2024 Lenovo Xiaoxin Pro 16 laptop launches with Intel Core Ultra 9

Lenovo recently introduced the Core Ultra 9 variant of the Xiaoxin Pro 14. Now, the company has launched the Xiaoxin Pro 16 for those who could use a little more screen space. But unlike its smaller sibling, the new laptop is currently available only in one configuration.

The 2024 Xiaoxin Pro 16 packs the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 185H. This Meteor Lake processor comes with 16 cores and 22 threads. Lenovo says that the CPU can offer up to 80W of performance, which hints that the laptop can handle heavy workloads with ease.

On that note, the same CPU on the Xiaoxin Pro 14 can deliver 70W of performance. Lenovo could offer the processor a boost by integrating a much more robust cooling setup in the Pro 16.

Besides, the screen of the laptop sees an upgrade in size from the Pro 14. The 2024 Lenovo Xiaoxin Pro 16 features a 16-inch display with a 16:10 “golden ratio,”  350 nits of rated brightness, 2.5K resolution, and a 120 Hz refresh rate. It promises accurate color production with 100% sRGB coverage and “hardware level” tuning.

There’s a generous number of I/O ports too. The laptop sports one 20 Gbps USB-C, Thunderbolt 4 with 100W PD fast charging, USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, HDMI 2.0, 3.5 mm headphone port and SDXC slot. For wireless connectivity, it has WiFi 6E and Bluetooth.

Other highlights include a Dolby Atmos-supported speaker setup, an 84 Wh battery that promises 23.2 hours of video playback, and a slim and light build. As for the pricing, the 2024 Lenovo Xiaoxin Pro with Core Ultra 9, 32 GB of RAM, and 1 TB storage launched at CNY 7,699 (around $1,066). However, it’s currently enjoying a pre-sale discount and is now available at CNY 6,799 (around $941.96). The company hasn’t said anything about the global launch yet, but Xiaoxin laptops do get rebranded under the IdeaPad line (2023 Ideapad 1 curr. $429.99 on Best Buy) in the international markets.
