who the fuck gaming on their laptop unplugged??? 😭😭

[@familhagaudir8561]

I unplug mine sometimes when I want the fan to STFU, since it's the only way I found to actually make it run on less power / heat and make the fan quiet. The "performance settings" don't seem to change anything. Performance unplugged are barely impacted but the fan either stops or barely turns. Not a "gaming laptop" though. Lenovo Ideapad with Ryzen 5 5625U and integrated graphics. It plays some games, up to Deep Rock Galactic. I hate noise. This laptop in the video is actually interesting since it runs so cool and quiet. But too expensive for me. I'll keep my potato laptop for now unless some very good opportunity comes by.

To be fair, with laptops like this, battery life is expected to be poor, even with ones with integrated graphics. People who buy gaming laptops usually plug it in most of the time to utilize the performance. The main feature of them is the simple portability of the system compared to that of a desktop. Fair point that battery life is abysmal, but the intended audience of them shouldn't care too much

For anyone who was thinking to buy but after this video is reluctant let me assist you all.. this is best laptop for gaming at this price point if your budget is higher then no question you can have whichever you want but for the price normally a gamer would not game unplugged and still it gives 3 hour battery life at 60 whr battery ...and similar graphics with intell 12450h also last the same on battery despite having igpu so chill and i have used this laptop the thermals are actually really good cpu usage never go above 60 percent and gpu temp always below 70 degrees so for long term its a good point to consider.

[@loukasbalomenos2600]

Absolutely agree with you. I have been using it for 3 weeks now and I am surpised with gaming performance but also on how quiet and smooth it is when on balanced mode. We should always compare apples to apples: this is a budget gaming laptop not a pro and in its price range there are barely one or two alternatives to compare with.

[@Aasshhiiqq]

Shall I go with this or i5 12th gen intel cpu 4060gpu ??

[@loukasbalomenos2600]

My personal experience with AMD is superb after roughly 2 months of intensive use. I think the entire point of the video is off. The only limitations I came across with this configuration (7435 and RTX 4060) are low lugg when in Ray tracing mode and mediocre speakers. Probably similar experience with i5 minus the bricked motherboard scare that is associated with loq machines and intel cpus. If battery life is that important you should compare the 2.5 hrs autonomy here with probably a maximum of 4 hrs with intel. It's up to someone's priorities with a bulky gaming laptop

True what Jarrod said. I just bought this laptop (infact I watched this video on it) and while the gaming performance is expected from 4060, the battery life is pretty bad. To workaround it, I always use battery saver mode when i'm using for office works which can last me for 4 - 6 hour and that is enough for me. I don't think there's any reason to ever play games without it plugged on a laptop IMO.

I was sniffing around Best Buy yesterday while out for groceries and stunbled upon an LOQ just clearance priced @ $316. I asked for one and was told they went on sale that morning and were sold out -so I asked about the display unit. He said same price for just laptop and power -OK, but after about an hour of reset, they rung it up $120! It’s the 7840HS with the GTX4050. Now I ordered another 8G 5600MT SODIMM and a fast NVME gen4 storage to fill the spare slots. I think the LOQ got dised by influences because it shipped without dual channel ram. I was looking for thin and light, but I already have an M1 MBA for that purpose. PRICE first!

[@anhiirr]

the only aspect with batterly life that comes to mind is being a student and wanting to limit your carry/weight/bag footprint TBH...and well most students that also want to game...are willing to make compromises......theyll consider bringing a type c charging brick...or a plug-able type c portable charger and sit near an outlet etc...if necessary and on a tight budget...theyll adapt/overcome XD....but TBH if you set the screen to 60hz/automatic when unplugged and lower brightness for some note/taking building a study guide off a lecture or etc...some 3d/modeling design or engineering majors....they can still get good use out of a laptop/battery with a mux and a brick to charge/sustain over a course of early college when theyre enduring many class/hours etc. OFC at home or etc at the apt/dorm etc they can have a dedicated desk/workstation to charge and external monitor etc to maximize their systems viability. PPL act like 10 years ago the majority of students didnt have to be plugged in using laptops etc frankly...and a system like this on a budget is no exception to the POTENTIAL value and viability to someone that wants a laptop that can also game to enjoy their free time on a tight/limiited budget Or have to settle for some kind of thin/n light ultrabook or a macbook + a console for gaming at home. TBH even gaming portables are pretty interesting since you can use an e-gpu enclosure for at home/monitor/tv needs...(opposed to an ipad+ keyboard from a cost/range standpoint)and still have a mini/portable pc for lighter workloads like jotting down notes or using some cloud/based suites etc for school+ its storage viability. Possibly a plug/in foldable keybaord just for those school/tasks then boom the "mandatory" station for larger workloads and gaming. I mean engineering and design majors do benefit from a beefier system no doubt...typically going to an apple M chip these days...but for ppl that want to game....the LOQ/nitro/victus still offer a good budget/value for those that TRULY need it. I mean if i lived in an urban area, took public transit was a working student...id have to lean more towards a thin n light that i would just charge my brick/during class and periodically type-c charge the laptop when travling in my bag or at work etc...just to maximize portability and everyday carry/footprint. But i would invest towards a lighter setup from a QOL standpoint...or go with a non gaming laptop out of budget/constraints and priority to weight/savings and battery life.

