There are two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports, a further USB-C port that can be used for charging, plus a 3.5mm combo audio in/out jack.

The touchpad is responsive and a decent size. The keyboard is a comfortable typing platform, although the keys aren't particularly bouncy. The Harmon Kardon stereo speakers are on the average side: they can pump out a high volume, but distortion is audible in the upper reaches. We have no complaints about either the backlit keyboard or the touchpad, but a fingerprint reader would be welcome. Unusually, the screen, which supports 100% of the sRGB gamut and 72% of NTSC, is matte rather than reflective. Outdoor working might be a problem though, as the maximum screen brightness is 300 nits. The 16:10 aspect ratio is welcome, and the display's QHD (2,560 x 1,600, 227ppi) resolution means content looks crisp and clear. Still, the screen does sit neatly in its surround, and Lenovo quotes a 91% screen-to-body ratio (although we calculateВ it to be 82.9%). The bottom bezel is deeper still at around 9mm. The 3mm depth that Lenovo quotes only applies to the short edges the upper long edge border is a little deeper - I measured it at 4.5mm on the outer edges rising to 7mm in the centre to allow space both for the IR webcam and for an overhang that comes in handy when lifting the lid.

The 13.3-inch screen is a QHD (2560 x 1600) IPS panel, and the laptop weighs just under a kilogram.

This laptop would certainly survive physically in a backpack without a protective sleeve, although you might want to use one in order to keep the chassis scratch-free. It's tough, too: Lenovo says the Yoga Slim 7i Carbon is 'rigorously subjected to 9 military-grade tests', namely: altitude, high temperature, low temperature, temperature shock, humidity, sand and dust, vibration, shock and freeze-thaw. The Moon White carbon fibre chassis won't appeal to everyone, but it's certainly distinctive. The Yoga Slim 7i Carbon is not currently available in the US. Those on a tighter budget can opt for the ВЈ899.99 model with a Core i5-1135G7 CPU, 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD, although the ВЈ100 uplift does buy you what looks, on paper, to be a much more capable machine.
