  • Can’t you purchase extra warranty ?

    • -1

      Hopefully. Got to call them.

      • +2

        Don't call them. It's in the Lenovo app. And they'll probably have EOFY sale on extended warranty. Though in Australia technically you got 2 year statutory warranty anyway. But depends on the company as to how much you'll have to work for it. Though with Lenovo you have to work for your warranty at any point.

    Soldered ram 😒

      Yeah my next laptop honestly needs like minium 20gb+

      I like to end up with like 50+ firefox tabs when being so called productive.

      8gb is definitely not cutting it, 16gb is the new minimum.

      • 16gb shared with integrated graphics… Need at least 20gb to be like a regular computer with 4gb discrete graphics

        • Yeah

          basically want them sodimm 24gb minimum laptops now.

        • Yeah man, need 20gb just to run Firefox with YouTube and cat pictures

      • +1

        8GB has been insufficient for about 10 years. I'm beginning to max out 32GB these days without too much effort. Windows 11 is a pig. And so are Chromium-based browsers.

        • i dont even know if it's a chrominum thing

          Pretty sure websites are just so (profanity) bloated now.

          Web bloat, its a concept.

          I main firefox but i use a few extensions like ublock and some others but I think by having extensions every single tab ends up eating more memory, knowing me I have atleast 50 open at once or very shortly after and never close them so pretty easy to fill up on memory. I wish firefox had a feature to like limit it at 5gb so when I reach x limit I know to close some tabs.

          • @AeymothSky: Yeah maybe it's all my cashback extensions 😆

            • @bteq: I don't run any cashback extensions but Ik they exist.

              I just buy my cashback items on phone via the apps

      • run edge, uses much less ram per tab, it’s why it’s the default browser at our work as we only have 8and 16gb laptops…. chrome is crazy the amount of ram it wants per tab.

  • +10

    I thinks specs are not attractive

    • +29

      Yeah, suck it 4-eyes! 🤓

    • That's what my ex said.

      • To you, or her new bf?

        • im confused…. shes a trans?

    Bit of a meh deal compared to this one:

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/911108

    Faster CPU, 8GB more RAM, OLED display + a $110 gift card.

    • +13

      That's like comparing Dell Inspiron to Dell Latitude

      • Fair enough, I'll cop that.

        • +2

          But I agree with you for users that will just use the laptop at home without transporting it around.

          • @StuBalls: Yeah I just skimmed a review of this one and I can see the value for somebody who wants the touchscreen and the hinge functionality along with a very lightweight chassis.

            For everyone else, the higher specced Ideapad is probably more useful. I take back my original comment though, this is a pretty good deal.

        • +1

          I'd go for the IdeaPad. There isn't that much of a difference in build quality these days between IdeaPads and X1 Yogas.

          It is not an X1 Carbon or T series which have great build quality.

    • If you don't mind your laptop hinge breaking in under 2 years, buy the IdeaPad.

  • +1

    How do I know if battery is ok for high school?
    MobileMark 25: up to 11.2 hours
    JEITA 2.0: up to 22.6 hours
    Local video playback: up to 18.0 hours

    Weight is ok — Starting at 1.21kg

  • The weight and touchscreen is the key for me. Plus I can't afford an X1. Ram is plenty for a few years then I'll get another laptop.

  • I had one of these CPUs in a Latitude 7440 issued from work, and it used to try to fly away as the CPU fan was constantly ramping to 100% with doing very little. It might be worth checking out reviews and making sure the cooling is adequate on these units before purchase.

    Personally, I'd cop an AMD these days over Intel, as I feel like they're all overpriced and hot (literally) garbage. I have an Ultra 165H work laptop now, and it ALSO wants to try and fly away, though admittedly less than the 13th gen I had before. In comparison, my Ryzen 7840U stays cool and the fan doesn't start to turn on until I start doing intensive tasks.

    • +1

      You’re comparing a H-series Intel chip with a U-series AMD chip, so the thermals / power metrics will naturally favour AMD.

