    This vs the Ideapad pro 5?

    Also is there a similar priced one with a dGPU?

    • shellshocked on 08/11/2021 - 09:53
      +2

      HS CE for performance and power efficiency. U series, in the IdeaPad Pro, is binned for power efficiency

      90hz OLED on the Yoga vs 60hz IPS on the 14" IdeaPad Pro. OLED will provide better image quality.

      The IdeaPad Pro adds up to $1364 with the MX450 option, and a 5800U.

      It just depends on your budget and needs.

      • ChickenDinner123 on 08/11/2021 - 09:59

        Ah okay. For such a small price difference the yoga would be better.

        I just wished they gave us DGPU for 14"

  • vovka on 08/11/2021 - 09:50

    Wasn't it $1700 just awhile ago?

    • kouk on 08/11/2021 - 10:09

      You're thinking of the Yoga Carbon

      • vovka on 08/11/2021 - 10:15
        +1

        Yeah, you're right that was Carbon. Which is now $1,681.21 with the new code.

  • Appox7 on 08/11/2021 - 09:59

    Is this good for a uni student for light gaming?

    • [Deactivated] on 08/11/2021 - 10:01

      Not that good for gaming unless you are happy with low-med settings

    • shellshocked on 08/11/2021 - 10:02
      +3

      It's plenty for light gaming. Refer to notebookcheck for what performance may be like in games with an MX450. You will be limited to HD and low settings for modern AAA titles, but Esports games should be fine.

      • TigerWoops on 08/11/2021 - 14:33

        Thanks for detail. This is not my spec for games though…

    • Blackcat2 on 11/11/2021 - 10:36

      With GeforceNow already available, a beefy laptop spec is no longer a necessity to do gaming

  • cchid72 on 08/11/2021 - 10:29

    Just exploring the Website. Yoga 7 Gen 6 14" AMD Slate Grey with 3 Year Warranty was - $1890.74. (SINGLE11) gave me a $185.79 discount. (EDUCOMM) still works and gave me a $189.07 discount. Try both the codes to decide which works better for you.

  • HitlersDad on 08/11/2021 - 10:30

    this is non touch?

  • fan8956 on 08/11/2021 - 10:31

    I guess no additional ram slot for upgrade?

  • zetmandude on 08/11/2021 - 10:39

    good value especially for this screen.

  • zbc on 08/11/2021 - 10:48

    Ships in 4 weeks, fwiw.

  • jasswolf on 08/11/2021 - 13:28

    Interested to see if the OLED supports BFI.

  • [Deactivated] on 08/11/2021 - 15:31

    If only this was touch screen.

    • shiny1 on 08/11/2021 - 19:31

      There is an option for this. You can talk to a rep and get them to price it to $1950 more or less. I got a rep to authorise a Slim 7 Carbon, 5600u with mx450 and touch for 1940. It's a very big premium for the lighter chassis, touch and mx450, but I didn't care.

    What are the chances the price drops even lower during Click Frenzy, Black Friday or Cyber Monday…

    • AussieMark on 08/11/2021 - 17:10

      Very high but I got them to write me a quote yesterday and it's valid until Nov 22 so was going to wait a week or two and see

      Keep it on the down low

      • logisync on 09/11/2021 - 01:36

        I'm curious on how you got them to right the quote down etc.?

        • vovka on 09/11/2021 - 07:03

          From your cart there is an option to request a quote.

  • JeremRrss on 08/11/2021 - 17:33

    Ryzen, 16Go, OLED from Samsung, that's really tempting instead of my MB Air M1 16Go. Same price point…

  • Click_It on 08/11/2021 - 23:59

    This vs ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 6?
    I've narrowed my search down to both models but just need to identify the pros and cons of each.

    Yoga Slim 7 Pro is newer, seems to have better OLED and battery. The X1 is older but a flagship model so it's going to win in other areas. But I would need the touchscreen version of the Yoga Slim 7 Pro.

    EDIT: Nevermind, this isn't a 2-in-1. Got confused.

    • YRT on 09/11/2021 - 08:45

      The X1 Yoga Gen 6 is very good, except it doesnt have ambient light sensor. Coming from Macintosh lines where screen brightness is auto adjusted, not having ALS is bothersome.

      • Click_It on 09/11/2021 - 11:29
        +1

        I didn't know that, thanks. Though personally I've never had ambient light sensor before so I guess I won't miss what I've never experienced.

        For anyone looking at the gen 6, I found "EDUCOMM" took almost $400 off the price on my specced machine.

