Lenovo Yoga Pro 9 Specs Leak: OLED Brilliance and RTX 5060 Power Expected
Specs of the upcoming Lenovo Yoga Pro 9 seem to have been released ahead of time. This is thanks to a listing that went live on a Portuguese online retailer. The specs look good. Brace yourself for what might be a significant price increase.
OLED Brilliance and RTX 5060 Power Detailed
According to the leaked product page, the new Yoga Pro 9 is going to feature a stunning 2.8K resolution display with a super-smooth 120Hz refresh rate. This time around, Lenovo seems to be employing OLED technology. This is a change from the Mini-LED of the previous generation. Expect deep blacks, vibrant colors, and superb contrast. This is perfect for both creative work and immersive entertainment.
Under the bonnet, graphical grunt will reportedly be supplied by an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU. The listing also hinted at a more upscale RTX 5070 variant. This would be consistent with previous Yoga Pro devices with top-end mobile graphics. To complement this GPU, the leak proposes an Intel Core Ultra 7 255H chip. It's paired with a generous 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a speedy 1TB SSD. This combination should deliver elite-level performance for heavy tasks like video editing, 3D rendering, and some serious gaming on the side.
Performance Expectations: Efficiency Boost Possible
If we look at recent benchmarks of Nvidia's desktop RTX 5070 Ti, there are suggestions of great efficiency gains over the previous generation RTX 4000 series. This is a good sign for the mobile RTX 5060 and 5070 in the Yoga Pro 9. They may be at least as performant and possibly as efficient as their RTX 4000 mobile equivalents. This is great news for both battery life and overall performance in a mobile workstation like the Yoga Pro 9.
The Price Question: Prepare Your Wallet
Now for the potentially painful part: the price. The Portuguese retailer listed the Yoga Pro 9 for €2,299. Currency conversions are not always precise, but that equates to around $2,520 USD. Bear in mind this is a single early listing. Local pricing and import taxes can have a significant effect on the final cost, especially with recent word of tech prices differing in the US. That said, this leak does show we're looking at a premium price point. It's likely a large increase over the current generation Yoga Pro 9 with RTX 4060 that starts at around $1,900.
Connectivity and Other Leaked Details
Beyond the key specifications, the leaked listing also shows a solid port selection. This includes:
- 2 x Thunderbolt 4 Type-C ports
- 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports
- 1 x HDMI 2.1 port
- 1 x 3.5mm audio jack
- SD card reader
These ports should provide ample connectivity for peripherals, external monitors, and accessories.
Wait and See for Official Lenovo Word
For now, this is just a leak. We are best taking the information with a grain of salt. That being said, the specs do sound plausible. If this listing is accurate, the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9 is shaping up to be a staggeringly powerful, gorgeous laptop. The only truly big question mark is whether or not the ultimate price will be worth the amazing specs. Only time and an official word from Lenovo will say for sure.
