A folding laptop earns its place when you actually move between keyboard and pen. At TECHBUY, the Yoga 7 2-in-1 14IPH11 83TC002KVN and IdeaPad 5 2-in-1 14IPH11 83UG0026VN both list a 14-inch touch display, Core Ultra 5 322, 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD. Their screens, pen bundles and longer-term flexibility are not the same. Open your own documents on both before choosing by series name.
An OLED picture or an adaptable IPS screen?
TECHBUY lists the Yoga 7 83TC002KVN with a 14-inch WUXGA OLED touch panel and the IdeaPad 5 83UG0026VN with a 14-inch WUXGA IPS touch panel. OLED can look striking in photos and dark artwork. If you work under ceiling lights or beside a window, however, inspect reflections, small text and white document pages for an extended session rather than judging a promotional image.
Open the same note, spreadsheet and web page on both machines. Set a brightness you would use, fold each screen and view it beside a colleague. Panel technology alone cannot tell you which one feels better to your eyes.
Price the pen and test the hinge
The IdeaPad 5 product page says a Lenovo Pen Gen 2 is included with this configuration. For Yoga 7, ask which compatible pen the quoted package contains, if any. A pen is part of the real purchase cost; a cheaper-looking laptop may be different once the accessory is added.
Write a page in your usual app, annotate a PDF and set the laptop in tent mode for a video. Check strokes near the display edges, palm contact, port positions when folded and the return to keyboard mode. If you fold a computer only a few times a month, a lovely touch display might not change your routine.
Think beyond today’s 16GB RAM
Both listed SKUs have 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. Yoga 7 uses soldered LPDDR5X memory; TECHBUY describes memory slots and an upgrade route for the IdeaPad 5. If you keep many projects, virtual machines or large files open and intend to use the laptop for years, ask about that route. The two machines share the same Core Ultra 5 322, so a processor name does not settle this choice.
Confirm the maximum supported RAM, spare SSD slots, warranty rules for upgrades and parts cost for the exact model. Match the pen, charger, operating system and warranty period to the order before paying. Those details will shape daily ownership longer than a bright shop display.

Conclusion
If OLED colour matters to you, try the Yoga 7 with the pen you intend to use. If an included pen and a possible RAM upgrade matter more, inspect the IdeaPad 5 closely. On either machine, annotate a real PDF, fold the display and check it under your working light; then confirm accessories and warranty by SKU.
