I might be minority here, but when gaming laptop like this shows up, battery life is merely means I can walk to next outlets without turn off my laptop. When on battery those laptop throttle hell out of it, you can't expect any gaming/productivity from battery usage

Lmao. Check the benchmarks in Adobe CS and a bunch of professional workloads Intel still leads even though AMD chips have the raw power.

Numbers aren't everything. Driver and developer support still count

AMD 5800H has a clear lead in productivity and has a significant advantage in power consumption to almost twice more power efficient than the intel 11800H counterpart. The efficiency translates to longer battery life and of course cooler operation, Cooler operation translates to quieter operation since fans won't need to spin that much. Cooler also gives laptop Longevity.

It's AMD's time and there's almost zero argument other than the on par Single core performance. Other than that, AMD just demolishes Intel in almost every Productivity test.

Don't get me wrong, I used to say the opposite ~5 years ago when Intel was clearly on the lead.

SD would be a pretty diminished site if the answer is always AMD.

Any serious thoughts on this laptop? I'm really considering pulling the trigger here. I use Photoshop and Lightroom, with occasional League & Diablo when I'm really bored.

I'm a huge AMD fan since the 90s but the current crop
11800h is pretty much on par with the Ryzen 7 5800h so it's actually a good creator choice despite what others think. It may not be as power efficient performance per watt but raw power is there and competitive.

Those are important advantages but if you are going to be exploring the full performance, which apparently everyone on here does all the time, battery life is kinda moot because you are going to be plugged in.

Funny how people will automatically assume intel is crap now, just as how people automatically assumed the same of amd before ryzen 5000. Have had this laptop to test for a while from the best buy deal. Only did a few benchmarks, but the cpu-z single thread beats the 5800h, and is the same in multi. In dolphin emulator benchmark, it actually beat my desktop 5600x by a wide margin. Perhaps that is just due to favorable calculations to intel cpus. If you see some youtube vids, the 11800h usually beats the 5800h in game fps by a small amt.

In terms of power draw, I haven't really seen the cpu go over 50watts in cpu benchmarks. This whole thing about it shooting up to 80watts and 109w pl2 dont show up in actual use to me. The ryzen may get more time in battery, but these are power hungry laptops anyway. An extra hr or 2 for web surfing may be important to some. You also lose out on thunderbolt 4 with amd. Some would prefer intel quicksync over amds igpu offerings. I rather have a mux option, something that most amd gaming laptops have. My biggest gripe of this laptop is being forced to use optimus.

That's a bit of a moot point when you have nvenc from the GPU. Both AMD's method and quicksync are terrible quality in comparison, where nvenc's results can rival software encoding.

Trust me, normal people buy Laptop for productivity for wire freedom....... Other than that, if they want to plug it in and have a real powerhouse, they use a desktop.

Long Battery life for a laptop is crucial. Also, being cool on your lap is again an advantage.

But then again, you will ignore all of these advantages and will still stick on the inferior CPU because you already made up your mind
Agreed, if I wanted to sit plugged in on my desk, I would just use my desktop.

I'd rather have a Ryzen laptop due to significantly increased battery life, I'd buy this in a heartbeat if it was powered by Team Red.
