The displays on the Slim 7i Pro X and Slim 7 Pro X are 14.5 inches and have a resolution of 3K. They also have a refresh rate of 120Hz and reduce eye fatigue by limiting blue light. Those specs are enough to make them Lenovo PureSight displays. Lenovo PureSight is similar to Apple's Retina or Microsoft's PixelSense in that it outlines minimum requirements for resolution and other elements of screens.
Note that in some markets, the new laptops from Lenovo will be marketed as Yoga Slim devices.
