Since Intel’s Lunar Lake chips feature RAM on the same package as the processor, the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i 15 Aura Edition notebook does not have user-upgradeable memory. Users can either select a model with an Intel Core Ultra 7 256V processor (featuring 16GB of on-package LPDDR5x-8533 RAM) or a Core Ultra 7 258V chip (with 32GB).
