“Pricing starts at $1699 which is pretty insane considering all the premium features this thing packs”. Except the base model has zero premium features aside from fast ram. So yeah… basic ips monitor, i5, integrated graphics, 16gb ram, 512gb storage for $1699 is pretty insane. Also sad.
Pretty sure you won't be able to get it with only integrated graphics.. Base model is 4050 right?
He’s got the configuration options up at at 9:41 and says Intel arc graphics or 4050 so I think base is just internal graphics?
That's "the "this product was sent by Lenovo" catch. Like not mentioning that 49 DBis of noise on a 16' with an Ultra CPU is not great at all.
Yeah, for this price we can get Legion Slim 7 with 4060-4070
@@blondegirl7240 Right? I get that it’s not a gaming laptop but a professional laptop that can game but the base model can’t even do that so you’re paying only for looks. But then why not get a vivobook? Might not quite have the Apple snob appeal but it still looks good and entirely appropriate for professional work. Also $1699 but for this model…
Intel Core i9 13th Gen 13900H 1.9GHz Processor
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6
32GB DDR4 RAM
1TB Solid State Drive
Microsoft Windows 11 Home
SD 4.0 Card Reader
2x2 Wi-Fi 6E+Bluetooth 5.0
16" 3.2K OLED 120Hz Display
Slower ram but twice as much. Twice the storage. The faster uhs-II card reader and drastically better specs and screen. Also the 99wh battery. Same price as the Lenovo base model that has basically zero of the features mentioned in this “overview”.
I think you should indicate this is a sponsored video somewhere before the 1:00 minute mark of the video; in the title, at the top of the description
agreed, Should be a lot easier to see.
I didn't even realise it was sponsored as I jumped straight to the bits I was interested in.
Huge red flag tbh.
He starts out saying that he partnered with Lenovo to showcase the laptop 🤔
I think since they have chapters, the people that skip to what they want it is not obvious to them. Think if they had a watermark that it's sponsored by whomever the whole video would be better. Not just HW but every sponsored video. @christhe812
@@christhe812 At the one minute mark... which is what I said in my comment
After seeing what Dell is doing with the XPS 16, I'm very happy that this exists.
Microsoft gotta stop trying to push copilot.
It’s not that big of a deal. People gotta stop being so dramatic
@@raminMTLi’m saying…everyone is gonna use it eventually
Yea it's pretty good, I just wish they can use more of a mini-window size for it rather than 1/3 of the screen.
And edge ... Edge is a nuisance no one wants
@@BR0KK85Edge is pretty decent tho, and better than Chrome so 🤷♂️
All fun and games until the price reveal.
Starting at $1699, so you mean that's $1699 for the version with no dedicated GPU? Good Lord.
What do you mean exactly? I believe the Base laptop configuration has a 4050
@@SOG989 It seems the base model has Intel integrated graphics.
@@SirCaco 😆 my bad, you're right LoooL my brain couldn't imagine buying this with no dGPU. Honestly I just find it funny but I guess someone out there wouldn't mind
the one with a rtx 4070 and 64gb ram and 2gb ssd costs 2400 francs in Switzerland. Frankly, it's not expensive at all the asus g14 with 16gb and rtx 4070 costs the same, and the lenovo has a 120hz miniled screen.
@@tamasvarga9862 I'm not surprised you find it inexpensive, since Switzerland's minimum wage is 5 thousand dollars a month.
Hey! Great video. Any idea why Lenovo is only selling the model with the 4060 right now? Can't find this model with the 4070 on their site. Thanks!
hows the performance difference against the bigger laptop such as legion 5 or 7? would it still perform lower?
No 14 inch model is crazy, hope they bring it back next year.
I hope that they plan to refresh it this year, but a bit later. The model with 13th gen intel CPUs is less than 6 months old
There is a Pro 7i 14
Looks great! Did you have time to check the battery performance? I'm curious: what is the drop in performance when you unplug it from the wall.
Battery life upgrade is big W. Hopefully* you can charge via Type C like the Legion laptops at 140W.
