Good review! I, too, will end up getting one (also switching from ASUS cause of a display issue- I think they have too many quality control issues). My first choice was the Legion Slim 5 14 though since you can get that for about the same price; it has a 100W 4060 along with more ports, while just adding 250g to the weight.
Thanks for the review - very little out there about this laptop right now. You say this can't handle graphic intensive tasks but I presume you just mean the spec you went for? If you upgrade to dedicated nvdia graphics presumably this will be more than capable? I'm interested in this for photo processing.
Hi, thank you for the review! I would like to buy it with the same configuration as yours but with the Ultra 9 processor. Do you think that it will increase the performance? do you think it will decrease significantly battery life? Thank you
It will increase performance but not substantially as the heating of the laptop will eventually bog down the huge increase in cpu performance. Battery life will decrease but not significantly if you use the laptop for easy day-to-day tasks
Hello I recently bought a new laptop, Lenovo Yoga pro 7 AMD Ryzen 7 and Nvidia RTX 6 GB graphics card. When I played Counter Strike for the first time everything was fine and everything worked well. When I opened the game for the second time it was very slow in the game and also before the game (when you select the game etc..) I need a Solution Thank you
Is your computer running at performance settings or optimized? If it's optimized, you might want to change it to performance so that your computer knows that it needs to run at the highest settings possible.
@@xavierl0h Hello Thanks for your answer I found out today that it's only like that with battery mode. If the laptop is plugged in it gets a lot better. Is it normal that the performance of games is different with battery mode?
Don’t think there’s any screen wobble. The screen is sturdy enough even when using it with touch. The screen is a bit glossy under direct sunlight but content is still readable under direct sunlight.
Hello, do you think that if I buy this computer with an Intel core ultra 9 and an rtx 4060 it will be able to handle tasks like gaming, video editing and 3D creation ?
@@arc1822 hi, it should be able to handle with the specs that you are planning to buy. Although, it depends on how intense your 3D creation is as the laptop may heat up during intense workloads
Thanks for your review, I own the same laptop but with nvdia 4050 graphics and OLED Screen However i don’t have Adaptive refresh rate 60vs120hz also my unit does not comes with an ambient light sensor Could you check these in your unit
Mine does not come with an ambient light sensor as well. What you saw was the windows hello sensor. The adaptive refresh rate can be found in settings under display
Also , did you manage to test the SSD speed ? mine shows around 5000 MB/S Read and 4000+/MB/S Write speed I think your once should have a M.2 2280 vs mine M.2 2242 both seems to be PCIe gen 4 but speed might very Appreciate if you can check and revert
Hey there xavier, mau I ask how about the battery life and the thermals with the new core ultra chip? I heard that it is hugely improved, how about in your experience?,
Thermals have been pretty good as the fan rarely kicks in. As for battery life, it is certainly an improvement over the i7 chips as I do see around a 7-8 hours battery life during less-intensive workflows
For graphical intensive workloads, it does thermal throttling a bit with the computer getting a bit hot. For CPU intensive workloads, I have only heard the fan kicking in without the laptop really heating up
@@xavierl0h if I set maximum performance in Lenovo vantage and max performance in windows 11 battery settings I get 2227 in single core and 5876 in multi core with my 14“ thinkbook i5 1335u (unplugged from AC)

This is the battery life test that everyone in the comments has been waiting for
Nice review dude! I’ve been looking for reviews on the Pro 7i, as there aren’t many...
Thank you for the kind words!

Yes definitely. I would suggest getting the laptop spec with the Nvidia 4060 or 4070 if you need the laptop for photo processing.

Is it normal that the performance of games is different with battery mode?
@@nadimjouni1400 yes, it significantly reduces performance since it wants to maximise battery life.
hey, i was thinking of buying this laptop with the same configurations as you did. How long did the battery last for light use?
@@aadityabhat1069 for light use, I see about 7-8 hours of battery life. A battery test for this laptop is currently in the works
@xavierl0h thank you. your video was very helpful:)
It's been a while, welcome back!
Very good review! Just want to ask if there is noticeable screen wobble, and is the screen glossy in the level of MacBook or less or more

hi so i have just bought this laptop but with a intel i9 ulta and 4060 and i was wondering how significant the battery llife will be effected
@@ben-k7q7u battery life will definitely be reduced due to a better CPU and a dedicated graphics card
Are there 2 SSD slots like Yoga Pro 9i or just one for the Nvidia graphics card variant?
Nope, just one
@@xavierl0h Can we atleast install a 2TB 2280 in the graphics card varient?
@@cyberpunk247 you prob can’t as it’s soldered on

There’s a dynamic option under display settings if you can see it
Mine is about 4500+ read and 3000+ write. This speed is when the laptop is not being plugged in.

@@xavierl0h is it as hot as the g14 or cooler? And how much battery life does it pack for less intensive workloads?
I would say it is cooler than the g14 due to the lack of a dedicated GPUz. Battery life for less-intensive workflows is about 7-8 hours
Excellent review !!!
how many hours did you get on this laptop plz?
7-8 hours with light usage, currently filming a battery test for the laptop
can this flip into a tablet?
@@bloxxycola nope, it only flips to 180
5:49 Multi Core is impressive but single core seems to be very low. My 1335u hat over 2000 for single core
Ohh dang. I might have to retest my laptop again and see if it still gives such a low score for single core. Will give a status update.
@@xavierl0h if I set maximum performance in Lenovo vantage and max performance in windows 11 battery settings I get 2227 in single core and 5876 in multi core with my 14“ thinkbook i5 1335u (unplugged from AC)
@@limebulls let me try that setting as well.
@@xavierl0h after repasting the cpu and running geekbench twice I even got 2243 / 7057 with geekbench 6.3 (no AC)👍
did some testing today, seems like the single core score significantly improves when I put it to performance mode.
