Lenovo V15 G7 Q7X laptop, Digi Mart USA News (Japan): Lenovo has released one of its cheaper ARM-powered laptops, the V15 G7 Q7X, which the company had referenced in support documents about two months earlier. The model was later added to Lenovo’s PSREF website and is one of several Lenovo laptops built around Qualcomm’s Snapdragon C C11-0100 chipset.
At present, the laptop is available for sale in Japan. Lenovo lists it as coming soon across Europe, Southeast Asia and other parts of East Asia.
It is not yet showing in Canada or the US, although PSREF indicates it is planned for release in both countries.
According to Lenovo Japan, the V15 G7 Q7X costs more than its Intel counterpart, the V15 G7 IWC. It is still priced below Lenovo’s other Snapdragon-powered laptops, including the IdeaPad Slim 5x, which launched earlier this year and was listed at $899 on Amazon at the time of the report.
The Japanese configuration starts at JPY 134,970 (about $845) with 16 GB of RAM, a 512 GB SSD and a Windows 11 Home licence. Higher-priced versions with Windows 11 Pro and/or Office Home & Business 2024 licences are offered up to JPY 184,800 (about $1,157).
All configurations use the same 1200p, 400-nit, 60 Hz IPS display with 45% NTSC colour space coverage, along with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 6.0.
Lenovo always installs a 50 Wh battery that supports 65 W charging. The report says the Snapdragon C C11-0100 delivers up to 22 hours of battery life when playing 1080p locally stored videos at 150 nits, and 20 hours in the JEITA-BAT 3.0 video playback test at 200 nits.
These battery figures are as reported by the source and have not been independently verified. Further details are available on Lenovo’s website.
