Lenovo debuted its iconic 360-degree flexible hinge design on the world’s first multi-mode Yoga 2-in-1 laptop at CES® ten years ago, and it revolutionized the industry. Designed for versatility and portability as users flip-and-fold from work to play, the exquisite style of Lenovo Yoga continues to delight. Now, more than a decade later, the Yoga spans and expands beyond form factors, offering daring innovation and precise craftsmanship to users in a world where they can work, learn, and play from anywhere.
Lenovo, the world leader in PCs1, introduced its seventh generation of Yoga 2-in-1 laptops, which include the Lenovo Yoga 9i, a 14-inch premium convertible laptop, the ultra-portable Yoga 7i in 14-inch and 16-inch, and the 13-inch eco-friendly Yoga 6 constructed with recycled materials. Lenovo also launched three new Q-series consumer monitors at CES this year, the Lenovo Q27h-20, Lenovo Q27q-20, and Lenovo Q24i-20, that flawlessly mix elegance and functionality.
Whether consumers require a fully-equipped multimedia experience while playing, learning, binge-watching shows, paying bills, or creating content with robust Windows 11 performance, Lenovo’s current collection of PCs has them all covered. With integrated smart capabilities like Show Mode for PC2 from Alexa®, another Lenovo first, the new Yoga PCs can even remind people of what’s on their shopping list while they’re headed out. This year’s highlight for the Yoga portfolio is the launch of Lenovo’s innovative CO2 Offset Service, which will now allow consumers, not just businesses, to offset the environmental impacts of their Lenovo YogaPC and contribute to a more sustainable future.
Lenovo looks to the future by giving its consumer design language a sleek update as we commemorate the 10th anniversary of a true original that turned personal computing on its head. Yoga’s minimalist-meets-luxury style represents a dramatic change towards humanised forms and expressive aesthetics, delivering a bespoke modern experience. This visually-uniquestyle doesn’t cut corners with its new vertically-flipped brand treatment; instead, it rounds them into comfortably-curved edges and ushers in a gender-neutral colour palette, more recycled materials, and luxury finishes. Lenovo’s aim of pioneering and delivering ‘s marter tech for all’ – with an emphasis on sustainable and inclusive design – remains unwaveringly positive about prospering in the next reality.
Lenovo releases a new class of Yoga 2-in-1s with smarter technology built-in every year to deliver the immersive experiences people need to improve their workday and free time, and this year is no different. Prepare for the new Yoga 9i convertible (14″, 7) with Windows 11 and the optimised responsiveness of up to a 12th Gen Intel® CoreTM i7-1260P CPU with Intel Iris® Xe graphics to give outstanding performance where you need it most. Experience the real-world performance you need for your biggest breakthroughs on one of Lenovo’s thin, light, and fast convertible laptops that are co-engineered with Intel and verified via the Intel EvoTM platform3 to deliver a super-fast boot up from virtually anywhere you use your laptop, from streaming to browsing to photo and video editing and more.
The premium Yoga 9i is more than simply a multi-modal laptop that converts to tablet mode and back, it also offers an improved audio experience with a loudness factor of 64 percent higher than the previous model. With an upgraded Rotating Sound Bar with quad Bowers & Wilkins® speakers on the top and sides for realistic acoustics and Dolby Atmos® immersive sound, you can watch movies and listen to music with the audio the artist intended. Enjoy the brilliance of a 4K OLED IPS touchscreen with low bezels that is also VESA®DisplayHDRTM 500 True Black certified for 100% DCI-P3 colour accuracy and Dolby Vision® optimised. It has a 16:10 aspect ratio for reduced scrolling and a 60Hz refresh rate for everyday use. It comes in 16:10 format for less scrolling and a 60Hz refresh rate for everyday computing. The TÜV Low Blue Light certification means it’s specially calibrated to help reduce eye strain.
The most significant update to the Yoga 9i may be the most subtle. This convertible also brings productivity innovations to the market, including easier one-handed opening for multitasking convenience and an untraditional edge-to-edge keyboard design layout with a bar of new 1-Click Function Keys and five additional shortcut keys marked with user-friendly icons for quick access to frequently used features, such as:
• A shortcut to entering Smart Power performance mode, which allows for faster performance or longer battery life depending on what you’re doing – without having to remember the prior Fn+Q key combination.
• The clever Background Blurfunction that instantly helps to protect the privacy of one’s surroundings during video calls via Microsoft Teams or other collaboration platforms with just a click; to show a clear image of you and your background again, simply press the key again.
• Lenovo’s design and engineering teams had the unique chance to add a better sound bar to the Yoga 9i’s 360-degree hinge. Vibe Check is an audio mode switching function key that lets users better discern variations between subtle audio profiles for a more pleasurable listening experience for almost any sort of entertainment. Choose from music mode, game mode, or movie mode for a more immersive sound experience that doesn’t detract from the overall atmosphere.
• In addition to smart sense lighting, which automatically adjusts the keyboard’s backlighting based on environmental light, the Color modekey allows users to quickly switch between dark and light modes via Windows’ native colour settings function to test which works best.Besides giving your eyes a break, enabling dark mode foran OLED display can potentially help preserve the life of the battery, and it comes in handy in low-lit environments.
• The Fingerprint reader was put here instead of where your wrists generally strike the palm rest for greater comfort and a cleaner appearance in the same column of keys. A FHD infrared (IR) camera with smart login and electronic privacy shutter is also included.
What’s new with the Yoga 9i? For starters, a 45 percent larger touchpad with improved finger space, click performance, and precision, as well as more connectors, including two Intel Thunderbolt 4 ports and enhanced Wi-Fi 6E for fast dedicated connectivity.

