The Lenovo Yoga AIO 9i AIO definitely has a gorgeous, very bright 4K display and you're correct Andrew when you say that you get more for your money with Lenovo than with the Apple iMac. I thought the quality of the 1080p webcam was clear and the built-in mics were good as well. Nice to have great sound out of the 4 speakers on an AIO. Obviously the star of the show here is the brilliant screen and for any lovers out there of an AIO PC, I don't think you can go wrong here especially after watching Andrew's thorough review! Thank you Andrew. Great job as always my friend!! 👍😁

They should maintain this design for the future refresh. Maybe larger base, taller/wider to fit discrete gpu. Love the design and the features.

Many thanks for the review. I have found it useful. I am wondering why Lenovo doesn't have a gaming version as well.

Always love your reviews before I purchase a computer. Did you do a review of Lenovo Idea Center AIO 27” i7 32 RAM 1TB or have any thoughts on this model? Everyday use for a small business, no gaming. Someone said it had an overheating issue, but I see it on sale at Costco about $750

I still think the HP Envy 34” AIO is the best AIO on the market. Beautiful 5K display, great webcam and ports selection. And, you can upgrade the RAM and SSD yourself! I love it!

Comparing all-in-one desktops is informative and helpful to those who are on the fence about what to buy. That said, comparing apples and oranges (pun intended) makes little sense. When it comes to difference between Apple and anything else, it's not about the box or the screen resolution, the upgrades...it's all about the operating system. Period. For those who are happy Windows users, it makes sense to get informed about various options out there. However, for those who prefer experience of Apple OS, an iMac comparison to a Windows machine is as irrelevant as it gets.

@andyYoutubeEmail 5 ай бұрын

Completely agree. There is no value in comparing the two when one is MacOS and the other Windows

@jackwong64 5 ай бұрын

This Apple term will get people click into it, this is why there are still KZfaqrs comparing Windows vs Apple. I’m more into iPhone/iPad OS more than Mac OS these days. Windows 11 is pretty good, with the strong come back for Edge and I have 1TB One drive, moreover this onedrive app on iOS is also awesome!

Did he remember to mention the 31.5” 4K display? I didn’t notice. Fan noise? Thermal throttling? What are those? Ah! It’s a PC. Okay.

@CaptainCaveman1170 4 ай бұрын

Believe it or not, there are people out there who are getting tired of Apple's anti consumer tactics and could be convinced to switch ecosystems if the value proposition was tempting enough. Just because you may be closed minded and locked into one greedy corporation's worldview yourself doesn't mean every single person is.

@simonuden8450 4 ай бұрын

@@CaptainCaveman1170 Agreed. It’s horses for courses, but I don’t think Apple is any more anti-consumer than Intel or Microsoft, or Google or any of the others come to that, it’s just how you define anti-consumer. For me, I find Apple’s ecosystem to be very important, and the fact that they build their computers without fault-inducing and space hogging connectors that would be necessary for expansion, means they’re more reliable, compact and they run cooler too. That’s just my opinion. You’re welcome to your inferior, yet cheaper, more varied and more configurable PC stuff.

Hi Andrew. Amazing review as always, thank you. Pity it has the old Intel processor. I personally think that the only-dark-colored parts in PC industry needs to stop, and return a bit to light colors, like the PC used to be many years ago. I found the old, white-color, PC parts more beautiful. Also, I think 31.5" is simply too big for the modern small houses. I went from 40" PC monitor down to 27" and I completely get now why iMacs are 24".

6:31 The quality is decent. I don't know if this is a setting issue, but I see that clear focus is on the stairs behind as opposed to being on the eyes. It's also sad that it doesn't have a designated GPU. It would be an awesome alternative for power users (for whom the i9 13900H is primarily made for).

@williamcohen3351 5 ай бұрын

Nice desktop all in one unit. Camera and mics are good. I think this is a good all around unit for typical day to day tasks. If one is going to need a computer for playing power hungry games and other intensive applications then this is not the obvious choice. This computer was not designed for this type of use. Great review.

No ethernet port? deal breaker for many, more so than an SD-card port. Qi charger is more of a sales gimmick . That said, def. looks better than other Win AIOs. What material is used for the base?

@samuelhorsfall3862 5 ай бұрын

I think this with the new core ultra or ryzen cpu's would be worth it. The Iris Xe graphics just don't cut it anymore. I know It's an AIO, but even apple's OLD iMac's have good igpu's.

I think manufactures should start putting OLED or mini led panels on their AIO desktops especially when one costs so much like the AIO 9i. After using 4-5 laptops and monitors with OLED or mini led displays, watching anything on a IPS display is not enjoyable no matter how colorful or bright it gets. A lot of AIO out there are sill using FHD IPS displays which is ridiculous.

@curtispenner2 4 ай бұрын

The hardware seems pretty good. It’s the software that matters in the end and this is will come with Microsoft. That is a dealbreaker. The difference between the Apple product and the Lenovo product is the software. Apple has a much better software solution. Both Microsoft and Apple are both closed and proprietary, which means they both are not very good, but Apple is better.

@VadimMarchenko 5 ай бұрын

And my usual complaint, it would have been brilliant if they had a matte display. Also about resolution. I've got 32 inch 1440p display and that is a brilliant resolution for this screen size. With 4k you need to set scaling to 125% and many applications look ugly with scaling. With 1440p you set it to 100% and UI elements look as they were designed. I understand that for video/and graphics consumption the more the better. It depends on what you use it for

At 32 inches 1440p the pixels are visible and it looks blurry-compared to 4k.

These comparisons are meaningless for most people. If I want or need a mac it makes no difference how good some Windows machine is. In my case I *require* a mac to run Xcode. Most mac users aren't cross-shopping Windows machines.

@andrewmarcdavid 5 ай бұрын

You have a very specific use case which requires a mac. I get that. However, many people want an alternative that has a bigger display and other features that the iMac simply doesn't offer. For some 24" display is simply not big enough. Anyway, thanks for the feedback.