        • Click_It on 09/11/2021 - 17:17

          In fact I just checked, a fully specced X1 Yoga Gen 6 with that code takes $500.90 off the price. Not bad!
          Could we expect better from Black Friday or should I just buy now? :)

    Do I need a student account to access the discount? I am not a student so I do I get the deal?

    • Click_It on 09/11/2021 - 21:32

      I just used my work email (.edu.au) which worked. Failing that I would have used my daughters school address.

    Asian countries have a big sale tomorrow 11.11 so lenovo singapore etc

    will wait and see if Australia has one too otherwise will buy

    • dullbeard on 10/11/2021 - 22:39

      Do you have any advice on purchasing from Singapore store from Oz? Have you done that before? I can log in with education account, and my Australian shipping address shows up.

      • AussieMark on 10/11/2021 - 23:40

        oh i havent tried to be honest but saw other people have done it here (check out the 20% ebay lenovo post just posted)

        I dont think any difference but it will take longer to send. also not sure if you are meant to pay GST on incoming goods

  • myoda on 14/11/2021 - 10:50

    Got one. Fed up with looking for the 'best deal'.

    Once you have added it to the cart, you have to hit "apply coupon" to the Singles 11 prompt for the extra discount to apply. I was getting $1800+ and couldn't work out why.

    Classic PEBCAK..

    • AussieMark on 14/11/2021 - 11:21

      What did you get in the end. I got the carbon because I like light weight

      • myoda on 15/11/2021 - 07:31

        Sure, the one in the description. Added $88 for the 2 year extended 'warranty', which is about the term my laptops last.

        • AussieMark on 15/11/2021 - 13:24

          Ah nice. The laws on warranty changed in Aus a few years back and now things must last 'a reasonable time'
          But try telling that to the Lenovo rep lol and you'll probably go nowhere

          At least the Lenovo warranty prices are reasonable

          PS I got the carbon so let's compare later

  • Dodo1203 on 18/11/2021 - 01:30

    Where could I get an access to the edustore?
    Someone can help me?

    • AussieMark on 18/11/2021 - 01:36

      try asking the lenovo chat if they will quote you the education store price

  • Assburg on 18/11/2021 - 15:59

    Anyone get this shipped yet? My expected shipping date blew about by another week today, thinking about cancelling.

    • AussieMark on 18/11/2021 - 16:14

      I got Lenovo carbon. Pretty happy with the price. Shipping date not shown. Some msg said early dec

      • Assburg on 19/11/2021 - 02:04

        Ah, you've been more patient than me.

        My use case for it quickly fell off so I cancelled…

    • viperxz on 20/11/2021 - 06:35

      Despite saying 3 weeks delivery time whilst ordering (which the online store is still showing), Lenovo is now showing my delivery date as 09/03/2022. If this is the actual date then I'll probably be cancelling.

      Four months is an eternity for a laptop, so I'm basically paying a premium and purchasing old tech.

      I understand there are supply issues, however I'd almost go as far as to say this is misleading advertising.

      • Assburg on 20/11/2021 - 08:39

        Yeah I reported them to the ACCC for a couple reasons. This being one, then their misleading order cancellation policy being the other:

        Para 1 of the policy states no contract has been formed untill they ship the laptop, but para 7 tries to bind you to some term that you "can't cancel an order"… Obviously the existence of a term when no contract has been formed is contradictory, but not everyone understands contracts.

        You'll need to call 13 LENOVO to cancel, too. No option on the website that I could find.

        • AussieMark on 20/11/2021 - 10:00
          +1

          I cancelled via email or chat. Not charges or restocking fee if it hasn't been shipped yet

          • Assburg on 20/11/2021 - 12:26

            @AussieMark: I must've just been unlucky in the resistance I came up against 😞

            • AussieMark on 22/11/2021 - 20:41

              @Assburg: Hehe to be fair they said they will contact the cancellation team. And then I also cancelled via email too just to make sure

              I never rely on just one mode of communication for cancellations anymore haha

  • tanksinatra on 18/11/2021 - 16:47

    I'd have jumped on this if it included a MicroSD card reader.

    • AussieMark on 18/11/2021 - 19:12

      isnt that something you just buy and plug into the usb? think i got one for $1-2

      • tanksinatra on 19/11/2021 - 08:24

        Nah I want one I can just leave in all the time.

  • ocyrion on 27/11/2021 - 12:12

    Has anyone ordered and received one of these recently? I ordered October 22, originally was estimated to be sent Nov 13. It delays by a few days more each time, now delayed to December 10 ship date.

