They changed that up after their 2020-2021 yoga lineup. Prior to that only their convertibles were called Yoga's.

This has become my dream laptop for one single reason: it has charging ports on both sides. Unfortunately it's not available in my area or for shipping, otherwise I probably would be buying it right now

One way to tell is by looking at the bottom side. BB puts large stickers on the bottom for display models. If they removed the sticker, I've found on this model laptop that the sticker actually removes the finish of the laptop so you might see a partial blemish on the bottom in the shape of a square.

Another way to tell is when you get it, run something like HWINFO and look at the SSD drive stats -- it will show power on hours. If it's in the multiple thousands with very few restarts, it's probably a display model.

Actually, Lenovo includes the large carbon neutral stickers on all of them now from the factory so they all come with 2 stickers. The stickers were on all 3 of my open box excellent units that had single digits hours. HWINFO or crystaldiskinfo is the best way to check to see if there are a lot of hours on it.

I've worked with easily over a dozen of these 7i Aura Edition laptops. The Carbon Neutral sticker is like the size of a postage stamp. That's not this. The blemish I have seen on 2 BestBuy open box 7i's were identical size -- almost 3"x3" square. I've also seen a BB open box display model 7i laptop with that exact size sticker on the bottom saying it's a display model...I assume they forgot to take it off before reboxing it for sale.

I got burned by BB twice. I bought an open box excellent condition but it came with a missing charger. I went to the store to exchange it, store told me they had none in stock, contact the corporate office. When I contact the corportate office, they told me to go to the store for exchange... This is such a headache. Happened to me twice. first with the Lenovo LOQ openbox excellent condition and second time with Yoga 7 Laptop. If anyone were to buy an openbox item from BB, I suggest make a unboxing video just in case.... what a day. sigh
