other media did seem to make this combination more gamer-friendly than I\u2019ve experienced on different PCs with Intel Arc.<\/p>\n<p>I played a variety of games (titles such as <em>Lies of P<\/em>, <em>Avowed, <\/em>and smaller resource indies). Most of these played reasonably well on the Yoga Slim 9i with settings on low. The worst latency I saw was during character creation in <em>Avowed<\/em>, where rotating my character was so laggy it was painful (but this still didn\u2019t make me rage quit the game).<\/p>\n<p>In summary, this setup isn&#8217;t built for gaming, but you can get away with playing older titles at low to medium settings and still enjoy the experience.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"so-so-speakers-weird-camera-and-excellent-microphones\">\n                        So-So Speakers, Weird Camera, and Excellent Microphones<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The integrated camera on the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i Gn 10 laptop.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_453_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_453_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Where the Yoga Slim 9i fell the most short was in its speaker system and camera. Let me start by saying the speakers aren\u2019t terrible. They performed well until I tried to push the volume. The laptop features two two-watt tweeters and two three-watt woofers with Dolby Atmos, but they\u2019re all down-firing.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not typically a fan of laptops that don\u2019t have up-firing speakers because it can affect the audio quality by making the sound feel muted or boxy. Not to mention, squash the sound if you\u2019re using your laptop on your lap.<\/p>\n<p>At 60%, the speakers felt very loud to me, which is unusual since I\u2019m usually craning to hear videos at that level. My issue was that the speakers sounded boxy and muddy at 65% or higher volume (which was sometimes necessary for quieter media). All the balance flew out the window, with greater sibilance and slightly grating high tones from vocalists and guitars or spoken word.<\/p>\n<p>Around 50 to 60% was the sweet spot, where I noticed a nice balance of lows, mids, and highs (though still not nearly enough bass). For instance, songs like Anthony Green\u2019s <em>You\u2019ll Be Fine<\/em> sounded nice, with decent mids and highs, and Sleep Token\u2019s <em>Take Aim<\/em> sounded haunting and clear (though the down-firing speakers exaggerated the song\u2019s echoey sound). Meanwhile, the bass end sounded undermined and squashed on the song <em>Neon Brother<\/em> by the band Nothing But Thieves.<\/p>\n<p>These speakers perform well if you\u2019re okay listening at 50 to 60% volume. But at higher volumes, expect muddy tones and grating highs.<\/p>\n<p>As for the webcam, I wanted to love the under-display camera. It looks sleek, and I like that you can\u2019t even see it until turning the camera on. However, that\u2019s where my praise ends.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this was one of my worst webcam experiences, partially because Lenovo hypes it up with its 32MP resolution and innovative design. What I got were crisp-looking details obscured by an oddly grainy and pixelated appearance. The resolution looked good beneath all the pixelation, and I could tell the camera was trying. But it failed. It also took atrociously pixelated photos in both good and bad lighting scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>The quad microphone system does well with sound, even with noise cancelation\/audio enhancements turned off. I could hear my voice clearly in recordings (even with some intense background noise), and there were no glitches, choppiness, or squashed quality. I also had great experiences with the noise cancelation and audio enhancements, making these mics a thumbs-up.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"microphone-test-on-the-lenovo-yoga-slim-9i-14-gen-10-laptop-in-a-quiet-environment\">\n            Microphone Test On The Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 Laptop In A Quiet Environment<br \/>\n    <\/h3>\n<h3 id=\"microphone-test-on-the-lenovo-yoga-slim-9i-14-gen-10-laptop-in-a-noisy-environment\">\n            Microphone Test On The Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 Laptop In A Noisy Environment<br \/>\n    <\/h3>\n<h2 id=\"good-battery-life-and-charging-speed\">\n                        Good Battery Life and Charging Speed<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i Gen 10 laptop&#039;s 65W charger.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_56_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742578265_56_Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.jpg?resize=1200%2C675&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">Cianna Garrison \/ How-To Geek<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I was pleasantly surprised by the battery life on the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i, especially because the last Lunar Lake PC I reviewed (the aforementioned ThinkPad X1 Carbon Aura Edition) didn\u2019t deliver on the excellent battery life it was supposed to have). In this case, however, the Yoga Slim 9i\u2019s efficient CPU shone by providing me with an average battery drain of 0.2% per minute, which resulted in about 8 hours of battery life. That means Lenovo\u2019s benchmark of a 14.05-hour battery for web browsing at 150 nits was accurate (though I never had the screen that dim)!<\/p>\n<p>It also charged reasonably quickly, with a 0.72% per minute gain (with Rapid Charge enabled). That meant it took about two hours and 20 minutes to reach a full charge, which I was happy with considering that charge time gave me an 8-hour stint of no charging.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"should-you-buy-the-lenovo-yoga-slim-9i-14-gen-10-laptop\">\n                        Should You Buy the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10 Laptop?<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>For the price, you do get a lot of bang for your buck with the Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10. It\u2019s an excellent PC, especially if you\u2019re looking for something with a great battery life and powerful processing (with a shiny OLED to boot). Not to mention, if you&#8217;re considering a Yoga, you probably expect more flexibility, which this lacks. But if you want your laptop to have a decent integrated webcam, better speakers, and more ports, you may want to look elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Still, despite harping about its faults, I\u2019d be tempted to buy it just for the sweet color and multitasking power.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  tag large  no-badge  active-content                      \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"a39c-44d6-95b11c4c7d6a\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<div class=\"w-img \">\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  img-article-square\">\n<figure>\n<p>                <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"584\" height=\"584\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 laptop.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.png\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goodwriterz.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-9i-14-Gen-10-Laptop-Review-Speedy.png?resize=584%2C584&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"height:auto;max-width:100%\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \">\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\tLenovo Yoga Slim 9i 14 Gen 10<br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-description\">This iteration of the Yoga line of laptops integrates Copilot+ AI, a beautiful 4K OLED display, and an Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU for powerful computing for everyday users and professionals.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summary The Intel Core Ultra 7 GPU provides powerful multitasking power for most tasks.
