Those are minimal differences, but then you need to factor in the weight of the external keyboard and stand. Both of those are a bit more than you’ll find in some other 13-inch laptops, though, such as the Dell XPS 13 Plus that’s 0.60 inches thick and weighs 2.71 pounds. Mark Coppock/Digital TrendsĪt 2.95 pounds and 0.63 inches thick, it’s also a reasonably thin and light laptop when considering the additional display. It’s an attractive and highly modern laptop when closed, and futuristic when open. Of course, open up the Yoga Book 9i’s and you’re faced not with a standard keyboard deck, touchpad, and palm rest, but rather a smooth expanse of glass that mimics the primary display. Its display bezels are similarly sized, and the soundbar hinge ties the two panels together. It has the same rounded edges and general profile, while being a bit smaller in width and height thanks to the smaller display.

And then, yes, there was also the pen to unbox, along with an included external mouse. At first, I thought it was to prop up the keyboard, but the angle is way too steep.

There was an extra box for the external keyboard and one for the origami stand, both of which were hidden underneath the laptop. The Yoga Book 9i box, though, had multiple levels, and I needed to keep digging to access all the various parts. Maybe I’ll search for a pen if it’s included with a 2-in-1.
Typically, I pull out a laptop and its power supply and I’m done. Unboxing the Yoga Book 9i is an unusual experience.

Lenovo has added new models to its IdeaPad Flex Chromebook and Windows 11 two-in-one convertible lineups as well. It looks like we'll have to wait till summer to find out, though.

Lenovo will also offer an optional backlit keyboard for the device, which will make this a nicer option for dimly lit conference rooms and lecture halls.
