The Lenovo Yoga AIO 27-Inch delivers standout value and performance in a stylish, entertainment-ready package.
The Lenovo Yoga AIO 27-Inch (starting at $929.99; $1,319.99 as tested) is a premium all-in-one desktop that blends style with substance. Its vibrant 27-inch display and capable audio make it a strong choice for entertainment, while an Intel Core H-class processor delivers above-average performance. A highly adjustable stand and conveniently placed ports add to its appeal. Though the bundled wireless peripherals are unremarkable—and you won’t get touch support with every model—the base configuration stands out for its value. For those seeking a well-rounded Windows AIO, the Yoga AIO 27-Inch earns our Editors‘ Choice award.Configurations: Everyday Power, Varying Perks
Intended for household use, the Yoga AIO 27-Inch offers ample everyday performance. Every configuration is powered by Intel Core H-class processors that are typically found in desktop-replacement laptops, plus the latest Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 wireless connectivity. It’s a step up in all areas from the IdeaCentre AIO 27.
The entry-level $929 model includes a Core Ultra 5 125H chip, 512GB of storage, and a 2,560-by-1,440-pixel touch display. Our $1,319 review model, exclusive to Best Buy, steps up to the newer Core Ultra 7 255H processor and doubles the storage to 1TB. Curiously, it omits touch capability—a feature that you can get in the otherwise-identical $1,599 version.
Lenovo’s site suggests some models may feature a discrete Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 GPU, though none of them were available for purchase during our review period. All models come with 16GB of RAM, soldered in place, meaning memory upgrades aren’t an option.
Dell’s 27 All-in-One (refer to our review of the 24-inch model) also starts at $929 but lacks touch support at that price. Touch models begin at $1,129, though all configurations rely on less capable Core U-class processors, limiting overall performance. Meanwhile, the Apple iMac starts at $1,299 with a higher-resolution display, though it’s available only in the 24-inch size.Design: Modern Looks, Innovative Port Placement
Lenovo’s Luna Gray AIO offers a sleek, upscale aesthetic. Measuring 22.3 by 24 by 9.3 inches (HWD), it’s comparable to a 27-inch, 16:9 monitor. The integrated stand supports rotation, lift (70mm), swivel, and tilt (-10 to +5 degrees), making it easy to fine-tune the screen’s position to your liking. The stand is permanently attached, so VESA or other mounting options aren’t available, but the extensive adjustability makes up for it.
The stand is permanently attached for good reason—it houses all the computing components, explaining why the display is thinner than it is on a typical AIO. The vents encircling the stand’s rounded top handle cooling. Impressively, the system remained practically silent even under benchmark load.
All I/O ports are housed in the stand, making them far more accessible than the typical under-display layout found on many AIOs. On the left edge, you’ll find a USB Type-A port, a USB Type-C port, and a headphone jack. Around back, you’ll find an HDMI input (enabling the PC to function as a secondary display), another USB Type-C port and two more USB Type-A ports, an Ethernet jack, and an HDMI output capable of 4K at 60Hz. All USB ports support 10Gbps transfer speeds. Power is supplied via a compact, laptop-style external adapter.
Control buttons on the stand include the on-screen display joystick, the webcam kill switch, and the power button on the right edge, plus the monitor mode switch button on the left edge.
