The ThinkBook 14+ unveiled at CES 2022 has been pre-sold on March 18, and the biggest advantage this time is the upgrade to a 12th-generation Core standard voltage processor.
My evaluation of the previous generation OfKingBook 14 is a cost-effective killer with excellent workmanship, this ThinkBook 14+ is not only equipped with 12th generation Core processors, but also has a higher screen quality.
Compared with the two generations of the same level of products, the overall speed of the 12th generation i7 standard voltage processor will be about 33% higher than that of the i7-1195G7.
In terms of graphics cards, the RTX 2050 equipped with the unique graphics version is equipped with the new generation of ITS 5.0 heat dissipation, and the GPU + CPU dual-baked TGP release can reach 60W. Whether it's high-load work such as graphics creation, video editing, or AV entertainment experiences, it's easy.
The TimeSpy score was 1.3 times that of the GTX 1650 model and 1.7 times that of the MX 450 model.
3DMark FireStrike score test, RTX 2050 is a significant lead over MX450, RTX 2050 graphics card 4K performance and gaming performance can meet the mainstream application software in the market.
In other aspects, the memory is upgraded to DDR5, and the single strip is still 16G. The hard drive was upgraded to PCIe 4.0, and the full line came standard with 512 GB and a reserved empty hard drive slot, and the battery capacity increased slightly. It is worth mentioning that the video interface supports the HDMI 2.1 TMDS protocol.
The shell is designed by the trend contrast brought by 2 different sandblasting processes, and the business style and personality attitude are cleverly integrated. In other aspects, the all-metal body, 180-degree opening and closing design, thickness of 15.9mm, weight of 1.43KG, and the previous generation is basically the same.
The glass trackpad with multi-finger touch support has increased the area by 22%, and the backlit keyboard supports three brightness adjustments. The power button still integrates a fingerprint sensor, supports windows Hello camera with 1080P resolution, whether it is a video conference or an online class is VERY OK. The addition of ThinkShutter physical camera switches effectively enhances privacy protection
Dolby Atmos sound cabinets and voiceprint recognition technologies all help improve the user experience.
The interface aspects are as follows:
With rich interfaces, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI, RJ45, Micro SD card readers are readily available, and support PD fast charging. There's also a hidden USB 2.0 port on the right.
The ThinkBook 14+ offers three performance modes that enable the free switching from high-load professional creation to low-load casual entertainment through the Fn+Q key combination.
Finally, ThinkBook14+ Gen4, as a new generation of notebooks focusing on cutting-edge in the workplace, can not only meet diversified business scenarios, but also provide a lasting and stable guarantee for professional creation.
In the context of working from home, "workers" who touch the fish while working can use Alt+Tab to quickly switch games or tables, and the flexible body shape and surging performance are organically combined, and they can also be at ease and fully release the creativity of the workplace.