Yes you can charge via USB C through the Thunderbolt 4 port on the left side which can also be used as DisplayPort 1.4
im excited for my framework 16 that can charge 240w over type c
It is an upgrade compared to the rubbish battery life we got on Intel 13th gen, but compared with AMD and Apple, it is still playing catch up.
@@andyH_Englandcompared to the Yoga Slim 7. It's pretty much there already.
@@andyH_England
watch his MacBook Pro 16 in the same test got same BATTERY LIFE like Intel
@@andyH_Englandwatch his Zenbook 14 review.
I red on notebookcheck that the Power adapter is to weak under heavy load and the Laptop drains the battery. Can you confirm this? I primary want to Game on this beautiful Mini LED Panel. But this would be a No-Go for me. Ty very much
Any word on the 4070 model with 64 GB in the US? The Lenovo site shows only 4060 and 32 GB available for purchase. I'm anxious to get my hands on one.
Thnx for the video! How does this compare to the T16 G3?
how does it looks in competition to the new 16“ dell xps?
Hi from Argentina. Many thanks, very thorough review. Do you know when is going to be available to for buying it in the US? Many thanks
So, the base model is without RTX GPU?
How come your gaming noise levels are so different from Dave2D's results when you have the same laptop? A 10 dB difference is MASSIVE.
Maybe mic at head head-level vs right up to the laptop
@@JoshCravesTech Even with that factored in, the gap is too large, as I said 10+ dB is a MASSIVE difference since it's a logarithmic scale. Dave2D said it was virtually silent while gaming, and 45-47 dB as stated in this video is quite audible.
@@nikolajavorina yeah I wonder… maybe Lenovo pushed an update for better thermals at a higher noise level.
I would double check Dave’s video since it was also sponsored.
@@nikolajavorina also another thing is maybe Dave didn’t let the fans fully kick in. I know the Legion Pro 7i’s I’ve tested will start off pretty quiet in their turbo profile for about 5 minutes, and then the fans will pulse up to 48-50 dB for a few and then back down and then back up, etc.
How does one know they are actually shopping for the 2023 version as stated in this video? Can you provide a link right to the customize screen within the Lenovo website if it’s only available there for now.
Would love to see this compared side by side to the Asus g16 2024
Same🎉
g16 has loud fan noise
I cannot wait for this laptop to come out. I want to buy a laptop RIGHT FREAKING NOW and cannot wait 2 more months for this one to come out.
Thanks for the video! Can I ask about the fan noise at idle? I had the 2023 14 inch version of this laptop and it emits a high pitched whiny fan noise even when the computer is doing only light tasks. Do the fans come on during light tasks and how loud are they?
I have the 2023 14 inch model as well and haven't experienced that. I haven't push it hard with games but I've definitley done light tasks and have not noticed a high pitch
Is the battery really that good 9 hours i just ordered mine did test the battery are those your results andwhat settings to achieve that
Hello there, I have a 2023 Pro 9i with 4060 on board. I bought it as refurb and having an issue while switching from integrated graphics to 4060. I already tried 2 of those laptops is there some procedure how to switch beteween those GPUs, as when I stop playing Civ V and want to go back to Integrated GPU my screen is flickering and mouse is moving like I have 2 fps.
Great video, thanks. Following your link, it seems Lenovo is still offering both the Yoga and Slim, contrary to your comment they are dropping Slim. Lenovo: You have too many models and variations; give people a break by simplifying the product line, and make more money by not offering so many options >>> Paradox of Choice freezes buyers in their tracks.
That battery improvement is AMAZING
I'm hoping there was a bit of a mistake with the pricing slide, because $1699 for Arc grapics and 16gb ram with a normal IPS display is really expensive. Even if you mean CAD, that's not a great price.
