- Lenovo's new Windows-on-ARM (WOA) business laptop, packing 5G mmWave support, is the first with the Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 CPU. Will the battery life make you go "Whoa!" over WOA, though?

Who's the genius who thought this needed a soundtrack, and one too loud at that? Very distracting and just a bad, unnecessary idea. But that is jmo.
It's the disease of the modern era
I liked it. Wish they would have made the guy more quite. Track was banging.
Music is great with this video. Loved it
Yea, the music is bit too loud
LOOOOOL
Back ground music is annoying.
Can you please turn up the background music I can hear what you're saying too clearly
Honestly, this is an informative, comprehensive, and well written summary. But the music is not only distracting, and way too loud, it is probably the most annoying tune I've ever heard. Please, please, PLEASE, do not ruin your otherwise excellent videos in this way. It made the video a pain to watch.
There was someone constantly talking during the song
It feels like we are about to go back to those mini laptops from 2012
what is with the background music?
Great info and looks like a great, highly mobile device. Please turn down the background music down though, difficult to hear the speaker.
Stopped by to see what you guys had to say about this laptop. I almost bought it a little while ago, but figured I's look into it a little more. I'd be using it for some work, but I'd be using it quite often for everyday tasks and streaming video like netflix, showtime and so on. will this laptop handle streaming sites well? Will it play movies that are put on the drive, and not lag or overheat? I did look for a follow up video on this, but couldn't find one.
In my experience, Lenovo always has really bad speakers on all of their devices, so, not sure if streaming is what this is meant for; but it's a very efficient 5nm processor, so I doubt you'd have overheating issues.
You really need to fire your video editor for adding that annoying background music. Makes zero sense
I agree.
I want this but it seems that it's not yet ready for programmer's use-case.
im a lenovo user from the x61, x230, t430 and t530. if this x13s is supported by my local carriers here in Manila and can run all my windows application for accounting work this is a worthy investment.
Thanks for the information
Hopefully I can visit Manila one day !
I'm still waiting for an ARM product that can achieve at least the performance of an M1 chip.
Future has arrived with sd x elite and oryon.
Is it good for gaming & emulators ?
will this laptop be available in the philippines?
I dig the background music
How long the battery will last on linux 😁
Who uses that red drop? Why mouse click?
2x usb C + audio jack = "Decent Connectivity" in 2022. I need a drink ;-D
Actually its only 1 the other is charging.
i like the finish
its interesting that in terms of performance this chip aint really far from apple M1, I will be carefully watch for more laptops and tablets with this cpu
chip is great but windows is not optimized .
@@aayush_789 optimized the gaming experiences or the optimization for the chip itself?
How about linux on this machine?
Can we install Linux on it? And can it handle coding/programming tasks since these are processor-intensive tasks?
Probably, there are a few distros that come with an ARM version. And some ARM only distros too. It's been a minute since I was researching that stuff though so things might have changed, I can't say for certain what offerings there are. But if you Google it I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for. The ARM based distros also use ARM only repositories, so you can just install packages and know they'll be ARM compatible. Though I can't speak to selection. I know there's been an effort to port stuff over to ARM, but you might run into a few applications not being available.
My only question is will it be able to run all the windows applications without lag or draining the battery.
No. The answer is no.
Most of them will work fine.
Windows 11 has a built-in emulator, so the answer is all 35 million applications....
Does it support TPM2.0? Anyone know 😊
How about engineering software like autocad , revit, etc ? Can run on the thinkpad x13 s ? Because use arm processor
Why aren't they calling it a WARM laptop
Looks interesting, but I'd love to have it as a tablet form. That could be a worthy contender to Microsoft Surface Pro X.
It was made destroy Mac m processor
This chip is in the Surface Pro 9 5G.
Windows 11 has a built-in emulator so app compatibility is a non-issue...
Hands on, yeah, but you barely did hands on it. I was hoping that you fire up some apps, do benchmarks, comparisons etc. Other than that, we did hear all the same info as the official Lenovo announcements
background music is annoying. I can't focus on the topic.
I love that more companies are pushing the ARM laptop section further, but 28 hours = 14 hours in the real world, and the exclusion of USB-A is ridiculous.
for what would you need usb a on such a device honestly? (btw you can just use an adapter for your legacy usb stick) .. 14 hours would be 3 times what other devices have to offer.. but i think it would last longer than 14h
@@marcello4258 USB-A is not as "legacy" as people like to say it is. Many people have to have access to it for their workflow. The entire idea of having long battery life in an ultrabook, is to be ultra portable, having to carry dongles defeats the purpose. Also, in my experience, battery is typically only around 50 to 60 percent of manufacturers projections. Apple tend to be the only caveat.
@@LazyPCRehab RS232 was once the same or ps/2 it is called legacy because the industry already moved that is the fact. And on such a device you wouldn't use other HID hence USBC is the way to go and takes much less space inside the device. No the battery is what it is printed on it. Lasting depends on usage as usual. I have for instance on my Thinkpad usually only around 30-40% brightness indoor so I get pretty decent battery life. The CPU consumption is in office works pretty low and the video Codecs are asics and not CPU bounded
@@marcello4258 When the majority of mobile workstation laptops and workstations in general, are missing USB-A, then you might be able to argue that it is legacy, but not until then. I argue that USB-A is not "legacy" in real-world work situations, not technicalities. And yes, rule of thumb is 50% the manufacturers quoted battery life. If you have to turn the brightness down to 20% and turn WiFi just to reach it, it isn't real. I imagine battery is even better if you turn the screen completely off, but we wouldn't use a metric such as that.
@@LazyPCRehab no
Lose the music.
That background music is annoying
Hopefully this can be a more repairable and upgradeable alternative to Apple silicon.
At least it has removable 2242 NVME, although there's still virtually no retail replacement options on the market apart from the 256GB pullouts.
Couple of years later: We got couple of AAA Games for Apple Silicon, but none working games on Windows on Arm. Nice...
Background music was so annoying.
Price is way to high and this should have been 3 by 2 come on lenevo
The price of this device is 900 ₤.
price is too high for a ARM laptop
The arm chip is very strong
It's funny....I've heard some haters say that the look of Apple's MacBook line is "dated" ...... back in the late 90s, I was a salesman in Circuit City and this Lenovo looks EXACTLY like the same Lenovo brand we sold waaaay back then...when lenovo was an IBM product
Lenovo was never an IBM product...Thinkpad was.
This is the business line of lenovo, I don't believe the average person would prefer this thinkpad instead of a macbook air.
@@May16Joe Yes...and I did re-read my first comment....What I should have written was the current Lenovo looks like the Original Thinkpad from the mid-late 90s....ThinkPad was the product line that IBM later sold to Lenovo.....and they look identical
@@May16Joe No one wants a MBA except high and college students. I have never seen a working white collar professional with a MBA...lol
Super annoying background. Can't hear the dude talk.
从未见过一个中国企业跟随美国政府这么积极，在中国政府采购供货的产品一个比一个垃圾
terribly slow and it doesn't support any apps
Do you even have a sound guy? This music sounds like it should be played over the POV of a character drunkly weaving with a smile on their face and it's played so loudly, it's almost difficult to hear this guy talking.
I was about to make another comment with this same message. You should fire your "musician" whose music makes me feel queasy. Gross. Are you trying to make me throw up?
