The Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Pro 14ACH5 scores points with its powerful Ryzen 9 5900HX APU, 16 GB of RAM, and a 14-inch display (2880x1800 pixels, 90 Hz, IPS) in the 16:10 format. This is accompanied by good battery life as well as low noise and heat development.

Putting overclockable CPU in ultrabook and soldered RAM. What the heck Lenovo.

This is what x13 should be instead of those low power cpu+super low power dgpu.

I don't understand why you would need a H55 CPU and no dGPU in an Ultrabook, with no possibility for expandable graphics.

A scenario where you need to carry a small laptop that can push sustained CPU only workload to maximum for short periods is uncommon, less than 3% probably.
And unlike a MacBook you lose all that CPU potential running unplugged on battery power which most people carrying ultrabooks do.

So who is this laptop for?

Edit: Apart from Software Devs of course, because everyone commenting on this website probably works in the IT industry. So far I can only think of corporate mathematicians who perform complex number crunching and data scientists. Other than that I'm not aware of heavy applications that cannot benefit at all from using GPU cores.

Developers and office workers (though office workers are fine with ulv cpus). Not everyone uses gpu compute, people working with embedded mostly don't and a lot of us don't want to carry big laptops. If anything, I'd say finally a performance small notebook that doesn't waste power and space with a discrete gpu.

Thunderbolt would have been nice but maybe some one does an equivalent of this with an intel cpu since only they have thunderbolt for now

You need this kind of cpu if you have to run VMs. Especially if you have to use an IDE in a virtual win box. And even if you have this amount of cpu power, you will want to have a second m.2 device just for the VMs disk image. We use this for just one project, for all other projects we nativly use linux on our developer notebooks.
I use a Core I7 6c/12t 45 watt notebook with 32 GB RAM and finally ended up placing my win-VM on a ryzen 2700x workstation and use it via rdp. So there are some people out there who don't care so much about gpus, but appreciate every bit of cpu horse power.
