    It's almost three years old now so I'd question the battery health given that the cells haven't been cycled. It should still be hours but not as good as new?

    • LurvinOZB on 06/01/2024 - 15:38

      Isn't the listing brand new?

      • Captainbirdseye on 06/01/2024 - 15:39

        The CPU is a couple of generations old and released in Q1 '21

        • LurvinOZB on 06/01/2024 - 15:44

          How does one (without buying and having the physical item) check when the laptop was manufactured?

          Am genuinely confused as I'm looking for BYOD for kid and if I'm reading your comment correctly; does it mean when the laptop is released, they only make a large batch and slowly sell them over the years?

            @LurvinOZB: I've taken an educated guess but to confirm you could contact the retailer. There will be a date on the Lenovo sticker on the box.

            Lenovo discontinue and sell out of old stock soon after a new generation of CPU is released. The retailer (and/or distributer) have probably held it for a while.

              @Captainbirdseye: I think the question on manufacturing date and if the new battery is degraded over time. I would say not much from a sealed battery.

              Lenovo also offers a battery replacement if it doesn't meet the minimum requirement?

            • LurvinOZB on 06/01/2024 - 21:17

              @Captainbirdseye: Awesome, thanks. Gonna keep looking for another reasonably priced byod then.

            • garage sale on 06/01/2024 - 21:51

              @Captainbirdseye: intel keeps on making the cpu for several years, and drop price of cpu , so manufacturers keep on making for a couple of years and sell cheaper and charge premium for latest cpus.

              you can check the intel web site for end of sale notice of cpus ….

                @garage sale: Lenovo don't even have laptops with 12th Gen for sale anymore, let alone 11th Gen. What would be your best guess as to the manufacture date of this laptop?
                If anyone buys one and it's not manufactured in '21 I'll eat my hat.

          • hippo2s on 06/01/2024 - 16:08
            +2

            @LurvinOZB: You can tell roughly by the generation of CPU, especially when Intel is doing yearly releases now. Ie. 11th gen, they have recently released 14th gen CPU so this being 11xxx = at least 2 years old (maybe 3).

            And yes. They pretty much always use the latest cup at factory, so they would not be making laptops with 11th gen when gen 12 is released and so on.

        • garage sale on 06/01/2024 - 18:01

          there is usally gap betweena cpu release and laptops hitting shelves, also one tooled up they keep making a model as when new cpu is released previous ones get cheaper.

          • hippo2s on 06/01/2024 - 23:20
            +1

            @garage sale: I respectfully disagree. This is the X series, they're pretty much always on the latest gen CPUs. Buying direct, they pretty much run out the old gen stock once the new gen becomes available. They don't keep making laptop using older CPU. It's pretty much impossible to buy directly from Lenovo n+2 gen stock. n+1 gen is frequently on discount. Well i guess unless they had a massive stockpile older gen CPU - but any half decent brand would be good at controlling their parts supply stock levels to avoid this - plus they make many many models they can just use the CPUs on. Again…this is X series, the flagship Lenovo range, they wouldn't keep making stock with old gen CPU.

            So when you find stock of laptop with CPU older than N+2 - it pretty much means a brand / distie / retailer bought it and had it on shelf all this time. As such the battery is going to be the age of when the laptop was released (- 1 year max).

            If you had the serial it is possible to find out using the Lenovo online support and see the as built date, parts etc.

      Battery tech has come a long way. Even if they have been sitting in a warehouse for a year or two, that should not have a significant impact on battery life. They know how to store them.

      It's about $100 less than other retailers. I wouldn't call it huge.

    • ozhunter68 on 06/01/2024 - 16:05

      If it was $900 or even $1000 two years ago not long after release, then it would have been a huge discount

      for new, and most likely also "too good to be true" lol.

  • ozhunter68 on 06/01/2024 - 16:04

    Anyone know how loud the fan would be running on medium power via battery with regular web brousing

    and/or YouTube playback use on a say 25-30 degree day ?

    • hippo2s on 06/01/2024 - 16:15

      Being X series it's a premium office workhorse, so I would imagine the noise is kept under control (quiet-ish) at normal load.

      • ozhunter68 on 06/01/2024 - 16:19

        Been using good quality Chromebooks without cooling fans, so any fan noise not good for me really if I hear it.

          it doesn’t have a separate gpu chip which usually generate a lot of heat, just the onboard iris graphics. my laptop the fan doesn’t turn on and it runs all day when in working.

          +1

          my experience with X270, X280 (the predecessors, non-yoga) - were that at normal load the fan is audible if you are using the onboard keyboard as you are close to it, however it is low speed so if you have it closed up, in a dock, under the table etc then it's not noticeable.

