Multimedia, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT001RFR) thin and light is a laptop gamer designer aluminum screen 14 inches 90Hz responsive High Definition 2.8K sRGB with colors more accurate than the average powerful thanks to its hybrid processor Core i7 Intel Alder Lake-H and 16 GB of RAM that accelerate the processing. This is also the case with the NVIDIA Ampere GeForce RTX 2050 ray tracing graphics card capable of running not too demanding games while the fast SSD storage with a large capacity of 1TB enhances responsiveness. This sleek silver Ultrabook designed to create and play is also equipped with a backlit keyboard, still an Infrared webcam for biometric authentication or connectivity with Thunderbolt 4 USB-C and Wi-Fi 6E but without HDMI.
Performance, autonomy of the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT001RFR)
The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT001RFR) can interest those who wish to equip themselves with a compact multipurpose laptop performing in multimedia.
It delivers an overall power to satisfy a maximum of users because it is architected around a hybrid Intel Alder Lake-H Core i7-12700H processor coupled with 16 GB of RAM.

This core will be of particular interest to creators. Because it guarantees much faster processing than a Quad/Hexa Core processor and 8GB DDR4. The difference is noticeable in CPU- and RAM-intensive areas that take advantage of the multi-core – and thus the 14 cores of the Alder Lake-H – such as video editing, 3D rendering or photo editing.
In addition, the GeForce RTX 2050 dedicated graphics card onboard accelerates processing in software that uses GPU computing power, such as Adobe Premiere/Photoshop or Sony Vegas.
Thanks to the GeForce RTX 2050 NVIDIA Ampere ray tracing, you can also play games that are not too demanding, but you have to make some concessions in the case of 3D-intensive games in order to get a good gameplay.
Keep in mind that the 2.8K definition of the screen requires more graphic calculations than Full HD, which implies a lower fps number.
In practice the GeForce RTX 2050 ray tracing is put to work by the Optimus technology to perform graphics work that is deemed too heavy for the Iris Xe, a graphics solution housed within the Core i7 Alder Lake-H, typically for gaming. With either of these graphics solutions, it is of course possible to view photos and videos.
The Iris Xe is favored to the maximum by Optimus despite its reduced performance because it consumes little energy, which promotes autonomy. Count on about 7 hours of operation on battery in light use.
The storage will seduce a maximum of users because it is entrusted to an SSD with a large capacity of 1TB able to accommodate multiple software, games and files.
In addition, an SSD offers many advantages compared to a simple hard disk because it is more resistant to shocks, silent in operation, consumes less energy and is much faster.
In concrete terms, the SSD ensures much faster processing than a hard disk, as well as software/game launches and starts/stops, and you get to the online game maps faster.
Lastly, in the event of heavy use (e.g. processing, games), expect heat and noise from this versatile multimedia Ultrabook gamer aluminum creator High Definition.
If necessary, a ventilated stand can be added to this computer to limit temperatures (remember to check the dimensions!).

Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAH7 (82UT001RFR) chassis, connectivity, screen
With its thin light silver and light Cloud Grey aluminum design, this creative and gaming oriented laptop has a stylish and discreet appearance.
It has a good connectivity composed of 2 USB-C Thunderbolt 4 (against 1 maximum usually), Bluetooth 5.1 and Wi-Fi 6E ax wireless modules (more recent and efficient than Wi-Fi ac) to communicate and connect remotely, an audio port or 1 USB 3.2 (Gen1, USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you plug a USB 3.0 device.
There is no HDMI video output, but you can use a USB-C to HDMI adapter for example.
As a webcam with infrared technology is integrated, we can authenticate biometrically by facial recognition via Windows Hello technology.
A backlighting system equips the chiclet keyboard, which is practical so that you can better distinguish its keys in dimly lit environments.
The creative ones will appreciate the screen offering a format 16/10ème more comfortable in height than the traditional 16/9ème. And especially a 2.8K definition clearly superior to Full HD and adapted to High Definition contents. In addition, the screen displays colors more faithful than average with large vertical and horizontal viewing angles thanks to its sRGB and IPS specifications. Its frequency of 90Hz higher than the standard 60Hz improves the general fluidity while its anti-reflection treatment makes it more readable than a glossy panel in bright environments (eg: outdoor).
