Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5i (14, Gen 8) review – its cooling and display are very good
Source: Laptop Media English
The Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5i (14″, Gen 8) is a nice offer in its class. It has an aluminum build and the device is suitable for almost everyone thanks to the stealthy look and clean design. The performance is good because of the potent cooling solutions with two fans and two heat pipes. Our device has the Core i5-13500H which can be a serious challenge for a lot of thin machines with its 16 threads, 18MB of cache, and a 45W TDP. Despite the laptop’s low weight and 15.99 mm profile, the CPU can sustain a 3.25 GHz P core clock and a 55W power limit under long processor loads which is a serious achievement. The optional 2.8K IPS display (LEN140WQ+ (LEN8AAA)) should be another key selling point. It has a 16:10 aspect ratio and a 120 Hz refresh rate. It boasts 100% sRGB and 85% DCP-P3 coverage.

Comment

Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.

In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.

In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.


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

AMD Radeon 780M: Integrated graphics card in the Ryzen 7040 mobile series APUs based on the RDNA3 architecture with 12 CUs (= 768 shaders) and a clock speed of up to 3 GHz.

With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 6GB Laptop GPU: Mid-range gaming laptop graphics card based on the Ampere GA107 chip. Offers 2560 shaders and is offered in different TGP (power consumption) variants from 35 to 80 Watt with different clock speeds and therefore performance. Refresh of the RTX 3050 with 6GB, higher shader count but a reduced memory bandwidth of 96Bit.

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


AMD Hawk Point (Zen 4/4c, Ryzen 8040):

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. The 8845HS features 8 cores (16 threads thanks to SMT support) running at up to 5.1 GHz; in addition to the full might of the Zen 4 architecture, the chip comes with the 2nd generation Ryzen AI technology that's set to make generative AI more ubiquitous than ever before. Last but not the least, the Radeon 780M serves as the integrated GPU.

Intel Raptor Lake-H:

i7-13700H: Alder Lake based mobile CPU with 6 performance cores and 8 efficient cores. The performance cores offer hyper threading, leading to 20 threads that can be processed. The CPU clocks with up to 5 GHz. Compared to the i9-13900HK no easy overclocking supported, but instead full vPro management feature-set.

i5-13500H: On Alder-Lake based mobile CPU with 4 performance cores and 8 efficient cores. The performance cores offer hyper threading, leading to 16 threads that can be processed. The CPU clocks up to 4.7 GHz and supports vPro.

AMD Phoenix (Zen 4, Ryzen 7040):

R7 7840HS: A powerful Phoenix family chip that saw the light of day in H1 2023. The processor features 8 cores (16 threads thanks to SMT support) running at 3.8 GHz. Not only does this APU has full might of the Zen 4 architecture at its disposal, it also comes with the new Ryzen AI technology that's set to make generative AI more ubiquitous than ever before. Last but not the least, the Radeon 780M serves as the integrated GPU.

14.00:

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact. 

In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers. 

16.00:

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.

94.05%: This rating is indeed excellent. There are not many models that are rated better. This can definitely be seen as a purchase recommendation.
