They Just Changed The Game...

This is not the usual packaging

We've seen some different things over the years. This one, we don't really know what we're about to encounter

I'm told that it might be challenging, which is why I've brought you here. This is Will, ladies and gentlemen

We did not coordinate our outfits today. Yeah, let's out with that. wooden puzzles you do that and I'm gonna take a look at this

Take this one out

Oh, okay. We got something here. Number five. I'm going to attempt this one

Oh, have you seen this one before? No. Oh, there you go. Four

Two for two. Hmm. Oh

There's a dice. What? The six is in white and the rest are in black

This is six. Four, five, six makes sense to me. No dice. Five

Four, six. Five, four, six. Five, six, four. Alright, so a special product calls for a special unboxing experience

hence the challenge of getting into this particular package. But the device is exciting in and of itself

This is the YogaBook 9i. I had seen clips of this thing from CES

I was intrigued, to say the least. a dual screen device. It's hard to even call it a laptop

because I think there's a lot of different ways in which people are going to use it. Might dock it in this configuration

might fold it all the way around and use it as a tablet They might use it in tent mode Extremely versatile By the way this unit that they sent over here is a production sample Some of the software and stuff I can really test extensively

but it's still totally worthwhile to look at. We've seen folding and bending displays

but maybe the optimal solution for a device of this form factor

is just two different beautiful OLED panels, sandwich them together in an extremely thin and light package

Well, what about a keyboard? How do I type into this thing? Obviously, you could use an on-screen keyboard, which would be fine if you're trying to travel extremely light

But also, you do have a keyboard attachment. This guy can sit in front of the laptop, sit on top of the laptop, can also sit at the top portion

And what this will do is activate a trackpad section on the lower portion of the display

Many different configuration options. Maybe this is slightly more comfortable for you to have it over here, or maybe you don't want to have it on the display at all

And this is an origami style, extremely lightweight stand. I was a little bit apprehensive about this when I first saw clips emerging with it

It turns out that it's actually surprisingly robust. It clips together like that, sits on the table, and then this guy slots in

And you might have been worried about it, but this can go anywhere with you

Check out how small that footprint is. It's pretty wild. Like where do you put the audio? So they figured out a way to work it into the hinge and that's putting it beautifully at ear level

Now try to think of another way that you can carry around this type of screen real estate in a package in a form factor that's this tiny specific dual screen settings to allow you to kind of configure things, control the brightness of each display independently or automatically

You can have dual screen wallpaper, virtual keyboard and touchpad settings, cross screen browsing

Look at all the different potential configurations can also go this way with it

You can imagine for software development, for coding, or even just for web browsing, social media management, all types of different uses

The beauty is it's just so versatile. You still have tent mode, so this will stand on its own with limited desk space and still

get this thing placed all the way back to traditional laptop-like setting

So as you can see the keyboard pops up now It all about meeting your personal criteria for work You have options here It actually a pretty big on keyboard

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. You know what

If you're used to typing on screens, then this is actually, it's really not that bad

You can replace it with this. Jumps over. I actually put a typo on the real keyboard

This keyboard is pretty nice. Obviously, it connects wirelessly. Another thing I should mention at this point, how solid the whole thing feels

Very robust feeling construction. Really sturdy. There's a tab on the front for lifting up the screen

You have this nice easy spot to reach. Thunderbolt connector on this side, which also works for power

There's two more Thunderbolt ports. Very thin and light device, yet you're still getting some pretty decent expansion

Turn off the front-facing camera with this mechanical switch, and then the power button's over there

And an interesting color choice as well. Touchscreen is obviously there as well, and it goes a step further

You can use the included pen for sketching, note-taking. You could fold this thing all the way around into tablet mode

Very comfortably hold this like this, get some sketching done. Artists, Photoshop work

It's kind of wild how many different things this aims to replace

The angle Lenovo is taking here is sort of one device that can do a lot of different things, to say the least

It can be your tablet, it can be your convertible, it can be a dual screen workstation, it can be docked, it can have the external keyboard, it can be a drawing tablet, and so forth

Power brick is actually pretty slender for a 65 watt. What kind of specs are you going to be getting in this device

It's going to feature the 13th gen Intel Core i7-1355U or 1335U, so i7 or i5, targeted at low power consumption and long battery life

Display specs, which are extremely important. You guys know I'm a huge fan of OLED

This is dual 13.3-inch, 2.8K, 400-nit-capable OLED displays. 100% DCI-P3, 16x10 touchscreen as well

You have everything that you're looking for. You're going to get Windows 11 Home or Pro

It going to have integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics 16 gigs of LPDDR5X memory storage configuration either 5 12 gigs or 1 terabyte PCIe SSD Gen 4 2 watts and 2 watt

Bowers and Wilkins speakers featuring Dolby Atmos. Not something that I'm going to test at the moment since this is a production sample

So Lenovo is stating that battery life, you can see up to 14 hours of video playback

but that is on a single screen mode. Screens tend to take up a fair amount of power

They consume a lot of power. But it's not going to completely wreck your laptop

if you like to have both screens on at the same time, and why wouldn't you

There's about 10 hours of video playback in an optimal scenario using both screens at the same time

So 10 versus 14. All of these accessories are also going to be standard

which is kind of interesting. They're not gonna nickel and dime you and sell you everything separate

Instead, in the box, you're gonna get the pen, folio, and the Bluetooth keyboard

So the keyboard is gonna fit in here like this. Like this

And like that. Ooh, check it out. The keyboard actually stores in this folio, and so does the pen

A pretty lightweight package collectively. I'm noticing the magnets all over the place now

The cool part there is that they're making this stuff standard. I don't have a price point at the moment, but at least you get everything

This is a whole different level of clean. 1.38 kilos puts it in that three-pound area

It's actually amazing that they've got all these screen components, and yet the weight hasn't increased substantially

when compared to having a keyboard in there instead. So many different configurations

It's endless. You have a wonderful multimedia machine for content consumption with a variety of orientations you can put it in

So many of our applications and the type of work we're doing is going online these days as well

Might not need a tremendous amount of horsepower in your laptop and instead you need just some beautiful displays

some versatility of orientation. That is the Yoga Book 9i. When you pop this baby open, let me tell you

you're going to be turning some heads when they see that second display light up. Good job

Very cool, Lenovo
