Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x—The Smarter Way to Create
With the AI-powered Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x, creators can
spend less time editing, rendering, and processing, and more time
on creating, no matter where on the road they are. The Hexagon
NPU in the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x’s Snapdragon X Elite
processor provides creators with onboard access to features
such as text-to-image, advanced photo and video editing
functionalities, text creation and editing feedback as well as many
more functions that free up time that is better spent ideating new
creative endeavors. Additional smarter user experiences include
advanced camera and call quality and functionality, lossless
hi-definition audio, 4K streaming, faster internet connectivity and
enhanced security. This means that while the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x
can handle even complex tasks at speed, it is also extremely power
efficient when processing loads dip, translating into up to
multi-day battery life2 from the 70Wh battery so the ideas never
have to stop flowing. The Lenovo AI Core also works in
tandem with the Snapdragon X Elite processor to intelligently
determine the exact user scenario, dynamically adjusting power and
efficiency depending on the task at hand. This means access to
powerful AI-enabled features in a thin portable, device that is
ready to go whenever and wherever creativity strikes.
Starting at just 2.82lbs (1.28kg) and as thin as 0.50”
(12.9mm), the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x is as portable as it is
powerful. Creations made on the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x are brought to
life on the device’s vivid 14.5” 16:10 3K 90Hz 1000nits peak
brightness PureSight OLED touch panel with both 100% sRGB
and P3 color gamut support as well as TUV Rheinland Low Blue
Light support. The FHD MIPI IR Webcam means clearer visuals
on video calls and features four Voice ID microphones for clearer
conversations. Audio likewise sounds out with lifelike clarity
thanks to Lenovo Premium Suite’s superior four speaker sound
system. The Premium Suite keyboard features 1.5mm key travel on
each dish key. The addition of the new Yoga coating with longer
lasting anti-oil properties improves typing feel and comfort, while
the up to 135x80mm trackpad means more precision when on the
go.
The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x is also resource-efficient in its design
and packaging, with no plastic in packing material. The device
comes in boxes made from FSC™-certified paper and other controlled
material3 and uses dry-pressed paper pulp as cushioning, and the
included system bag is made of rapidly-renewable bamboo fiber.
Lenovo also offers a CO2 Offset Service that allows users to help
offset the estimated CO2 emissions associated with their device
across its average lifecycle by purchasing offset credits to
support verified CDM, Gold Standard®, Climate Action Reserve, and
United Nations climate action projects aimed to help reduce CO2
emitted in the atmosphere.
The Yoga Slim 7x also qualifies for Lenovo Premium Care service,
the advanced support service that provides personalized hardware
and software assistance from expert technicians with fast repairs
when needed.4