Worrying about battery life in a laptop that's supposed to be used for gaming and not really all that portable is kind of like worrying about your SUV being good enough for hardcore off-roading when you're literally never going to do any off-road because you live in a downtown area. Also, kind of annoying at this point to call anything above 500 USD "low tier". How long until you start refering to 2000 USD laptops as "budget"? That said, this one is a bit pricy for what it is. I love those thermals for sure. They got that right, and plenty of gaming laptops don't get anywhere near those metrics, even with lower specs.

[@TheAmanor123]

Wrong example. If you have a sports car, obviously it goes fast but you still expect it to run a certain distance before having to refill it... If every 20km it has to be refilled, its not a car really since the main use of the car is to travel long distances. The main purpose of a laptop is to be able to use it away from the wall. The longer the better

[@el10leo]

@@TheAmanor123 That's how you use your laptop. I use mine to go on vacation or to play at a LAN party, in that way I can deal with the bulk of it. Since it's a gaming-ish one, it's not really that portable and of course it's battery life is decent but nothing off the charts. I don't expect it to be because it's not what I expect from it. Your sports car comparison makes absolutely no sense by the way.

You don't buy gaming laptops for battery life. You buy them because they have kickass graphics cards! I just bought the Lenovo LOQ Ryzen 5 version of this laptop, and it is awesome! If you look at the internals, there was a lot of very cool engineering involved. The rear cooling exhaust is nice, because it doesn't burn my legs. You can switch between performance modes with one key press. In "quiet mode", it uses about 40 watts when not gaming, and 60-80 watts when gaming. Performance mode uses more power and the fans run louder. The Geekbench CPU scores for my Ryzen 5 are about the same as a Ryzen 7 with integrated graphics, and the GPU scores are four times as high. The color accuracy is also much better than on other laptop screens. I would definitely buy this laptop again, and I would also buy the Ryzen 7 that's in this video.

[@loukasbalomenos2600]

​​@@Raikou1914Καλησπέρα φίλε μου. Αγόρασα ακριβώς αυτό που παρουσιάζει ο Jarrod εδώ, δηλαδή amd 7435hs με κάρτα 4060. Εάν το θέλεις για gaming σκίζει, τρέχει τα πάντα ακόμα και σε ultra settings αλλά ξεχνάς το τροφοδοτικό στην πρίζα. Σε μπαταρία δεν βγάζει ούτε 30 λεπτά gaming. Για σερφαρισμα κλπ με το ζορι 3 ωρες. Ο λόγος είναι ότι ο amd που φοράει δεν έχει κάρτα γραφικών οπότε όλα περνάνε από την nvidia η οποια βεβαια ρουφαει ρευμα. Άλλο προβληματάκι είναι τα ηχεία. Θα αποδώσουν μόνο όταν έχεις ανοιχτή μια app που συνοδεύει το laptop αλλά και πάλι έχω ακούσει πολύ καλύτερα. Για τα λεφτά του είμαι super ικανοποιημένος γνωριζοντας όμως ότι ουσιαστικά ειναι deskrop replacement. Έχει βγάλει όντως και η asus ένα tuf με τα ίδια specs οπότε διαλέγεις αυτό που σου ταιριάζει αισθητικά. Πάντως για τα loq του 2024 ακούστηκαν πολλά για καμμενα motherboards (ειδικά όσα φοράνε intel) . Εάν θέλεις καλύτερη αυτονομία μπαταρίας και λίγο καλύτερα specs υπάρχει στη loq σειρά νέος επεξεργαστής amd 8 με integrated graphics , όπου να' ναι θα βγει και Ελλάδα. Εμένα με ένοιαζε μόνο το θέμα τιμής και από αυτήν την άποψη είναι super. Τώρα έπαιζα plague tale και πιάνει χαλαρά 110 fps με ultra graphics. Οθόνη OK όχι κατι τρομερό αλλά ούτε χάλια. Ελπίζω να βοήθησα!

