Lenovo’s Yoga laptop lineup has grown quite extensive. Among the models available are the Yoga 9i, Yoga Pro 9i, Yoga Book 9i, and the latest addition, the Yoga Slim 9i. There are so many variations, it’s understandable if you find it challenging to differentiate them all.
The essential details about the Slim 9i reveal that it is positioned as the flagship model within this lineup, boasting a stylish design, Copilot+ PC features, and a unique webcam technology known as camera-under-display (CUD) that conceals the camera behind the LCD. (This is not a completely new concept, as we’ve seen a similar approach in a smartphone released by ZTE a few years back.)

Before exploring that intriguing camera feature further, let’s focus on the overall design. While primarily constructed from aluminum, the cover of this 14-inch laptop showcases a striking glass finish in the “Tidal Teal” color, capturing attention but potentially being too ostentatious for some tastes—perhaps contributing to the decline of glass lids in recent years.
