I’ve spent the entire day working on the Lenovo Yoga Pro 7i—and honestly? It’s amazing.
As a content producer for PhilSTAR Tech, my daily workflow demands a lot from my tech. From writing articles and managing social media to video editing and the occasional gaming session break (don’t tell my boss, haha), I need a laptop that can keep up.
Lenovo’s Yoga series has always been about adaptability, and the Yoga Pro 7i, built with the Intel® Core™ Ultra processor designed on the Intel® Evo™ platform, really takes it to the next level.
Whether it’s for work or play, this laptop can keep up no matter what you throw at it.
Let’s talk specs
Let’s start with the specs because I know that’s what you’re all curious about.
The Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 processor, paired with 32GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage, makes this laptop a great choice for content creators.
Thanks to the Intel® Evo™ platform, everything is tuned for responsiveness and efficiency, meaning you don’t have to worry about battery life or performance drops, even when multitasking.
I spent the entire day with multiple browser windows open, writing articles and managing social media—it was smooth sailing all the way.
The added AI-powered enhancements optimize performance for both CPU and GPU, ensuring smooth multitasking and rendering without overheating.
I was especially impressed with how the AI engine managed the laptop’s power, ensuring that I didn’t experience any lag or unnecessary heat while editing unboxing videos.
And the 14.5inch 3K PureSight Pro display? So nice!
While I’m usually not a fan of glossy screens (hello, reflections), I’ve got to admit, the sharpness and color accuracy on this one really made my work pop. It’s such a treat to work on when I’m editing photos or videos.
My first impressions? Love at first login
First off, facial recognition—yes, please! I don’t have time to type in passwords all day.
This feature is super convenient and it just works.
Another thing I loved right off the bat was how quiet the fan was. I hate it when fans get loud (I get distracted easily) while I’m working, but the Yoga Pro 7i stays whisper-quiet, even when I’m running resource-heavy programs like Filmora for video editing.
Speaking of editing, I used this laptop to edit my latest unboxing video (because you know I like to put tech to the test). The AI-powered enhancements, such as Intel’s AI engine, optimized performance throughout the process, ensuring smooth multitasking and rendering without overheating or lag, even when handling high-resolution footage or large files.
Even with Filmora running alongside a couple of browser tabs, the performance didn’t tank.
The 32GB RAM allowed me to multitask without any lag, and the 1TB SSD meant that I didn’t have to worry about storage space when handling large video files.
For a device this lightweight—just 1.49 kg—that kind of power is impressive.
It’s not all work, though!
The Lenovo Yoga Pro 7i is also perfect for watching TV shows or movies. The combo of the 3K PureSight Pro display and Dolby Atmos-optimized speakers basically turn your laptop into a portable theater.
Another little thing I noticed? The laptop has this 180-degree hinge that’s perfect for my cat-mom lifestyle. I’ve got a Sphynx cat that loves to sit on my keyboard when I’m not around, but with the hinge, I don’t have to worry about him damaging the screen—it folds flat!
The Only Drawback? The Price
Here’s the part that stings a bit: the price.
The Lenovo Yoga Pro 7i isn’t cheap, with prices hovering around ₱94,995 to ₱98,995 depending on the configuration. It’s definitely not the most affordable option out there.
But given the high-end features and performance, it’s a classic case of “you get what you pay for.”
Final thoughts?
So, after spending the whole day with this laptop, would I recommend it? Absolutely.
It’s clear that this laptop is built for creators who need power and flexibility (you know, like yoga).
Whether you’re editing videos, writing articles, or simply winding down with a TV show, this machine delivers.
While the price might be a hurdle for some, the performance and features make it well worth the investment for anyone serious about both work and entertainment.
