I was viewing the last IdeaPad Flex deal:

https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/796262

But the 8GB ram was a dealbreaker.

While browsing, I noticed a link to a very similar laptop, for only slightly more money, but it included 16GB ram, and instead had a 16" screen.

• Processor : 13th Generation Intel® Core™ i5-1335U Processor (E-cores up to 3.40 GHz P-cores up to 4.60 GHz)
• Operating System : Windows 11 Home 64

• Memory : 16 GB LPDDR4X-4266MHz (Soldered)
• Storage : 512 GB SSD M.2 2242 PCIe Gen4 QLC
• Display : 16.0" WUXGA (1920 x 1200), IPS, Glare, Touch, 45%NTSC, 300 nits, 60Hz, Narrow Bezel
• Camera : 1080P FHD with Dual Microphone
• Battery : 3 Cell Li-Polymer 52.5Wh
• AC Adapter / Power Supply : 65W Round 30% PCC 3pin AC Adapter - ANZ

Seems like great value for a touch screen laptop, with decent specs.

There is also the CR deal, which may provide more of a discount than this code, as I assume they are not stackable:

  Good value. Having said that, CPU, screen and battery are all are bit under-specified. Still, for the money, pretty good.

    i thought 13th gen cpu is much much better than the 12th ? or depending the i number?

      Not really. 12th gen and 13th gen are pretty close performance wise. Still a pretty decent performance boost but if you actually want a beefy CPU you’d look at AMD’s options instead.

        Unfortunately the architecture is the same, so a lot of the performance uplift comes at the cost of power I think (go confirm if you're buying!)

        Intel desperately needs to get "Intel 4" out the door early next year.

  Tiny battery for a 16" laptop

  Note:

  1 USB C / TB4 port only in this time and age is pretty bad.
  Power connector old round type

      BadGiraffe on 30/08/2023 - 15:04

      It's Thunderbolt 4, so it can charge, output video, data transfer, etc.

      Pretty sure it can, anyway. Can someone confirm?

  This, or the cheaper AMD version? Flex 5 AMD

    Good spot! I was about to pull the trigger on this, and now you have me doing some more research.

      Can it play Crysis?

  Can you use the HDMI and USB C as multiple output on different screens?
