Here comes another gaming laptop built around integrated graphics.

Lenovo’s 15-inch Legion 7A is its first with an AMD Strix Halo APU. The 7A will charge via 180W USB-C and be configurable with a gaming-focused Ryzen AI Max Plus 392.

It launches in July from $2,299, competing with Asus’ upcoming TUF Gaming A14. Remember, integrated graphics are good now.

<em>The display will be a 15.3-inch OLED with 2560 x 1600 resolution and 165Hz variable refresh rate, rated for 500 nits of brightness.</em>
<em>On the right are one USB4, one USB-A 3.2, an SD card slot, and a webcam kill switch.</em>
<em>On the left are one USB4, one USB-C 3.2, one USB-A 3.2, a 3.5mm audio jack, and HDMI 2.1.</em>
<em>The Legion 7A will be configurable with up to 2TB of storage and 64GB of RAM.</em>

This $299 mechanical keyboard has a giant glowing knob.

The Yoga Creative Keyboard Angry Miao Edition is Lenovo’s latest collaboration with Angry Miao. Based on the Dry Studio ATM 98, it features silent switches, a translucent top, and an oversize RGB-illuminated volume knob that’s customizable to control creative apps. Lenovo’s model adds a USB-C hub and a key for audio controls on select Yoga devices.

<em>The top half of the case is see-through plastic, allowing the per-key RGB lighting to shine. The bottom half is aluminum, and the whole keyboard weighs a hefty 5.73 pounds / 2.6kg.</em>
<em>The ring-shaped knob controls volume by default, but Lenovo indicates it can be used for functions like controlling playheads in video or audio editing apps.</em>
<em>There’s more RGB lighting within the knob itself. Because of course.</em>
<em>The 1800 layout offers a number pad in a slightly smaller package than full-size keyboards.</em>
<em>Two USB-C data ports allow the keyboard to act like a mini hub. The scare quotes make this “hub” look a bit sarcastic, but it sounds genuinely useful.</em>
<em>Lenovo didn’t specify what switches are in its new keyboard, but they look just like the <a href="https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/products/bsun-light-sakura-silent-37g-linear-pcb-mount-switch" target="_blank">Bsun Light Sakura silent linear switches</a> in the <a href="https://store.dry---studio.com/products/atm-98?srsltid=AfmBOoq4ZewMR_9zElyqjbaIXENnn9ZenHg6AIuRD5CGpVTIes7as8y7&variant=53076946944273#:~:text=Bsun%20Light%20Sakura%20Switch%3A%20Smooth%20and%20Silent" target="_blank">ATM 98</a>.</em>

We finally saw the Robot Phone move.

Honor’s gimbal-equipped smartphone is here at MWC, and unlike at CES, it’s actually turned on. I got to see the phone unfold, look around, and dance to Imagine Dragons, and Honor has promised me I should see a few new demos on its booth tomorrow.

Hands-on with the Magic V6.

Honor’s new foldable is the thinnest one yet (though only just), but packs a bigger battery than any before. Here are a few of my first impressions from playing around with the upcoming phone.

Honor’s thinnest tablet doesn’t come cheap.

The MagicPad 4 is thinner than any other iPad or Android tablet, but with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 and 165Hz OLED display it probably shouldn’t be a surprise that it’s not exactly bargain-basement tech. It costs £599.99 / €699.99 (around $820) with 12GB of RAM and 256GB storage, though launch offers will save you £100 / €100.

The Robot Lanyard.

Honor’s press pass for its MWC press conference is a cute tease for the planned reveal of more details on the Robot Phone. Less cute? The pre-recorded applause being piped through the auditorium at regular intervals.
