Curious.Īnd since we have returned to the outside of the PC, let’s address that screen. Oddly, the power button is also on the right, even though this isn’t a 2-in-1. You get the Lenovo charging port, a USB-A Gen 3.2 Gen 1 port, a full-sized HDMI 2.0 port, one Thunderbolt 4/USB4 Type-C port (with DisplayPort and Power Delivery 3.0), and a headphone/mic combo jack on the left.Īnd then a second USB-A Gen 3.2 Gen 1 port and, rare these days, a full-sized SD card reader on the right. And A 5 MP Windows Hello-compatible webcam with a physical shutter switch (on the side of the PC, interestingly) and a quad-array microphone for your hybrid work needs.Ĭonnectivity looks modern, with dual-band Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.1. There’s a 6-speaker solution with Dolby Atmos on-board for immersive sound. Battery life won’t be good: Lenovo claims up to 6 hours using a productivity-based benchmark, so I’m guessing that the real-world results will be closer to 4. Power comes from a 75-watt-hour battery that can be rapid-charged by its proprietary 170-watt power supply with its proprietary charging port. The review unit is powered by a 45-watt 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900H processor with 14 cores (6 Performant, 8 Efficient), 32 GB of fast LPDDR5X RAM, and 1 TB of PCIe Gen 4 M.2 SSD storage, and the NVIDIA GPU has 8 GB of dedicated GDDR6 VRAM. Since we’re starting with the internals, let’s get more specific. So this configuration is, indeed, pretty impressive. That didn’t seem all that impressive at first- the HP ZBook Firefly G10 16-Inch I recently reviewed is 0.78-inches thick and weighs much less at 3.88 pounds, for example-but there’s some serious hardware inside of this PC, including an Intel H-series processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 dedicated laptop GPU. Of course, slim is relative on a 16-inch portable PC: looking at the specs, I can see that the Slim Pro 9i (in 16-inch form, there’s a 14-inch version as well) is 0.71 inches thick and starts at 4.9 pounds. But there’s more: the Slim Pro models are also powered by custom Intel chipsets that are 24 percent smaller than usual, which is what enables these PCs to be so thin, er, slim.
