The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 7i Pro and XPG Xenia 14 are similarly priced with comparable performance, suitable for general use. The IdeaPad has a higher resolution touch screen, making it better for tasks that benefit from a crisper display, but it weighs more than the Xenia, which might be more convenient for carrying around. The Xenia has a longer battery life for extended use without charging and is lighter, enhancing its portability. However, the IdeaPad offers a slightly better overall build and general use experience. If portability and battery are priorities, choose the Xenia; for a better screen and sturdy build, go with the IdeaPad. Give Feedback

Allen Ngo | October 2021
"The main selling point of the IdeaPad Slim 7i Pro versus a regular IdeaPad Slim 7 is its faster Core H-series CPU. In reality, the Core i7-11370H is only marginally faster than the U-series Core i7-1165G7 to the point where most users are not likely to notice the benefits. The slight performance uptick comes at the cost of slightly higher power consumption as well meaning owners will have to deal with potentially warmer temperatures or louder fans to compensate. Unless if you happen to be a power user, then the regular non-Pro model will be more than enough. Once you go 90 Hz, you can't go back."

"The Xenia 14 is a top 14-inch laptop under 1 kg. ADATA isn't exactly known for its laptops and so we weren't expecting much from its first 14-inch Ultrabook. With that said, we're pleasantly surprised by how well the Xenia 14 looks and performs. Not only is it incredibly light, but it has a color accurate 16:10 display, high CPU and GPU performance, easy RAM and SSD serviceability, plenty of port options including Thunderbolt 4, and long battery life. It packs a lot of punch and features considering the size and weight to be better than even the LG Gram series."
