Deal | Certified refurbished Lenovo Slim Pro 9i 16-incher with Intel i9-13905H, MiniLED touchscreen, 32 GB RAM and RTX 4050 now only $1,011

$1,011 for an RTX 4050 might not sound like an impressive deal, but the Lenovo Slim Pro 9i in question has quite a few other excellent features hard to find at this price point. Also, note that Ebay automatically applies an 8% discount in cart to bring the price down to $1,011, but that does not include the state tax.

Powered by the i9-13905H processor with 14 cores and 20 threads boosting to a maximum of 5.4 GHz, the 2023 Slim Pro 9i does not feature an NPU and a faster iGPU like the newer Meteor Lake Core Ultra laptops, but the CPU side is certainly faster. For AI workloads, users can rely on the RTX 4050 dGPU, which is also faster than any Meteor Lake NPU, plus it is clearly better than any current iGPU.

This variant also packs 32 GB of LPDDR5X-6400 RAM and a 1 TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. However, the best feature on this laptop is the 16-inch touchscreen that integrates a PureSight Pro MiniLED panel with 3200 x 2000 resolution, 1200 nit maximum brightness, 165 Hz refresh rate, and 100% DCI-P3 and ARGB color gamuts.

The port selection comes with a Thunderbolt 4 connector, as well as 2x USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, HDMI 2.0 video out, audio jack and a full-size SD card reader. Internet connectivity is available wirelessly via a Wi-Fi 6E + BT 5.1 card. Other specs worth mentioning are the 6-speaker sound system with Dolby Atmos support, the 5 MP webcam with IR Hybrid + ToF for face scanning and physical shutter switch, and the Storm Grey chassis that has a 0.71-inch (1.86 cm) profile with a total weight of 4.9 lbs (2.23 kg) including the rapid charging 75 Wh battery that could last up to 9 hours.
