“That makes the Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition an excellent choice if you want a thin, portable Windows laptop that’s still versatile enough to handle productivity and entertainment with equal ease.”

“those willing to overlook the quirks will find a remarkably lightweight and slim device featuring a stunning 2K IPS touchscreen that looks fantastic and Dolby Atmos‑compatible speakers that sound just as good.”

“This would be a four-star review if Best Buy's $999.99 price had stuck, but even an added $300 doesn't wholly dampen our affection for the Yoga Slim 7i.”

“At $1,300, the Yoga Slim 9i isn’t a budget system, but it’s well priced given its overall performance, design, and usability.”
