The Lenovo IdeaPad 5 2-in-1 Gen 9 14" Is Impressive!

[@roeeheily9480]

Bought the 14 inch a month ago, unfourtently, The OLED version wasn't available on my country, so I bought the regular version, But, suprisingly for the price you pay, you get more value then expected! Even for low end gaming on modern titles like elden ring, sekiro shadows die twice, cod mw, fortnite, etc.. I managed to get a solid 60fps on all of them! So overall, even without OLED, This laptop worth every cent!

I love Lenovo! Ordered one of these 2 days ago for my daughter who starts secondary school in Sept. I'd surveyed the market and liked Lenovo's modular upgrade approach and, same a you, surprise how cheap they were! Thought i'd check for reviews before buying and saw this video... good job, I hadn't upgraded the screen! Added that, all-in came to £744 with a few discounts. Interestingly, my work has a discount code for Lenovo (Perks at Work) and while the starting price is a bit cheaper the upgrade prices are double(??) so worked out cheaper buying as a regular punter. Keen to know more about the cable replacement. I just bought an ANKER 45W to fast charge my S24 Ultra, would that work? Very well produced and informative video. Cheers

Nice review, just before seeing this my wife ordered almost exactly same for herself (with me assisting with upgrade suggestions)... and your review made her really happy with the choices we'd made! Made use of the Lenovo EOFY savings, so what would have been an AU$2000 laptop was now just under Au$1400. We didn't bother with 6E Wifi as no plans to upgrade from our current home setups. Thanks for the great video.

I'm very confused buy the 2 in 1 Lenovo range! There's also a Yoga 7 2 in 1 (14) with the same Ryzen 8840HS CPU, iGPU, RAM, SSD storage & 16:10 OLED display. The Yoga 7 2 in 1 has HDMI 2.1 and a larger battery. That's about the main differences I can see...? Presumably, this is a cheaper build with a plastic body? Are there any other differences I'm missing? Thank you for the review. It's been very informative! 👍

[@arthasfrost]

yoga 7 2 in 1 have slimmer body footprint, face login, Core Ultra 7 chipset, overall just feels more premium. That said if your budget allows, Yoga is a no-brainer

Yeah - it's got the usual slight over the top feel. But whilst under load you'll pick up fan noise and background noise without it

[@alfmeister13]

I buy tech for the long haul so I chose the IPS panel. OLED has a finite lifespan and any use takes away from this, so regardless of what you display - static or dynamic - eventually pixels that are more worn will become visible relative to their surroundings. I just bought one with the 16GB RAM/1TB options and other discounts which came to $$595 direct from Lenovo.

I don’t agree. The tech now used to manage OLED has come a long way. In addition in Lenovo Vantage you can select options to dim the task bar after a certain amount of time, as well as the whole screen if there has been no movement after a period of time. OLED has been in mobile phones now for years with no issues. I do agree that IPS is still a more durable screen, but if you intend to replace your laptop after 5 to 7 years, then an OLED screen is fine.
