For the starting version. Each part is measured the same way for every laptop (processor and graphics from benchmark results) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Very quick processor for a cheap convertible
  • Plenty of USB-A and USB-C ports plus microSD
  • Decent battery life
  • Flexible 360-degree design
  • Strong speed for the money
  • Handles light games better than expected
  • Lots of speed for a low price, even light gaming

Cons

  • Screen is dim, 60 Hz and covers little of sRGB
  • Fans get loud; weak speakers
  • Short 2242 SSD only, no USB4
  • Plastic feel and a little heavy
  • Dull, about 288-nit screen
  • Below-par battery result (6 h 26 min)
  • Fan runs nearly all the time
  • NotebookcheckNov 2024

    Tested 14AHP9 with Ryzen 7 8845HS: about the quickest 14-inch convertible for the money, held back by a dim, washed-out screen, noisy fans and a plain plastic body.

  • Laptop MagAug 2024

    Tested Ryzen 7 8845HS, 16 GB/1 TB: fast and surprisingly good at light gaming for the price, but the screen is dull and battery life fell short of 7 hours in their test.

  • ThurrottSep 2024

    Tested Ryzen 7 8845HS, 16 GB/1 TB: highly recommended as a value buy; the cheaper-feeling build and inputs are fair trade-offs at the price.

  • CNETOct 2024

    Tested Ryzen 7 8845HS (from Notebookcheck's summary; page not opened): fine for everyday work with long battery life, but only middling multi-core speed and screen, and awkward and heavy as a tablet.
