The Yoga Pro 9i will be available in two screen sizes, 14.5″ and 16” and two colors, Tidal Teal and Storm Grey. Both the devices are powered by up to 13th Gen Intel Core mobile processors, a NVIDIA RTX 4070 laptop GPU and up to 64GB RAM.
The main highlight of Yoga Pro 9i is its PureSight Pro Mini-LED Display. The 16-inch model can be configured with up to 3.2K resolution, 1200 nits brightness, 165Hz refresh rate, a triple color gamut of 100% DCI-P3, 100% sRGB and 100% Adobe RGB.
The improved Premium Suite in Yoga Pro 9i includes four noise cancelling microphones, a new 1.5mm Yoga keyboard, which comes with 0.3mm dish keys for ease and comfort, and the larger trackpad. The 5 MegaPixel Webcam enables high quality video calls.
Significant increases in thermal capacity of these laptops include a 62.5% increase in the 16-inch Yoga Pro 9i and more than 25% increase in the 14.5-inch model when compared to previous generation.
Built with 50% post-consumer recycled plastic in the keyboard and 50% recycled aluminum in the bottom cover, both Yoga Pro 9i (16”) and Yoga Pro 9i (14.5’) are ENERGY STAR rated and EPEAT Gold Registered.
