Today, the three thin and light models we horizontally tested are the latest HP Pavilion 14, Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14, and Dailing Yueran 7000 II 14. In terms of configuration, all three notebooks are equipped with Intel's eighth-generation Core processor i5-8250U, 8G DDR4 memory and 128G SSD+ 1TB HDD dual-disk combination. Today, we mainly make a comparative analysis through the following chapters:
Appearance article:
It is said that people are visual animals.
If you say that you don't pay attention to appearance when buying a notebook, 99% of you are lying, and you are just looking for a reasonable excuse for being poor.
What kind of notebook can stand out from many competitors? To sum up, "I am light, I am thin, and my face value is high."
Without exception, these three light and thin books all take a simple route. To put it bluntly, it is subtraction. At first glance, the style is the same, but the details of workmanship still reveal the meticulous mind of the manufacturer.
▲ HP Changyou Pavilion 14
The A-side of HP Changyou Pavilion 14 fuselage is painted with metallic paint, which brings a metallic texture, without the coldness of metallic texture, and does not block wireless signals. The X-shaped rubber foot pad at the bottom is fashionable and beautiful, which can avoid bumping at the bottom. The smooth LOGO design and the circular frame design on the A side of the fuselage complement each other, bringing a very eye-catching visual effect. In addition, it also has colorful color matching, champagne gold, quiet silver and first love powder to fully meet your demand for high value.
▲ Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14
In order to pursue texture, Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14 directly adopts aviation 5-series aluminum alloy, which has the characteristics of light weight, high tensile strength and high elongation, making it possible to have a light and thin fuselage and a solid shell. In order to improve the hand feel, the surface is treated with glass bead sandblasting texture, which greatly reduces the cold feeling.

The A and D surfaces of 7000 II 14 are also made of metal, and the sandblasting process is just right, which brings a smooth but not greasy sand feeling and provides good friction, which is easy to pick up without leaving fingerprints. The diamond cutting technology used at the edge of the fuselage is the crowning touch, and the bright edge cutting is very refreshing, which is a good plus item.
From the overall appearance, the three designs are equal, which are in line with the aesthetic taste of young people at present. Simplicity and fashion are their common characteristics. As for who looks better, there are different opinions.
Axis:
When it comes to the hinge, few people pay attention to it, because most people think it is enough to make the screen open and close smoothly. In fact, the rotating shaft is not simple, and a good design actually hides the mechanism.
▲ HP Changyou Pavilion 14
For small details of attention and innovation, HP is absolutely second to none in the industry. HP's new swimming product Pavilion 14 adopts the latest escalator shaft design and is nicknamed "Hip-Hopping Shaft". The axis of plane A is designed to bend downward. When the screen is open, the bent position can support the fuselage and make the fuselage form a certain angle with the horizontal plane. There is a special rubber pad at the bend to avoid wearing the fuselage. The beauty of this design lies in that the convex body makes the keyboard face at a certain angle, which obviously improves the input comfort. At the same time, the heat dissipation outlet is completely exposed, and the airflow directly faces the air. At the same time, it also increases the gap at the bottom, improves the air circulation and ensures the heat dissipation efficiency.

Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14 and Dell Yue Ling 7000 II 14 adopt the traditional sunken rotating shaft, which is more conventional. The maximum opening and closing angle of Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14 is 180 degrees, which brings users a better screen sharing angle.
Portable items:

In terms of portable design, three thin notebooks with discrete graphics cards all have good thickness and weight. From the above picture, it is not difficult to find that both of them are 14-inch notebooks, and HP Changyou Pavilion 14 is obviously smaller and more portable. In terms of weight, HP swimmer Pavilion 14 is the lightest, only 1.53kg (excluding the weight of mechanical hard disk), and Dell and Lenovo are 1.649kg and 1.69kg respectively, which are equally heavy.
In addition, because the Pavilion 14 of HP Changyou adopts the escalator shaft design, the machine is lighter and thinner in visual effect, which can be said to be a trick of HP in designing products, but it can make the fuselage look thinner without deliberately reducing the thickness.
Keyboard and interface:
Although they are all thin and light books, no one is willing to sacrifice the experience at the expense of thinness. Keyboard layout, keycap material, keyboard backlight, keystroke, etc. Will directly affect the user's mood.

