Lenovo has expanded its consumer portfolio at IFA 2026 with new laptops across its Yoga and IdeaPad Vibe series.

Lenovo IdeaPad Vibe
The Lenovo IdeaPad Vibe is arguably the most interesting part of the company’s new consumer lineup, particularly as Lenovo is targetting a younger audience with a focus on portability, battery life and personalisation.
Available in 14-inch and 15-inch versions, the laptops come in seven colour options developed with the Pantone Institute, including Dreamy Violet, Spicy Gold, Zen Green and Chill Blue. The idea is that a laptop can be a personal accessory as much as a productivity device, with optional customisable keycaps adding another way to personalise the machine.

The IdeaPad Vibe is powered by Snapdragon X processors and comes with Copilot+ PC features, with select models offering up to 24GB of memory. Lenovo is promising all-day battery life in a lightweight metal chassis starting at 1.3kg, while on-device AI features can handle tasks such as real-time translation, video conferencing effects, content creation and privacy enhancements.
OLED models offer up to 100 percent DCI-P3 coverage, while IPS versions can offer a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 100 percent sRGB coverage. Lenovo also offers up to AMD Ryzen AI 400 Series processors on select models, with up to 32GB of upgradeable memory and 1TB SSD expansion.
The IdeaPad Vibe’s combination of colourful designs, lightweight hardware and long battery life seems to be Lenovo’s answer to the MacBook Neo, particularly for students and younger users who want something distinct. The Snapdragon X variants should also benefit from the platform’s focus on power efficiency, while Lenovo is giving buyers more hardware choices than a typical thin-and-light laptop.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Vibe will be available starting October 2026, with an expected starting price of 799€ (roughly Rs 88,000).
New Lenovo YOGA series
Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n (15-inch)
The Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n is the flagship offering of the new Yoga lineup, targeting creators and developers who need a lot of local computing power in a relatively portable machine. It is powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark with up to 128GB of 9400 MT/s unified memory, allowing users to run AI models locally alongside demanding workloads such as software development, high-resolution video editing and 3D rendering. Lenovo says the RTX platform can also coordinate multiple AI agents to automate more complex creative tasks rather than simply accelerating individual AI features.
The Yoga Pro 9n also brings RTX gaming to the same machine, making it a more versatile option for users who want one laptop for both work and entertainment. Lenovo’s X Power thermal system is designed to maintain performance during demanding workloads, while the PureSight Pro OLED display focuses on colour accuracy and detail.
Other features include a 9.2MP IR camera, a haptic Force Pad with pen support and creator-focused connectivity. Lenovo positions it as the performance-focused Yoga for users who want local AI, RTX gaming and high-end creative workloads in one device.
Lenovo Yoga 9n 2-in-1 (16-inch)
The Lenovo Yoga 9n 2-in-1 takes a different approach and combines NVIDIA RTX Spark with up to 64GB of 9400 MT/s unified memory in a convertible design. The 16-inch laptop can switch between Laptop, Tablet, Tent, Stand and Canvas modes, while its PureSight Pro OLED display supports a 120Hz variable refresh rate. It also supports local AI and creative workloads, including applications such as Adobe Premiere Pro and ComfyUI.
Its main highlight is the dual-surface pen experience. Users can write or draw on either the OLED display or the haptic Force Pad using the Yoga Pen Gen 2, which supports tilt sensitivity, palm rejection and customisable controls. The laptop also gets a six-speaker Dolby Atmos system with a rotating soundbar, along with creator-focused connectivity and imaging features.
New Yoga tablets
Lenovo has also introduced the Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 and Yoga Tab Gen 2, with both tablets focusing on pen-based creation, AI features and entertainment. The Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 gets a 13-inch 4K PureSight Pro display and Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, while the smaller 11-inch Yoga Tab Gen 2 uses the MediaTek Dimensity 9500s and weighs 480g.
Both support Lenovo’s AI tools, including Qira, AI Vision, AI Note and Live Transcript, along with the Tab Pen Pro 2 and features such as gesture controls, tilt detection and palm rejection. They also run Android 17 and will receive seven OS upgrades and seven years of security updates through 2033.
Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO i
Lenovo has also refreshed its IdeaCentre AIO i for everyday home use, with 23.8-inch and 27-inch Full HD display options supporting up to a 120Hz refresh rate and 350 nits brightness. It uses Intel Core Series 3 processors with up to 40 platform TOPS of AI performance, supports up to 32GB of LPDDR5x memory and dual SSDs, and comes in several colour options, including Dreamy Violet, Radiant Coral and Zen Green.
Lenovo has also redesigned the AIO without the traditional bulky computing section behind the display, giving it a cleaner look, while features such as an adjustable stand, optional 5MP IR camera, Harman audio, six USB ports and optional wireless charging make it more suitable for everyday family use.
