Great review. I’d love to see you do a video on the 2024 HP Envy x360 16” with the Ryzen 7.

the last line made me buy it. great review

I have the 2022 model since Aug 2022 and it has been great. I daily drive it for work and video streaming and editing for my church. I got it for $1100 with a Ryzen 6800HS RTX 3050 4GB and 16/512GB. Following your review of the 2021 model I pulled the trigger as soon as this came out. Lenovo really crushed it with this laptop model. All the important fundamentals at a really solid price. Almost two years later of daily use and the hinges are still solid, its taken a few bumps and has a very minor dent on one edge, and the battery life is still decent around 8 hours of basic office work for me down from around 10 when it was brand new.

Another great and clear review... Could you please do a video about a 14"inch laptop around $1000?? (Specifically something with a 400nits screen, 1TB storage and 16/32GB RAM) I'd truly appreciate it.

Literally TODAY I found this laptop and was taking a closer look at it. Now Josh posts this video... lol Btw for me in Europe, I can spec it up to a Core Ultra 9 with 32gb of RAM. Sadly no dedicated graphics on the 14" tho

Hey Josh, can you please make a review about Framework 13 vs Mackbook pro 14??👍🏼

I bought the 2021 version of this laptop (after watching Josh's video). It's indeed a good allrounder for the price. I upgraded to a MacBook Pro M1 Max for video editing reasons last year. Even after upgrading, I still think this is a good laptop and the keyboard is better than that of a MacBook to me. But the MacBooks do have some magic that I truly appreciate. The long battery life, no fan noise, not getting warm. Oh and my Lenovo had this super annoying issue (it is a Windows issue actually - Linus made a video about it) that the laptop actually went into clam shell mode (so it stayed on) when I close the laptop with the charger still plugged in. Sometimes I opened my laptop again after 3 hours from my laptop case and it was glowing hot 🔥 the webcam was already not good back then, shame it's still that bad. But overall I can recommend this laptop and just wanted to share my experience. Hope it helps someone!

I got a variant of this IdeaPad with Ryzen 7840HS at work a few months back. I was so impressed with the whole package and the price that I recently ordered the refreshed 2024 model with Ryzen 8845HS for home use. Students and employees of science / educational institutions should check if they can get an edu rebate or one of the special configurations available to these select customers. I took a leap of faith and slapped Manjaro Linux on that nice little machine. So far everything just works; but there are a few settings that can only be changed with Lenovo's app under Windows (such as the threshold for charging the battery).

@@gustavoduarte9677 Like the review sample in the video, my laptop got the 2560x1600 IPS display. It is good but not great. In my humble opinion decent for work and play, and surprisingly good motion clarity at 120Hz refresh rate. Black levels are okay but not outstanding. I suspect the product designers at Lenovo leaned a bit towards a "gamer-y" display, but I find the compromise a fairly good one all in all.

This looks solid, will there be a review of Lenovo's LOQ series and MSI Katana 15's?

Hello Josh, thanks for your review, what about the 14inch version of this laptop ? I'm hesitating between this one and the HP pavillon Plus 14 as well as the Yoga 9i (which is quite more expensive here in Europe)... I plan to use my pc mostly for multimedia / browing the internet but I also need a fast CPU because I do casual music production on Ableton Live (with quite a lot of virtual instruments playing at the same time). Thanks in advance !

I have the previous model of this laptop with the AMD 7840HS CPU and i am pretty happy with it. The speakers could be a little better, but overall its pretty good laptop for its price. It even has an extra M.2 slot so i put an extra 2TB SSD in it. And because i don`t have a GPU in mine just the 780M iGPU its kind of overkill on the cooling so it preforms very well.

Great review, Josh! This laptop is surely a good deal, but for me the mediocre webcam is a deal breaker, that and also having just 16GB of non-expandable memory.

Thank you this is exactly what I wanted. Maybe you can do a review of 14" too

@ruikus806

3 ай бұрын

Yeah, I agree. I feel like the 14" is also pretty good considering it's also got an 84 whr battery and the same cpu. I wonder how the temps would be though.

Its a little bit exceeded my budget limit and 16gb soldered ram is just not big enough to my liking, but i agree with you that the pricing is good even without discounts (which is very rare in my country). I will definietly consider this laptop for my new laptop. I have no problem with either amd or intel so i'll just choose the cheaper one that's available at the store 😅

I am really pleased with my Lenovo ideapad 5 pro 16 ( AMD Ryzen 7840HS ) - great screen with vibrant colours and a good looking palette. There is a fairly good Dolby sound onboard, but it sounds great when you install and turn on the brilliant DfX (13) sound enhancer software that automatically raises the level of all the finer and lower level parts of the spectrum without increasing the level of the more powerful parts. ( it litterally sounds, as if you have removed a pillow that was covering your speakers 😂). The keyboard and the trackpad also feel great, and you can even open it with just one hand. The screen feels very well attached to the bottom section - without any flimsyness or strong long lasting oscillations, as you so often see it on other (cheaper) models in general ( all brands! ). The only really annoying thing about this laptop is the very sharp front edge below the keyboard - that bit could have been designed much better with a just slightly rounded profile. And the USB power socket on my model ( without a dedicated graphics card ) could also be made more sturdy and "safer" ( with a deeper and more solid insertion ) instead of just an ordinary USB-C socket - it feels a bit fragile and very easy to break or bend accidentally, when you are sitting with this laptop on your lap.

