IdeaPad 5 Pro 16" 2022 Review: The Ultimate Performance!

[@nelli452]

What's the release date for this model (Canada & USA)?

[@aaakmm1785]

I have Ideapad 5 Pro 16 with 5600H, no dGPU. I have 2 problems with this laptop. Fans are annoying, even in idle the pulse every 2 minutes even on the lowest power profile in Lenovo Vantage. My CPU seems to constantly run clocks above 2500-3000 Mhz. In many reviews it is shown that during idle and light tasks clocks go below 1500. I don’t know what causes this. Also touchpad is borderline unusable. Very often it does not detect single finger taps, sometimes single finger tap is detected as two finger tap causing menus to open, two finger scroll sometimes is not detected, sometimes single finger cursor move is not detected. Touchpad is not reliable. Also the touchpad surface is less easy to glide than the aluminum chassis itself, which is ridiculous.

easy just buy a fcking mouse you genius

[@massiah1298]

In India it comes with 4 gb rtx 1650.. 2.2 k display

There has been a change on the latest IdeaPad 5 Pro 16 that might be good but no one at Lenovo seems to know. Unlike Dell and others who have gone to standard DDR5, Lenovo have switched the memory to LPDDR5 for this generation. On the face of it, lower power and 6400Mhz seem great compared to DDR5 4800 or 5200 BUT the LPDDR5 bus is only 32 bit. LPDDR5 is usually found in mobile phones and its use in laptops appears to be new. Is it cost cutting that ruins performance or is it a good thing? Any thoughts...

[@rajakhan12346]

Have you noticed any major changes ???

[@nevergoingtoupload]

@@rajakhan12346 No idea because I purchased the Dell instead. Lenovo said they didn't know about the memory and I could take it or leave it, so I left it. The Dell 7620 is a really great machine and I love it. 😁

Not seeing 120hz refresh rate on my 16ARH7. only seeing 60hz option. Please help.

it would be nicer if it has comfort edges like the latest yoga series

[@JohnDoe-wd4fr]

i actually disslike the new yoga edges. what would be nice, is some upgradable ram or at least a 32 gb option

Hi Lenovo, Having followed your video and finally have one 16 ARH7. May I ask when will the USB4 update delivery

[@kopilkaiser8991]

Well done on the review. Nice editing, enough information provided and I really was able to takeaway the valuable information I was looking for. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

[@kaarthikarun9199]

Hey when will you release in india, eagerly waiting. And i hope it would be around the same cost of its predecessor.

[@kindnessasgreatasthesea1158]

Hello! Could you please tell me how the laptop holds up? 1) Do you have the AMD ryzen 5 or 7? 2) Does it run cool after daily heavy use? 3) Is the cooling system quiet? 4) Any issues with the screen hinge? 5) Any light bleeding from the screen?

[@micro7567]

@@kindnessasgreatasthesea1158 1 Ryzen 7 2, 3 I set the laptop to intelligent cooling In general tasks it runs very quite, in gaming you will hear the fans loud 4 no problem with the hinge 5 no problem for general productivity tasks it's very good, the screen resolution and quality is very good, the wight is great for portability (1.9 Kilograms) and battery life is reliable though I would not recommend this laptop if you need series gaming or video editing also keep in mind this laptop doesn't have upgradable RAM

[@yoantonkov7722]

Good review. Goofy, but informative! Really appreciate reviewing the 6800HS model. All other reviews on KZbin or anywhere seem to be reviewing the 5th gen CPU or intel models. Everything sounds great on paper. It has everything I've been looking for in a laptop, so I bought it and I am really excited about it! I know that AMD 7000 series just got released, but it's a huge mess across all cpu models, seems like they are also reusing previous gen stuff and also things are not looking hopeful for laptop model 7th gen cpus. Plus don't get me started on availability...We are barely getting 6th gen cpu laptops just now... 1 year later, so expect the same with 7th gen. AMD 6th gen would probably remain a sweetspot - pricewise/efficiency/performance - still getting ddr5 memory, USB 4 support, the amazing 680M graphics which crushes intel onboard and M1.

[@Bjowolf2]

Why on earth do you keep on having the two speakers facing downwards? At least they should be facing sideways as on most tablets.

[@scofind1139]

is there a 14 inch version with the same specs? of course with RTX not MX why not just usb C power port like ideapad slim 5 pro?

Owner of 2021 model here. Screen is mediocre in terms of color accuracy. At native 2K resolution everything looks tiny and with OS scaling everything looks blurry on that screen. IMHO 2K and 120 Hz is just marketing. Touchpad is piece of crap. IR camera's light constantly flashes like stroboscope (can be detected via phone's camera). My advice avoid buying this model.
