I got an upgrade from the C940 and does not feel that much better. Still freezes up when there are too many processes running and the screen also tends to flicker. The stylus is also minuscule even for my way smaller than average hand but it does produce clear writing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excelente equipo, muy rapido y mas ligero, el sistema operativo Windows 11 tiene muchas novedades, todavia no las exploro totalmente, pero siento que habra gratas sorpresas conforme pase el tiempo...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought two of these for me and my wife. Overall it is sleek, responsive, and generally reliable. The best part about it is the sound quality. Phenomenal for a device this size. However, this is one of the worst engineered devices I have ever laid my hands on. Two screws under the back foot pad create a faraday cage which cripples the wifi. Remove them and everything works fine. My only other complaint is the lack of docking station support. I have a Lenovo USB-C Thunderbolt 3 dock from my ThinkPad which has and continues to work flawlessly for over a year. Since moving to my Yoga 9i I have had nothing but problems with bluescreens and monitor disconnects requiring regular power cycles to recover from. I have tried updated drivers both from Lenovo as well as Intel. Nothing resolves the issue. I attempted to reinstall Windows which leads to my final complaint... the BIOS does not support bootable USB media formatted with anything but Fat32... Given that Microsoft creates installer drives with files larger than 4GB this is unacceptable. Unless you are comfortable creating your own installer WIMs with a smaller file size, do not expect to have an easy time installing any OS on this model beyond the built-in Fresh Start option in Windows.
At the end of the day, I love this thing... but every time I come across one of these issues I want to throw it in a bin.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to own the Yoga710 4 years, and it's impressive for its good quality and nice sound. At this time, the yoga 710 is a little slow, especiall in multi-task conditon. I choose the yoga 9i without resitation for the suitable price, the up-to-date intel 11th processor, nice sound and good quality.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far it's been pretty great. The screen and audio are great (granted I'm updating from a much older laptop). I've already had to do some trouble shooting around some things (freezing multiple times, requiring bitlocker multiple times) so not quite as seamless a transition as I was hoping for.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this Yoga. Has everything I need. Would rate it 5 star if it had an HDMI port and another USB port. Screen color is awesome, sound is great and love that it folds into a tablet.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the size of the screen and obviously the ability to flip it into a tablet. Still trying to figure out how to use it, but love it. The only problem is the battery goes down really quickly, which I thought wouldn't be a problem since its new.
