One product I can definitively state has been my favorite throughout my years of testing and reviewing laptops: The Lenovo Yoga 9i. With the 2024 model, the company continued to solidify why this series is the best of the best, yielding a thin, light, powerful, and beautiful 2-in-1 laptop that would be the laptop I'd buy for myself. And while October Prime Day is over, it's still on sale at Lenovo!

The Lenovo Yoga 9i (Gen 9) is currently available for $1,099 at Lenovo, which is $350 (or 24%) off its original price of $1,449.

When I reviewed the Lenovo Yoga 9i (Gen 9), I fell in love with its stunning OLED panel, Intel Ultra 7 performance, thin and sturdy chassis, clicky keyboard, and powerful speakers. It is the ultimate choice for those want a sleek 2-in-1, and while its battery life left a bit to be desired, it doesn't stop it from still being my favorite series of laptops.