All three notebooks use island keyboards. Pavilion 14, an HP traveler, did not affect the tapping experience of the keyboard keycap because of his great slimming. The keycap is still relatively large, and the key stroke depth of the keycap is about 1.5mm, which is very elastic and has a good knocking feeling. The surface of the keyboard also adopts metal sandblasting technology, which brings a good feel and is not easy to be contaminated with fingerprints. Keyboard backlight can be selected according to user's needs. Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 keyboard feels second, while Dell's Yueyan 7000 keycap is smaller and the keystroke is slightly longer, which still has a good sense of paragraphs and feedback. It is worth mentioning that, above the keyboard, HP Changyou Pavilion 14 also uses a front speaker, which is approved by Danish Audio B&B&; O after professional training, the sound quality is extraordinary and the sound effect is impressive.
The overall design of the three notebook keyboards is very similar, and none of the products has a special design. On the whole, the three notebook keyboards are quite satisfactory, which is in line with the current mainstream keyboard design. However, HP Changyou Pavilion 14 adopts metal integrated C-plane design, and its touchpad adopts CNC diamond cutting technology, which is not only fashionable in appearance, waterproof and dustproof, but also exquisite and wear-resistant.

In terms of interface, all three notebooks are very attentive. In addition to the conventional USB 3.0 and HDMI interfaces, we also found Type-C interfaces on the side of Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14 and HP Changyou Pavilion 14. At the same time, HP Changyou Pavilion 14 and Dell Yue Ling 7000 II 14 retain RJ45 Ethernet interfaces to meet the needs of business scenarios. Comparatively speaking, HP Changyou has the largest number of Pavilion 14 interfaces, and the overall expansibility is stronger, which can meet the needs of work and entertainment.

It is necessary to talk about the border first, because this is the same selling point of the three notebooks. Designers' exploration of notebook design has never stopped, and micro-frame is just a good medicine after this exploration. Compared with the widescreen frame, the micro-frame can not only bring a better visual experience, but also make the notebook body smaller and more portable. Although they all adopt micro-border design, the styles of the three notebooks are slightly different. The design styles of HP Changyou Pavilion 14 and Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14 are the same, and both of them adopt the design with slightly wider micro-edges on both sides.
In contrast, Dell's 7000 II 14 adopts a three-sided equidistant micro-frame design, and the notebook camera is placed at the bottom of the screen. The biggest advantage of this is that the visual effect of the screen is better than the other two notebooks. But at the same time, the disadvantage is that the face is deformed in video chat, which affects the user's experience when using the camera to some extent. Of course, which design you choose depends on your own aesthetics and whether you care more about the application of video chat or the visual experience in normal use.
In terms of frame width design, the micro-frame of HP Changyou Pavilion 14 is the thinnest, with only 5.4mm on both sides, while the two sides of Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 14 and the three sides of Dell Yue Ling 7000 II 14 are 7mm, and the frame of Dell Yue Ling 7000 II 14 is 65434 higher than that of HP Changyou Pavilion.
As far as the screen effect is concerned, there is little difference among the three notebooks. After all, they are all IPS screens with large viewing angles. The brightness of Dell's 7000 is slightly higher, the color reproduction degree is the best in HP Changyou Pavilion 14, and the visual effect of 5.4mm micro-frame is the best.
CPU article:
The products we tested were all equipped with Intel's eighth generation Core processor i5-8250U. First of all, we use CPU-Z to test the difference of CPU performance of three notebooks under high performance.

▲ Lenovo
▲ Dell
Judging from the achievements of CPU-Z single-core and multi-core, the performance of the three notebook Intel i5 eight-generation Core processors is not much different, and they are fully qualified for daily study, office and simple entertainment.
Graphic article:
The hardware sequence of three notebook graphics cards from high to low is as follows: Dailing Yueran 7000 MX 150, Hewlett-Packard Changyou Pavilion 14 GeForce 940MX 4G, Lenovo Xiaoxinchao 7000 GeForce 940MX 2G, which is the inevitable result of NVIDIA graphics card iteration, among which MX 150 is the latest product, and the running score is much higher than GeForce 940.

The actual test results can also fully prove the graphic performance of the three notebooks. On the whole, it must be that Dell's MX 150 is stronger. Of course, judging from the overall positioning of three notebooks: study, office and light entertainment, any notebook can be easily competent.
Heat dissipation items:
Finally, let's take a look at the heat dissipation performance of three thin notebooks. We use AIDA64 to test the stability of the system, commonly known as copying machine test. During the test, we loaded all the hardware occupancy to 100%. After 30 minutes, we tested the heat dissipation of three types of notebooks by thermal imager.
The maximum temperature of the three notebooks is not much different, and the temperature is mainly concentrated in the heat dissipation outlet. In the common keyboard area, the heat dissipation distribution of the three notebooks is not the same. Lenovo is mainly located on the left side of the keyboard, Dell is mainly located in the middle of the keyboard, and HP is mainly located on the right side of the keyboard. This represents the relative difference of the core hardware layout of the three products.