Intuitive design, technology, and fashion are all evolving, and in some cases merging, and there’s a lot of discourse about the environment right now, in case you hadn’t noticed. In many ways, Lenovo is ahead of the curve with the new Yoga 6 (13″, 7) convertible laptop, which was inspired by all of the environmental choices we make in our daily lives.
Simply picking a 2-in-1 laptop in Dark Teal built with recycled materials, including a cover made from recycled aluminium, or a fabric-wrapped cover option created with 50% recycled plastics and coated with a stain-resistant finish for resilience, can help you live more sustainably. Consider this: that plastic bottle you tossed in the recycle bin today could be used to manufacture two fabric covers tomorrow. The power adapter is made out of 33% recycled plastic. The Yoga 6 is also mercury, arsenic, and brominated flame retardant (BFR) free, as well as ENERGY STAR® and EPEAT SilverTM certified for energy efficiency and environmental protection.
The Yoga 6’s battery cells contain over a quarter of post-consumer plastic, and the laptop’s packaging is the “greenest” we’ve ever given on Yoga, with sustainable paper packaging sourced from responsibly managed and FSC® certifiedforests. Similarly, recycled plastic made up 90% of the protective cushion inside the box. This lightweight convertible is powerful with AMD RyzenTM 7 5700U Mobile Processorand integrated AMD RadeonTM Graphics built on leading 7nm technology to deliver ultra-fast performance via up to 8 powerful cores, good value with a sleek Windows 11user experience, and a hyper-efficient battery life plusRapid Charge Boost, in addition to being more eco-friendly.
Yoga 6 has a 13-inch Full HD 16:10 ratio touchscreen display for excellent picture clarity and Dolby Vision, as well as two front-facing speakers and Dolby Atmos for a great sound experience. Plus, you’ll receive more I/O ports than the previous generation, and in some areas, the optional pen will be included.

Lenovo presents its CO2 Offset Service for consumers, which will launch first on all Lenovo LegionTM and Yoga PCs, including those launched today, for users who wish to go a step further and actively contribute back to the environment. Lenovo assessed the average carbon emissions of its PCs across their lifecycle, from manufacture and shipment to use, to provide people with an easy and transparent approach to compensate for the environmental effect of their purchased item. Users can opt in and make a donation based on the cost of those emissions to one of several different United Nations Climate Action programmes, such as those that help improve renewable energy, reduce air pollution, or increase waste safety, at the point of purchase.
Lenovo has helped commercial companies offset more than 500,000metric tonnes of carbon dioxide since starting this service internationally in January 2021, the equivalent of greenhouse gas released by more than 100,000 passenger vehicles driven for a year. 9Now, with the opening of this service to the consumer market, Yoga and Lenovo Legion customers who want to address climate change through CO2 compensation may do so in a straightforward and transparent way at the touch of a button.
Lenovo Premium Care Plus, the newest in enhanced PC support, is another feature that customers may take use of in January. As the use of remote working, learning, and entertainment has grown, this expanded service experience was created with the modern user in mind to better secure technology that has become even more important in daily life. This expanded care package gives the real-time PC help Premium Care is known for, plus a portfolio of advanced Lenovo support services10all in one bundle, from added protection in cases of accidental drops to maintaining your PC performance always at its best.

Lenovo comes to the rescue with a new collection of eye-catching consumer Q-series monitors that have the resolution, smart audio, port variety, and modern design you’ll enjoy.
