Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) Price in Nepal 2025 [Updated]

14th-generation laptops have been slowly rolling to Nepal in the last month or so. Notably the new Zenbook 14 with its Core Ultra 7 chipset and just recently the ROG Strix G16 and G18 gaming laptops with their Raptor Lake refresh CPUs. We also expect the 2024 Predator lineup from Acer to make its way to Nepal soon. But wanna know what’s already here ? – the new Lenovo LOQ 15 and 16. In this article, let’s take a look at the Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024), its design, specifications, price in Nepal, and availability. 

Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) Overview

Design and Display 

We don’t see much departure in the looks department. The new LOQ 15 features a plastic chassis with a decent build like its predecessor (LOQ 15 2023 Review). It weighs about 2.4 kg and is available in Luna Grey color option.

Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) display

The display panel is a 15.6 inch IPS LCD of Full HD res and a 16:9 aspect ratio. It does have good enough colors at 100% sRGB coverage and features a matte coating. And since it’s a gaming laptop, you do get a fast 144Hz refresh rate with G-Sync support. Do note that not all models have identical screens, so double-check your specs before the purchase.

Performance and Memory 

The LOQ 2024 can be configured with both 13th and 14th-generation Intel Core processors as well as Ryzen chips. But the highlight is on the new 14700HX.

The Core i7-14700HX in the LOQ 15 is a 20-core, 28-thread chip that has extra efficiency cores (12 > 8), and higher clock speeds than its predecessor (5.5 GHz max clock vs 5.0 GHz) which should bring a performance boost in both single-threaded as well as max load workflows. The 14700HX is a Raptor Lake refresh CPU and is not based on the new Meteor Lake architecture with an Intel 4 process node. But since efficiency, and a better iGPU aren’t the top priorities when it comes to a gaming laptop, the Raptor Lake i7 is a fine choice for the LOQ 15 (2024). Oh! and you have Lenovo’s AI chip (LA1 in this model) for an even better gaming experience and dual fans for cooling. 

Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) cooling

Currently, you can purchase the Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) with an NVIDIA RTX 4060 GPU with 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM and a 115W TGP in Nepal. As other configurations make their way, we’ll keep updating the article. The laptop comes with 16GB of fast DDR5 (5600MHz) RAM with an extra slot for future upgrades. On the SSD side, you get a 1TB Gen 4 model with an additional M.2 slot.

Battery and Extras

Under the hood, there’s a decent 60Wh battery and you get a 230W Slim Tip charger in the box that refills the machine in just about an hour. On the ports side, you get three USB-A’s, one type C, an HDMI, a headphone jack, and an ethernet port. The USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port also supports 140W charging.

Samsung Galaxy M16 5G: A budget twin of A16

Hey everyone! If you’re planning to buy a phone around 30,000 rupees and the Samsung A16 is on your list, you might want to hit pause for a second because there’s a new phone in town that’s giving the A16 a serious run for its money. The phone is the Galaxy M16, and I will be discussing it in depth here.

The M16 5G is almost a clone of the A16 5G. Same specs, same performance, same camera, same display. It’s like Samsung just gave the A16 a haircut and a new outfit and released it under a different name. But the kicker is that the M16 is actually cheaper. The 6GB RAM and 128GB storage version of the M16 costs 27,000 rupees, which is about 3,000 less than the A16. So if you’re all about getting value for your money, this one’s worth a serious look.

The only real difference between the two is that the A16 also comes in an 8GB RAM version. So if you’re a power user who keeps 20 apps running in the background or jumps between gaming, editing, and social media all day, that extra RAM might be useful. But if you’re like most people who just want smooth performance for everyday stuff, 6GB will easily get the job done.

Samsung Galaxy M16 5G review

Unboxing the M16 is a no-nonsense affair. There’s nothing surprising in the box. Just the basics, you get the phone, a cable, and the usual paperwork. It’s exactly what you’d expect from Samsung in this price range. Nothing flashy, but everything you need to get started.

Design and Build

  • 164.4 x 77.9 x 7.9 mm
  • 191 g
  • Glass front, plastic back, plastic frame

Design-wise, I personally think the M16 actually looks better than the A16. It’s got a slightly more modern look with a pill-shaped camera module that reminds me of Samsung’s more premium A26 and A36 models. The body is still plastic both the back and the frame but it feels decent in the hand. It also comes with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, which is fast and reliable. On top of that, the M16 has IP54 water and dust resistance, which is a nice bonus. It won’t survive a swim, but it can handle splashes, rain, or the occasional drop into a kitchen sink.

