This Yoga Book is phenomenal in its versatility and potential. This reminds me of a mutant Galaxy Z Fold. Awesome concept. Lenovo should make these for schools and work with Dept Of Education to develop a app based curriculum for ALL schools. This way kids dont have to carry all these books. Kids could access all their classes class and homework. Teachers could even send kids tests and grade results when away from class. This Yogabook is a game changer man.

Good review. There is a lot to like about this dual screen laptop. I use an extra display with my laptop, so being able to use two displays on the go without any extra components to carry is very appealing. The option of using the two panels in vertical mode is also appealing. Using the 9i in book mode could be very good provided the weight is not to much. A hands on test would easily confirm that. I would also like to see an SD card slot onboard which would eliminate ( for me ) having to carry an external dock. Once the final pricing is revealed along with an options then it be very close to the ideal laptop I didn't knpw I wanted. !!😊😊😊😊😊

I guess it’s a judgement call for purchasers as to what is more important screen realestate of cpu/gpu performance. One possibility that doesn’t seem to get a mention is whether the top screen could be setup to accept a video input. This could be particularly useful for photography where cameras with an hdmi output are hooked up to an external monitor. I do it with my cameras. Maybe the 9i needs further development to make the most of it’s potential and improve the value equation.
