Our Verdict
HP ENVY x360 13 (2020)
Lenovo Yoga 7i 14 (2021)
The Lenovo Yoga 7i 14 (2021) and the HP ENVY x360 13 (2020) are both 2-in-1 convertible Windows laptops available with Intel 11th Gen processors. The Yoga 7i performs better as its CPU doesn't suffer as much thermal throttling as the ENVY x360, and its battery lasts much longer, with nearly five hours more of light productivity. It also has better speakers and a better webcam. The Yoga 7i has a slightly larger screen, giving you a bit more space for multitasking, but it doesn't get very bright, so it isn't the best option for well-lit settings. On the other hand, the HP has multiple display options, including a 1000 cd/m² screen with a built-in privacy filter and a 1080p OLED panel.
