Choosing between Lenovo V15 and Lenovo Yoga 6 involves tradeoffs in price, performance, and form factor. The V15 is more affordable and offers a larger 15.6-inch screen with a higher-capacity storage but less powerful graphics. It's suited for general use on a budget. The Yoga 6 is pricier, has a smaller 13.3-inch touchscreen with a higher resolution, and is a 2-in-1 convertible that can double as a tablet, with better performance for demanding tasks and is more portable. If you value increased versatility and portability over screen size and are willing to spend more, the Yoga 6 is the better choice. Give Feedback

The Lenovo Yoga 6 is good for engineering and design, while the Lenovo V15 is only fair.
The Lenovo V15's processor and graphics are less powerful compared to the Lenovo Yoga 6, which has a higher-end processor and better integrated graphics, playing a key role in intensive tasks like engineering software and design work. Moreover, the Yoga 6 offers superior screen quality with a higher resolution and better color coverage, essential for design accuracy, but the V15 is larger and may be more suited for people prioritizing a numeric keypad and larger screen over portability and touch capabilities.

The Lenovo Yoga 6 has a better screen than the Lenovo V15 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
If you prioritize a clear and sharp display for everyday tasks like browsing and watching videos, the Lenovo V15 may disappoint due to its lower resolution and brightness. On the other hand, the Lenovo Yoga 6 offers a better experience for engineering and design work with its superior color reproduction, making it easier to accurately view and edit images or designs, though it still falls short for gaming and 3D applications. Gamers and 3D professionals might find both laptops lacking, as neither provides the high refresh rates necessary for smooth, immersive visuals in fast-paced games and 3D rendering.

The Lenovo Yoga 6 and Lenovo V15 are both only fair for gaming and AI.
The Lenovo V15 and Lenovo Yoga 6 are both considered fair for gaming and 3D primarily due to their integrated Vega graphics chips, which can handle light gaming and 3D tasks, and their standard 60Hz display refresh rates that are suitable for casual gaming but not high-level competitive play. The Yoga 6 has a slightly better processor and display quality, which may offer a modest improvement in performance and visual experience over the V15.

Marvin Gollor | April 2022
"The strengths of the Lenovo V15 G2 AMD lie in its expandability of the RAM and allowing you to use two SSDs, in its performance that goes beyond everyday applications thanks to AMD's hexa-core CPU and Vega-7 iGPU, in its good keyboard, and its relatively robust case. In addition, the battery life of the office laptop is also acceptable, and the device stays cool and relatively quiet."

"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."
