If your work involves engineering software or intensive tasks like 3D rendering and machine learning, the Lenovo Slim Pro 7, with its more powerful graphics card, will provide better performance, but at a higher cost and slightly less portability compared to the Lenovo Yoga 6. Conversely, if your usage is more geared towards general tasks and portability is a priority, the less expensive Yoga 6 offers good performance, better portability due to its lighter weight, and a longer battery life which could be helpful when on the go. Both laptops are capable of handling everyday activities and have touchscreen capabilities, though the Lenovo Slim Pro 7 has a slightly larger screen and higher resolution, which could be beneficial for more detailed work or entertainment.

The Lenovo Slim Pro 7 14 has a better screen than the Lenovo Yoga 6 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, software development, and content creation.
For general use, the Lenovo Slim Pro 7 14's superior resolution and brightness make for a clearer and more vibrant display than the Lenovo Yoga 6, which is adequate but doesn't stand out. When focusing on engineering and design, both laptops offer good color accuracy crucial for professional work, yet the Slim Pro 7 14 excels with a better range of colors. However, for gaming and 3D tasks, the lower refresh rate on both laptops makes them less suitable for fast-paced visuals that gamers and 3D professionals need, where smoother motion from higher refresh rates is preferred.

"The Lenovo Slim Pro 7 is an attractive, portable laptop that’s ideal if you need a combination of CPU and GPU performance. It also nails the fundamentals with solid connectivity, an enjoyable keyboard, a large touchpad, and top-notch webcam. Display quality is a weakness, but it’s an acceptable compromise for the laptop’s extremely competitive $1,199 MSRP. The Slim Pro 7 is a versatile, affordable laptop and hard to beat for the price."

"The AMD R7-7730U in the Lenovo Yoga 6 13 provides a suitable answer to the limited cooling capabilities of a convertible - especially in tablet mode. It draws high computing power from a comparatively limited power supply so that less heat has to be dissipated at the same time."
