A very good laptop with brilliant battery life, a great keyboard and a bright display, held back from greatness by a mediocre webcam, awkward power button and limited ports.

What do critics say about the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition?
Recommended for school or office thanks to a lovely screen, great speakers and solid everyday performance, though irritating design choices like the webcam lip, power button position and weak camera detract.
A great laptop once you ignore the gimmicky Smart Modes, with strong battery life, impressive integrated graphics, plentiful connectivity and a good keyboard and touchscreen.
A lovely display and good port selection with decent battery, but slippery keycaps, rumbling speakers and gimmicky Aura features show it needs more polish.
