Laptops with webcams sitting on the display’s bezel have never been anyone’s hill to die on, but Lenovo? They’re reinventing the wheel—or in this case, the webcam. While Honor made waves with its removable Magicbook Art 14 webcam, Lenovo decided to shove theirs under the display of the Yoga Slim 9i (14”, 10).

This trick, borrowed straight from smartphones, marks a first for laptops, giving you a whopping 98% screen-to-body ratio—because bezels are so last season. Then again, isn’t that always the case?
Let’s talk about that screen. It’s a 14” PureSight Pro OLED 4K panel with 120 Hz refresh, enough to make even your ultra-HD cat videos look like cinematic masterpieces. The 750 nits peak brightness ensures you can blind yourself while working outdoors, and with Delta E<1 and support for 100% sRGB, P3, and Adobe RGB, every pixel is a colorist’s dream. Bonus points for TÜV Low Blue Light certification—you can work (or procrastinate) for hours without melting your retinas.
Inside, it packs a punch with an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and up to 1TB of SSD storage. The AI-powered Copilot+ features aim to help creators by optimizing workflows, meaning less time waiting for Photoshop to render and more time pretending to be productive. And with up to 17 hours of battery life, this 1.25kg (2.76 lbs) lightweight champion ensures you’ll run out of excuses before it runs out of juice.
Available February 2025 starting at US$1,849, the Yoga Slim 9i isn’t just a laptop; it’s a statement: “I value my bezels so little, I made my webcam disappear.” Lenovo’s definitely swinging for the fences with this one, and honestly, we’re here for it. At least, I am.
