The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT0028FR) is currently showing in promotion at Lenovo France and offers a configuration/price ratio interesting for its category where it is one of the only ones to offer such a high definition screen with such faithful colors but also such a recent processor and Thunderbolt 4 connectors.

Chassis, connectors, screen of the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT0028FR)

It sports an elegant and understated appearance with its thin and light aluminum Cloud Gray light silver design.

This versatile Ultrabook is well equipped in terms of connectivity with its 2 USB-C Thunderbolt 4 (against 1 maximum usually), its Bluetooth 5.1 and Wi-Fi 6E ax wireless modules (newer and more efficient than Wi-Fi ac) to communicate and connect remotely, its audio port or its USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you connect a USB 3.0 device.

You can authenticate yourself biometrically by facial recognition via Windows Hello technology using the integrated infrared webcam.

The chiclet keyboard can of course be backlit, which is practical for better distinguishing its keys when the ambient light is reduced.

Thanks to its sRGB and IPS specifications, the screen displays more faithful colors than the average with important viewing angles, both horizontal and vertical. The screen will also be of interest to High Definition enthusiasts because it adopts a 2.2K definition higher than Full HD. Anti-reflective coating, the screen is also more readable in a bright environment (eg outside) than a shiny panel.

Performance, autonomy of the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT0028FR)

The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT0028FR) is a compact versatile laptop PC with high processor performance and multimedia orientation.

Thanks to the Intel hybrid processor Alder Lake-H Core i5-12500H and 16 GB of RAM, this laptop delivers solid general performance capable of satisfying a maximum of users.

This core notably guarantees much faster processing than a Quad/Hexa Core processor and 8 GB DDR4, the difference being particularly noticeable under demanding work in terms of CPU and RAM resources exploiting multicores – and therefore the 12 cores of the Alder Lake-H – like in photo editing or video editing.

No dedicated graphics card on board, however, which will divert players from this Ultrabook. However, subject to concessions such as a lowering of the definition of the screen, since 2.2K requires more graphic calculations than Full HD, we can indulge with this thin and light multimedia portable PC in modest games. And this thanks to the Intel Iris Xe graphics part integrated into the Core i5 Alder Lake-H.

On the storage side, there is an SSD that rivals the standard of hard drives in terms of capacity with its 512 GB while being silent, less energy-consuming, more robust and much faster.

Best known price: 899€

In practice, the SSD provides much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis than a simple hard drive. Thanks to the SSD, we obtain for example much faster multimedia processing as well as start / stop and software launches.

Of course, in case 512 GB is too tight, we can rely on an external storage unit such as a USB-C / USB 3.0 / Thunderbolt device to obtain fast transfers.

Finally, on the autonomy side, expect around 7 hours of battery operation in light use for this versatile multimedia-oriented High Definition aluminum Ultrabook, which should be expected to heat up and be heard when pushed hard (treatments) .

To contain the temperatures, one can use if necessary a ventilated support (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