      The 165H is a 20W - 115W chip, whereas the 7840U is a 15W - 30W chip. It’s unlikely that the 165H would have been configured up to 115W if it’s a in a “thin and light” notebook, but still likely to have been given a TDP higher than 30W.

      Reality is that Intel just offers pretty poor “performance per Watt”, and AMD is slightly better. Both are much worse than Snapdragon, and in reality, nowhere close to Apple M4 (not that I’m an Apple fan, but it’s just the reality these days).

      • +1

        I am talking about 2 separate laptops here, I had a 13th Gen i7 1365U last year, and the fans would ramp up like crazy. Then, I had a similar experience with my 165H CPU this year. If we compare the 1365U with my 7840U, it's much worse than the AMD, and I found the CPU to be pretty slow. Admittedly, I never checked it if it was throttling, but I would put money on it.

        I've spent a lot of time around hardware too (trying to rule out user error here), my laptops float on elevated stands with nothing close to blocking their vents, so they have plenty of room for an intake, but the 13th gen just sucked IMO. The 165H I have this year is much better, but as you say, we're comparing two very different CPUs.

        Anyway, just posting my experience to warn others in case they haven't done their due diligence, as they might be disappointed with the performance of the 13th gen. I was.

        • Any idea how the newer ones are, like 258V and 255H?

          • +1

            @Seajoemama: nah I can’t comment on that as I haven’t personally worked with them sorry! I’m curious too.

          • @Seajoemama: V chips are more efficient, these are known as the Lunar Lake architecture, they are on the level of Mac books and outperform Ryzen alternatives on battery life and even iGPU benchmarks but remember these are low power chips so not suitable for mutli cpu core workloads

            H ones are more powerful, these are more commonly found in creator or gaming laptops, should avoid for day to day use

            and the U chips are something in between.

            Lunar lake review example:

    • my Ryzen 7 8845HS cpu is super hot under idle load or low browser load reaching 60 but overheats to consistent 80+ in my acer swift go…

      kinda left me really disappointed really.

      • Ryzen 7 8845HS cpu is super hot under idle load or low browser load reaching 60 but overheats to consistent 80+

        What do you mean "overheats" ?

        It's rated to 100c - https://www.amd.com/en/products/processors/laptop/ryzen/8000… - if you're getting to 80+ then everything is fine.

        • Well I'd rather not

          The chassis and keyboard itself becomes hot to the touch!

          Like when typing it is painfully hot if I touch the metal chassis i will either have some kind of burn feeling or definitely hot enough for me to sweat out my fingers!

  • 12mb cache, 16 soldered gigs memory, I wonder if it's even a bargain

  • +2

    Weak CPU

  • Have the Carbon X1, best laptop keyboard i've ever used, 7 years old, flew off a car at 60kmh and still works well (just has run out of support for windows 11)

    • story time?

      • +1

        Had a blonde moment and left it on my car roof

        Luckily it wasn’t password protected
        Someone found it, went through my downloads and found a receipt with my address.

        Had a minor crack but otherwise ran fine and still works great to this day

        Would buy again

  • -1

    every company out there is trying to get rid of their stock with intel bloat. the times of computing we are in right now, one should be paid to buy an intel laptop. :)

  • why is the laptop so expensive. is that an amazing CPU or something?

    • +3

      The ThinkPad X-series laptops from Lenovo were described by Trusted Reviews as "combining an ultraportable's weight and form factor with a durable design."[6] The X-series laptop styles include traditional ultraportables, as well as convertible tablet designs. According to Lenovo, the ThinkPad X-series laptops include low power processors, offer long battery life, and several durability features such as a Roll Cage (Magnesium Frame around the Display), magnesium alloy covers, and a spill-resistant keyboard but currently lacks a replaceable battery and upgradable RAM slots.

      • Battery can be swapped out. https://www.xda-developers.com/replace-battery-lenovo-thinkp…

        This one also has a Telstra approved 4G WWAN card on board, which I'll use.
        I half expect the deal to be canceled as an error as the price is SO much lower than the refurbished ones, and it has better specs compared to them.
        Maybe they are just getting rid of old stock.

