Lenovo laptop deals: Get a ThinkPad T14s for only $1,000, a Yoga 9i for $900 and more

Are you starting to suspect your current laptop won’t make it through the winter? If you’re ready to upgrade, Lenovo has a wide swath of laptops on sale this week. You’ll find huge price cuts on a wide variety of laptops, from business-class ThinkPads to two-in-one convertible Yogas to a high-powered Legion gaming laptop.

For my money, the best deal going is the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 8, the company’s flagship business laptop. It usually costs premium money, but you can get a well-equipped X1 Carbon Gen 8 model for only $1,200. It lacks the latest Intel silicon and the company’s Evo platform, but it serves up ample memory and solid-state storage capacity inside the solidly rugged yet incredibly thin X1 Carbon chassis. One step down from the X1 Carbon in the ThinkPad pecking order is the ThinkPad T14. This week, a T14s configuration is discounted to a reasonable $1,000, but it has only half the RAM of the X1 Carbon Gen 8 sale model and a dimmer display.

Lenovo’s new Yoga 7i and 9i two-in-one convertibles are also both on sale along with our favorite premium business convertible, the ThinkPad X1 Yoga. For gamers, a high-powered Legion 7i gaming laptop is marked down.

You’ll need discount codes for some of these Lenovo deals, which we’ve listed below, but they should appear on the Lenovo page, too. Now let’s dive into the deals and find you a new Lenovo laptop. We’ll keep this page updated with all the latest Lenovo deals.

You can get Lenovo’s flagship ThinkPad for only $1,200 with code THINKDEAL. It features a 10th-gen Core i5 CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB solid-state drive. The 14-inch display offers full HD (1,920×1,080-pixel) resolution and is rated for 400 nits of brightness.

Lenovo’s ThinkPad T series is second only to the company’s flagship X1 Carbon line in the ThinkPad pecking order. The ThinkPad T14s is a slimmer version of the ThinkPad T14, though not quite as thin as the flagship ThinkPad X1 Carbon. This configuration is deeply discounted with code THINKANNUAL and features a 10th-gen Core i5 CPU, 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. The 14-inch display features a full HD resolution and 250 nits of brightness.

Our favorite two-in-one laptop for the business set, the ThinkPad X1 Yoga boasts an abundance of hardware options and security features wrapped up in a thin, light aluminum frame. This model gives you an eighth-gen Core i5 CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. It also includes the ThinkPad Pen Pro. The 14-inch screen has an FHD resolution and 400 nits of brightness.

Lenovo’s new midrange two-in-one convertible laptop/tablet is already on sale. It features the same design as the Yoga C740 it replaces but inside has received an update to Intel’s 11th-gen CPUs. This sale model features an 11th-gen Core i7 chip, 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. Its 15-inch touch display can rotate 360 degrees into tablet mode and is rated for an impressive 500 nits of brightness. With its 11th-gen Core chip, the Yoga 7i gets Intel’s Evo label, which means among other things that the laptop has oodles of battery life, fast-charging and the ability to wake from sleep instantly.

Lenovo’s new premium two-in-one convertible features 11th-gen Intel processors for better performance and battery life, but the rest of the package sticks to last year’s script for the Yoga C940. You can save $400 with code SALEYOGA21 on this 14-inch configuration that features an 11th-gen Core i5 chip, 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD.

Trade the lower-end Legion 5i’s plastic chassis for all-aluminum sleekness and you get the Legion 7i. This discounted configuration with code GAMEON21 features a 10th-gen Core i7 CPU, 16GB of RAM and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q graphics. The 15.6-inch FHD display should be fast and bright: It has a 144Hz refresh rate and is rated for 500 nits of brightness.