true at that price just get MacBook which is vastly superior
@@TheMr82kno
For the same price you can get a last year Legion Slim 5 with 4050 and Ryzen 7840HS. Who cares about external look when you can get a better performance with the same price
Halloo i want buy Lenovo laptop but i dont know which i buy i must chose one from two this models New Yoga Pro 7i Gen 9 (14" Intel) OR Yoga Pro 7i 14 (i7-Windows 11 Home-16GB-1TB-RTX 4050) ??? thanks
Awesome review! Looking to upgrade my x1 carbon to either this or zephyrus g16. What would be your pick given top specs for yoga and 4070 g16? Any plns to bring these two side by side
The G16 is lighter, thinner, has more battery capacity and a better display if you like to game. Also, the build quality should be better with CNC aluminum
@@matiriquelme293had very good experience with lenovo so far, concerned about asus’ reliability, especially in humid/hot environment and frequent travelling. I agree g16 looks way more superior to pro 9i in almost every aspect, though the screen seams to wobble a lot from what i’ve seen
G16 is way better
G16 is lighter and has brighter display(500nit)
Yoga pro9i is cheaper and quieter
And touch fuction is available
Did I miss the part about user-upgradable ram and the number of m.2 slots?
curious how this compares to something like the framework 16 i preordered (batch 5)
probly hard to compare because of the option difference with the framework
I'm nitpicking here, but isn't the contrast between the keys and the laptop too low, to the point where it's hard to see the keys? I know certain light grey colorways from ASUS are notorious for this, so was wondering if this Lenovo Yoga Pro might have the same issue.
Is this laptop sold in canada? Cant seem to find it on lenovo's site
Was the screen tested in HDR mode? Noticed any blooming?
does yoga pro 9i 2024 will have 14.5 inch version like last year??
love my intel 11th gen yoga.. its my daily driver for work.. the battery life is great for long work hours
arguably im closer to this compared to desktop, many things been done w this, will be sad when this finally joins 'military'
Confused by this. Just got the 14 inch Lenovo Yoga 9i (OLED) and wanted to find out if a larger lightweight version of my laptop is coming out in 2024. This video came up But I dont think mine is a Slim so I can not tell if a new version of THIS computer is coming out in 2023.
Huh. Might actually go with this now as the WinPC thin laptop of choice. Been looking for four years after holding out with an old work Dell and this seems like the thing I've been looking for to complement my MacBook Air.
I am personally eyeing the new Asus ROG g16. it seems to beat this guy in every category.
@@quantumdot7393 Same mate! Definitely picking the g16 over this. Better 240Hz OLED display 🤤, better build (CNC aluminium) and design with no silly numpad, higher GPU options (up to RTX 4090) and a bigger battery as well in a device that's still thinner and lighter.
@@fidelisitor8953 yea exactly but honestly i wish the g16 had a numpad. it can be useful sometimes and the sides looks so empty without one. overall not a deal breaker. Also a 4090 is not going to be good value i wouldn't go above the 4080
@@fidelisitor8953I agree with everything, but I think lenovo is CNC machined as well, as far as I know(I am no expert) they can’t make the rounded edges with other methods. I have the 14 inch Pro X AMD model and judging by feel, I think it’s CNCed and anodized as well.
@@quantumdot7393 Don't like numpads because they push the main keyboard off to the right which makes it harder to type on and it also looks ugly. As for the 4090, it's still going to be useful for those (like me) that need that extra VRAM for stuff like 3d modelling.
Can I turn off dGPU on this thing? Does it have g-synch?
Clearly this is a good laptop for developers. So it is interesting to comment on the eye-strain with this 165Hz mini-LED display. Also comment on the CPU temperature and fan noise db, when
a) coding (what is battery life then?)
b) compiling using Visual Studio (battery life)
c) running some numerically intensive code such as Geekbench 6 or Cinebench (battery life)
How its battery life compares with HP Spectre x360 14 inch 2024 (sound and cpu temperature)
How does it compare with ASUS Zenbook 14 2024 155H?
How does it compare with similar laptops using AMD Ryzen 7840U in terms of battery life, CPU temps and fan noise.
Will there be a 2024 refresh of the Slim 7 series that have AMD?
But can it goto sleep after lod close and not wake up in the background?
In the US (at the moment at least) you can't get one with the 4070. Best Buy will be selling them, but be sure to read the specs closely, because they often sell models that are slightly different than what's available straight from the manufacturer. Also, Costco sells this, but they're actually selling the 2023 model.
