Awesome deal for a comprehensive creator laptop that can game and has a great screen.
You have to upgrade to core i9 and remove the 3 years onsite to get these specs for this price. I opted for the three years though and with a 24 au$ battery replacement given the problems I have been having with my Dell laptop.

Reviews suggest it has an amazing built quality, great keyboard and trackpad, amazing webcam and speakers, top notch performance, and some descent gaming capabilities.
The only so so thing about it is battery life, reviews with the mini-LED screen suggest around 5 hours of browsing time. So expect around 20% more battery life with this screen.

    Still waiting for mine to be shipped from the previous deal.

    • Yomamassugardaddy on 04/08/2023 - 18:24

      Shipping times and shopback are complicated with Lenovo.

  • BlinkyBill on 04/08/2023 - 18:12

    Worth $300 more for 4060 8GB?

    • Yomamassugardaddy on 04/08/2023 - 18:15

      I considered it, but probably not worth it.
      If you want a gaming laptop it's better to go for a Legion or a dell G series.

  • shabaka on 04/08/2023 - 18:15

    can game

    have 70w 4050, will travel

      I said can game, it's not a gaming machine in any way or form.

      • shabaka on 04/08/2023 - 18:59

        yep, and I didn't say it can't

        very limited gaming, however.

          Yours and my definition of "very limited" seem to be very different

          This thing is on par with a 110W 3060 which you see in every other gaming laptop deal here on OzBargain. 1080p max settings or 1440p high easy. But I don't hear people saying a 110W 3060 "can't game".

          It also comes with a 165Hz screen.

    7940HS would do so much better than an ‘i9’ especially in such a chassis.

    Don’t know if its AMD having production issues or Lenovo not willing to shift away from Intel on these high end rigs but damn a missed opportunity.

    Good price with that said. Do wish its a bit lighter though, 2.2 kg is gaming laptop territory already.

      AMD 100% dropped the ball, the sheer number of product lines which moved away from Ryzen this generation is very disappointing.

      I can only name like 3 laptops off the top of my head that use Phoenix Point, and they didn't become widely available until June, 6 months after being announced at CES.

      • Yomamassugardaddy on 04/08/2023 - 19:45

        Yup, no AMD version of this laptop.

        Unfortunately what you mentioned is not entirely correct.The margins are in server and embedded, and due to the modular nature of the Zen core the best binned chips are going to these markets, where Intel is not able to provide any viable competition. Look at all the embedded products out there that now have Phoenix Point CPU such as the ROG Ally.

        AMD, like Apple, has to rely on TSMC to manufacture their CPUs, and needs to prioritise where they can make the most return.

        Intel has lots of 12th/13th gen CPUs, because the consumer market is pretty flat globally and is practically giving them away to manufacturers such as Lenovo, with MDF kickbacks. Hence, they will be available in more laptops. However, due to the market being flat it doesn't mean anyone is really buying in significant volume. If you look up a report on Tom's hardware.

        "Intel has been forced to price aggressively in both PCs and the data center to staunch its share losses, which impacts profitability — as is painfully clear with the company's historically low margins over the last several quarters."

      I agree, it's a little heavy, but that build quality is way ahead of gaming laptops.
      For me this matters alot, as I actually use the shit out of my laptop, and I don't want to upgrade for at least 3-4 years.

      I had my current dell vostro 15 laptop since 2019. Trust me, build quality is a priority if you want to keep your machine for more than 2 years.

  • paulaus on 04/08/2023 - 19:37

    Doesn't the i9 have heating problems in thin laptops.

    • Yomamassugardaddy on 04/08/2023 - 19:46

      Reviews suggest otherwise for this laptop.
      Apparently it's a modified version specifically for this laptop.
      I got it because I do run simulations on the go, and I need raw power. And from my research, this CPU is a beast.

      • dogsryummy on 04/08/2023 - 20:02

        Nothing special about this i9 apart from having vPro which are features targeted towards businesses and enterprise

        Everything else is the same, the i9 is roughly 5% faster than the i7 (same number of cores, the i9 boosts 400 Mhz higher)

        • Yomamassugardaddy on 04/08/2023 - 20:25

          Thank you for clarifying the information!
          I would say it depends. It can be up to 10% in some cases (like my use case)
          but in general, for 80% opf things, the difference is unoticable between the i7 and i9 13K H series.
