BMAX X14 Pro laptop review: Attractive with AMD Ryzen 5 for under $500 USD

The 14-inch BMax X14 Pro subnotebook follows on the footsteps of the 11.6-inch MaxBook Y11 convertible that launched two years ago. Both are budget models in their respective categories designed to have more attractive aluminum profiles than competing models in the same price range.
Internally, the BMax X14 Pro utilizes the older but relatively uncommon AMD Zen+ Ryzen 5 3450U CPU which should be an upgrade from any Celeron or Atom solutions commonly found on competing sub $500 laptops. Other features include a 1080p IPS display, backlit keyboard, and a spacious 512 GB SSD that are more typical of pricier laptops.
Alternatives to the X14 Pro include other inexpensive 14-inch models like the Asus VivoBook series, Lenovo IdeaPad 3 series, Infinix INBook X2, Chuwi CoreBook X, or the Dell Inspiron 14 3000 series.

Case
The chassis looks excellent from a distance much like with many Chuwi laptops. However, its weaknesses become more apparent once held as the metal chassis flexes and creaks much more easily than the metal skeletons of a Dell XPS, HP Spectre, or Asus ZenBook. The corners of the base, keyboard center, outer lid, and hinges all exhibit moderate levels of twisting here. Thus, while the X14 Pro looks like a laptop that should retail for more than $500, it's also not any stronger or more rigid than other cheap models like the Asus VivoBook or Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14 that are predominately plastic.

Connectivity
Port options are reasonable for a 14-inch laptop albeit the positioning can be rather tight. Cables along the left edge, for example, can frequently tangle.
BMax doesn't advertise the HDMI port version, but we can confirm that it is an HDMI 2.0 port as it supports external monitors at 4K and 60 Hz.

Maintenance
Accessories and Warranty
There are no extras in the box beyond the AC adapter and paperwork. Claiming manufacturer warranty may be timely or costly due to overseas shipping.
Input Devices
Keyboard
Key feedback and travel are slightly deeper and firmer than the keys on a Lenovo IdeaPad laptop. However, key feedback uniformity is poor as certain keys are much spongier than others. The Space key in particular is significantly softer in feedback which ruins the typing experience on the BMax.
Touchpad
The Precision-enabled clickpad is reasonably large at 11.5 x 7.3 cm compared to 10.5 x 7 cm on the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro 14. Unlike the clickpads on some Chuwi laptops, the one on the BMax is reliable and without any cursor jumping issues. Its surface is smooth when gliding at medium or higher speeds while lower speeds tend to be stickier.
Display
The BMax uses the same BOE NV140FHM-N48 IPS panel as found on the Lenovo ThinkPad E14, ThinkPad L14 G2, or IdeaPad S540. This is a budget panel with limited color coverage, slow black-white and gray-gray response times, and limited contrast as shown by our X-Rite measurements below.
It's worth mentioning that the manufacturer is currently advertising a 14.1-inch screen size with full sRGB coverage. In reality, the X14 Pro has a 14.0-inch display with just 59 percent sRGB coverage. We don't recommend buying this BMax if full sRGB coverage is important for your workloads.

The display is decently calibrated out of the box despite the warm color temperature. Average DeltaE values would improve just marginally after calibrating with our X-Rite colorimeter due to the narrow color space of the panel mentioned above.

In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 91 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (22.3 ms). | ||

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 19046 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured. |
Outdoor visibility is relatively poor to average at best due to the <300 nit backlight. Be sure to disable AMD Vari-Bright under the Radeon Graphics menu or else the maximum brightness of the panel will be just 166 nits when running on battery power.
Performance
Testing Conditions
Our unit was set to Performance mode with the latest AMD drivers and Windows updates prior to running any benchmarks below for the highest possible scores.
Processor
Raw multi-thread performance is similar to the 11th gen Core i3-1115G4 while single-thread performance is slower and most similar to the 10th gen Core i5-1035G1. AMD's mobile Zen series didn't really take off in terms of performance until the Zen 2 generation and so the Zen+ Ryzen 5 3450U is only comparable to lower-end Intel Core CPUs.