Hey, from the PSREF documentation on Lenovo, there seems to be no option with a glossy touch screen and a 4070 GPU. Which model did you test?
Yes in Korea too, there is no4070 model with glass panel
Badly waiting for this Video mainly to know about two things, one is the battery and other to know whether it's good to wait for Lunar Lake which is being said to have 3x NPU performance compared to this one.
For now, only the variant with no dedicated graphics is available in my country. Is it still a good choice for mild design and video editing, or should I wait for the dedicated graphics variant?
wait
@@Sparx101 Short and concise. Thank you.
Ugh.. we lose the right control key for the "Copilot" keu - couldn't they have have doubled it up with the right-menu key?
Will these be an hx model?
Isn't it thicker, heavier and has less battery capacity than the zephyrus G16?
Exactly my thoughts. The new g16 would be a much better buy than this lenovo.
@fidelisitor8953
G16 2024 is much better.
@@fidelisitor8953 if you watch JushJosh's review it actually has the same performance as the G16 but produces less heat and fan noise so 🤷♂ion know whatchu guys are waffling about lol
No Windows Hello or Fingerprint reader in,.....2024? Why do these manufacturer *UTTERLY FAILS* to include such an important hardware feature?
🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Windows facial recognition via camera + ir and pin
Any bloatwares/ spywares???
Hi, Any idea, about, Can it do 4k Vedio editing?
Goodbye Dell.
i wonder what the battery life is with the arc gpu
Hey, can you review Lenovo Ideapad 5i Gen 9 with Intel Core Ultra 7 155H with Rtx 4050 graphics?
This would the perfect gaming Notebook for me. Because it is very silent. But i think 3,2k is to much for the 4070 with 128 bit und 8gb ram :(. Is the 4070 140 Watts?
Pen support?
Have 2023 model. Bottom made of plactics and always has extra noise when touch the body. Also the sounds craks every time on low volume. Seems because of the plastic bottom. Also had a problem with low perfomance (improved by stopping Nvidei Container service). Screen is so glossy, can't see when sunlight. And the light from the keyboard always reflects on the screen.
Sir, you safed my money.
You should also make a video on Yoga Pro 7i
do you know the percentage of the color gamuts
hi, would you choose Lenovo - Yoga Pro 9i 16" 3.2K Touchscreen Laptop - Intel Core Ultra 9 185H with 32GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 - 1TB SSD - Luna Grey for $1899 or Lenovo - Slim Pro 9i 14.5" 3k MiniLED Touchscreen Laptop - Core i7-13705H with 32GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 - 1TB SSD - Storm Grey for $1399. Both in Best Buy. Thank you.
Damn I was hoping for the 14 inch to get upgraded, you'd think they'd keep it around given the popularity of the Asus G14
There is a Pro 7i 14'
same. I bought last years version but It had a screen issue and I had to give it back. The only issues with it was that screen issue (obviously), and the battery life kinda sucked. Kind of disappointed I was really crossing my fingers for this one
@@sampadkar19 Yea, But Pro 7i is limited to like 16 or 32GB RAM. Why can't we have 64GB RAM on a 14" and an RTX 4070 or 4080? Without OLED and burn-ins?
@@benji_builder What model had screen issues? And what were the issues? Was it an OLED screen?
The 14" Gen 8 version. It wasn't an oled screen it was the miniLED. In 120hz mode the screen would flicker (when using the intel processor), but connected to a monitor there would be no issues - leading me to believe it was more than a drivers issue. I did a lot of digging and noticed it was quite a common problem and saw that other people had refunded theirs, so I did so too.@@eladbari
What do you mean " premium features for 1700 $ " ?
By the time you select those premium features you are at least down to 3000 $ and that is a premium price as well .
Why would they get rid of 14inch model? It was perfect size for portability for so many users.
Where is that wallpaper from?
Are the fans off in Browsing/Yt?
For an windows laptop this lenovo model is awesome. In my region it is priced at ~2500€.
What do you think about this model compated to the macbook pro m3 max ? Price difference is of ~1000€. I've found m3 max at the same price as m3 pro.
