Checks off most of the boxes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had the Yoga 9i for a little over two months now, and it's an amazing laptop, to say the least. For starters, it's beautiful. I love the leather cover, speaker design, and fully glass touchpad area. It feels like it weighs almost nothing when carrying it in my bag and is small enough to use in the car when I'm out and about without turning myself into an origami work of art when trying to type. The battery life is phenomenal, and most of the time, I leave the house without my charging cable. I've yet to get even close to running out of juice when away from home. The video quality for zoom calls is more than passable, and I love that it has a built-in camera cover. Sound quality is top-notch, and I can't believe that no one else has thought of designing it in the same way. All that said, it isn't perfect.
The keyboard is comfortable and spacious, but I would like more 'clickability' in the keys. Sometimes they feel sort of soft, or maybe I just enjoy hearing that 'click clack' sound when I type. Also, the touchpad is overly sensitive, in my opinion, sometimes resulting in unwanted onscreen actions taking place, and I still haven't discovered a way to reduce the sensitivity to an acceptable level. (Like many of us out there, I've become a lazy typist over the years, resting my hands on the trackpad area when they should be raised. As a result of the trackpad sensitivity, you'll have no choice but to type correctly on this laptop. I'm complaining, but I'm actually typing the way I should now.) Finally, this laptop doesn't support Windows Hello and uses a fingerprint reader instead. The fingerprint reader, up to this point, has been hit or miss. It works about 65% of the time for me so far. Unfortunately, I have to leave my finger on the reader area for long periods (up to 10-15 sec in some cases) for it to work, if it works at all.
None of the detractors I've mentioned are game breakers, but I think people should know about them before purchasing. I'd still buy this laptop again in a heartbeat. For a portable laptop, it pretty much hits all areas I wanted to address: Long battery life, minimal footprint, reliability (we'll see), business-appropriate appearance, lightweight, internally housed pen, and fast. For business on the go, this is an amazing laptop.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It seems to be great so far. The resolution is incredible. It's extremely light weight. I love the leather cover on the lid; it was a nice touch that I was not expecting.

Love all the features except the leather cover

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently bought my laptop and it seems to have all the features I was looking forward to in replacing my old Dell laptop. It never occurred to me that I had to worry about leather material on the device itself, since it was not prominently included in the description I overlooked to review additional features. This would have changed my purchasing decision. Please do away with leather material on future generations of the model.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would have loved an option for non-leather screen shell. Other than that, all is good!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am retiring in Dec. after 30 years as a network engineer and lately as IT manager of support. Of all the machines that I have delt with, and carried all around the world in all of those years, the most reliable and rugged I have used and supported, and I mean hundreds, the IBM Thinkpad / Lenovos have been the best. So I bought this as a retirement present. Probably my last computer. It has the most current processor, windows 11 a gnerous memory and storage, can act as a tablet.So far it has fullfilled every expectation!

Perfect for the laptop user with no fingers!

Overall, it's a great machine. But the "Enhanced" haptic trackpad and fingerprint reader are absolute trash. The finger print reader is absolute trash and rarely works. The trackpad is very smooth to scroll, but dragging & selecting is extremely difficult. It's also EXTREMELY sensitive, even with the sensitivity set to its lowest, and you often click / move things accidentally. Past reviews show this has been an issue for nearly a year and Lenovo has not addressed it yet. I'm still considering returning it because of this. The trackpad is the 2nd most used thing on a laptop (The screen being the most) and I can't understand why a company would allow one to be this terrible. Their solution is to tell you to use the touchscreen instead, which is pretty lame.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