        Knowing my luck an awesome X1 + touch deal will now appear.

        • Do 5G WWAN cards exist and is it even worth having LTE in a laptop or tablet.

          I feel like those things are nice but then you're forved to buy another sim card seperate from your phone .
          .

          • @AeymothSky: I just buy new sims with included data when I go away. 4G will do as I don't think there is any 5G coverage in the bush anyway.
            My Gen 6 X1 Carbon has better reception than my phone, hopefully the X13 will be the same.

            • @hobbyrods: Ah right,

              I've never owned a laptop with 4G but I do know they exist.

              Prepaid 30 day data sims does make it seem cheap…

              These wwan modules r usually a pretty expensive add on though aye and it's not transferrable?

              • @AeymothSky: With mine on the X1 Carbon I just put a sim in and away it goes.
                Nice bonus as I didn't notice it till after purchasing the X13

                • @hobbyrods: I currently own a X13 yoga gen 1, 8gb, i5-10210U.

                  I notice it has the slots but yeah don't have any smartcard or wwan thingy with it.

                  The battery life and overheat is abysmal but the its pretty light. Planning to sell it soon.

                  Nice that it just came with then I guess.

                  • @AeymothSky: I am really hoping this is not a down grade from my X1 Gen 6. As I need battery life as the X1 will only last a couple of hours now. But given how heavily I've used it, it has stood up well.

          • @AeymothSky: As a technician working across sites where I don't have wifi access, I use my X13 with a $20p/m data sim. For the cost of the data plan, I'm more than happy to avoid needing to hotspot, especially as at times I need to move my phone far from the laptop while maintaining connection.

            The need for LTE really depends on your usecase, and it won't be useful for everyone.

            • +1

              @kongkurr: Yeah, in that case I think since you're workin and earning money it's different to just casual use where it's a small hassle using your phone via usb tether or whatnot (which probably isn't good for the phone I guess).

          • @AeymothSky: Yeah, 5G WWAN is in the most recent models I've had quoted, 4G is much more likely in ozbargain models as they clear slightly older stock.

            We have 4G cards in all our work laptops and for field workers its great, wherever they are they open a laptop and have instant internet. No finding an open wifi network, no hotspotting off your phone, fewer 'I'm trying to connect to mcdonalds wifi to submit my report but it's not working' calls. everything from the last few years supports eSIM as well as physical sim, and some carriers/plans will let you add a data sim to an existing plan for $5/month

            If you mostly use your laptop in locations with wifi and are happy to hotspot the rest of the time, it doesn't add much value but it's a real win for everything else.

            • @slimpickings: Yeah,

              what kind of job titles are common that companies make ppl use em?

              I totally get about not fluffing about with public wifi or uni or library wifi.

              for security reasons the best is definitely just to use mobile data.

              I'm wondering though w those moduels are the anteenes like built into the laptop or the module itself?

              • @AeymothSky:

                what kind of job titles are common that companies make ppl use em?

                Pretty much any kind of field worker who hits up multiple sites a day and has to type up notes about each visit - think NDIS, some branches of nursing, various sales and tech positions.

                I'm wondering though w those moduels are the anteenes like built into the laptop or the module itself?

                The antennas usually run around the edges of the frame the same way wifi antennas are.

                • @slimpickings: Ah yeah, so by field worker ya just mean jobs that require you to move around a lot where you don't have a fixed location like at a office.

  • +1

    Not sure why I can't change my + vote, but when I looked at the spec, this actually isn't a good deal. CPU 3 gens out of date (at least an i7). Too little soldered RAM (ok maybe enough for some but it's older too). Pretty mediocre screen spec. This PC should be this price. At this price, I guess it'd do, being that at least it's an X-series. But having old Intel CPU it's a bit pointless as a 2-in-1 cuz your battery isn't going to last that long. I think better to get something newer, but maybe if this is all the money you have and you really need/want a ThinkPad and X-series and have a good reason for it.

  • Shipped. That was quick, coming DHL out of Sydney.

    • Curious about battery life

  • I'll let you know next week, arriving Monday.
