- The new Lenovo Yoga Mini i weighs just 600g while supporting four high-resolution displays
- Intel Core Ultra X7 358H processors handle multitasking and AI workloads
- Memory expands up to 32GB LPDDR5X for fast processing of large data sets
At CES 2026, Lenovo revealed the Yoga Mini i (1L, 11), an ultra-compact cylindrical PC weighing just 600g, marking the smallest entry in its portable desktop line.
This device uses an aluminum casing, providing a balance of portability and rigidity that suits professional and AI-based workflows.
Lenovo claims it supports up to four high-resolution external displays simultaneously, which is impressive for a device of this size.
Performance and processing power
The Yoga Mini i also functions as a Copilot+ PC, enabling integrated AI-assisted operations for productivity and multitasking.
It is powered by Intel Core Ultra X7 358H processors and offers enough performance to handle demanding applications.
Memory is configurable up to 32 GB of LPDDR5x at 8,533 MT/s, providing fast access speeds for large data sets and multitasking scenarios.
Storage options include up to 2TB PCIe Gen4 M.2, which aligns with small form factor workstations that aim to offer near-desktop capabilities.
Its graphics rely on a UMA design, which may be suitable for general AI tasks and multimedia work, although it will likely struggle to support heavier GPU-accelerated workloads.
The Yoga Mini i offers an unusually extensive set of ports for a device of its size.
On the back, it includes a Thunderbolt 4 port with 5V3A power delivery, two USB-C 3.2 Gen2 ports including support for a 100W adapter, a USB-A 3.2 Gen2 port, HDMI 2.1 TMDS, and a 2.5G RJ45 LAN connection.
The side includes a combo audio jack, an additional Thunderbolt 4 port with power delivery support, and a power button with fingerprint authentication.
Wireless connectivity is via Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0. Audio output is limited, consisting of a single 2W speaker paired with a dual built-in microphone array for basic conferencing and voice typing.
Measuring 130 x 130 x 48.6mm, the Yoga Mini i is a mobile workstation that’s easy to move between offices or take on the go.
The Yoga Mini i doesn’t outperform the ThinkCentre M75n Nano Desktop, which remains smaller and more power efficient while delivering similar performance with AMD Ryzen 5 PRO processors.
Lenovo’s decision not to relaunch the M75n leaves a gap in the market for ultra-compact PCs combining high efficiency and the smallest possible physical footprint.
In practice, the Yoga Mini i is a capable mini PC, although some users may still prefer the more minimal Nano form factor for extreme portability.
