The Yoga 2022 lineup will include the new 14-inch Yoga 9i, Yoga Slim 7i Pro X, and Yoga Slim 7i Carbon, which are all powered by the latest 12th Gen Intel Core i7 processors.

They will be available in all Lenovo Exclusive Stores, Yoga Stores, and authorized resellers. All three will include the following features to deliver on portability, versatility, and power:

Lenovo X Power for a smart adaptive performance
Lenovo PureSight Display for vibrant visuals
Lenovo A.I. Engine+ for predictive power and battery usage
Lenovo Intelligent Sense and Integrated Security for seamless safety

The new laptops also come with three-year Lenovo Premium Care, Accidental Damage Protection, and standard warranty.

Here’s a quick breakdown of each of the three new devices’ key features:

Yoga 9i

The best among the latest batch, the 2-in-1 convertible has four modes and delivers on superior performance with its up to 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1260P processor alongside up to 16GB LPDDR5 memory and 1TB SSD PCIE Gen 4 storage.

MacBook Neo already “supply constrained” amid unexpected demand

New purchases are reportedly getting delayed.

It’s been a crazy month for Apple fans on a budget. The debuts of the iPhone 17e and the MacBook Neo have brought the classic Apple experience to a wider market. Though the former is a bright spot on its own, the new MacBook Neo is currently breaking the company’s expectations as new orders are already “supply constrained.”

Last week, Tim Cook held an earnings call (via Six Colors) which includes the latest additions to Apple’s lineup. For the affordable iPhone, Cook gave a special shoutout as “the newest addition to what is already the strongest iPhone lineup we’ve ever had.” However, he was much more appreciative for the MacBook Neo’s role in the company’s notebook lineup.

Responding to a query about the new notebook, Cook says that the company “undercalled the level of enthusiasm” generated by the MacBook Neo. He also cited “tremendous enthusiasm” for the device in his main presentation.

Though he didn’t have the numbers to bolster his claims, he did give anecdotal examples of public schools switching over to Apple from Chromebooks and Windows PCs.

Finally, he says that the MacBook Neo is currently “supply constrained,” meaning new purchases will likely come with a delay before delivery.

Outside of the corporate perspective, there has been a lot of excitement for the notebook. Even if it uses the A18 Pro chip, the MacBook Neo promises a powerful notebook experience as is typical of Apple’s more traditional MacBooks. And to top it all off, it starts at only US$ 599, creating one of the most tempting offers for users who want to dip their toes into the Apple ecosystem.
