Pros and Cons

Lenovo Yoga 7i

Strengths

You can get a big display, plenty of ports, capable and efficient Intel chip, very good battery life, affordable price, and extremely versatile two in one
The battery life has been excellent so far and I've been using this laptop in balanced mode
The keyboard is nice and big with backlit keys, having two levels of brightness and all you need to do is hold the function button and then tap the space bar to cycle through the options
The track pad is nice and vague, it's been responsive and accurate for two finger scrolling or when I pinched a zoom
The camera is 1080p with a really nice touch of the privacy shutter so you can physically block the lens
You can get up to 16 gigabytes of DDR5 RAM which is plenty for what I need

Weaknesses

It's not intended to be a dedicated gaming laptop, it has integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics
The hinges are solid but might make it difficult to adjust the display in some modes
There's a trade-off between brightness and battery life with the 2.5K version which is one of the main reasons I chose the full HD Plus model
You can't upgrade the RAM, it's running in dual channel mode
The camera quality is only 1080p which might not be sufficient for some users
You need to get used to the offset track pad on the Palm Rest Assembly due to the number pad on the right

Huawei MateBook 16

Strengths

Huawei MateBook 16 has a nice weight and chunk to it, giving you optimism that there's more to this than just looking nice.
The performance is great, with the all-new custom AMD Ryzen 7 5800H seven nanometer chipset, making it possible for long gaming sessions and moderate to advanced 4k multi-layered video editing.
You can have multiple browser tabs open at once, which always gets missed on laptop reviews.
Windows 11 runs smoothly out of the box, with a whole host of juicy upgrades, including a revamped start menu, search icon, and recommended feature.
The new AMD Ryzen 7 5800H chipset is significantly more powerful than Ryzen 5s and Ryzen 3's.
Huawei MateBook 16 has a wide enough screen to fit the same size content as movies, with black bars at the top and bottom when not watching videos.
Multiple browser tabs can be open simultaneously
The new AMD Ryzen 7 5800H chipset is a beast, making it possible for long gaming sessions and some moderate to advanced video editing tasks.
