Remember when anything with an OLED display would command a massive premium? That's not been the case for quite some time and if you need proof of that, Lenovo is serving up a massive discount on a well-configured 16-inch laptop with Ryzen firepower. The only caveat is that you have to be privy to the coupon code that delivers the huge savings, and it's not the one listed by default on the product page.
Score Lenovo's 16-Inch IdeaPad Pro 5 Laptop With OLED Display For $749.99 (Over Half Off)
The laptop in question is
Lenovo's IdeaPad Pro 5 and it can be yours for
$749.99 at Lenovo (51% off, save $800). Granted, the estimated value is inflated as nobody should be paying $1,549.99 for this system, but $749.99 is a great price. It's also cheaper than the discounted $949.99 rate Lenovo is promoting on the product page with coupon code PRO5DEAL.
Forget that noise because when you get to checkout, swapping Lenovo's default coupon for promo code LENOVOLOVE2 brings the discount to $800 off. Note that you may have to manually remove the PRO5DEAL coupon at checkout before the LENOVOLOVE2 discount will be applied, but we can verify that it does indeed work.
One of the highlights of this laptop is its 16-inch OLED panel. It features a 2.8K (2880x1800) resolution with a 16:10 aspect ratio, 120Hz refresh rate, 1,100 nits of peak brightness (and 500 nits typical), 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, X-Rite color calibration, and HDR support with VESA's DisplayHDR True Black 1000 certification. In short, this is a premium panel.
It's powered by an AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 Krackan Point processor with three Zen 5 cores clocked at 2GHz to 4.8GHz and three Zen 5c cores clocked at 2GHz to 3.4GHz (for 16 total cores), 12 threads, 16MB (L3) + 6MB (L2) cache, Radeon 840M graphics clocked at up to 2.9GHz, and a dedicated NPU capable of 50 TOPS (up to 59 TOPS for the chip as a whole).
You also get discrete graphics with this laptop, and specifically NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5050 mobile GPU with 8GB of GDDR7. This is flanked by 16GB of LPDDR5-8000 RAM and a 512GB PCIe 4.0 solid state drive (SSD).
Other amenities include Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 wireless connectivity (check out these
Netgear Orbi Wi-Fi 7 mesh router deals), dual 2W speakers with Dolby Atmos support, a 1080p webcam, two USB4 (40Gbps) ports, two USB-A (5Gbps) ports, a 3.5mm headphone/microphone combo jack, an HDMI 2.1 output, an SD card reader, and a backlit keyboard.
