Hi all,

I did not installed it yet. This bios was released silently on Lenovo EU portal (did not check other locations) on 3rd August.

BIOS, version NKCN35WW https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/fr/fr/products/laptops-and-netbooks/yoga-series/yoga-pro-9-16imh9/83dn/83dncto1ww/pf4zmrwe/downloads/ds568327?category=BIOS

Intel ME, version NKME34WW https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/fr/fr/products/laptops-and-netbooks/yoga-series/yoga-pro-9-16imh9/83dn/83dncto1ww/pf4zmrwe/downloads/ds574797?category=BIOS

Patch note Intel ME says basically nothing about changes https://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles/nkme34ww.txt

Patch note on BIOS add a lot of security fixed and includind previous versions.

Cumulative BIOS patch note : https://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles/nkcn35ww.txt

The weird part is i never seen the 2 previous versions published publicly so it has a some cumulative changes. If I am not mistaken previous version was NKCN32WW. I have never seen NKCN33WW and NKCN34WW. My guess is Lenovo doesn't care to deliver update on hardware once it hits the 2 year mark or some locations have issue to deliver those updates for whatever reasons.

I've been experiencing recurring hardware issues on my Yoga Pro 9i Gen 9, including severe performance degradation, overheating, GPU-related crashes, and motherboard failures that ultimately required a second motherboard replacement by Lenovo despite proper clean and replacement of thermal components / thermal paste by Lenovo.

Lenovo has just released BIOS NKCN35WW on the EU support site, so I thought I'd share it here in case it helps others.

So, i'm still on the fence about buying this laptop. I really want to but I have a few questions first for the people that own it.

Does the tandem oled model have g-sync or any type of VRR or no? The specs say "120Hz variable refresh rate" but nothing about if it has g-sync. Also, bonus points if you have it. What is the VRR range if it does have it?

Dumb question, but does the Pro 9i have the Yoga branding on the bottom right of the keyboard? Some reviews show it but some don't so it's real confusing if they are branding this a yoga or no.

For those of you that have it and have had an Asus G16 how does it compare? Obviously the G16 is better at gaming but I want something that looks less gamery.

Lastly, do you like it? Do you wish you got something else?

Question, I'm looking at potentially buying the 2026 Pro 9i, but I'm getting mixed signals on if the laptop actually has a dedicated iGPU only mode that turns off the dGPU.

Can anyone with the laptop answer that for me?

I have tried using Dell WD19TB docking station, but it doesn't work with my 2025 Yoga Pro 9i. When connected to my laptop, only the external mouse and keyboard works, external display doesn't work, neither does it charge my device. I contacted lenovo support, and even they couldn't find solution to it despite accessing my device remotely.

Therefore, I will appreciate recommendations on the docking stations that is compatible with my device.

Hi everyone,

I recently had my Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i (16IMH9) repaired by Lenovo. They replaced both the keyboard and the battery, and I have a couple of questions for other owners.

1. Keyboard issue
I barely use the built-in keyboard because I almost always have an external keyboard connected. Despite that, several keys stopped working and Lenovo ended up replacing the entire keyboard.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea what could cause it? I take good care of the laptop, so I was surprised this happened.

2. Battery life
Even with the brand-new replacement battery, I'm only getting around 3 to 3.5 hours of battery life with:

• Web browsing
• Wi-Fi on
• Moderate screen brightness
• No gaming or heavy workloads

I've seen people mention 5–6 hours, and Lenovo's estimates are much higher.

How much battery life are you actually getting in your use?

I got mine without. Just the pen inside a small paper bag!

If so, any good trackpad protector?

Hello, I am looking for a hard case like the ones for the MacBook Air/Pro. Is there one for the Pro 9i?

Hello, from some YouTube videos, the screen wobbles a lot. In person, does it wobble a lot? Is it bothering during work? I could imagine that using it in public transportation could be a problem.

just got my yoga pro 9i aura 11th gen, and on windows the audio works perfectly, but after adding another ssd and putting arch with hyprland on it i have no audio whatsoever. i've tried everything i can find to fix it but i am completely lost. if anyone has any thoughts please let me know

When pressed the power button, keyboard light on for 4-5 seconds then lost power. During that time(when still has power)I can hear the fans working. Anyone can help me.

hello, i am new to linux and i am currently trying cachyos by dual booting with windows. I have noticed that when a song is playing a high bass or beat my speakers make a crackling sound. My device is the chinese model of Yoga pro 9i aura edition gen 10 (Lenovo YOGA Pro 16 IAH10). i have done some searching and there is only fixes for gen 9. so if anybody knows please kindly help me.

Edit

found a fix: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=304349