At the time of this comment, among LOQ laptops, these AMD variants without iGPU might be the best option. The 7000 series variants with iGPU are all out of stock, the 8000 series variants are just too expensive, and the Intel variants have a high risk of motherboards dying (one guy on reddit had 5 mobo replacements).

If I want to look at the internet or watch The Boys, I'll do it either on my phone or the TV. And this LOQ 15 has one humongous advantage over other gaming laptops...its price! I paid £700 ($US 900) for mine which is already cheap. Had I waited another 4 weeks, I could have picked it up for £622 ($US 800).

[@loukasbalomenos2600]

Hi there. I owe this one too and I am surprised by its performance and value. I am also surprised by the torrent of negative feedback this machine attracts by "experts"! Anyway. Today I came across an offer in my local market with a victus model carrying 7840hs and rtx 4070 for the same money I paid for the loq. I was initially disappointed thinking I rushed into buying the loq but doing some research I found out that same games perform better in my (our) machine than in the victus with better specs. For example plaguentale requiem reaches 95 fps on youtube videos with the victus 4070 whereas i get 115fps easily, same settings. My idea? I would appreciate your opinion on this. Ty

That model isn't available in the UK but I found it in France for the eye watering price of €2,850 ($US 3,100)! Here you can get the Victus with a 4060 for £899 but that comes with a crappy i5-12500H & a 250 nit screen...and that's STILL £200 more than I paid for my LOQ. Under normal circumstances, I'd say if you can get a 4070 Victus for $US 900, then go for it but TBH, it sounds way too good to be true. The lower FPS says to me they mean the 4050 & the 4070 is a typo!

Because I'm using it for letters and work are for its entangled purpose, which was gaming. You can get better life out of the gaming laptop. You just have to be a bit more clever about it. You have to change the CPU settings to throttle it to like five percent when on battery and you have to do the same with your graphics card in the settings menus of the Nvidia app. It's not a gnarkey comment I was serious don't buy gaming laptops for works.

When I saw this online I thought the CPU name was a typo. I wouldn't necessarily avoid this for my use case as I mostly use gaming laptops as a desktop replacement that, if I really needed to, I can just disconnect and pack without the clunkiness of SFF + portable monitor that would sit even lower on the table. That said...how many people would actually get this knowingly? While a lot more people than you'd think need the battery more as a back up power (to save and shut down) or for short busts of working away from the wall, I imagine most people buying gaming laptops as desktop replacements that totally won't care about the battery life are way more likely to get a bigger laptop than a Loq not just for the screen but for the cooling and performance. If this was 2018 or so they'll just put this CPU in a bigger chassis and call it a day, but when you've got 16cores in a G17 or even more (albeit due to eCores) on a Scar18 or a Titan, couldn't they have just marketed this CPU to, say, MinisForum? I'd take this in a miniPC with a dGPU, or that mITX board with a laptop CPU that just needs a regular 120mm fan and the built-in cooler to stay cool (at the very least you wouldn't need to go digging online what top-down cooler fits on what motherboard depending on RAM - not like a desktop CPU in such an SFF build will sustain 5.0ghz+ all core anyway).

Whats your thought on lenovo loq ryzen 7 8845hs rtx 4060 ?

[@JarrodsTech]

Might as well save money on the 7840HS if it's available for less money, almost the same thing in terms of performance shown in this video with the Legions.

[@Snow_KN]

7-8845HS RTX4050 vs RYZEN 7-7435HS RTX4060 at almost the same price which one is better for gaming?

[@natsuyuki5744]

Same lol, i was confused But other suggest to take rtx 4060 instead

[@wozie-ps8fc]

Good day. I would like to inquire about the integrated graphics capabilities of the Lenovo LOQ 15AHP9 laptop equipped with the AMD Ryzen™ 7 8845HS Processor. Kindly provide me with the relevant specifications and confirm if the device indeed features integrated graphics. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

[@JarrodsTech]

It has integrated graphics, check the AMD product page if in doubt.

[@rithik8674]

Saying hs version doesn't have igpu, so the battery backup is bad?

[@dyyznutz]

will this laptop last just as long compared to something that does have integrated graphics? i don't mean battery life, just how long it can last for before something breaks when out of warranty

[@JarrodsTech]

I don't know if lack of iGPU would increase that, I guess depends if the Nvidia graphics are fine to work more than they would normally in most laptops - but given many people leave optimus off all the time anyway, I doubt it's an issue.

