I ended up buying this laptop with the I7 and 32 GB RAM. As a programmer and part time student, this does everything I need. Sound is definitely lacking, but I usually wear headphones and use an external DAC/AMP, so it's not a deal breaker for me.

Can someone explain what a microSD card reader would be used for these days? I would understand an SD card reader, if you're a photographer, but what devices use microSD cards that you would then be frequently connecting it to your computer? Are people taking the card out of their Android phones and plugging it in on a regular basis?

Excellent review Shahpar! My son is headed to college later this year. I've been debating between the Lenovo Slim 7i and a Macbook Air. It would be great to see a little more in-depth info on the gaming performance. It's great to hear that battery life is 10 hours.
@SoulOfTech
@SoulOfTech 2 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching! Thanks for the feedback about the gaming portion, Ill see if we can do anything to make it a little more detailed. With that said while neither laptop is meant for gaming the Slim 7i being a windows PC will have far more compatibility with games. On the other hand the MBA will out perform in the battery life department by a long shot.

BIOS optimizations are not out of the questions provided there is an issue with hardware calibration. Though if the system is mostly tuned correctly already a BIOS update may not do much beyond additionally stability.

You should check the 2023 model, yoga slim 7 14 gen8 with an Amd ryzen. Thats hundred times better than this i can't believe they downgraded so much man. Ok so the 2023 slim 7 had •much better display: 3k 90hz 14.5 inch with much thinner bezels •custom amd apu for the device with performance competing with HS ryzen series and and integrated gpu with performance equal to the new intel arc. Much better speakers: a 6speaker setup with two on the top amd two at the bottom with two on the sides giving amazing sounds as good ass an zephyrus g14 2024. Battery: with a 70whr battery and the 3k res it still delivered 10hrs of use in general productivity Weight and thinness: it was just 1.35kg being 0.5 inch bigger in screen and size. Was thinner too, compromised on the io by having 3 usb c and headphone jack but it was worth the thinness imo. I already mentioned that the bezels were thinner. Its simply the same model but previous gen with amd, their naming convention depends on country to country for example this same device you reviewed in the video is called yoga slim 7i in India. Where the name 'i' simply denotes intel variant of the laptop This is the biggest glow down in laptop history iv ever witnessed 😪 😂😢 They could have atleast given a wqxga(2.5k) res option to upgrade with 90hz and four speakers with the platonic show on top being actual 2 speakers the way the pro 7 has. It would still make some sense, but this is horse shit in the name of a premium laptop, this should have been the slim 6i ffs. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fqqIh8WF2JOweas.html Check this review out by Matthew Moniz. You'll understand why I'm so pissed and im ranting so much. I just hope the next year's slim 7 is like this one in the video link.

I own a Lenovo Slim 7, after 1 year the display bezel just cracks and I own the Arc version and is the worst. Many problems using Photoshop, I just can use old GPU drivers or blue screen comes. This is the worst equipment I ever use. Bye Lenovo and your client support also the worst.