    • pear on 27/11/2021 - 14:42

      Bought one November 8 and got delayed to December 10 as well. Might cancel at this rate

      • AussieMark on 27/11/2021 - 20:18

        only cancel if you can get a higher cashback 16% at moment

        • pear on 27/11/2021 - 22:40

          Am I missing something? What does cashback have to do with cancelling this?

          • AussieMark on 27/11/2021 - 23:24

            @pear: i mean the cashback rate has gone up so if you get a better deal than worth cancelling if not then i wouldnt cancel.

            • pear on 28/11/2021 - 19:54

              @AussieMark: I cancelled the order through chat and was tolled they'd contact the cancellation team as well. When did U get an update about your cancellation?

              Ps I'm looking to get an xps 15 during dells current sale with 12% cashback

        • ocyrion on 28/11/2021 - 11:11

          When I ordered there was 14% cashback at the time, however it didn't track, so put a manual claim through which was initially denied due to coupon (which was listed on Lenovo's site), so Cashrewards put it through. Will see if it works. Tempted to get the Carbon instead if that will arrive quicker, but I wanted the MX450 for a bit of extra light gaming. Hopefully this thing will ship before the 10th!

          • AussieMark on 28/11/2021 - 14:03

            @ocyrion: Sure not sure if it helps but I got the quote first then cash rewards.

            That's a good cashback haha I think I got the same.

            X1 also looked good too in terms of peice. but I think there will be another gen in 3-6 months so I'd rather wait for that. I'm on a gen 6 x1 carbon. Was going to see if I can sell online for like $900 since never had problems with it and perfect condition haha will see 😂

            Fingers crossed I like the carbon more

            • ocyrion on 28/11/2021 - 19:09

              @AussieMark: @AussieMark I originally wanted the Carbon but got sick of waiting for it to be available for order. What's your shipping ETA on it?

              • AussieMark on 06/12/2021 - 11:41

                @ocyrion: I get it this week

                • ocyrion on 07/12/2021 - 17:22

                  @AussieMark: Sweet. They've just updated my ship date from Dec 10 to today (Slim 7 Pro), so let's see what happens. Ordered October 22.

                  • AussieMark on 09/12/2021 - 11:18

                    @ocyrion: Opened carbon today looks amazing but do agree with what I read the keyboard is not as good as the x1 carbon I have. Hard to explain with words but they dont go in as deep when I press and feels a bit cheaper

                  • AussieMark on 09/12/2021 - 11:27

                    @ocyrion: Let me know what you think of the keyboard hah

                    • ocyrion on 09/12/2021 - 14:22

                      @AussieMark: Hey mate, Slim 7 Pro is on the way, held up in China ATM with DHL. Did yours ship from China directly or out of Sydney and how long did it take? I tried out last year's Intel Carbon (the white one) and found the keys had decent feedback but almost no travel. The new Carbon is meant to have a better keyboard than the Slim 7 so we'll see, I'll let you know. How's the rest of the machine - performance, screen, battery etc?

                      • AussieMark on 09/12/2021 - 14:30

                        @ocyrion: screen looks really good but honestly only just finished the updates so far.

                        I do prefer grey over white but am a bit worried about finger marks or discolouration on the keyboard over time.

                        Yeah I have x1 carbon 6 and the keyboard is superior but the sound and the Yoga carbon looks pretty fancy pants. I'll try it properly and let you know.

                        Re: Shipping hmm I assume they all from china. came from DHL express today.

                        re: Feedback vs travel comments, never heard that before but it makes sense now haha. I was thinking shallow keys. Didnt get the MX450 geforce but may regret later.

                        Can probably sell my X1 carbon gen 6 for $900 or more since its in excellent coniditon and still 8 months of warranty but lets see.

                        • ocyrion on 09/12/2021 - 15:47

                          @AussieMark: The Carbons have several layers of paint I believe, so hopefully OK. I like the dark grey of the Slim 7, which is one of the reasons I ordered it, that and the MX450 (which may turn out pointless?) I'm upgrading from an Asus UX331UAL (8th gen i5) that only weighs 970g, bit concerned I might not like the extra weight of the Slim 7 (near 1.4kg in the 5800HS + MX450 + OLED spec). There's some hold up with DHL but hopefully I see it early next week!

                          The Thinkpads always have better keyboards but the 5800U and OLED will crush that machine otherwise :D

                          • AussieMark on 09/12/2021 - 15:49

                            @ocyrion: yeah the screen does look a hell of a lot bigger than my x1 too since it covers the full screen. The x1 has a gap at the bottom
