Summary

  • Lenovo models like the Slim 5, the Yoga Pro 7 and the Yoga 9 will likely soon ship with Nvidia’s Arm-based N1/N1X system-on-chip.
  • Leaks and OEM listings suggest N1/N1X laptop CPUs could arrive as soon as Q1 2026.
  • The N1X targets high performance with up to 20 cores and 128GB of LPDDR5X memory.

While the Windows laptop market has been split by Intel and AMD for several years, recent rumors indicate Nvidia has plans to enter the fray with its own Arm-based offering.

According to reliable dataminer @Huang514613’s recent post on X (via The Verge), the 14-inch and 16-inch versions of the Ideapad Slim 5, two versions of the 15-inch Yoga Pro 7, and the Yoga 9 2-in-1, will all soon get variants powered by Nvidia’s long-rumored Arm-based N1 system-on-chip series.