The laptop will be used for programming, daily tasks, probably some LLM, AI in the near future. Thinking about doing cross platform development also, but not 100% sure (only if i go with macOS will include iOS also).
What do you think it is a good long term option?
Does it support a stylus ?
Review the ideapad pro 5 series and other budget friendly laptops
Hey I just wanted to ask whether 3d design softwares like solid works run smoothly on base line m2 air?
Not smooth
Will run very smooth
So instead of using some one the many Fxx keys they choose to remove the right CTRL key and replace it with the copilot key ? 😡
yeah but the great glossy screen is only available up to 4060?? why not have the good screeen with the 4070, makes no sense
I still wish I could have gotten my Slim Pro 9i in tidal teal in the states
Hi, can I add an extra M.2 SDD? I've seen reviews that showed there was an extra slot but I don't seem to see it here. Thank you!
there's a slot under each fan
@@VTeixex I already bought one. Btw only m2 PCIe compatible, not sata.
Do a asus zypherus 16 2024
I really hope lenovo makes an AMD version when strix point comes out.
Strix point after Arrow and Lunar Lake laptops.
Still going to be crushed by apple silicon IF THEY KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
Please make a comparison video between lenovo ultra vs samsung ultra.
I wish they have more nvme slot.
Hopefully they fixed the trackpad. That ish was sensitive af.
Please review the Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5 14IMH9. Similar to the Asus Zenbook 14 OLED, but no one has reviewed the Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5 at all, although it should be a worthy competitor to Asus.
That slim?
This only comes with a 4060 in the US markets, it is not available in the 4070 configuration.
Thanks for the Ad.....
second m2 slot?
I want their 2-in-1 to have a 4070!
This only comes with a RTX 4050 and 4060? No RTX 4070 is available?
I’m hugely looking forward to the second gen of Ultra chips - I never like buying 1st gen products cuz there tend to be large optimization gains in the follow up, even if the chip itself remains virtually unchanged. I just hope the Yoga line stays focused on efficiency and portability at the expense of raw performance - for years, I’ve been wanting a laptop that has performance maybe no better than a 3-4 yr old model, but has put all its improvements into efficiency, so I can get a machine with 100%+ longer battery life that actually lasts all day in the field.
I feel like Intel was promising that for years, and, sure, they did get much more efficient, but they sucked it all up with greater performance, resulting in higher TPDs overall. Im hopeful that with the Ultra line we can actually get some falling TPDs
Good thing they changed the pricing. You can get a Ultra 7 155H, IPS panel, and RTX40506gb for only about 1482 with 16gb Ram and 512gb storage
why no 32gb option ?
Gosh! There's NO Option for a 14" inch 4070 + 64GB option in 2024...?! 😢😢😢
Super amazing
Looks like best in class)
definitely definitely definitely remember to compare it with asus zephyrus G16 and you must compare these 2 laptop's speaker with Apple macbook pro 16 & 14. Please man do remember to do these because my buying decision depends on this T_T
You should definitely do a comparison between this and the MacBook pro 16
We will comparison when Core ULTRA series 2 Arrow Lake comes out this year because Core ULTRA series 1 Meteor Lake is not high performance CPU but it is FASTER than M2 Pro or m3 pro chip in video editing without dGPU help.
@@HDRPC who are "we"?
@@MrSiKO12 genuine RUclipsrs.
100 watt 4060 is same as 4070 so what's the point?
3:53 I know that It's semanitcs but you should call it Counter Strike 2 or CS2, not CS:GO 2
They are not ;listed in the US
Having such a tough decision, between this beast when it comes out, or just getting the 32gb 2tb ssd spectre x360
Difenetly get this one
the spectre has not nvidia gpus
If you want powerful dGPU so go with this otherwise HP spectre X360 2024 is better.
Avoid HP Spectre 16". I'm going to sent it back because it has poor performances and gets hot even in idle. Ah, mine comes with rtx 4050. Just ordered this lenovo, I'm waiting to see if there is any differenze.
@@HDRPC where did you find it? I can't seem to find this yoga
I dont know how much it cost but i am sure it still cheaper than razer blade 16 with same cpu and gpu combo,
