Schenker XMG Neo 15 laptop in review: Comet Lake upgrade

The Schenker XMG Neo 15 recently presented itself in our test with an Intel Core i7-9750H. Since then, not only has the hardware developed further, but also small visual changes have crept in. In addition to these and other points, in the following review we will also look at the performance in comparison with the competing devices listed below. Under each section, you can add other notebooks from our database to the competing devices we have chosen.

Case - Discreet changes
The case of the XMG Neo 15 receives a discreet upgrade. In addition to the even slimmer-looking frame around the screen, the light bar on the front now sets stronger accents with a dotted pattern. In addition, the webcam moves under the screen, which results in a somewhat unfavorable viewing angle. Also, the controls for switching on and off and the performance button are now square and separate. However, the changes in weight and dimensions are marginal.
Since the basically good impression of the case is preserved, we refer to the test report of an earlier version of the Schenker XMG Neo 15 for a detailed description.

Features - Thunderbolt with DisplayPort
In the current version, the GigabitLAN port of the Schenker XMG Neo 15 is no longer located on the side but is now on the back. The same applies to the Thunderbolt 3 port, which supports DisplayPort with up to two screens via daisy chain but does not offer PowerDelivery. The two single MiniDisplay ports of the previous model have been removed.
SD card reader
With our reference memory card Toshiba Exceria Pro SDXC 64 GB UHS-II, the SD card reader of the Neo 15 achieves slightly better values than the previous model. In comparison with the listed competition, however, the result is only sufficient for one of the lower places in our test field.

Communication
Instead of Wi-Fi 5, users now have Wi-Fi 6 available in the Schenker XMG Neo 15. With our reference router Netgear Nighthawk AX12, the transmission speeds have increased and, at 1,650 Mb/s for data reception, are sufficient for first place in our test field. In contrast, the Neo 15 is only in the middle of the field when it comes to data transmission, as we measured 1,230 Mb/s.

Webcam
The webcam of the Neo 15 offers the widely used low 0.9 MP and therefore delivers a correspondingly low quality. Even under good lighting conditions, subjects in the picture are not sharp and colors are displayed with very low contrast.

Maintenance
The XMG Neo 15 offers very good maintenance possibilities. After all the screws on the underside have been loosened, the base plate can be removed very easily, without having to worry about any hooks or anchors. Inside, there is free access to two SSD slots, two RAM banks and the WLAN module.
Warranty
Schenker grants buyers of the XMG Neo 15 a warranty period of 24 months. For a surcharge of around 100 Euros (~$120), this period can be extended to 36 months.
Input devices - Mechanical keyboard convinces
For a description of the input devices we refer here to an earlier version of the Schenker XMG Neo 15.
Display - Gaming notebook with 240 Hz panel
The 15.6-inch screen of the Neo 15 offers a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels and a refresh rate of 240 Hz. With an average brightness of 284 cd/m², it is in the middle of our test field. The same applies to the illumination of 89%. Our measurements also show that the screen, however, flickers at a frequency of 23,580 Hz at a brightness value of less than 25%. Since this value is very high, even users with sensitive eyes should be able to use the Neo 15 without any problems.

* ... smaller is better
The IPS panel of the Schenker Neo 15 offers a medium contrast ratio of 963:1 and a slightly increased black level of 0.32 cd/m². In combination with the color-space coverage of 91% (sRGB) it reaches the level of our test field, which is led by the Asus ROG Zephyrus S15.
The CalMAN analysis also shows that colors are displayed with a slightly increased blue content ex works. However, this situation can be completely compensated for by calibration. The corresponding ICC file can be downloaded in the top right window next to the graphic for screen illumination.

The display backlight flickers at 23580 Hz (Likely utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 25 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 23580 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18889 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured. |

Performance - Comet-Lake upgrade is worth it
With the XMG Neo 15, Schenker is targeting gamers who are looking for a compact notebook with plenty of power. The available hardware, which has been refreshed with our current test model, is also oriented towards this.
Processor
The Schenker XMG Neo 15 is now also available with an Intel Core i7-10875H. This processor belongs to Intel's Comet Lake generation and offers eight cores that can process up to 16 threads at clock rates between 2.3 and 5 GHz. How long the maximum performance can be maintained is significantly influenced by the cooling system.
Our continuous load test shows that the performance drops relatively quickly by about 4%. However, the Neo 15 is on par with the competition we chose, which also works with a Core i7-10875H. Compared to the XMG Neo 15 with Intel Core i7-9750H, a particularly strong increase in CPU performance is noticeable.

Mass Storage
Schenker has installed a 1 TB Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus in our test model of the XMG Neo 15. This delivers very good read and write rates and can therefore leave the assembled competition behind. However, when configuring their laptop, users have the choice between other models and manufacturers, which ultimately also affects the purchase price.
How other mass storage devices compare to the Samsung 970 EVO Plus is shown in our HDD/SSD benchmark list.

Graphics card
In our test configuration, Schenker uses an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Super, whose performance in the 3DMark benchmarks is on par with other notebooks with this graphics card. However, buyers can also opt for an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Refresh, which lowers the purchase price of the laptop by about 200 Euros (~$239).
How other graphics cards performed in our test can be seen in our GPU benchmark list.

Temperature
During our test, the surfaces of the XMG Neo 15 heat up to 65 °C. The warmest point here is at the bottom right corner, which means that the Schenker notebook can no longer be placed easily on the thighs under load. However, the temperatures of the wrist-rests remain moderate at all times.
During our endurance stress test, the temperatures inside rose up to 86 °C, while CPU clock rates were kept constant at a level of 2.6 GHz. Thus, the basic clock rate of 2.3 GHz is not undercut and users do not have to expect restrictions due to too high temperatures.
(-) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 46 °C / 115 F, compared to the average of 40.4 °C / 105 F, ranging from 21.2 to 68.8 °C for the class Gaming.
(-) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 65 °C / 149 F, compared to the average of 43.2 °C / 110 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 30.6 °C / 87 F, compared to the device average of 33.8 °C / 93 F.
(-) Playing The Witcher 3, the average temperature for the upper side is 40.8 °C / 105 F, compared to the device average of 33.8 °C / 93 F.
(±) The palmrests and touchpad can get very hot to the touch with a maximum of 39 °C / 102.2 F.
(-) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 29 °C / 84.2 F (-10 °C / -18 F).
