Good review. this is a nice laptop. I just saw it at Costco ideapad Pro 5i 16" Ultra 9, 32 GB LPDDR5X, 1TB SSD, AND OLED NVIDIA RTX 4050 6GB... I think I'm going to buy it...

Nice review. One question though: is that display glossy or matte? Really if it were matte I'd be a dealbreaker for me. The product page says "reflective" but every other review but yours seems to have a matte display. Since you're in Germany and I'm in Portugal, the model is probably the same. So, just to make sure, this display is glossy right?

Hi, thanks! Glad you found it helpful. Yes I can confirmed that unit in the video had glossy panel, but you need to go for and OLED in order to get glossy panel. IPS versions come with matte screen

Could you please comment on fan noise and battery life? Are the fans off when watching KZitem?
@Decoding_Labs
7 ай бұрын
Now, this is my favorite topic. On PCs, fans are very rarely off, but I must say that Meteor Lake is the first platform in years where I can confirm that the PC can stay very quiet for most tasks, and even while gaming or under heavy workloads. Based on my extensive testing, there's no more jet engine noise! As far as battery life is concerned, I wasn't permitted to conduct any extensive tests on it, since this Ideapad was an engineering sample. However, once I have access to a retail unit, I plan to thoroughly evaluate battery performance under various conditions and share the results with you. Stay tuned for a more detailed analysis in the future.

And how about PWM on this OLED panel? Especially on brightness below 50%, and more especially on 10% and 0% of brightness? Without information about PWM its maybe harmful on eyes, especially for kids and young people.

It really depends on what you are looking for, my friend. While MacBook may be more expensive, it can offer you a great experience with the benefits of an ARM-based chip and strong ecosystem integration. On the other hand, Ideapad offers the latest and greatest from the Windows world, with much-improved Meteor Lake CPU, OLED panel, and more ports.

Thank you for a great video! I don't want to sound like an a-hole but that mick is not supposed to be used so close to the source. You can get away with it if you put a highpass-filter on it(post processing). But for the best result, back ut up a bit and gain it up to compensate for the volume drop.

I am actually owning this device (the version with the i7 and rtx 3050). Its a good device but the biggest downsides are in my opinion the battery life and the soldered ram. I'm getting a battery life of around 2-6 hours depending on display brightness (my device has a 3k ips display). That's pretty less for a new laptop. However, its a powerful device though. It works well with windows and ubuntu.
