CES blesses us with a month's worth of supply of Dave2D videos

[alter-ego-]

Thanks to CES, we can watch 3 Dave videos within 24 hours

You might have tunnel vision around sound, but I do think it's a really important factor. I've got some jet engines running in some laptops and, if I had known I was going to push them that hard, I might have found something quieter.

Best 17 hours of my life. Back to back videos by Dave, what else do you need.

[YouLose]

I'm so glad he covered the Yoga series laptops. I'm eating good with these Dave videos coming out daily.

[hollis]

It's amazing how far the yoga laptops have come. My first laptop Dave did a video on, which was also my first Dave2d video, was the yoga 920, where he peeled a carrot on its sharp edge 🥕

Great to know someone else loves quiet devices as much as I do!

I'm close to tears! I've been looking soooo long for a powerful but silent windows laptop! Then I was about to give up and was at the blink of the edge to buy a MacBook last week! So thankful for this video, now I'll only have to wait a little bit more :)

Man, I would be super interested in a comparison between the 14 inch 7i with the Core Ultra 7 vs the same chassis with the Ryzen 7840H. Especially when looking at noise levels and efficiency.

[Ecipse..]

I have a 14.5" yoga pro 9i (4060, 13905H, 32gb RAM) and they are actually slept on. The cooling is superb (no throttling), screen is great and battery life is to be expected. The build quality is also the best I have seen in any windows laptops.

Thanks! a request to keep all videos in this form factor, like simple set up that matches Dave 2D's simplistic delivery.

2:22 "I cannot stress this enough" this is such a good pun

@Dave2D, to be honest, this video actually looked like a sponsored video, even on your narrative. The display, both the FHD+ OLED and the 16" 3.2K Mini LED is not new, they are even present in lenovo's 2023 lineup of the predecessors of these two laptops already. Only update is the Intel meteorlake but saying that Intel's new chip made these kind of new laptops possible is incorrect. AMD's Zen 3+ (6000 series) and Zen 4 (7400 series) have been providing this kind of efficiency and high integrated Graphics performance for 2 years now. Only problem is due to pressure from Intel, none of these brands put AMD chips in their premium series or make it extremely difficult to get, even if they release one. Just use a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Gen 8 with Ryzen 7 7840S(lenovo's custom tuning to the Zen 4) and you'll see that all the features, performance, efficiency, battery life you have discussed, are already there.

ahhhh sponsored segment. I will say, I am hoping to see laptops start including the Frore Airjet system. So far its the most interesting system I have seen from cooling in the laptop segment.

The usb drive speeds you mention sell USB 3.1 speeds short. It's more like 800mb/s, and my TB3 enclosure usually hits 1200mb/s when boosting in real life workloads, the 2500mb/s is purely theoretical when measuring bandwith with something like sandisk. In my experience it's not USB bandwidth but cache size that makes most of the difference when editing with multiple streams on an external drive - drives start to crawl once the DRAM buffer is full.

[User-rywj]

I can't believe it''s quiet either, that's why we need more tests with recorded samples, not just the numbers. We hope to see them soon on your channel. 👍

[Invictus-onie]

Very uncomfortable that Dave is now making videos on sponsored items. Hope this doesn't affect the content of his reviews or opinions

[ThemisGeorgoudis]

It's nice to see reviewers mention music production once in a while - thanks for that!

[miloshp]

They're looking amazing.
I've got a slim modern oled laptop and it's great but these Yoga you reviewed seem to be the pinnacle of the tech.

[christienleblond]

I'm so torn between this pro 9i, xps 16 and new asus g16 this year! heat + fan noise and display are top considerations though, so good to see lenovo making them a priority here!
