love how you did the comparison between the cpu graphics vs the discrete gpu!

This laptop on sale right now at Costco for $1299 (i.e., in the United States) That is an absolute steal!

AMD Ryzen™ 7 6800HS Processor (3.20 GHz up to 4.70 GHz) and it said to weigh 1.58Kg, which I do not consider light or portable. I am concerned that be getting something significantly different from the ones reviewed here and other channels. My browser usually has between 20 and 30 pages open and I work simultaneously on word and excel documents, while playing music on YouTube. Tasks that my Ideapad 5 14 inch took in its stride with 8GB ram and 256 GB hard drive. I am replacing it because one hinge broke suddenly and I could not lift the screen and after taking it to a repair shop, now it doesn't power on. I'm hoping to get similar or better performance from the yoga or to find a more portable option

This is now on sale for $800 on best buy with the 16 gig model.

Excellent review. Like the gaming video demo and the listing of power vs legion and others.

[drjones]

Great review and the Linux test was awesome for when you need it for dual boot

[dominikbaricak]

Lenovo is making great laptops right now. I would say best

[neddreadmaynard]

My week isn't complete without the 'Lon looks into webcam' look. Droopy The Dog meets Herman Munster. Classic.

[calvinwalker]

I think you made a minor error on the price. $1400 is the base model but configured like shown it’s $1765. Still a good deal!

[BlendingWithHenry]

Pretty sad Lenovo is being so cheap Lon that they won't give you the laptop to keep. You're doing a full review and giving them exposure on their new machine, let alone you're an established YouTuber with 340K subs.

Wow, what a great review. I've been looking at this laptop and just assumed RDR2 wouldnt run well on it. Amazing!

[anilkumarraju]

What about battery life for this can anyone please reply any longtime user who used this as part of their day-to-day life.

[webacc]

thank you very much, this is what I needed to know, battery life under high load, I thought it is about 10 to 11 hours/low load, 7 hours/high load.

[mustafasattar]

can this laptop handle cad and bim software's well ?

[keyboard_g]

This looks like a great machine. Especially for the price. I would even disable the Rtx3050 and run on integrated rdna2 and save the battery.

Quick note - if you’re using the FREE version of Resolve it doesn’t use the GPU for decoding video. The paid version does.

[jbc]

Love the videos, you explain everything with professional detail. I recommend reducing the busyness of the space behind you. It really helps with producing the cleanest and slickest content.

[LiveLife]

Lon correction FYI
6800HS processor model is $1399 and the 6900HS is much more expensive btw. I just checked the site.

I just got this today but must be missing something. My old surface pro 6 seems to have a better display, even though this one has better specs. Is the some config that I’m not seeing?
