Pros and Cons

Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 5i

Strengths

It's a great value for you consumers out there who want a two-in-one who want some nice versatile features like that Bluetooth keyboard.
I really like this device. I think it's more than fast enough for your average person. I think it's great for a lot of office work out there and I think it even has enough power to do a little more intense stuff.
The performance at least with the I3 model is very good for your money and if you compare it out there even with the 11th gen I5 model this will outperform it or it will go neck and neck with that service for a weight that has an i5 11 Shin processor.
This does not have a deal breaker. The Surface Pro lineup is great but this goes neck and neck. I think it does very very well.
It's terrific for students who just need to do a lot of office work, it has plenty of storage for stuff like that and you could always plug in an external SSD if you need a little bit of extra storage
The 2.5K display is terrific!
This will outperform the 11th gen I5 model service

Weaknesses

Graphics capabilities aren't terrific on it.
Storage is a little bit limiting if you do get the 128 gigabyte model.
I think the webcam is not very good
It doesn't have a fingerprint sensor and the webcam and face unlock it are nothing to ride home about
The SSD is not super easy to take out, so that's one thing that's a little difficult
It could use a 120Hz screen.

Huawei MateBook X Pro 2023

Strengths

The laptop is a premium-looking and feeling device with a sleek design.
It's ideal for office workers, students, or anyone who needs to write papers, edit PDFs, and send emails.
The keyboard has 1.5mm key travel, which is more than most other laptops, making it perfect for fast typists like me.
The laptop comes with a 3K panel display that provides vibrant colors and a great viewing experience.
It's lightweight and portable, making it easy to carry around.

Weaknesses

The laptop is not suitable for heavy video editing or photo editing tasks due to the lack of a discrete GPU.
It's quite expensive, with a price tag of close to $2000 in some regions.
There's no SD card slot or HDMI port on this device, which may be a letdown for photographers and videographers.
The laptop can't charge via the USB-C ports on the right side, which is a minor inconvenience.
The GPU is lacking compared to other laptops in its price range, making it unsuitable for heavy gaming.