    • Captainbirdseye on 06/01/2024 - 16:20
      +3

      The subjective loudness would vary depending on the distance the measurement is taken at, your environment, the quality of the cat videos you're watching, and whether or not you're wearing underpants.

      • ozhunter68 on 06/01/2024 - 16:26

        Haha, yeah, I just don't like audible (for me anyway) laptop fan noise I guess, hence I go for "Radiant Cooling Chromebooks/laptops" without fans, but love the features of higher end i5 windows laptops with thunderbolt ports.

    • ChairmanMeow on 06/01/2024 - 22:51

      I'm still using my ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 3 from 2015. If you're just doing simple web browsing or playing YT videos, it's silent. If you're running some heavier things, you can hear the fan, but very subtle. It did get a bit noisy overtime, but once I've opened it up and applied some new thermal paste and cleaned out the fan, it's silent again.

      ThinkPad X series is really good at that.

  • Bunnyburger on 06/01/2024 - 16:20

    11th Generation CPU and older system board and other parts as mentioned above.
    Most laptops currently sold are 13th Generation and 14th Gen should be available in a couple of months.
    If it was 12th Gen it would have been alright given the high specs but 11th is too old to buy in 2024

    • Rimas on 06/01/2024 - 18:32

      Yeah, like Intel is taking massive leaps in performance with every generation.

      • utsc on 06/01/2024 - 19:21

        If the generation does not matter, then the off lease enterprise grade 8th generation laptops for $300 might be of better value for money

        • Rimas on 06/01/2024 - 22:13
          +1

          It does matter between gen 8 to 14. Not o much from 11 to 14

          • utsc on 07/01/2024 - 00:12

            @Rimas: The main problem here is that this laptop does not have 14 but 11 so let me use the same logic:

            If the statement "Not much from 11 to 14" is True,
            then by deductive reasoning
            "Not much from 8 to 11 to is also True by !

            • Rimas on 07/01/2024 - 07:36
              +1

              @utsc: I never said there's absolutely zero improvements in each generation. There are tiny improvements in each gen over the last one. Gen 11 is slightly better than gen 8 but it's not so much to pay to upgrade. Gen 14 is slightly better than 11 but not so much to pay hard earned money to upgrade. Gen 14 is much better than gen 8 that's perhaps worthwhile to upgrade. Those tiny steps build up over 6 gens to make them considerable.

              • utsc on 07/01/2024 - 19:28

                @Rimas: But the laptop in this post is 11th Gen and NOT a 14th Gen.

                I am comparing the 8th Gen laptop to this 11th Gen laptop in this post using a borrowed logic that the jump from 8 to 11 is not significant.

                I see your argument that two jumps from (8 to 11) and (11 to 14) are significant but one jump from (11 to 14) is NOT significant.

                The point here is if anyone is going to shell out closer to $1K it better be a much newer processor; however,
                if anyone needs a low cost laptop then get a refurbished enterprise grade 8th Gen laptop for 1/3 of the cost

  • dfg555 on 06/01/2024 - 18:05

    thunderbolt is a win, can use eGPU to get more life out of it but it is only a 4 core chip. will bottleneck majority of modern mid/high-end cards

    • bobokingdom on 06/01/2024 - 20:24

      Screen is not crap, it is IPS 100% sRGB. CPU is 11th gen i5, much better than 8th Gen i5. (exactly 3 generations newer)

    for someone who is concerned about the battery life, 11th gen is actually more power efficient than 12th,13th gen Intel CPUs.
    For the battery, as long as the retailer registers your warranty correctly (from the date you purchased), you will have an one-year battery coverage, so shouldn't be an issue.

    • bobokingdom on 06/01/2024 - 21:57

      If Mobileciti is an authorized dealer, then you can get the FULL warranty. For example, I bought a Lenovo L13 Yoga earlier this year from Compnow, even the warranty is nearly expired (based on manufacturing date), I sent an email to Lenovo and they updated the warranty for the FULL 3 years on-site warranty plus 1 free battery replacement add-on (when the battery capacity is less than 80%).

      Downgrade

      i5-1235U is a "10 core" CPU with 2 Performance + 8 Efficient cores drawing 15 to 55W

      i5-1145G7 is a standard quad core CPU with 4 Performance cores drawing 12 to 28W

      All the noobs saying 11th Gen is too old are smoking the good stuff

      It is still an excellent choice for non-gaming laptops and will easily last till 15th Gen when Intel finally release the AMD rivalling Arrow Lake

        Why is it a downgrade? At a glance it looks like the newer generation has a 20% performance increase?

        • Rimas on 07/01/2024 - 10:06

          They do but at a significantly higher TDP. Fine for desktops and power companies, not so much for a mobile device lake a laptop
