Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition (Gen 10) Review: A Balanced Ultrabook for the Masses

Lenovo’s Yoga series has long been a favourite among professionals and students for its sleek design, portability, and performance, all at a reasonable price point.

The latest addition to the lineup, the Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition (Gen 10) is a sleek, lightweight laptop that continues to tick a lot of boxes, featuring a great screen, solid performance, good battery life, and handy extra features.

Design & Build

Upon unboxing, the laptop looks clean and feels premium.

The case is made of aluminium in a cool Luna Grey shade that does not show fingerprints easily, perfect for humid Singapore.

It is thin (about 14 mm) and light (around 1.5 kg), so it is easy to carry around.

For heavy tech accessories users who find limited ports a hassle, Lenovo added plenty of ports so you would not need to get external adapters. It comes with two USB‑C (Thunderbolt 4), one USB‑A, an HDMI 2.1 slot, and a headphone jack. There is even a slider to turn off the webcam for privacy.

Display & Sound

Bright and colourful, the 15.3″ touchscreen is sharp at 2.8K and refreshes smoothly at 120 Hz. It handles movies, photos, and everyday tasks brilliantly with punchy colours and good contrast. While it is not OLED, it still looks great.

The sound is clear and fills a small room nicely, thanks to Dolby Atmos, but there can be some vibration around the keyboard area if you turn it up high.

Keyboard & Trackpad

Typing feels good overall. The keys have a decent amount of travel and give a solid typing feel. The trackpad is reliable but basic, with no fancy haptic clicks like on some high-end laptops.

Performance & Cooling

Inside is the new Intel Core Ultra 7 (Lunar Lake), paired with 16GB or 32GB RAM and a fast SSD.

In everyday tasks like web browsing, video calls, editing documents, and light photo or video work, it is quick and smooth. For casual gaming or graphic work, its integrated Intel Arc graphics should deliver, though it would be unfair to expect smooth play on the latest high-end games.

It stays cool even under moderate use, and the fans run quietly with the temperature kept in check, making it great for lap use.

Battery Life

The 70 Wh battery should be able to last most casual users a full day of work or study.

We tested it with one charge to power up around 14 hours of casual web browsing and some video playback. While not the best, it is suffice for most general usage.

AI & Smart Features

The Aura Edition includes some extras powered by Intel’s chip and Lenovo’s software. There is a wellness feature that reminds you to take breaks or check your posture, plus a Smart Share tool that lets you swipe a photo from your phone to your laptop. These are fun and can be useful, though a bit gimmicky.
