The parameters of the Redmi G Pro 2022 Ryzen Edition are as follows:

Regarding configuration, the Redmi G Pro 2022 Ryzen Edition is the savior R9000P 2022 of the 240Hz high-brush version. Still, the starting price is only 7499 yuan, and the price/performance ratio is very brutal!

Design & Display

The A-side of the metal material is matt treated, and it feels delicate and looks high-end. The notebook measurements are 360 ​​x 261 x 28mm, and the net weight is 2.6kg. This is the same screen of Y9000P, 16 inches, with a resolution of 2560*1600, a maximum brightness of 500nit, and a refresh rate of 240Hz.

This screen has also passed the VESA HDR 400 certification, supports 1.07 billion color displays, has a 100% sRGB color gamut, and has a color standard of Delta E < 1.2, which meets the standards of professional monitors.

The full-size three-level backlit keyboard has a comfortable key journey of 1.5mm. In addition, the full-size arrow keys and numeric keypad are also highlights. On the left side of the fuselage are cooling air outlets, a USB 2.0 interface, and a 3.5mm headset interface. There is a USB 3.2 Gen2 interface and an SD card reader on the laptop’s right side. The top interface is rich, with a 2.5Gbps network port, 2 USB 3.2 Gen2 ports, 1 HDMI port, 1 Mini DP port, a full-featured Type-C port, and a circular charging port.

The half of the D surface is a large-area heat dissipation grid. I used a 330W power adapter. Compared with the Redmi G gaming notebook, the biggest changes are heat dissipation and battery. First of all, the battery is increased from 55Wh to 80Wh. The new Hurricane cooling system uses 1 10mm, 2 8m,m and 1 5mm heat pipes. This should be the first time Redmi has used a 10mm super-large heat pipe.

Performance Test

1. Screen test

The Redmi G Pro gaming notebook 2022 Ryzen Edition uses a 16-inch IPS screen with a resolution of 2560×1600 and a refresh rate of 240Hz. We use Red Spider X to test the screen’s color gamut and brightness contrast.

99% of the sRGB color gamut, 72% of the Adobe RGB color gamut, 73% of the P3 color gamut, and 67% of the NTSC color gamut.

The measured maximum brightness of this screen is 470nit, which is very close to the official 500nit data. The static contrast ratio is 1160:1.

The Redmi G gaming notebook 2022 Ryzen Edition should have undergone color correction before leaving the factory. The measured average Delta-E value is 1.04, the highest is 3.36, and the lowest is 0.36. It is rare to achieve this level of color accuracy as a game, so it can also do video and graphic design-related work.

Disk performance test

AS SSD Benchmark measured 4207 points, the highest sequential read 3005MB/s, sequential write 2249MB/s, 4K random read 69MB/s, random write 201MB/s.

CrystalDiskMark measured the highest sequential read, 3449MB/s, and sequential write, 3154MB/s.

3. Memory performance test

The 2022 Ruilong version of the Redmi G Pro gaming notebook has a built-in dual-channel Samsung DDR5 4800MHz 16GB memory timing of 40-39-39-116 CR1, and the memory mode is Gear 2.

Using AIDA64 for the memory cache test, the measured read, write, and copy bandwidths are 50153MB/s, 55075MB/s, and 48582MB/s, respectively, and the latency is 88.5ns.

Battery

1. CPU roaster

The instantaneous power consumption of CPU single baking can reach 83W, stabilizing at 80W after 20 minutes of testing, and the performance release is very stable. When the oven is baked, the processor’s full-core frequency is regular at 4.25GHz, and the temperature is only 92 degrees.

2. GPU roaster

Single roasting GPU, roasting machine for 40 minutes, RTX 3060 temperature is stable at 78 degrees, frequency is 1372MHz, and power consumption of the roasting device is regular at 130W.

3. Double roast

The double-baking was carried out for 1 hour, and the power consumption of the Ryzen 7 6800H was stable at 45W, and the temperature was 85 degrees. The power consumption of the RTX 3060 jumps between 125~135W, and the temperature is 82 degrees.

4. Endurance test

The Redmi G Pro gaming notebook 2022 has a built-in lithium battery with a capacity of 80Wh. We used PCMark 10 to test the battery life of the notebook.

The scene selected for the test is the modern office of PCMark 10; the power mode is “energy saving mode,” all other processes are closed during the test, and the screen brightness is adjusted to 50%.

The endurance test score in the PCMark 10 modern office scene reached 7 hours and 46 minutes, which is acceptable for a gaming notebook.

Verdict

Although the appearance looks no different, the Redmi G Pro 2022 Ryzen Edition has undergone considerable changes compared with the Redmi G gaming notebook 2022.

The following is a summary of the test:

The Redmi G gaming notebook 2022 single-bake CPU is 65W, but the temperature is as high as 98 degrees; in contrast, the Redmi G Pro gaming notebook 2022 Ryzen version single-bake CPU power consumption is as high as 80W, but the temperature is still 6 degrees lower.

The gap between GPU baking machines is even more obvious. The power consumption of the RTX 3050 Ti on the Redmi G gaming notebook 2022 reaches 86 degrees with only 95W; however, the power consumption of the RTX 3060 grilling machine on the Redmi G Pro gaming notebook 2022 Ryzen Edition is 130W. The temperature is only 86 degrees.

As for double baking, the Redmi G gaming laptop 2022 has a full performance release of 125W, while the Redmi G Pro gaming laptop 2022 Ryzen Edition has a performance release of 175W, and its oven temperature is lower regardless of GPU or CPU.

2. The performance of Ryzen 7 6800H

The Redmi G Pro 2022 Ryzen Edition increases the power consumption of the Ryzen 7 6800H to 80W. Compared with the 80W Ryzen 9 6900HS on the ROG Magic 14 2022, the single-core performance is different due to the frequency difference. The multi-core version of the Ryzen 7 6800H is slightly stronger than the Ryzen 9 6900HS.

From this point, it also proves that there is no problem with the performance release of the Redmi G Pro Gaming Laptop 2022 Ryzen Edition.

3. RTX 3060 game performance

We tested nearly 10 games, and the Redmi G Pro 2022 Ryzen Edition can run a frame rate of more than 80FPS, and hardware killers like “Forza Motorsport: Horizon 5” and “Cyberpunk 2077” also do not accept.

Although there is only one more Pro in the name, in terms of hardware configuration, performance release, or temperature performance, the improvement of the 2022 Ryzen Edition of the Redmi G Pro gaming notebook is a conscience.

This notebook targets the Lenovo Savior R9000P 2022, the same Ryzen 7 6800H processor, RTX 3060 discrete graphics card, and the Redmi G Pro gaming notebook 2022 Ryzen Edition also has a better screen.

16-inch IPS display, 2.5K resolution, 100% sRGB color gamut, and 500nit brightness are the same for both notebooks. Still, the Redmi G Pro gaming notebook 2022 Ryzen Edition has increased the refresh rate to 240Hz, while the R900P 2022 is still 165Hz.

The last is the Lenovo Savior R9000P 2022 (Ryzen 7 6800H + RTX 3060) is priced at 9499 yuan. The starting price of the 2022 Ruilong version of the Redmi G Pro gaming notebook with a better screen is only 7499 yuan, which is cheaper than the R7000P one grade lower, which is a bit incredible.
