HDMI-in lets the AIO double as a 27" external monitor (for a laptop or console), while HDMI-out drives a second display. The USB-C port provides 10Gbps data (no video-in/out on this port). The stand supports −5° to +15° tilt, and selected trims add a 15W Qi wireless-charging pad in the base.

Highlights

• Clean, single-cable desktop with monitor-class I/O (HDMI in/out)
• High-refresh 100Hz QHD panel for smoother UI and scroll
• Tool-friendly upgrades: 2× SO-DIMM and M.2 NVMe SSD

Why this is the best choice

If you want a clean, capable hub for work, study, and everyday creativity, the Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO i Gen 9 makes it easy to choose well. Its expansive 27" QHD touch display gives you a crisp, roomy canvas for multitasking, photo-heavy documents, and web apps, while the 100Hz refresh rate keeps scrolling, editing timelines, and casual motion smooth and comfortable. The 13th Gen Intel Core i7-13620H delivers quick, laptop-class performance that feels responsive across daily productivity and creative tasks, and 16GB DDR5 memory helps you keep multiple apps open without slowdowns. A fast 1TB SSD speeds boot, launches, and file access, so you spend less time waiting and more time doing. Thoughtful touches elevate the desk experience: the wireless charging base lets you drop your phone to top up power while you work, and HDMI In/Out turn the AIO into a flexible hub—use it as a brilliant external display for a laptop or console, or drive a second monitor when you need more space. With Wi‑Fi 6, you get modern, reliable connectivity for cloud apps and video calls (router dependent). In short, you get big-screen clarity, touch convenience, and all‑in‑one simplicity that clears cable clutter and streamlines your setup. A quick note: as with most all‑in‑ones, internal upgrades are more limited than a tower PC, and if you prioritize high‑frame‑rate gaming or intensive 3D work, a system with a discrete GPU may be a better fit.

Material Quality

A solid chassis with a stable base and precise panel fit keeps wobble low; Harman-tuned speakers and a shuttered 5MP camera reflect attention to daily usability.

Design and Functionality

Near-borderless bezels maximize screen in a compact footprint. HDMI-in lets you plug in a laptop or console; HDMI-out adds a second monitor. The optional wireless-charging base powers your phone without extra cables.

Performance and Effectiveness

The 10-core i7-13620H and fast NVMe storage keep multi-tab browsing, office apps, conferencing, and photo tasks smooth. Dual-channel DDR5 boosts integrated-graphics responsiveness.

Innovation or Exclusive Features

A rare combo of 100Hz QHD touch plus HDMI-in, with an optional 15W Qi charger integrated into the stand—minimizing desktop clutter.

Value for Money

Integrated 27" display, quality audio, webcam/mics, and bundled peripherals reduce accessory spend and setup time, extending value over years.

Comparison with Competitors

Many AIOs lack HDMI-in and stick to 60Hz FHD. This model’s 100Hz QHD panel and monitor-class I/O deliver a smoother, more flexible workspace.

Warranty and Support

Backed by Lenovo’s limited warranty, with PSREF-documented parts and service options for predictable upkeep.

Maintenance and Ease of Use

Two SO-DIMMs and an M.2 slot make RAM and storage upgrades straightforward; the camera’s physical shutter offers quick privacy assurance.
