Verdict — Older Ryzen 7 Performs Like A Core i3
This laptop was designed for users who are satisfied with Core i3-level of performance. The Ryzen 7 5700U is severely underclocked on the VigoBook G7 and the sluggishness is a bit noticeable when opening common applications like browsers or Office. Other aspects like the webcam and speakers are of very poor quality even relative to other budget models like the HP Pavilion.
More positive aspects include the IPS display and port options considering the price. Build quality also appears decent, but we can't speak for its longevity at the time of writing. Other models in this price category like the HP 250 G9 may come with even less RAM and slower graphics performance in comparison to our Thinkeagle.

The Thinkeagle VigoBook G7 is budget multimedia laptop equipped with older AMD Zen 2 hardware to keep prices lower than most alternatives. Our unit comes with the Ryzen 7 5700U CPU, 1080p IPS display, 512 GB SSD, and 16 GB of RAM for approximately $500 USD.
Alternatives to the VigoBook G7 include other inexpensive models like the HP Pavilion series, Lenovo IdeaPad 1 or IdeaPad 3 series, or the Dell Inspiron series.
Specifications
Case
The chassis has a metal outer lid but with a plastic base which is a common approach for cheaper designs.
Connectivity
Port options are decent for a budget 15.6-inch form factor. Note that the system can be recharged via USB-C should you ever lose the barrel AC adapter that ships with the unit.

Maintenance
Sustainability
The manufacturer advertises no sustainability measures taken during manufacturing. The packaging is mostly paper and cardboard with plastic wrapping and foam protection.
Input Devices
Keyboard And Touchpad
The keyboard is one of the better aspects of the VigoBook G7. Travel is deep and we appreciate that the numpad and arrow keys are the same size as the main QWERTY keys unlike on most other laptops. Unfortunately, the Enter key is relatively soft and with unsatisfying feedback when pressed.
Display
Colors are <60% of the sRGB standard to be a low-end IPS panel fit for a budget laptop like the VigoBook G7. Color temperature is also too cool out of the box, but an end-user calibration with an X-Rite colorimeter is able to address this issue as shown by our CalMan results below.

In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 32 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (32.4 ms). |
Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
Screen flickering / PWM detected | 200 Hz Amplitude: 50 % | ≤ 99 % brightness setting | |
The display backlight flickers at 200 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 99 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 200 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8471 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. |

Stress Test
Average CPU clock rate and temperature would stabilize at just 1.4 GHz and 52 W, respectively, when running Prime95 stress which is much lower than expected from a Ryzen 7 5700U. Package power draw is also very low at just under 10 W even on Performance mode when the CPU is capable of 15 W and greater.
