Lenovo announced the launch of its latest laptop in its thin and light ultrabook line, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x, powered by Qualcomm's new Snapdragon X Elite chip.
The new laptop is part of the growing portfolio of so-called AI PCs, those featuring chips with integrated NPUs to handle more advanced AI applications for consumers. The Snapdragon X Elite in the Slim 7x comes packed with a 12-core CPU, an Adreno GPU, and a Qualcomm Hexagon NPU, all built on the underlying big.LITTLE microarchitecture pioneered by Arm (the same chipmaker behind the Apple M-series). Naturally, AI features will play a big role here, with Microsoft's superpowered Copilot assistant front and foremost.
