    It's hard to believe this laptop even exists. Ryzen 7840S, OLED, 32gb ram, 1tb nvme, linux, good keyboard, good trackpad, thin, light, looks awesome, for the equivalent of 1k USD as a student in europe. You can overinsure that bish with additional 3 year premium warranty + accidental damage coverage and still only be at 1.2k USD. Lenovo has actually done the impossible.

      Everything is really great, the laptop feels much more expensive than the ~1300€ I paid, the screen is gorgeous (albeit not matte, like the P16s OLED), the keyboard is very good and battery life is great. The touchpad is very good, but its clicking noise feels and sounds cheap, as so often with less than business class laptops...
      Now I am paying 300€ more and get - a slower CPU with a much lower TDP - A classic Thinkpad look, which I like a lot - a bigger screen with 4k resolution - hopefully a very silent low workload environment - maybe even a better battery life (I specced the big battery) - same weight - slightly bigger footprint - much better service conditions, as I am now a "pro" costumer ;-)

    Hey Eber, I would like to know if there's any chance that you would review the basic Yoga 7 as well, it seem to be one of the best value higher end laptop per spec, plus they've done a lot of thing right. Same OLED option, very slim and light, offer TWO FULL SIZE USB ports, plus even SD card slot (I think.)
    I also think it's available in North America. There's criminally few review contents on this laptop which is a shame because it sound like it could be a no brainer to most people (especially the AMD variant, there's people who covered the Intel one but I think AMD is simply a requirement for this thin and light form factor)

      ​@@LionStricker I'd suggest the Lenovo Slim Pro 7 (14” AMD). It has a nearly identical design and specs to the laptop featured in this video. The main differences being that it doesn't fold in half, has a GeForce 3050 Mobile GPU, and a wider variety of ports. At the moment, it's discounted in the US at 1000 euros. If you're interested in other options, you should also check out the ASUS Vivobook S15 Oled, Acer swift x, Dell XPS 13, and the HP Envy laptops which are all decent options for your price point. Hopefully, they're all available in Europe so let me know if there are issues there.

      @@LionStricker Hello! hmm...I would recommend looking at Lenovo's LOQ laptop series. They hover a bit above and below your budget depending on the configuration. They come in 15" and 16" variations. They are intended for gaming and are pretty powerful for the price point. The designs are pretty minimalistic albeit a bit chunky. I would recommend watching Jarrod'sTech's review on the LOQ series if you have the time. Unfortunately, I am not very familiar with spec requirements for programming, though I assume they would be somewhere in line with video editing? If so, I would also recommend looking at the rest of Lenovo's Yoga and Slim series, as the ones near your budget have a bit less power than the LOQ laptops but are better with features such as screens and build quality, if you value that.

    I received my Yoga Slim 7 a few days ago and have sent it back. The performance is really excellent, the laptop looks great and the screen, audio and keyboard are really fantastic. But the fans run all the time and have no clear pattern. They often start up even when the laptop is doing nothing. Since I need the laptop mainly for office work, I don't need the enormous power, but a laptop that doesn't bother me even in a quiet office. So I now bought a Thinkbook 13x Gen 4, which is much quieter and covers all my needs. What a shame, because the price of the Slim 7 is really unbeatable.

Allows me to configure my laptop more the way i want than needing to rely on what the vendor thinks i would use and in the long run would make the device pretty useless if you want to use it for other purposes.
