Elegant with its thin and light aluminum design, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAP7 (82SV006HFR) is a versatile compact notebook PC with a 14-inch IPS 2.8K sRGB screen with colors more faithful than average whose frequency of 90Hz improves the fluidity which benefits from a SSD storage of a significant capacity of 1Tb reinforcing its reactivity. This silver Windows 11 Ultrabook equipped with a backlit keyboard, an Infrared webcam for biometric authentication and connectivity with USB-C Thunderbolt 4 and Wi-Fi 6 relies on 16GB of RAM and a hybrid Intel Core i7-1260P Alder Lake-P processor with Iris Xe graphics module to provide good performance in everyday use, modest multimedia work and gaming content.
Performance, battery life of the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAP7 (82SV006HFR)
The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14IAP7 (82SV006HFR) is a sleek, high-definition compact notebook designed for everyday multimedia-oriented mobile use.
Easy to carry thanks to its lightness, its compactness and its thinness, it will interest the nomads wishing to use their computer several hours without being encumbered with a wire to the leg because it can hold approximately 8 hours on battery in light use.
To ensure such autonomy, this versatile Ultrabook relies on low-power components.
This is particularly true of the SSD storage, which is more energy-efficient than a hard disk. It also offers other advantages such as greater resistance to shocks, silent operation and greater speed.
In addition, the SSD offers a large capacity of 1TB to accommodate multiple software and files.
In practice, the SSD guarantees a much better fluidity and reactivity than a hard disk. Thus, thanks to the SSD, we obtain, for example, start/stop, processing and launching of applications much faster, or a faster arrival on the maps of online games.
However, there is no dedicated graphics card on board. Gamers and more generally those who need a lot of graphics power will therefore pass their way.
It is still possible to watch photos and videos of course, but also to play games that do not require a lot of 3D resources thanks to the Iris Xe graphics solution housed in the processor. In games, however, concessions are necessary because the 2.8K definition requires more graphics calculations than Full HD, which implies a lower number of fps.
The Iris Xe is inserted in the Intel Alder Lake-P Core i7-1260P, a low-power processor with a TDP of 28W higher than the classic 15W, thus enabling better performance.
The Core i7-1260P Alder Lake is coupled with 16GB of RAM to provide good overall performance to satisfy many users.
This core is particularly suitable for multimedia work that takes advantage of the multi-core – and thus the 12 cores of the Alder Lake-P – and the RAM, which is for example the case in photo editing or video encoding.
However, if the objective is to carry out processing that requires a lot of processor resources, it is better to opt for a PC equipped with a non-low power processor.

This Ultrabook is equipped with a good connectivity composed of 2 USB-C Thunderbolt 4, wireless Wi-Fi 6 ax and Bluetooth 5.1 modules for remote connections and communications, an audio port and a single USB 3.0 (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 to make up for this absence, you can use a USB-C to HDMI or USB to HDMI adapter.
In any case, some will appreciate that the webcam is equipped with infrared technology to authenticate biometrically by facial recognition via Windows Hello technology.
The chiclet keyboard can be backlit, of course, which is useful for better distinguishing its keys in reduced ambient light.
Fans of high-definition content will be delighted that the screen is adorned with a 2.8K definition superior to Full HD. The format here is 16/10th, which is higher than the classic 16/9th and therefore more comfortable for uses such as office work and surfing the Internet. Thanks to its IPS and sRGB characteristics, the screen also has large vertical and horizontal viewing angles while displaying colors that are more faithful than average.
The screen also adopts a frequency of 90Hz higher than the standard 60Hz which improves the overall fluidity while the anti-reflection treatment ensures a better visibility in bright environments (eg: outdoor) than a glossy slab.
