    Love the review as always. Just wanted to add one correction about the GPU, the RTX 3050 used in this AMD vesrion is the 2023 refresh with 6GB video memory as well, same as 4050. However, the performance deficiency is from the reduced 96 bit memory bus. If I remember correctly from your review in the website, the RTX 3050 6GB is basically a cut down RTX 3050 Ti with same 2560 CUDA Cores, upgraded 6GB GDDR6 video memory but a stripped down 96 Bit memory bust from 128 Bit of both 3050 and 3050 Ti, resulting around 5%-10% performance over the older 3050 4GB version.

    But i have a question, because i want to buy the lenovo yoga pro 7i with the i5 13500h because it seems to me like a nice choice.
    But im unsure because i can not find a lot about this model with that processor which also comes with integrated iris xe graphics.

      Thank you. You will get in trouble in direct sunlight, but apart from that, it will be fine. Not great, but ok!

    I was very confused about the gpu options, until I realized there is a Lenovo *Legion* Slim 7 lineup as well.
    I expect that one to be very exciting with a 100 W 4060, as long as it's priced well.
    This set is pretty impressive as one-stop "general use" notebooks, especially the 4050 one. Not my preference, I'd definitely spend about the same for something like a G14/15, but these definitely have a clear niche.

    • @NotebookcheckReviews
      @NotebookcheckReviews  Před rokem +5

      I think the G14/G15 might be more niche than these, no?

    Hi, I am trying to decide which version of this (Lenovo Yoga Pro 7) to get
    1 - Intel: I7-13700H + Iris Xe + 2.5K 90hz display
    2 - AMD: Ryzen 7 7735HS + RTX 3050 + 3K 120hz display
    Both are at the same price point and I am happy with the AMD version as the display spec looks nice on paper.
    The dedicated GPU is a plus but I don't aim to play games on it.
    My main concern is whether 7735HS is much worse than I7-13700H in performance.

    • @oberender64
      @oberender64 Před 10 měsíci

      I would wait for the 7840HS version. Cheaper than the Intel version with the same CPU Performance and much more iGPU Performance and a dedicated GPU... Thunderbolt support is the only reason why someone should buy a Intel version. For everyone else the 7840HS is the way to go.

    🚫 Buyer Beware! My Unbelievable Experience with Lenovo 🚫
    I can't even begin to express my disappointment and frustration with Lenovo and their customer service. Less than a year ago, I purchased a brand new Lenovo laptop for a significant amount, hoping for a reliable and high-quality device. Little did I know, this would mark the beginning of an absolute nightmare.
    Right from day one, the laptop had a seemingly small issue-it wouldn't go into sleep mode and would randomly come back to life whenever it pleased. At first, it seemed like a minor inconvenience, but it quickly turned into a catastrophic situation.
    On several occasions, I found my laptop inside my bag, overheating to extreme temperatures. The consequences were devastating-half of the system was physically damaged, causing a plethora of bizarre and inexplicable bugs that rendered the computer utterly useless.
    I reached out to Lenovo's customer service, hoping for a resolution. Technicians were sent to my home twice, and we spent countless hours on phone calls and emails, attempting remote fixes and even resorting to desperate measures. However, nothing worked, and Lenovo has refused to replace the faulty laptop, despite it being a product I paid over NIS 7,000 for!
    To my dismay, I recently discovered that I am not alone in this ordeal. Countless others have faced similar issues and have been treated with the same disregard by Lenovo. The stories I've heard from friends and the countless tales shared on the internet paint a clear picture of a company that fails to uphold its responsibility to its customers.
    Consider this a warning-I implore you not to make the same mistake I did by purchasing a Lenovo product. Find a company that stands behind their products and offers a genuine warranty. I, for one, have learned my lesson and will be seeking a new laptop from a more reputable brand.
    I refuse to remain silent about this unacceptable treatment. I will share my story far and wide, ensuring that others are aware of the disgraceful practices of Lenovo. Let's stand together and demand better from the companies we support!
