Not long ago, we compared the 2024 ThinkBook 14+ and Xiaoxin Pro14, and the conclusion is that the former has a more obvious competitive advantage. So,If this battle spreads to the 16-inch market,XiaoxinPro16Can it turn the tables against the wind?
Again, the answer is...... No.
And relative to the 14-inch brotherhood, ThinkBook 16+ can show a crushing trend against Xiaoxin Pro16 in almost all aspects.
The reason why it's almost,It's because XiaoxinPro16The whole system is standard1080P anti-peeping camera,Infrared camera and ToF,So they all have intelligent perception functions,For example, people walk on the lock screen,People come to unlock and so on。
The ThinkBook 16+, on the other hand, is only 6999 yuan for such a model with ToF.
Other than that, it's time for the ThinkBook 16+ to perform one-sidedly.
Both machines have 16-inch screens with all-metal bodies, and the ThinkBook 16+ body is slightly thinner, and it also supports a 180-degree screen opening and closing angle.
In terms of interfaces, XiaoxinPro16The advantage is that the full-featured USB-C supports 20Gbps transfer speed.
The feature of the ThinkBook 16+ is that it has more 3A2C, and it also gives 1 Oculink interface directly connected to the CPU, which can reduce energy consumption when connected to an external graphics card docking station, and the new Thunderbolt 4 of the Core Ultra platform has been backward compatible with the 20Gbps transmission protocol.
In terms of screen, the display quality of both products is similar, both are 2.5K resolution, 100% sRGB high color gamut, and 120Hz refresh rate. It's just that the official didn't give the brightness and color accuracy parameters of the ThinkBook 16+, which should theoretically be the same as Xiaoxin.
In terms of configuration,XiaoxinPro16The first 2 sub-models,Both are equipped with Core Ultra 5 125H processor,Power consumption release65W,Built-in2242and2280Two hard disk bays,Standard SSD2242,Save 1 standard 2280 for easy user upgrades。 The 16GB+1TB version is priced at 5799 yuan, and the 32GB+1TB version is priced at 6199 yuan. Considering that the memory of this product cannot be upgraded on board, it is recommended to choose the large memory version in one step.
Subsequently, Xiaoxin Pro16 will also launch an upgraded Core Ultra 7 155H processor, as well as an RTX 4050 discrete graphics version, but the specific time and price are unknown.
ThinkBook 16+ debuts 6 sub-models, including the core display version 4 two, priced at 5299 yuan ~ 6999 yuan. There are 2 independent display versions, priced at 7499 yuan and 8999 yuan respectively.
Compared with Xiaoxin Pro16, ThinkBook 16+ also has better expansion capabilities, it has 2 built-in memory slots, 2 2280 hard disk bays. Although the upgradable DDR5-5600 memory is not as good as the higher-frequency onboard LPDDR5X-7467 in terms of unlocking GPU performance, the ability to upgrade at any time according to the price fluctuations of the memory module is more than enough to make up for this small regret.
Relatively speaking, I personally recommend the Ultra 7 + 16GB + 512GB version in the ThinkBook 16+, which is 5799 yuan during the first launch. Ultra 5 + 32GB + 1TB version, 5999 yuan, they can all be regarded as the replacement of XiaoxinPro16.
In addition,ThinkBook 16+The top configuration in the first model is also worth our attention,Ultra 5+ 32GB + 1TB + RTX 4060 independent display,8999element,Its double baking power consumption release is as high as 130W,Not inferior to entry-level gaming laptops,Superimposed as light as1.95kgThe body and super expansion connection ability,To some extent, it also has the ability to connect ThinkBook 16p、 The strength of higher-level competitors such as the Rescuer 9000X, Phantom 16 and Jedi 16 has been pulled down.
It's still the same sentence, the 2024 ThinkBook + series is really fragrant, but this fragrance can only last until the first launch period, and the price of each configuration will increase by 500 yuan or even higher, and their cost-effective advantages and purchase value will be greatly discounted at that time, so students who like it should hurry up.
