Our Verdict

Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 14 (2024)

Lenovo Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition 14 (2025)

The Lenovo Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition 14 (2025) is better than the Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 14 (2024) for most uses. The Yoga 9i is essentially a more premium sibling with a sturdier, more premium build, higher quality display options, a better webcam, and a longer battery life. That said, you can get better multi-thread performance out of the Yoga 7, especially if you get a model with the higher-end AMD Ryzen 7 CPU.