Display

  • 6.7 inches
  • Super AMOLED, 90Hz, 800 nits

Let’s talk about the screen. Both the M16 and A16 come with a 6.6-inch AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate and Full HD+ resolution. That’s a fancy way of saying the screen looks sharp, colors are vibrant, and scrolling feels smooth. Whether you’re watching Netflix, scrolling through Instagram, or just browsing the web, the display does a solid job.

There’s no HDR support, so you won’t get that ultra-vivid look while watching HDR content but honestly, it’s not a big deal unless you’re really into video quality. One thing I felt a little bit outdated by is the waterdrop-style notch. In 2025, that design is starting to feel a little tired, but it’s something you’ll quickly get used to.

Performance

  • Mediatek Dimensity 6300 (6 nm), Octa-core
  • Mali-G57 MC2

Performance-wise, you’re getting the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset on both phones. This chip is not built for hardcore gaming, but it handles everyday tasks like social media, YouTube, messaging, and basic multitasking without any issues. There might be occasional slowdowns if you push it hard, but overall, it feels smooth and reliable for regular use. You can even do some light gaming.

I tested PUBG, which runs at around 40 frames per second. It’s playable, just don’t expect a buttery smooth experience. Heavier games like Genshin Impact do struggle a bit, but casual games like Mobile Legends, Candy Crush, or Clash of Clans run just fine.

Samsung Galaxy M16 Battery

Battery

  • 5000 mAh, 25W wired

Battery life is pretty standard for Samsung these days. The M16 packs a 5000mAh battery, the same as the A16. It gave me about six and a half to seven hours of screen time, which means you can easily get through a full day on a single charge. When it comes to charging, it supports 25W fast charging, and if you’re using Samsung’s official charger, it takes roughly an hour and a half to fully top up. Not the fastest charging in the world, but not bad either.

Software

  • Android 15, up to 6 major Android upgrades
  • One UI 7

Now, software is an area where Samsung really pulls ahead of most of the competition. The M16 runs on One UI 7, which is Samsung’s latest version of Android. It looks clean, it’s easy to use, and it doesn’t come loaded with a ton of bloatware. But I think the best part is that Samsung is promising six years of software updates, which includes four major Android updates and two extra years of security patches. That’s something you rarely see in this price range. It means the phone will stay secure and usable for a long time. If you’re someone who holds onto a phone for four or five years, this is a huge plus.

Camera

  • 50 MP, f/1.8 (wide)
  • 5 MP, f/2.22 MP, f/2.4 (macro)
  • 13 MP (front camera)

Main Camera

As for the cameras, there’s no real difference between the M16 and the A16. Both have a triple-camera setup with a 50-megapixel main sensor, an 8-megapixel ultrawide, and a 2-megapixel macro camera.

In good lighting, photos come out sharp with nice colors. The detail is decent, and the photos look almost identical between the two models. I did notice that the M16 sometimes struggles a bit with dynamic range, especially when there’s a lot of light and shadow in the same frame, but it’s a small difference.

Daytime images

Portrait

Portrait shots look nice, with a soft background blur and a slightly pinkish tone that Samsung phones often add.

Ultrawide

Ultrawide photos aren’t that great on either phone. They look washed out, and the detail is pretty weak, so don’t expect amazing shots there.

Night time 

Night photography is okay, both phones do a decent job, but again, nothing impressive.

Videos

For videos, you can record up to 1080p at 30 frames per second. There’s no stabilization, so if your hands are shaky or you’re moving around a lot, the footage can look a bit wobbly. But for static shots or simple clips, the quality is good enough.

Samsung Galaxy M16 review: Conclusion

So, what’s the conclusion? Well, if you’re trying to decide between the A16 and the M16, and you don’t need the extra 8GB RAM version, the M16 is clearly the better deal. You’re saving money and getting almost exactly the same experience. The M16 looks a bit better, works just as well, and still gives you long-term updates and solid performance for everyday use.

Unless you really need that higher RAM option for heavy multitasking, the M16 is the smart pick here. It’s great for regular users, content consumers, and anyone who wants a reliable phone that will last for years without breaking the bank.
