Manufacturers often talk about “all-day” battery life with their thin and light notebooks, but Lenovo claims that the Yoga Slim 7x extends that to “multi-day battery life.” The efficient Snapdragon X Elite processor is paired with up to 32GB of LPDDR5x and includes a 70 WHr battery to enable this long endurance.Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x 14 Gen 9 (Image credit: Qualcomm)Your “window” into the computing world is through a 14.5-inch PureSight OLED panel with a 90Hz refresh rate and a 2944 x 1840 resolution. Lenovo says you’ll get 100% coverage of sRGB and the P3 color gamuts. Other features include a 1080p webcam with IR support for Windows Hello and a four-speaker audio system.Swipe to scroll horizontallyHeader Cell – Column 0 Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x 14 Gen 9Lenovo ThinkPad 14s Gen 6ProcessorSnapdragon X EliteSnapdragon X EliteMemoryUp to 32GB LPDDR5xUp to 64GB LPDDR5xStorageUp to 1TB SSDUp to 1TB SSDDisplayUp to 14.5” 2944 x 1840 OLED 90HzUp to 14.5” 2.8K IOKEDWeight2.82 pounds2.72 poundsPriceStarts at $1,199Starts at $1,699The Yoga Slim 7x 14 Gen 9 can be configured with up to 1TB of storage. It also has three USB-C ports (40 Gbps with DisplayPort 1.4 support), Wi-Fi 7 networking onboard, and Bluetooth 5.3 support.The Yoga Slim 7x 14 Gen 9 weighs 2.82 pounds and measures 12.80 x 8.86 x 0.51 inches. For reference, a 15-inch MacBook Air weighs 3.3 pounds and measures 13.40 x 9.35 x 0.45 inches. The 15-inch MacBook Air also comes with a slightly smaller 66.5 WHr battery.The ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 joins the Yoga Slim 7x in the Snapdragon X Elite arena but is specifically geared toward business customers. As a result, the laptop supports up to 64GB of LPDDR5x memory and supports the latest Wi-Fi 7 standard (along with Bluetooth 5.3). In addition, you can opt for a 5G modem if you need access when you’re out in the field away from Wi-Fi hotspots. Despite a smaller (compared to the Yoga Slim 7x) 58 WHr battery, Lenovo still claims the ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 can achieve multi-day battery life.Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 (Image credit: Qualcomm)Lenovo provides three display options with the ThinkPad T14s Gen 6: the first two are 14-inch 400-nit IPS panels with a 1920 x 1200 resolution, but one supports touch, and the other doesn’t. The third option is a 2.8K OLED panel with 100% coverage of DCI-P3 and VESA HDR True Black 500 compliance.The ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 also changes things up with available features and ports. On the security front, the 1080p webcam on the ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 gains a privacy shutter, and a fingerprint reader is integrated into the power button. It also has only two USB-C ports compared to the Yoga Slim 7x 14 Gen 9’s three, but you gain two USB-A ports for legacy devices and an HDMI 2.1 port.The ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 measures 12.34 x 8.64 x 0.67 inches and weighs 2.72 pounds. Those dimensions line up almost perfectly with those of the ThinkPad T14s Gen 5, which is powered by Intel Core Ultra 5 and Core Ultra 7 processors.According to Lenovo, the Yoga Slim 7x and ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 will debut next month, priced from $1,199 and $1,699, respectively.Dell XPS 13, Inspiron 14 Plus, and Latitude 7455Dell’s lineup of Snapdragon X laptops leaked early last week, so things here should look somewhat familiar. The XPS 13 has a striking design, with a keyboard that goes nearly to the left and right edge of the CNC-machined aluminum chassis (available in Platinum or Graphite). You’ll also find the controversial capacitive touch function row above the keyboard, which we discussed in our reviews of the XPS 14 and XPS 16. The haptic touchpad is also seamlessly integrated into the keyboard deck, which is covered in Gorilla Glass 3.Dell XPS 13 (Image credit: Qualcomm)Dell makes the Snapdragon X Elite or the Snapdragon X Plus available, although the latter is only coming to the Chinese market (at least for now).

I doubt the success of Qualcomm based Windows laptops because these laptops are priced more than $ 1000 but none of them are equipped with a discrete GPU. It’s only possible in Apple ecosystem with its hardcore fanbase where the buyers will be fine if their overpriced Apple branded laptops aren’t equipped with a discrete GPU.

They actually start at $999, so unsure where the headline got $1099

Plenty of Intel / AMD laptops are $1000+ without a dGPU, though. That isn’t a Qualcomm-specific problem.

See the Dell XPS 13, Spectre x360 14, Lenovo ThinkBook, FlexBook, ThinkPad X1s, acer筆電收購acer Swifts, LG Gram, etc. The MSRPs for many models, especially with 16GB DRAM, start over $1000 without a dGPU.

Most thin and lights simply don’t use a dGPU; it’s too wasteful and reduces efficiency in mainstream consumer laptops.

I work in a large enterprise (17,000+ employees) and outside of the creative teams, every single person would, without hesitation, trade in their old Dell for a new laptop that is lighter, faster, and has better battery life and thermals.

If these are as good (or nearly) as they are saying, these new machines are going to be huge sellers. Probably not big with the gamer crowd (not yet anyway) but that’s a comparatively smaller segment of the market.

AMD laptops already are not too shabby on battery, much better than 2018 Windows laptops. More importantly, I think Strix and Lunar will both be more than good enough. I don’t see a path for any night and day differences in any metric.

The Qualcomms will sell, but not as much as they hoped for.
