Title: Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 16ILL10 review: Minor updates in all the right places
Post by: Redaktion on May 13, 2025, 16:23:21
The Yoga 7 2-in-1 16ILL10 may look like just a simple processor update over last year's Yoga 7 2-in-1 16IML9, but it actually carries several other changes that really improve the usability of the 16-inch convertible.

What is that small black M.2 card next to the CPU?

60 Hz is bad enough, but this? Shame on you LENOVO.
QuoteDisplay P3 Coverage   
39.7
sRGB Coverage   
57.9

Also, no way in hell I would get 16 GB RAM anymore, I want to be able to host my own, decent, LLMs, like Qwen3-30B-A3B-Q4_K_M.gguf (18.63GB - doesn't fit into RAM), Qwen3-32B-Q4_K_M.gguf (19.76GB - doesn't fit into RAM)..16GB RAM aren't going to be enough to even run Qwen3-14B-Q4_K_M.gguf (9 GB), since the OS uses a good chunk of the 16GB RAM already.

Thanks for the review but i have a few points:
1)The numbers of the maximum temps seem to be inconsistently reported: the pictures relative to the stress test's temp are different from the numbers of the max load temps in the temperatures table.
This is not the only review where i noticed this.
2) why not including also wifi test temperatures. I think it s very relevant for a user to know the temperatures during a typical usage
3) why not including pictures and description of the hinges at the screen level? Especially in case of convertibles this makes such a huge difference in terms of Durability. An old lenovo yoga 730 i fixed had them GLUED with an adhesive!!!!

Yeah, I came here to ask the same thing! What is that card on the third slot?

This laptop sets a new record for longest battery life in a x86 16-incher so it's time for another update to the Battery Life Leaderboard*:


*Real-world battery life is typically 25-45% shorter than the tested runtimes when factoring-in full display brightness of 300-450 nits (60%+ shorter at 600 nits), operation on "balanced" power mode, and 10% battery degradation within a year as Notebookcheck conducts WLAN/WiFi benchmarks on each model at 150 nits with "activated power-saving measures" while "ultralight web browsing".
