Not a bad laptop considering that they lowered the price, so that’s a good thing. I like that the display has 400 nits of brightness and that you can upgrade the SSD. I appreciate that you can hide the Stylus pen within the chassis of the laptop so you don’t lose it. The quality of the built-in 1080p webcam and mic are okay. It has great port selection, quad speakers and I’m glad that it comes with the latest DDR5 RAM technology. Just make sure you configure and go with the 32GB of RAM when ordering it if you so choose. Great job once again Andrew and thank you as always!

The big battery draw is that they went with the P series processors for the 2022 lineup, later offering the U series. In 2023 they have the U series processors as the primary, so battery life and thermals should be better. However, I think it is time for some updates to the design and thermals. Maybe for the new 14th Gen Intel next year we will see some changes with PCIE 5 and the supposed new AI coprocessors coming from AMD and Intel. I would also like to see this move to a 2.5k display vs the 4K. I know OLED is great but a good 2.5k panel would save battery and still give you a crisp image, just not as much pop as OLED

@patrickheemskerk2649 Жыл бұрын
As there aren't any full-reviews of the gen-8 version (yet), I really liked to watch this review of it's predecessor. Curious to know if you will get a gen-8 OLED for review...and if the gen-8 is worth the upgrade...? Many sites show the available specs of the gen-8 with a max of 64 Gb of RAM but on the Lenovo site you won't find it...maybe you can 😃😉 Keep the reviews coming! 👍

Just got it a week ago, top-config with 4K OLED, 32GB RAM, i7 1260p, and what can I say... hot and loud, even with some basic tasks like youtube video or a zoom call... The only mode it doesn't get hot and loud is power efficiency, which makes everything buggy and slow. And even in this mode the battery life is like 3hr top. Is there something wrong with my unit?

Great Review as always Andrew--- Super Professional and smooth production👌👌 If anyone is thinking about using any of these "Lenovo" products in a Corporate Environment, Forget that right now. Most all Airline, Government, and major companies have banned all Chinese Tech [specifically these Laptops] from their networks. Soon Lenovo will be banned as well, I am sorry to say. Samsung is the way to go to replace these Lenovo products.

Gen 6 has worse Webcam, sharper edges that can get uncomfortable, and older ddr ram and wifi technology. However it is cooler to the touch and has slightly better battery life.
@yangli_ox_cal_wh 8 ай бұрын
I just bought an 8th gen, and the trackpad is horrible. When my fingers get a bit sweaty, the friction is high, and the pointer is sometimes not moving, and I need to press my finger really hard against it to force it to react. It's really disappointing for a supposedly premium laptop. Lenovo just has too many product lines to keep each one of them reliable. Also, the pen is too thin to use.
@timb6985 Жыл бұрын
Thanks, Andrew. What do you think about the TP X1 Yoga gen 7 vs Yoga 9i. Is this a bit of a more expensive (corporate) version of a lesser expensive (home) convertible? What features (aside from the TrackPoint) are over-and-above the Yoga 9i?
@andrewmarcdavid Жыл бұрын
The durability on the thinkpad will be better because of the MIL-STD 810H Rating. But the Yoga 9i is built really well so it comes down to whether you need consumer features such as the rotating sound bar etc.

Im getting about 4-5 hrs of real world use off this battery. 1250p i5 chip, 1920x1200 IPS screen. Top left gets warm and fans are on (but pretty quiet) half of the time with typical daily use. Got a pretty good deal on it and I like everything else about it, but the above two issues are pretty disappointing, especially the battery life.

@@gabrielbuatois6951 A bit late (Had troubles w/KZfaq sign in after a Windows reload). The i5/16/512 is more than enough for my wife's needs. As always, it depends on your use case. There aren't any G6, i7s currently listed so I don't know what screen was available. Personally, I think that the 4K screen is too much for the 14" form factor--again, depends on your use case (and eyes!).

I have this very laptop for work. It was an upgrade from the Gen 4. Compared to the G4, this Gen 7 has absolutely atrocious battery life. It’s an i5 with 16GB of RAM, but it would last half as long as the G4. The fan is constantly spinning when I’m doing emails and Word documents and it gets unbelievably hot to touch. Avoid this model altogether. I hope the newer models are better.
