Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14itl05, 14 inch light and enduring ultrabook with XE iris (€ 999)

Our opinion on the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14itl05 (82a3008yfr))

Enriched with an artificial intelligence supposed to optimize its performance, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14itl05 (82a3008yfr)) is not an ultrabook like the others.In the service of mobility and productivity with its autonomy exceeding 10 hours, it can count on a state -of -the -art processor Intel Core i7 quad core of 11th gen with IRIS XE graphic solution offering small capacities in play, associated with 16 GB of RAMand to a rapid SSD storage of 1 TB, key components for office automation and multimedia that can satisfy a large number of users.Add a quality Full HD IPS screen, a robust aluminum case, complete connectors with Thunderbolt 4, generous autonomy, easy Windows Hello and its IA introduction and you get a reliable and effective companion for every day.On the other hand, it will be necessary to compose with a reflective glass screen.

Chassis, connection, Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14itl05 screen (82A3008YFR))

Surrounded by aluminum, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14itl05 (82a3008yfr)) is above all sober, passes everywhere and robust with a high -end finish depowed.Its "slate gray" color changes gray or silver with a shade that pulls towards deep blue.The surfaces are mild, smooth and mates and do not hang on fingerprints for a simple look, without any flashy element, ideal for slipping into a professional environment.

In terms of measurements, the 14 inch optimizes its format with 15 mm thick for a frame of 320 x 208 mm around a borderless screen and 1.36 kg on the scale for this version with glass screen.

Besides, the design element that steals the show with the chassis is probably the screen.Its luminous IPS slab (300 nits)) reveals a Full HD definition (1920 x 1080 px)) which makes it possible to make the most of the content in high definition.A layer of glass is placed on the screen, bringing a little more sharpness to the content but with the appearance of reflections caused by the ambient brightness, a detail that could interfere with some.Interesting detail, the screen opens flat on 180 degrees to install it comfortably on the knees for example, or slide it under an external screen.The colorimetric cover is also interesting with all of the covered SRGB space, one plus for photographers in particular.

The connection made in the variety despite the small profile of the machine.Lenovo adds to its Slima 7 14itl05 yoga an infrared HD webcam with Windows Hello facial recognition and a long -range microphone for the use of Amazon Alexa and Windows Cortana assistants.No need for fingerprint reader therefore, the session opens on its own, without touching anything.Interfaces as such include two USB 4 Type-C Thunderbolt 4 ports 4 versatile and latest CRI (supports data transfer, power Delivery 3 power supply.0 and the DisplayPort 1 video stream.4)) as well as two USB 3 ports.2 Gen1 Standards.But that's not all.A microSD card reader also responds, as is a HDMI output.It is rather generous compared to competition now.Note that Lenovo teams this 6 Ax WiFi model.Bluetooth 5.0 is of course on the menu.

To enrich the user experience, Lenovo uses artificial intelligence.Log away from your computer and the video you watch automatically, transfer your screen content to another monitor, just by turning your head, and much more.The Lenovo AI should also facilitate authentication and translation while extending autonomy by optimizing performance according to the habits of use.

Performances, autonomy of Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14itl05 (82a3008yfr))

To propel this Yoga Slim 7 14itl05 (82a3008yfr)), we find a Core i7-1165g7 processor of 11th generation.Known by name Tiger Lake, this processor brings some interesting advances, starting with a higher TDP.Thus, the Core i7-1165g7 of our yoga displays a TDP of 28W where its predecessors, the Core i7-1065g7 and the Core i7-10510u are satisfied with a 15W TDP, despite low consumption.This stems on an increase in performance visible on advanced software (Lightroom, Capture One Pro, Davinci Resolve, 7zip, etc..)), a little less on everyday basic tasks (office, surfing on the web, streaming...)).Let us hear, these tasks in question are perfectly supported by yoga but with regard to missions engaging very few resources, the difference between generations is not notable.Opposite, the RAM provides 16 GB RAM, an important total for the multitasking that allows you to see the next few years serenely.

But the most interesting novelty of this 11th Gen Tiger Lake lies mainly in the new integrated graphic chip, the iris xe.Thanks to her, Intel returns in the race against AMD but also and above all against small NVIDIA graphics cards such as the GeForce MX250 or the GeForce MX350. Les performances de l'Iris Plus G7 de la Gen10 (Ice Lake)) sont dépassées d'une bonne longueur. Ainsi, avec l'Iris Xe, vous devriez être capable de jouer à de nombreux jeux en 1080p dans de bonnes conditions et de travailler sur des tâches assez gourmandes en puissance graphiques (Lightroom)) sans délai.Another benefit to have a more swift graphics chip integrated into the processor is to simplify the design of the ventilation system and therefore cause less noise and heat than on a configuration with dedicated graphics card.

We should also mention the storage entrusted to a dedicated SSD of 1 TB, a generous capacity loaned even more common to hard drive and which allows to store without large multimedia restrictions.The system wins directly compared to a configuration with mechanical hard drive due to the speed of load offered by the SSD.This type of storage provides almost instant ignition and extinction phases, transfers calculated in seconds or instant software launches where the mechanical support involved substantial latencies.Note also that the SSD is by nature quieter, robust and efficient than a hard drive.

A word on autonomy finally.Despite his small profile, Lenovo still managed to slip a battery of 60.7 WHR, allowing it to be self -sufficient more than 10 hours.A force to take it with you a whole day.In addition, Rapidload technology allows you to supply up to 80% of the battery capacity in only an hour.
