CoolingFans stay calm in light use; CPU runs past 95 C under heavy load (about 100 C in Notebookcheck's stress test, 105 C after an hour of gaming in Digit's test) while games keep CPU/GPU in the low 80s C; the Overdrive fan mode is louder for little extra speed (Notebookcheck)

What reviewers say
Pros
  • RTX 5070 Ti option is much quicker and more efficient
  • Rare matte OLED with HDR and G-Sync
  • Upgradable RAM and two SSD slots
  • A bit cooler while gaming and longer on battery than 2025
Cons
  • OLED is dimmer than the IPS screen in normal use
  • New CPU only marginally faster
  • CPU tops 95 C under load
  • Still heavy for a 16-inch
