thanks to mass drop for sponsoring this video here at ces 2018 check out the jbl
lsr30x powered speakers available now for a hundred bucks below launch price
at the link below this is the lenovo ideapad 720s now normally when i walk
into a booth and i go oh it's a thin and light i go well
that one is definitely running Intel but
for the first time
ever i'm looking at an all AMD solution
and something that i would legitimately call
a thin and light notebook so it's got
pretty much everything you would expect you got a couple of usbc's a usb 3 type
a more usb 3 type a and something i don't necessarily expect anymore it's
got a headphone jack it's got a 1080p display it's matte it appears to be ips
but not like the world's most exceptional ips or anything like that
it's got actually pretty decent feeling keyboard trackpad and
ryzen 7 inside so it's actually running a quad
core eight thread processor and not only that
but it's running vega graphics too so what's in here is a vega 10. now that's
not to say that the quad core ryzen 7
with vega 10 in here is going to necessarily outperform the quad core
ryzen 5 with vega 8 graphics over here
because AMD is making these cpus highly
configurable so this one is set to around 15 watts which means that while
you will enjoy a 2.2 gigahertz base you might not be able to reach the 3.8
gigahertz boost all the time and unfortunately at this time we can't tell
you anything about how the vega graphics are going to perform because we were not
allowed to install games on it what we do know though is that AMD is saying
that we can expect performance up to twice Intel integrated graphics it's
funny the lighting turned blue right as i said that for the rest of the specs
this guy's running eight gigs of 2400 megahertz ddr4 and it's got a 256 gig
SSD and i believe it is actually going on sale in some
parts of the world either right now or very very shortly so
man if i am AMD and their partners i am
super stoked to have a solution that can legitimately compete in this space
because for basically forever the ultrabook has been
so dominated by Intel that they even got to invent the name for the category
which i can't call this an ultrabook because it's not because that's like tm
it's just really thin and light so back to mouse drop then the lsr 30x
speakers are designed to deliver strong bass smooth highs and evenness
throughout the frequency response with some pretty cool features so you can use
the low and high frequency trim switches to fine tune the amount of bass and
treble to compensate for the room you're in and they feature xlr and trs inputs
so you can connect your speakers to many different sources you can check them out
at the link to mass drop in the video description so thanks for watching guys
