Reviews for the LG UltraPC 16UD70R

59% LG UltraPC Review: Good Laptop But Gets The Basics Wrong
Source: Think Digit English
This LG UltraPC Review reveals that the LG laptop is a blend of commendable strengths interspersed with perplexing oversights. It shines with its sturdy build quality, luxurious design, and impressive keyboard-touchpad duo, making it a standout in the design and build quality. Its 512GB SSD and the 16GB LPDDR4X RAM certainly pack a punch, delivering fast and reliable performance for most tasks. The battery life is another feather in its cap, thanks to the efficient AMD Ryzen 5 chip and a sizable battery. However, it’s impossible to overlook the puzzling choices LG made. The trackpad’s uneven finish, the absence of a keyboard backlight in an age where it’s considered standard, and a screen that misses the mark in color accuracy are all blemishes on an otherwise solid machine. Additionally, its choice of processor and memory technology feels dated.

Comment

AMD Vega 7: Integrated graphics adapter of the Ryzen APUs based on the Vega architecture with 7 CUs (= 448 shaders) and a clock speed of up to 1,600 MHz.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


R5 7530U: Mobile six core APU with Zen 3 cores clocked at 2 to 4.5 GHz and a Vega graphics adapter with 7 CUs clocked at up to 2 GHz.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


16.00":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
