Medion Erazer Defender P40 review: The affordable QHD gaming laptop with an RTX 4060

Consistent. Medion's QHD gaming laptop offers respectable performance (Core i7-13700HX, GeForce RTX 4060), good features (16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, 240-Hz panel, Thunderbolt 4) and decent runtimes. A "silent mode" makes quiet gaming possible.

Medion have introduced the Erazer Defender P40, a mid-range QHD gaming laptop powered by a Core-i7-13700HX processor and a GeForce-RTX-4060 Laptop GPU. It is based on a barebone (NP70SND) made by the company Clevo and is available for around $1,900. Competitors include devices such as the MSI Katana 17Acer Predator Helios 300, Lenovo Legion Pro 5 16IRX8, Asus TUF Gaming A16 FA617 and the Gigabyte G7 KE.

Case - The P40 has a plastic case

Medion have chosen a black case for the P40 with smooth, matte-reflecting surfaces. The sleek-looking laptop has no extravagant design features. Apart from its illuminated keyboard, the laptop features no LED elements. The battery (screwed in, not glued on) as well as the rest of the laptop's innards can be easily accessed after the bottom of the case is removed.

There are no build issues - all the gaps match up and there are no sharp edges. The base unit and lid can be twisted ever so slightly, but this is nothing out of the ordinary. Hinges hold the laptop's lid firmly in place and its maximum opening angle is around 135 degrees. The laptop can be opened using one hand. 

The P40 is a little more compact than the Katana 17, but it weighs around 100 grams more. Both devices are beaten by the Gigabyte G7 KE in these categories.

Connectivity - The Medion Defender has Thunderbolt but no Power Delivery

Despite its 17.3-inch size, the laptop only has two USB-A connections (1x USB 3.2 Gen 1, 1x USB 2.0) - a third port on the right side of the laptop would be really handy. Neither USB-C port (1x Thunderbolt 4, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 2) supports Power Delivery, but the TB4 port can output a DisplayPort signal. In total, the device has three video outputs (2x DP, 1x HDMI), two audio ports and a Gigabit Ethernet port.

Two video outputs and the power connection are on the back of the laptop. The corresponding cables will run away from the back of the device - meaning they won't get in your way. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for an Ethernet cable, if this is in use.

SD card reader

The SD card reader (reference card: AV PRO microSD 128 GB V60) has maximum transfer rates of 86 MB/s (transferring 250 jpg images - around 5 MB each) and 91 MB/s (copying large blocks of data) - making this a model with average speeds.

Communication

Under optimal conditions (no WLAN devices in close vicinity, short distance between laptop and server PC), the laptop was able to achieve impressive WiFi data rates. The Medion laptop uses a WiFi 6E chip (Intel AX211). Wired connections are also taken care of by an Intel chip (I219-V; 1 GBit/s).

Webcam

The webcam (0.9 MP, max. 1,280 x 720 pixels) doesn't have a mechanical cover. Its quality, unfortunately, isn't the best - however, in comparison, its color deviation is actually minimal.

Accessories

Aside from the usual documents (quick start guide and warranty information), the laptop doesn't come with any additional accessories. 

Maintenance

After removing all the screws on the bottom of the device, the bottom plate can be removed using a flat spatula or a plectrum. You can then access both memory banks (in use), the second SSD slot (PCIe 4, M.2-2280), the WLAN module, the BIOS battery, the fans and the battery.

Warranty

Medion's Erazer comes with a two-year warranty. Warranty extensions are available, however, these must be purchased alongside the laptop from Medion's online shop - you aren't available to purchase an extension retroactively.

Input devices - The P40's keyboard is RGB-backlit

Keyboard

The laptop's illuminated (4 levels) chiclet keyboard (including a numeric keypad) consists of smooth and even keys. These have a short lift, a clear pressure point and a nice level of resistance. When you type, the keys have a slight give - this shouldn't be too bothersome, though. All-in-all, Medion have delivered a keyboard fit for everyday use. 

Touchpad

A click pad (around 15.1 x 9.2 cm) replaces the need for a mouse - it has a smooth surface which your fingers can glide over easily. It has a short lift and a clear pressure point.

* ... smaller is better

Ex works, the screen already has great color depiction: A deviation of about 1.7 is acceptable (DeltaE < 3). Calibration leads to a smaller deviation of 1.13 and more balanced gray tones.

The panel covers the entire sRGB color space - but not AdobeRGB or DCI P3. This isn't all too different from the device's competitors. Only the Acer Predator's screen can depict the P3 space.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
8.7 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 3.6 ms rise
↘ 5.1 ms fall
The screen shows fast response rates in our tests and should be suited for gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 17 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.9 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
14.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 7.1 ms rise
↘ 7.5 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.25 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 21 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (34.6 ms).

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 54 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 19003 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

The viewing angle stable IBS panel remains legible from any position. Outdoors, the screen remains legible as long as the sun isn't shining too brightly.

Testing conditions

The P40 has four manufacturer-specific performance modes (see table) which can be switched between via the laptop's control centre software. We used "entertainment mode" (benchmarks) and "power saving mode" (battery tests; deactivates the RTX 4060). Optimus was activated. We also tested both of the other modes: "Gaming mode" leads to improvements in CPU performance and "silent mode" allows for gaming with lower noise emissions.

According to HWInfo, the "power saving mode" sets the CPU's PL 1 (45 watts) to a higher level than PL 2 (30 watts). This is most likely a bug. During the execution of the CB15 loop, the CPU's power consumption is 15 watts.

Gaming mode Entertainment mode Power saving mode Silent mode
CPU PL1 (HWInfo) 135 watts 65 watts 45 watts 15 watts
CPU PL2 (HWInfo) 162 watts 130 watts 30 watts 30 watts

Processor

The Core-i7-13700HX processor (Raptor Lake) consists of eight efficiency cores (no hyperthreading, 1.5 - 3.7 GHz) and eight performance cores (hyperthreading, 2.1 - 5 GHz). This adds up to 24 logical CPU cores in total.

The benchmarks delivered results just below the previous CPU average ("entertainment mode"). "Gaming mode" usually only led to minimal performance increase - with the exception of the AIDA64 benchmarks. It could only show its improved qualities at continuous load. The laptop's more relevant single-thread performance (205 points) was reduced less in battery mode than its multi-core performance (1,619 points).

The CB15 loop test showed: Permanent multi-thread load led the turbo clock rate to drop from the first to the fourth run. Subsequently, it held consistent rates. "Gaming mode" led to continuously higher clock rates.
