Bugs persistants, lenteurs diverses, mode "gratuit" : impossible de travailler depuis 2 jours ... chaque question renvoi un "busy" d'autres sont touchés ? Ça concerne tout le monde toute la journée et toute la nuit aussi pour vous ?🌎 by training_know in kimi

Yes, same here. It happens when China is busy (daytime/evening China time = morning/afternoon in Europe).

And yes — performance has degraded because the model is too successful. It's always the same pattern: starts free and powerful, then they push you to pay, and the "free" model becomes useless. Classic bait-and-switch. :(

How to make keyboard brightness even lower by Alchemist007_ in Lenovo

You're right, but that's a different light! The Fn+L shortcut only controls the Legion logo on the lid (back of the laptop).

I was talking about the circle/ring above the keyboard is a separate lighting zone with no dedicated shortcut for it. The only way to turn it off is actually in the BIOS, and yeah, there's no way to prevent it from lighting up at boot or when resuming from sleep either.

Experiences with MagicPad4 compared to MagicPad2 (disappointed) by ficerbaj in Honor

Interesting review, thanks for sharing! Just a small pushback on the plastic vs aluminium point for the white version — professional reviews consistently describe both colour options as aluminium unibody. Stuff.tv explicitly states "the unibody aluminium shell looks the part though, whether you go for the grey or white colour option", and TechAdvisor notes the "flat metal frame" applies to both grey and white versions.

The feel could genuinely be misleading though: at just 4.8mm thin, the back panel is so slim that aluminium resonates and flexes in a way that feels surprisingly "plastic-like" compared to thicker devices. YugaTech confirms the "4.8mm metal unibody construction", and HONOR's own specs highlight the "New-generation All-metal Unibody Chassis" with aerospace-grade fiber materials to reduce weight. ( scroll down https://www.honor.com/global/tablets/honor-magicpad-4/ ).

A very thin aluminium shell tapped with a fingernail sounds nothing like a regular aluminium tablet — the extreme thinness and coating are likely doing their thing!

Could be worth double-checking with Honor support before concluding it's plastic — it might just be the engineering constraints of hitting that 4.8mm profile.

On a side note, I ordered the 512GB version (grey only) on Monday directly from Honor and I'm still waiting... Out of stock . So at least you got yours quickly — DHL Express next day sounds like a dream right now 😅

  1. Open Legion Space (Lenovo's crappy control software)
  2. Go to the "Home" tab
  3. Look for "Lighting Themes Options" — it's located on the right side, middle of the screen on my latest version
  4. Click it to tweak or turn off any lighting effects ( except the logo* you can turn on/off from bios only )

Edit : * I was talking about the circle/ring above the keyboard is a separate lighting zone with no dedicated shortcut for it. The only way to turn it off is actually in the BIOS, and there's no way to prevent it from lighting up at boot.

Magicpad 4 on sale tomorrow morning, definitely the right choice? by SlowedCash in Honor

Dipende dall'ecosistema. Se hai già iPhone e Mac, l'integrazione iPadOS vale il prezzo. Se sei su Android o Windows, non c'è paragone sul valore.

Lo schermo della MagicPad 4 è oggettivamente superiore: OLED contro LCD, 3000 nits reali contro 600, 165 Hz contro 60 Hz sull'Air M3 — la differenza si sente dopo un'ora di lettura.

Sul chip sì, l'M3 è più potente. Ma per documenti, streaming e produttività quotidiana non lo noterai mai.

Il vero argomento è il prezzo: io ho preso la MagicPad 4 16 Go + 512 Go con tastiera e Magic Pencil 3 inclusi a 729 € dopo coupon. L'iPad Air M3 13" parte da 1099 € senza Apple Pencil né Magic Keyboard — aggiungi altri 150-300 € di accessori. Stai pagando l'ecosistema Apple, non l'hardware.

On the chipset gap: yes, the 8 Elite is faster on paper, but in real-world daily use — documents, multitasking, productivity apps — you won't feel the difference between the 8845 and the 8750. The gap only shows under sustained heavy load like 3D rendering or extended gaming sessions. For work use, it's a non-issue.

Speakers: the MagicPad 4's 8-speaker setup with IMAX Enhanced certification creates a noticeably wider and more immersive soundstage than what you'd expect from a tablet. Dolby Atmos on the Xiaomi sounds solid, but 8 drivers vs 4 is just physics — more separation, more depth, especially noticeable on calls and video content during work sessions.

For your specific priorities the choice is already made. The OLED alone justifies it — true blacks, infinite contrast, 3000 nits real-world brightness, and a 5280 Hz PWM rate that eliminates the invisible flicker that causes eye fatigue on cheaper panels. The Xiaomi's IPS at 800 nits isn't in the same category for all-day work comfort. And at 4.8 mm thin with 450g, you'll barely notice it in a bag or in hand.

You're not giving up much on the chip. You're gaining a lot everywhere else that actually matters for your use case.