[@dyyznutz]

@@JarrodsTech thankyou!

I still have my Lenovo y580 from 2012-2013, the nvdiia gpu died back in 2018 but the laptop still works on the integrated gpu

I was gonna buy the Asus A15 with ryzen 5 7435HS and rtx 3050.should I buy the one with ryzen 5 7535HS. They’re about the same price.

[@JarrodsTech]

Hmm, the 7535HS has a higher number but it's actually a weaker performing part with 6 cores / 12 threads - BUT it has integrated graphics, so better battery life - depends which of those is your priority.

[@Jasper-yz7vy]

Will you review Ryzen AI 9 vs Intel Core Ultra?

[@JarrodsTech]

Maybe, depends what laptops we're able to get.

[@cookiewaa]

Nice video man. Please help. If it's a choice between this and the Asus TUF A16 with 7735HS and RX7700S, which is the better pick?

Watching after buying the laptop ;-;

[@yamchayaku]

anything is better than intel i9-14900HX. That cpu is unstable AF. I needed to disable my optimus to prevent my G16 Rog Strix from Blue screening all the time. I don't really care about battery life tbh. I don't ever game without plugging the laptop in and the Battery is only important to get the needed time to properly turn the laptop off if the power grid goes out.

[@SabinTV-NP]

Why would AMD even do this to a laptop? Damn this sucks! They should give us a 200 Wh battery to make up for the lack of integrated graphics.

[@Joker-no1fz]

its not legal on a plane so they wont.

[@JarrodsTech]

I guess because it's better than wasting the chips, might as well try use them for something. The only issue I have with it is unless you know what a 7435HS is, you'd probably just buy it without knowing the limit of no iGPU.

[@siyzerix]

AMD has been lying since the release of zen on laptops. And they do it because people buy these devices and continue to do so while defending AMD.

[@siyzerix]

@@JarrodsTech Wait, don't you also have a problem of AMD selling a 2 gen old chip under the ryzen 7000 naming? Thats a pretty big problem.

[@bioxbiox]

AMD has nothing to do with the laptop design and manufacturing. In this case, Lenovo ordered and assembled the parts.

[@syedrehanfida]

Is there any worry that the 4060's life could be lowered by being always in use?

[@averagehooman1832]

Lemme second this, i wanna know too

[@MrSensible2]

I bought my Lenovo Legion with its Nvidia 2060 GPU in September 2020. I only ever used it for gaming whilst it was plugged into a wall socket, so for 99% of the time, the iGPU was redundant & the dGPU did all the heavy lifting. Over the passing years, that laptop saw A LOT of use...and 4 years later, it's still working perfectly. All this talk about laptops lacking an iGPU failing prematurely is a load of old twaddle! However, whilst the Legion is as fast now as when I first bought it, it struggled to keep up with modern, AAA games, particularly The Last Of Us (brilliant game, buy it!). Which is why I recently bought myself a LOQ 15 with the 7435HS & the 4060...and honestly, for what I paid for it, it's brilliant!!

[@syedrehanfida]

jarrod the dead mobos are going cryze in intel versions. I bought mine in turkey and it is dead within 15 days

[@JarrodsTech]

Are they though? Like, are you just one out of 5-10 vocal people? How many are there? I'm sure from your perspective it seems bad, you have to deal with it, I just can't get an idea of how widespread it actually is myself and it's hard to get any useful info from Lenovo.

[@fberdf]

A thing to take notice, any laptop after 3 or 4 years will have its battery life very reduced...and only crazy people play games in laptops outside home(or the place you are staying) so its a no issue.

[@michaelwesten4624]

I thought this was a thing on intels new meme, where nothing you can do, just wait for the patch in august and hope your thing doesn't crash. either way, it doesn't affect me, my old busted laptop has one purpose and it's to feed my factorio addiction.

[@JarrodsTech]

Yeah I was wondering if it might get confused with that, I'll think about a new title and maybe add in the "7435HS" somewhere.

[@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep]

I wonder if that patch will go out for laptop cpu's since they said they aren't affected... at least that's kinda good news something is being done and addressed and may totally fix it instead of everything being up in the air with nothing said lol.

[@valkovtala1504]

​@@WaterspoutsOfTheDeeplaptops definitely are affected especially loqs with 13th and 14th gen hx processors. Check-out loq subreddit

Don't really know how to properly test it apart from mash the keyboard as much as I can at once 😅

[@rooki8321]

You can test if it register all the keys that you hold down, that should be enough imo You can google "keyboard ghosting test" and it will show some sites that can list how many keys can be register at once when you hold them down
