Decided to plunge in when i saw Best Denki Exclusive with some promo going on. Yoga Slim 7 Pro. Decided to give OLED screen a go instead.

5800H
16gb 3200Mhz Dual Channel
1tb Samsung PM981a NVME SSD (Damn this is no slouch SSD)
2.8K OLED 90Hz Panel
61Wh Battery

Enjoy! Time for review? :cool:

searched online and found the culprit. 4800H isn't that bad, but it was the software. After disabling hybrid mode in Vantage, the battery life increased to close to 4 hours which is acceptable. Before that, the battery will end at about 1.5 hours or less than 2 hours no matter how, even just surfing web sites.
For my lenovo legion 7 I find that I need to enable hybrid mode, turn to quiet mode and also turn battery saver on then I can get more than 4 hours of usage. Of course RGB is a nono and also the brightness of screen is 50%,

is the texture rubbery? My colleague has one 5 years old and it has turned sticky, brittle and some parts broke off.

if you google yoga cracked plastic its a common issue. seems like durability is sacrificed to be thin and light
Hi there,

No texture rubbery. Its metal at the top and bottom, the keyboard area is plastic instead. As in don't get me wrong, plastic is still fine. Cause by using all metal, it can get hot to the touch. Lenovo yoga slim 7 pro uses plastic on the keyboard area. I think it is a smarter move.

I avoided rubbery texture as i do not like matte and non slip surface. Personally after coming in from Razer mouse and some other gaming mouse that has this texture. Hate it and i will never ever get that haha.

2nd day of usage. Oled screen is so beautiful!

Did you try to remove the Corsair iCue software? The software uses quite a fair bit of processing power if it is not disabled or uninstall. So much so that it will affect your software and gaming performance as well.

Btw, is it normal to have the Legion 5 Pro running 103 degrees at max performance setting while gaming? Set is 5800H + 3070.
