    32Gb not available with OLED screen

      Would you really want an OLED on a laptop though? Seems like a strange config to me

      • kanu666 on 07/11/2024 - 09:23

        I will not :) I actually ordered IPS version from the last deal
        Just posting for everyone else.

        OLED will look much better overall, however if battery life is the most imporant feature then and IPS screen is a better option as it uses less power.

        • On1 on 07/11/2024 - 17:47

          OLED has an issue with touch screen - screen door effect.

  • Sage222 on 07/11/2024 - 08:57

    damn.. nice bit of kit.

    Same 84Wh battery which combined with the LPE cores means better battery life for non-intensive usage

    Funny thing here, you would think the LPE core would mean that the E core is always on giving that low-load performance while the P core kicks in during intensive usage, in fact its the opposite, where the P core stays on at all times and the E core is the one thats on standby.

    Now, Jarrod never did a direct Core Ultra to Hawk Point (Rebranded Phoenix Point with NPU) comparison, but we know that the Strix Point have better battery life over Core Ultra, and since we know that Strix Point have higher power draw over Phoenix Point, add one and one together, yeah nah sorry not sorry Intel.

    Still makes this a good deal but assuming if both are the same form factor and everything, not much reason not to go AMD for your average folk, not like AMD don't have access to USB4 now which renders the whole Thunderbolt/connectivity argument out of the window.

      Jarrod can cover the power differences if he drops by this deal

      But this:

      …not like AMD don't have access to USB4 now which renders the whole Thunderbolt/connectivity argument out of the window.

      USB4 is not Thunderbolt 4

      they're not power efficiency cores like ARM big.little, they're space efficiency cores to fit more performance on-die.

      Even on desktop the p-cores have better individual perf/watt.

  • anglais on 07/11/2024 - 09:16

    Nice unit. Here I was on the cusp of trying macbook again.

  • RedHab on 07/11/2024 - 09:44

    Nice unit and very nice writeup, thanks OP.

  • nutbunny on 07/11/2024 - 10:02

    How does this compare to the Ryzen AI 9 https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/875361.
    Could someone give specific use cases?
    Looking to use with office suite, browsing, markups & some light CAD packages.

    • scud70 on 07/11/2024 - 10:37

      Both will do fine for that type of use case, the AI 9 has a better iGPU and slightly better efficiency but that's really dependent on how you use it, the price difference is quite significant so you are paying for the newer chip etc (the Lunar lake versions is even more expensive). I would do some research around the battery life of both… i tend to lean towards the AI 9 chips for all around stuff inc very light gaming on the go, Lunar lake for ultra efficiency and if you want to save decent amount of money the last gen AMD and Intel chips (which seem to be getting cleared out at the moment hence all the sales :) )

      • witheredcouch on 07/11/2024 - 14:41

        The Ideapad/Yoga 7's from my experience are also a little better constructed than the 5's, so that is worth keeping in mind too.

    • HPdeskjet on 07/11/2024 - 17:02

      258V is the one to get, way better efficiency than the AI 9 and the 125H in here, on par with the m3 macbook for battery at the moment.

      The yoga pro is also a lot better built than the idea pad line, actual metal instead of plasticky chassis.

    What's the real world battery life like using web/office applications?

    Would this be good as a school laptop or would a MacBook be a better choice?

    My old lenovo pad has some kind of hard coded. Protection where a factory reset doesn't even bypass requiring some old login details that I've lost. Turned me off the brand.

    Thumbnail is a bit misleading, I thought it was a 2-in-1

      I thought the same and wouldn't have realised it if not for your comment!

    • bcYield on 07/11/2024 - 21:25

      Would have placed an order straight if it were the 2-in-1. Been watching it for 2 weeks now. Hope CR can increase the cashback and no cap. Then it would hit my budget.

  • caffeine69 on 08/11/2024 - 00:07

    How's this? Education store, it's the IdeaPad SLim 5i - appears to be same processor and form factor but slightly cheaper

    Finally a decent screen

  • 0806449 on 08/11/2024 - 13:56

    Is the included 84Wh Bat covid free?
