Reviews for the Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5 16AHP9
Source: Laptop Media
Although they look and feel almost identical, the Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5 is much more work-oriented than its Slim 5 counterpart. It’s not just the Pro moniker; this device is truly geared for professional tasks with all necessary ports and a military-certified chassis. The Pro 5’s AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS CPU is quite powerful, trailing just 7% behind the new AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. While the latter boasts a 50 TOPS NPU (currently underutilized), you can equip the IdeaPad Pro 5 with a GeForce RTX 4050, doubling HX 370’s INT8 peak AI performance. Surprisingly, this RTX 4050 variant operates at 100W TGP, despite official specs listing it at 80W. The OLED display is another highlight, offering a 120 Hz refresh rate for smoother motion, high brightness, and accurate colors with our Design and Gaming profile.

R7 8845HS: A powerful Hawk Point family chip that saw the light of day in H2 2023. We believe the 8845HS to be an R7 7840HS in disguise but with higher clock speeds on the Ryzen AI NPU. The 8845HS features 8 cores (16 threads thanks to SMT support) running at up to 5.1 GHz. Last but not the least, the Radeon 780M serves as the integrated GPU.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

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.