RIP no magsafe

Hi what is your current take on eGPUs? Are they worth thinking about or are the laptops getting "too good" to buy one? I was thinking about switching from my desktop PC Setup (AMD Ryzen 5 3600X + RTX 3080) to either a powerfull laptop/slim notebook or a less powerfull laptop/ notebook + egpu for light gaming and Office/Uni Work (also some 3D Modeling in REVIT, etc.). Also I cant decide if i want a 14 Inch or 16 Inch Laptop. My friend keeps telling me that 16 Inch is not protable enougth but its better for cooling and performace..

I bought the Pro 5 model with 5600H, RTX 3050 and 120 Hz screen a couple of years a go (you recommended that one too) and it seems that this model has not seen that many upgrades over the years. Sure, the cpu is new but overall not really that many improvements in the same chassis. But what is there is definitely practical and the looks pass for a professional laptop even if you are actually playing new titles. Would I buy it again? I'd might, since there really aren't that many competitors with these specs at that price range. It's a jack of all trades. Though that Legion Slim 7 looks more like something that would've actually covered my use case better as a travel laptop for light gaming with occasional work done on it.

One thing to note about this laptop is, unlike most laptops, the keyboard is not a simple replacement if a chicklet key becomes faulty. The standard replacement procedure is to replace the entire top of the laptop. For this the Lenovo repair depot will charge you a couple hundred dollars - even if on extended warranty. The laptop works great until you need it to be serviced. They wanted £208 to repair mine, which I declined, and it came back with a big dent in the corner. Unimpressed with Lenovo warranty and repair service.

You really need to review the MINISFORUM V3, the future of PC laptops is here.

bought one with the intel ultra 5 and it works great for gaming and editing, and it was only 700 when i bought one, considering i got it from eBay.

I want to know what the TGP is for the 3050 in the 14 inch AMD version of this ideapad

Do you know the LG gram 17’’ 2023 with a screen that has the same resolution as this Lenovo Ideapad Pro? At the same cost (about 1.000€) and very similar hardware specifications, between the two, which do you prefer in terms of screen quality and overall build quality? Thank you, excellent review.

Please review the equivalent amd yoga pro 7 2024 version. It's got the really good panel option and 14.5" screen could be the new sweet spot

I have the ryzen 5 5600h version. Great value in overall but I do face some issues with it. The wifi card occasionally lost connection (cant find it in device manager). I also have a weird youtube buffering issue that I've not yet solved. It's not an internet speed issue though, probably a graphics issue.

Hi I would like to ask for a comparison between the zenbook 14x and this one

I want to ask weather the honge will last and if it is included in warranty because i heard that past IdeaPads hinges breaks

How about the 14" version?

It is actually so good, because it delivers what it promises. No throttling, no too hot surface, no comprise on the battery, sufficient port selection, good value. It is that simple. It does not promise luxury or perfection, just what you actually need from a laptop.

I'm sure it's a great laptop, but you're right, I can't get over the numpad

I am just suprised why the ideapad pro 5 16 inch gen 8 version never got reviewed. It was around €800 and it had the very succesful Ryzen 7 7840hs

Well, it looks like we've reached the point where we can say Ideapad 5s are usually good buys. It takes a few generations of decent products to do that. It was the Zenbook 14 before, but now this Ideapad has followed up on it's previous promises for how many years straight? There were some bumps, but nothing ever damning. I just want to thank the first(?) Ideapad 5 14" for making this possible. Heck, let me thank the Flex 5 with the Ryzen 4500 too lol

Is there a way to get this laptop in Europe, with the Ryzen 7 8845HS and the RTX 4050?

It's a very fair price for a mid-range laptop. However, I would suggest the Galaxy Book4 (15.6 inches), which is similar in price in the UK, £1100, with Core Ultra 7/512GB/16GB/MX570. It's sold out at the moment. Both get deals now and then, so look for £1000. The £649 8GB/256GB Book4 is cheaper for light users like my parents (in their 80s), who only use it for browsing and media. Again, that is sold out, and I suspect this is because the Book4 is the most popular mid-range ultrabook out at the moment.

Lenovo has also recently fixed the power drainage problems in hibernation mode, that many laptop models ( also from other brands! ) have been suffering from, and many customers have been complaining a lot about. Now we can come back to our two Lenovo ideapad 5 pro 16 laptops ( 5600H & 7840HS ) after having them in hibernation mode for several days ( 2 - 3 ), and they will still have the same (!) charge level that we closed them down at.

Hi Josh & Team, love and appreciate your reviews for the trust you've built in your process. Recommendation: Please look more into 'color accuracy', you're conflating it with color gamut coverage and it really misleads consumers. DCI-P3 coverage is only required for HDR for most consumers, and just having 100% coverage says absolutely nothing about whether it's accurate. Also 100% sRGB gamut coverage should be clearly stated as the standard for all non-HDR Content, and accuracy within sRGB (or any other color space) should be reported separately using a colorimeter. Finally, manufacturers must provide software to switch between color spaces depending on the content, otherwise SDR will look over-saturated.

Even though there has been no accidental damage, their customer service dictates this as a “customer induced damage” when I complained.

if you dont game and dont need 16 inch display then take the zenbook. I own this laptop with 1650 and r7 5800 myself. It's amazing

​@@Babigoldfish unsure about @fighter-yo3di but i code a lot and want to game as well. josh's latest video on the asus zenbook 14 had me second-guessing because he recommends the spectre 14 over it, but am not really into 2-in-1 laptops/touch screen ones.

I got it renewed for $700 with a 2 year warranty, was it a good choice?

Any chance you'll review the 14" version with the OLED panel?
