[Specs, Info, and Prices] Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5i (16″, 2023) – Vivobooks better watch out
Lenovo is done messing around, as their latest IdeaPad 5 devices look to be well-equipped not only to square off against many of the mid-range segment devices that are out there but to dominate the market. Today we’ve got the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5i, a 16-inch machine with a wide selection of processors that goes as far as to offer the Raptor Lake H-series as well as the more increasingly popular 16:10 displays.
Today we’re giving you a quick overview of the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5i (16″, 2023).
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5i (16″, 2023) is available now with a starting price of $929.99.
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5i (16″, 2023): Full Specs
Design
The laptop comes with two variants for the build materials. You can get a fully aluminum laptop, as well as a version with only a metal lid and a plastic base. The all-metal setup should provide better durability, while also being thinner. Both laptops weigh 1.89 kg, which is decent, considering the form factor and the hardware that’s inside. There are also three colors to choose from, Abyss Blue, Cloud Grey, and Violet.
Dimensions | |

All-metal model | 356 x 251 x 16.9 mm (14.02 x 9.88 x 0.67 inches) |
Plastic base model | 356 x 251 x 17.9 mm (14.02 x 9.88 x 0.70 inches) |
The port selection of the IdeaPad Slim 5i offers two USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) ports, two USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 1) ports, an HDMI 1.4b port, a MicroSD card slot, and a 3.5 mm audio jack.
Display
The display selection of the IdeaPad includes a base model Full HD+ IPS panel, which also comes with optional touchscreen support. The two are very similar, with 300 nits of brightness, but only around 50% sRGB coverage. From here, you can upgrade to a 2.5K QHD+ IPS display with a 350-nit peak brightness and 100% sRGB coverage. It comes with Dolby Vision support, which means better colors and contrast for Creators.
Specifications and features
The base model of the laptop includes a P-series CPU, with either a Core i5-1340P or a Core i7-1360P. If you want even more performance you can switch to an H-series chip, starting with a Core i5-13420H and going as high as the Core i7-13700H, which has 14 cores and 20 threads, so you get plenty of power for heavy work. Since there’s no discrete GPU, the CPUs should be easier to cool even with a simpler solution. However, we still hope to see at least two heat pipes and one or two fans, as the chip has enormous potential to do really well. The integrated graphics come with encoding support so you can do plenty of rendering and 3d modeling.
