What you need to know
- The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 7 Carbon is the lightest 14-inch OLED laptop on the market, according to Lenovo.
- It will release in October 2021.
- It will start at $1,289.
Lenovo's making a big claim with the IdeaPad Slim 7 Carbon, stating that it's "the world's lightest 14-inch OLED laptop." Such a remark comes with the following disclaimer: "Based on research conducted internally by Lenovo as of June 17, 2021, of all major PC manufacturers shipping more than one million units worldwide annually." Whether you doubt the validity of the claim, one thing is for certain: The IdeaPad Slim 7 Carbon is undoubtedly a very lightweight OLED laptop, clocking in at 2.37 pounds.
But a 14-inch OLED laptop coming in at under 2.5 lb isn't the only selling point the IdeaPad Slim 7 Carbon is marketing. It'll also sport up to 8-core AMD Ryzen 7 5800U series mobile processors and Radeon graphics. Or, alternatively, you can get the laptop with an NVIDIA MX450 if you want one of the best graphics cards but don't want a wholly AMD-driven machine.
Beyond those elements, you're also getting up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage, all stuffed into the lightweight, thin IdeaPad Slim 7 Carbon. On the software side of things, the laptop's coming packaged with Windows 11.
