In terms of the battery life, it's debatable, but I always thought that OLED displays consume more power that IPS ones. The dark theme helps, but still. 5 hours somewhat disappointing, where inside the product specification they claim more than 10hours for diff workloads(though they use IPS there)
@@NicksTech no I'm going to return it. I need something with at least 8-10hr battery life that's thin and lightweight. I was hoping Lenovo would update with new bios or power updates but nothing so far.
What resolution/scaling you running in this video? Can you show a close up clip with at its native 1800p as well as no scaling? Like to see how the text appears on websites and Windows menus.
Sorry, i ended up returning it. I had set it to 125% scaling and it was decent text viewing size. I remember going smaller and it was harder to read...
For outdoors, either is fine I guess but for better battery experience, I'd stick with regular IPS. 4K IPS might be same as OLED version, I have not tested the 4K.
I have X1 Carbon Gen 8 4K and its glossy. I don't get more than 3-4hrs and I don't think they very much usable than their IPS counterpart. I personally think 1440p is a good balance between screen real estate and battery timing, and anything over 14" should have a 1440p as standard in 2022. But they difficult to come by in that 16:10 aspect ration.
Did a 7hr video Microsoft teams session and it died around 4 hours, I was doing this as a test with one of my calls. Wasn't a great experience, just got the z13 and will try a similar test and post.
@@bora8254 is better than X1 gen10. Battery life is amazing on OLED screen, a bit heavier, performance was good, heat issues similar to X1, camera is similar, sound is better on X1, ports are better on X1.
I am looking for a laptop oled for internet and movies. What do you think about the ThinkPad X1 OLED gen 4 ? Also Asus 2022 is great with oled but is pricey especially the 16 " art pro model.
@@justbekos28 for me 6 hours of office work usage is really aceptable for an oled, with a normal IPS, i think 8 - 10 hours is the average battery life.
Display:14" 2.8K (2880 x 1800) OLED, anti-reflective, anti-smudge, 400 nits, low blue-light try google the reslution + aspect ratio and you get answer :>
You could have cleaned and wiped the screen before performing the outdoor test. But hey, Merry Christmas!

yes, it is disappointing to see a very low battery output from this year's X1
So are you keeping it?

Hi, How's the glare on it? I just purchase it with OLED screen and I'm a little bit nervous! Thanks
The glare was not bad. I've seen worse on Dell XPS and others. At full brightness outdoors it was still readable.
When you returned it what did you end up buying then?
I waited and bought the carbon X1 gen 11

Oled 2.8k vs IPS 4k:
Which one is better? For Outdoor Experience? For my eyes if i use my laptop 8 hour a day? I only use vscode for all time

Video meetings take a lot of battery. I'm not sure how many laptops would be able to survive 4 hour straight. Has anyone tested this?

@@justbekos28how is your experience with Z13 so far ?

@@safugpac2691 I would look at other OLED models with AMD processor. Z13 was great for me. I will be putting up a review on that.
Do you find that OLED fatigue the eyes and uncomfortable to use for long time?
I did not notice this, I've used it straight for about 4-6 hours on video calls and for regular emails.
@@justbekos28 hello !! thank you for your video! What!? 6 hours for office work its very nice for an oled, are you sure? :D
@@renzoarana3018 yes very low battery for X1 carbon gen 10 especially the OLED version.
@@justbekos28 for me 6 hours of office work usage is really aceptable for an oled, with a normal IPS, i think 8 - 10 hours is the average battery life.
display is 60hz or 90hz or more?
60hz, you get flickering with OLED as well.
The screen is 16:10, right?
Display:14" 2.8K (2880 x 1800) OLED, anti-reflective, anti-smudge, 400 nits, low blue-light
try google the reslution + aspect ratio and you get answer :>
Yes, that is correct
