A review of the 16-inch Lenovo convertible highlights stylus input on both the OLED screen and the haptic trackpad.

The Verge’s review of the Lenovo Yoga 9n describes a 16-inch 2-in-1 convertible that pairs Nvidia’s Arm-based RTX Spark platform with a stylus and an OLED touchscreen. The reviewer used the machine while testing RTX Spark and argued the design previews what a touchscreen MacBook should offer.

RTX Spark is an Arm-based processor with a large integrated GPU and unified memory, an architecture comparable to the Apple silicon inside modern MacBook Pros. Most other RTX Spark laptops use conventional clamshell designs with touchscreens, while the Yoga folds flat into tent and tablet modes.

For builders and operators, the Yoga 9n shows how stylus input on both the screen and the haptic trackpad expands retouching, note-taking, and drawing work without covering the display. A magnetic stylus that attaches to the lid and charges wirelessly cuts the friction of carrying a separate drawing tablet.

Apple has not confirmed a touchscreen MacBook, but rumors point to an announcement in the coming days. Watch whether Apple Pencil support covers the trackpad as well as the display, and whether the stylus attaches magnetically for charging.
