The next-gen creator laptop flaunts Nvidia’s new superchip, up to 128GB RAM, and a familiar design — but Lenovo isn’t saying everything just yet.
Taipei, Taiwan – Computex 2026 has delivered its fair share of surprises, but one of the most intriguing reveals comes from Lenovo: the Yoga Pro 9n, the company’s first laptop powered by Nvidia’s brand-new RTX Spark platform. The laptop is very much on display, and Lenovo even shared a short teaser video on X showing off its sleek silhouette. But here’s the kicker – Lenovo hasn’t technically confirmed any internal hardware. Classic tease.
So what do we actually know? Thanks to hands-on reports from the show floor (and a little digging), quite a lot. The Yoga Pro 9n appears to follow the design language of the popular Yoga Pro 9i, but underneath that familiar hood lies something entirely new: the Nvidia RTX Spark superchip.
Under the hood: AI power meets all-day battery
At its heart, the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n is built around Nvidia’s RTX Spark platform. In its fastest configuration – which Lenovo and Nvidia are heavily hinting at for this machine – the chip pairs a 20-core Nvidia Grace CPU with a Blackwell-based RTX GPU. You’re looking at up to 128GB of unified memory and a staggering 1 petaflop of AI performance.
According to joint statements from both companies, the RTX Spark-powered Yoga Pro 9n is “built for agents and AI, creators, and gamers” while still promising “all-day battery life.” That’s a bold claim for a laptop that can theoretically chew through 4K video renders and LLM workloads like nothing. We’ll believe the battery part when we test it, but the ambition is real.
If you’re hunting for a bargain on last-gen creator laptops while you wait, Best Buy just slashed the price on this high-performance alternative – but for early adopters, the Yoga Pro 9n is shaping up to be something special.
Design and ports: all about creators
The short video from Lenovo confirms a 15-inch screen, and the overall aesthetic is pure Yoga: clean lines, a premium hinge, and a slim profile. But the real story is in the details spotted by reporters at Computex. The laptop features top-firing speakers, a backlit keyboard, and – unusually – a large trackpad with pen support. Yes, you can draw directly on the trackpad, which is a clever nod to creators who sketch on the go.
From images taken on the show floor, we can also spot an HDMI port and a full-size SD card slot. That’s no accident. By including both, Lenovo is signaling that the Yoga Pro 9n is made for photographers and video editors who need to plug into external displays or transfer massive files without dongle hell.
Add in a 15-inch panel (likely IPS or mini-LED, though Lenovo hasn’t confirmed), and you’ve got a portable workstation that doesn’t scream “gamer” – but could probably handle Cyberpunk 2077 at max settings if you wanted.
Pricing and release date: the waiting game
Naturally, official pricing and launch dates are still under wraps. Most RTX Spark laptops are expected to hit shelves this fall, and the Yoga Pro 9n will almost certainly be part of that first wave.
But we do have some ballpark figures. According to market analyst Morgan Stanley, Nvidia RTX Spark laptop pricing has leaked, with two tiers expected: the N1 (mainstream) and N1x (performance). The report suggests Spark laptops could start at $1,799** for base configurations and climb to **$2,899 for high-end models. That puts the Yoga Pro 9n in direct competition with the Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch (M5 Pro) which makes a compelling case at $2,499.
For creators already invested in Windows, though, that price gap might be worth it – especially if the RTX Spark’s AI acceleration delivers on its promises.
The competition is fierce (and it’s not just Apple)
Lenovo isn’t the only one crashing the RTX Spark party. Nvidia has confirmed a whole fleet of upcoming laptops, and the Yoga Pro 9n will have to fight for shelf space against some seriously impressive rivals. Here’s who else is entering the arena:
- Asus unleashes next-gen ProArt P16 and P14 – OLED displays, ultra-thin and light, aimed squarely at creative pros.
- Dell just declared war on Apple and Microsoft with the XPS 16 Creator Edition – tandem OLED screen, RTX Spark inside, and Dell’s iconic infinity edge design.
- HP unveils the world’s thinnest RTX Spark laptops – OmniBook X 14 and OmniBook Ultra 16 – HP claims these are the slimmest Spark devices announced so far.
- MSI just changed the laptop game with the Prestige N16 Flip AI+ – a 2-in-1 convertible rocking a 16-inch UHD+ tandem OLED display.
Also in the mix: Microsoft’s Surface Laptop Ultra (15-inch mini-LED touchscreen) and of course, Lenovo’s own Yoga Pro 9n.
That’s a crowded field. And remember, Nvidia has promised many more RTX Spark laptops to come. The platform is clearly designed to take on Apple’s M-series domination, and the early skirmishes at Computex 2026 suggest the battle will be brutal.
Final thoughts: a cautious thumbs-up
The Lenovo Yoga Pro 9n looks like a genuine contender. It has the ports creators need, a design that’s proven to work (the Yoga Pro 9i was excellent), and the raw silicon to back it up. But the lack of official specifications from Lenovo itself is a little odd. Are they still tweaking thermals? Waiting to see how Apple responds? Or simply playing the marketing game?
Until we get official clocks, screen specs, and battery numbers, take the “all-day battery” claim with a grain of salt. But if you’re in the market for a do-everything Windows laptop that can game, render, and run local AI models, the Yoga Pro 9n should be on your radar.
Stay tuned for a full review as soon as Lenovo lets us benchmark one.
