My reason for returning it was that I was very frustrated at the battery life. I could not seemingly get it to go better than 3 hours on battery. It has no MUX switch (it really needs one) and there's no setting in Lenovo's software to disable it. To disable the GPU, you have to turn it off in BIOS and then you loose the HDMI port..... so I set it up for a return. Then, literally on the day I had to return it... I was using it extensively and the battery life wasn't getting better until I had let it get below 80% and all of a sudden the battery life started creeping up and up and up. Then it showed 5 hrs... then 7 hrs. But I was too concerned that it wasn't doing it the way I wanted it to, where I could shut down the GPU altogether. So I returned it.
It's not a perfect device. None are. Don't stress about the 16GB of RAM. Yes, 32GB would be better. You're not dying at 16GB, you're just not. Plus, that 5050, with 8GB of VRAM? That's a damn solid GPU for budget gaming. Let's not forget that this is $714 we're talking about. Plus, that 1800P screen.... yeah, that's one sharp screen. It's really nice. The negative of OLED is glare. That's it. Super bright, high quality.
Don't sleep on this deal if you think it covers your needs.
EDIT: BTW, that's a full powered 5050 too, not a cut rate unit and the cooling on this laptop is very good. It's never loud. The fans spin up of course, but it's pretty quiet.
Community Reviews
This Lenovo IdeaPad Pro 5 stands out as a 16 inch OLED budget gaming laptop, with the 120 hertz 2.8K screen and full powered RTX 5050 drawing the strongest praise. The display is described as sharp, bright, and unusually good for the price, and the cooling is reported to stay quiet. The main tradeoffs are soldered 16GB RAM with no upgrade path, plus battery life concerns and no easy way to disable the GPU without affecting the HDMI port. It looks especially compelling if mobile gaming and the OLED panel matter more than future upgrades.
The OLED panel delivers a bright, high-quality 1800P display for mobile gaming use.
The full-powered RTX 5050 supports budget gaming performance in this price range.
The deal price is unusually low for a 16-inch OLED laptop with a dedicated GPU.
Cooling stays relatively quiet during use, which helps maintain comfortable performance.
The laptop uses soldered, non-replaceable RAM, which limits future upgrades for gaming.
Battery life can be frustrating on battery, with reports around three hours initially.
The system lacks a MUX switch, and disabling the GPU requires BIOS changes that can affect the HDMI port.
Power management behavior may be unclear, and some models reportedly require an additional power supply to avoid charging issues.
