Lenovo Yoga 6 (13", Gen 7) (2022) — the value-tier Vega convertible
The Lenovo Yoga 6 Gen 7 at $783 pairs an AMD Ryzen 5 5500U with Radeon RX Vega 7 graphics and 16 GB of RAM. The flagged strength is graphics at 43.85 — more than eleven times the convertible median of 3.84 — with mobility at 87 (+27.9%) alongside. The flagged weakness is memory: 16 GB against a 32 GB class median.
Where it holds up
Portability posts 78.1 (high) and photo design 83 (high) — the strongest axes — while the Vega platform clears the recommended bar for Overwatch, Grand Theft Auto V and Rainbow Six Siege, an unusually strong gate result for the tier. Office productivity reads 77.19 (high), gaming 44 (mid), the modeling/CAD pair 50/51 (mid) and value 48.4 (mid).
Where it falls short
The 16 GB ceiling is the flagged gap on a graphics-forward sheet, and the entry Ryzen 5 processor keeps overall performance at 46.48 (mid) — no top-band reading outside the high bands exists, and the recommended-bar gaming clearance should be read as comfortable-minimum, not enthusiast play. The fabric-wrist-rest chassis trades rigidity for feel.
Price and depreciation
No depreciation anchor is recorded (base $0); no curve or projection applies. The 2022 cohort rate is 11.95% per year — the settled mid band of a four-year-old tier.
Alternatives to consider
The Lenovo Yoga 6 Gen 8 at $921 posts the near-same Vega-led scorecard on the newer 7530U; the Lenovo 13w Yoga Gen 2 at $1,084 is the reliability-forward alternative; and the Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 360 13.3 at $840 is the Intel thin trade at 32 GB.
Bottom line
Fairly priced for the class. The value-tier Vega convertible — photo 83 (high), portability 78.1 (high), cleared recommended bars at $783 — with the 16 GB ceiling and mid compute as the honest terms.
