That's why I was excited to review the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i 16, one of the few Windows laptops out there that at least attempts to rival the 16-inch MacBook Pro. With a powerful CPU and discrete RTX 5050 (or up to an RTX 5060), the Yoga Pro 9i 16 has the specs to compete as one of the best laptops, even if the lackluster battery life ultimately holds it back.
Like last year's Series 10, the new model is only 9.7mm thick, which makes it a slim fit to the wrist, easy to sneak under cuffs and more comfortable at night. It is light, slim and easy to live with. The 2,000nit OLED screen is plenty bright for seeing indoors and out, remaining clear to read off-angle, which makes glancing down at the time or notifications easy.
My initial hours spent rolling my eyes at everything Lenovo failed to fix from its first iteration slowly morphed into the kind of appreciation that can only occur when a device starts to feel personal. It's what happened when I downloaded Hollow Knight: Silksong and Hades II to the device and had to hold back a gasp on a crowded plane for how gorgeous both games looked on Lenovo's big, expensive, beautiful display.
What makes the Wacom MovinkPad Pro 14 particularly compelling is how it eliminates these compromises entirely. This new flagship portable creative tablet brings together a stunning OLED display, pro-level pen performance, and a complete Android platform in a package that's designed to go wherever creativity strikes. It fills a crucial gap in Wacom's lineup for creators who refuse to settle.
Xiaomi's new flagship models will be unveiled tomorrow - today come the Xiaomi 15T and 15T Pro. These bring high-end displays, powerful chipsets and capable cameras, but don't go for absolute performance like the flagship models and as a result they are easier on the wallet too. This year the two models are larger with 6.83" displays (the 14T pair had 6.67" displays), but they are thinner and have bigger batteries. The Pro also brings a more capable telephoto camera. Let's look at them individually.
In terms of its overall appearance, not much has changed on the outside of the Legion Go 2. It has the same general shape and detachable controllers as the preview model, alongside an 8.8-inch OLED with a variable 144Hz refresh rate and VESA HDR TrueBlack 1000 certification. Lenovo has kept the ability to use the right controller as a vertical mouse (aka FPS mode) when paired with the handheld's included puck/stand.
The Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra had a dual front-facing camera - as did the Tab S9 Ultra and Tab S10 Ultra. That's cool and all, but the wide notch they caused was not ideal. The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra will go halfway towards fixing the issue - it will only have a single camera on the front. Due to thin bezels, that camera will still live on a notch, but it will be less obtrusive as you can see in the images below.
