Lenovo Yoga 7 16" 8840HS 2025, Ryzen 7 8840HS, 16GB, 1TB SSD, Gray

The Ryzen 7 8840HS CPU is the highlight here, landing at the 80th percentile, but the integrated Radeon graphics at the 14th percentile drag the whole package down. Total score of 40.8 out of 100 puts this in the bottom third of laptops we track. At $1,069 USD with a bonus 1TB docking station, it's a decent productivity 2-in-1, but creators and gamers should look elsewhere.

The Ryzen 7 8840HS is the star of the show here. Eight cores at 3.3GHz base clock, and it lands at the 80th percentile for CPU performance in our database. That's genuinely strong for a thin 2-in-1, and it means everyday multitasking, code compilation, and general productivity work will feel snappy. The 16GB of LPDDR5X is fine, sitting right at the 51st percentile, which is about average for this class of machine.

The GPU is where things fall apart. AMD's integrated Radeon graphics score at the 14th percentile, which is a real letdown for anything beyond light gaming or basic video work. The 1TB SSD is solid at the 67th percentile, so storage speed and capacity won't be a bottleneck. But if you're hoping to edit 4K video or play modern titles, the graphics will hold you back more than anything else in this machine.

Stacked against the Apple MacBook Pro M4 Pro, this Yoga gets absolutely crushed on GPU performance and screen quality, though the Ryzen 7 8840HS holds its own on CPU tasks. The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 and HP OMEN Transcend 14 both offer dedicated graphics that make the Yoga's integrated Radeon look like a toy, but those machines are gaming-focused and lack the 16-inch touchscreen and 2-in-1 hinge. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 7th Edition is probably the closest philosophical match, with a similar productivity focus, but it typically scores higher on screen quality and build. The MSI Raider is a different beast entirely, aimed at raw performance, and it shows in the benchmarks. If you want a big touchscreen 2-in-1 with a strong CPU, the Yoga has a niche. If you want raw performance per dollar, look elsewhere.

At $1,069 USD, the Yoga 7 8840HS is a mixed value proposition. You're getting a strong 8-core CPU, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a bonus docking station with another 1TB of storage and a 32GB microSD card thrown in. That bundle softens the price a bit. But the integrated graphics and below-average screen mean you're paying for a big touchscreen and a good processor while accepting compromises elsewhere. For the same money, you could find laptops with dedicated GPUs or better displays, though you'd likely lose the 2-in-1 flexibility and the bundled accessories.

The Lenovo Yoga 7 8840HS lands in our database with a total score of 40.8 out of 100, which puts it in the bottom third of laptops we track. The CPU is the clear bright spot here, sitting at the 80th percentile, but the integrated Radeon graphics drag things down hard at the 14th percentile. You're getting a 16-inch 1900x1200 touchscreen, 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and a 1TB SSD for $1,069 USD, plus a bonus docking station with another 1TB of storage.

For developers, this machine scores 51.2 out of 100, which is decent but not exciting. For creators, it's a rougher story at 45.3. The weakest area in our testing is AI and LLM workloads at 19.2, so if you're planning to run local models, this isn't your laptop. But as a general productivity 2-in-1 with a big touchscreen, it has a specific appeal that the raw scores don't fully capture.

Skip this if you need any real graphics power. The integrated Radeon graphics at the 14th percentile make this a poor choice for gaming, 3D work, or serious video editing. Also skip it if screen quality matters to you, since the display sits at the 33rd percentile, which is below average for a 16-inch laptop. And if you're into AI or local LLM work, the 19.2 out of 100 score in that category is a clear warning sign. This is a productivity machine with a big touchscreen, not a performance laptop.

The Lenovo Yoga 7 8840HS is a laptop with one great component and several mediocre ones. The Ryzen 7 8840HS at the 80th percentile is a genuinely good processor, and the 1TB SSD plus the bonus docking station storage is a nice touch. But the integrated graphics at the 14th percentile and the screen at the 33rd percentile mean this machine is best suited for productivity work, web browsing, and light creative tasks. If you need a big touchscreen 2-in-1 for office work or coding, and you don't care about gaming or heavy graphics, it's a reasonable buy at $1,069 USD. If you need GPU power or a better display, keep shopping.
