    Overview

    Almost two months have passed since Lenovo released the Yoga Mini i Gen 11. Originally available in China, the mini-PC then made its way to Europe and Australia a month later. Despite not reaching North America yet, Lenovo has already updated the Yoga Mini i Gen 11 with a new variant.

    New Variant Details

    Previously, it was possible to configure the mini-PC with up to a Core Ultra X7 358H processor and 32 GB of RAM to rival Asus’ NUC 16 Pro (curr. $1,029 on Amazon).

    Pricing and Availability

    Lenovo has priced this new 64 GB RAM version at CNY 17,999 (~$2,641) before accounting for any subsidies. By contrast, the mini-PC’s entry-level variant starts at CNY 5,499 (~$806) in the same market. Currently, Lenovo has not updated its PSREF website to reflect a 64 GB model. As a result, global availability remains unknown for now.
