Lenovo Showcases Newest Yoga Laptops for those who CREATE

You can do so much more with a Lenovo, this is what was cemented during an event where they showcased their latest laptops together with their tech partners in Blueleaf BGC. These are the latest ultra slim laptops that have Windows 11, for those who dare to create.

The Yoga 9i can flip and fold like its predecessors, but with a thinner form factor, even more powerful 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1260p processor, it can do a lot more than those thicker laptops in the market. It also has 16GB LPDDR5 memory plus a 1TB SSD PCIE Gen 4 drive which you can use to store photos, videos, documents without worrying you'll run out of space for it. The display is a 2.8K OLED PureSight Touchscreen so those clicks can happen when you need to. The Bowers & Wilkins branded soundbar system also bring a more immersive audio experience so if you need to present, watch movies, or listen to music, this can do the job. This costs Php 109,995 whic means it's an investment, if you need a device for work and play, and look good for that matter, the Yoga 9i should be on your list.

The Yoga Slim 7i Carbon makes those meticulous pros that look for form and function a little at ease. It might be 13 inches, but it's equipped with a 12th Gen Intel Core i7 1260P processor which makes work tasks or editing a breeze. It's super light at 960 grams, uses magnesium alloy for its body plus carbon fiber which makes it easy to bring along if you're working remotely. It's got a 2.5K PureSight Display and a 90Hz refresh rate, those games you play every once in a while that needs better resources can be done without worries. It uses an Intel Iris Xe so if you're fond of watching dramas or editing videos, this can perform for long hours. It comes in Moon White and Cloud Grey colorway and costs Pho 77,995. If you're looking for a laptop for studying and casual gaming, this would fit you nicely.

If you fancy the Yoga Slim 7i Pro X, you've got enough power for content creation, audio processing in one unit. It's a monster equipped with an Intel Core i7-12700H Processor so you can run software without slowing down other things and finish the job early. It's a bigger rig at 14.5 inches, has an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 with a 4G GDDR5 VRAM which you can use for heavy graphics and hungry apps. The 32GB LPDDR5 RAM and 1 TB PCIE SDD can get your projects stored, including photos, videos and documents without the need of other storage devices, as it is quite massive already. With the Lenovo X Power, your power use is efficient, something propreitary which you won't find in other brands. Those GPU and CPU needs will be managed, and you get the things done efficiently. I could see this be used by pros, who need 120Hz Refresh Rates, something Lenovo PureSight could only do (I'd be worried gamers would run out of it). It weighs 1.6KG, for what it can do that's still light. It costs Php 91,995 though which may be hefty for some, but it'll be worth the investment in the long run.


These are just some of the things that Lenovo has up their sleeves, who in the right mind would not want that? Uf you;re seriously considering to have one, check out lenovo.com/ph/en/yoga as they have the features listed there. It is available in the Philippines now!

UNBOXING The ASUS VivoBook S14

I've been looking for a laptop computer and this was a good day to test out a new laptop computer from our friends at ASUS. This is the new ASUS VivoBook S14, one of the few laptop computers that is equipped by an 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1065G7 Processor.

I have decided to do an unboxing video for it, so please indulge! 

This is equipped with an NVIDIA® GeForce® MX350 and an Intel® Iris Plus Graphics card. It also comes in different colorways namely Indie Black, Gaia Green, Resolute Red, Dreamy White. I love this one the most because I can stay in my monochrome palette (see my blog is also monochrome haha) and I can just jazz it up with stickers later so it would match my personality. It actually also comes with several stickers on the box and I was happy with the choices.

The screen has a frameless NanoEdge look with an 85% screen-to-body ratio. I'm gonna be able to have more space in it to put files when I do decide it's time to have a messy deskptop screen lol. Currently, this has a 500 Gig SSD drive and it's apt enough for office work or school. I would suggest you get a separate drive if you're planning to use this for creating videos as that might not be sufficient for HD or 4K quality. I can carry it but if you're the type who archives these things, that might be the solution. I also like the fact that I can transfer files, video and photos as it still has full I/O ports which includes USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C®, USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, 2 USB 2.0 ports, an HDMI, an Audio combo jack, a MicroSD card reader and a DC-in for the power. The connection utilizes an Intel Wi-Fi 6 with Gig+ which means it employs the 802.11ax standard. They really took time to put technology here.

This weighs nice at 1.4kg, I could easily pick it up and change spots with one hand while I carry around my bag with the other. Imagine how that applies in a coffee shop, it'll be easy anywhere.

Honestly, I haven't had the chance to use this for gaming but with recent checks, this can do Valorant, Genshin Impact, GTA5 too which I plan to do in the next few weeks. Overall, this impresses me most with how it can handle common office tasks, pretty fast in fact and that's what I do currently. Actually, I finished this blog post in a few minutes because of it, isn't that a good thing?

Watch out for more tests, see you on the next one!
