Lenovo Legion 5i – Gaming Laptop - Intel® Core™ i7-14700HX - 15" 2.5K WQXGA PureSight OLED Display–165Hz Refresh Rate–NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 – 16 GB Memory – 1 TB Storage – 3 Months of PC GamePass

I came from the world of Thinkpads to fall for this Legion. I had (still have) a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme 2nd with i7-9750H, 64GB of RAM, 3TB of storage, 4K OLED touch panel and the GTX 1650 max-Q. I purchased this laptop in 2019 when it was announced (very pricey, but it was one of the best). It was very good at the beginning, but his thinness was a major flaw because it was overheating like hell with time passing. Since my work requires a powerhouse laptop with both the CPU and GPU, my laptops couldn't handle the workload anymore. I use a lot of virtualization labs and video rendering and it takes too much time to render one video session. So I looked for a replacement and found this Legion and I was quite impressed but a bit disappointed. Here are the pros and cons: Pros: - Very light: almost the same weight as my older Thinkpad - The OLED screen is amazing (The thinkpad was a bit better because of its 4K panel, but less bright than the Legion) - The CPU is sooo powefull and everything is snappy. The GPU is also very good for my needs (I'm not a hardcore gamer, just a casual one) - The laptop is quiet all the time, but the fans kick like a jet taking off when I run some heavy tasks (video rendering) lol. I don't mind the noise for performance. - The lid can be opened with one hand, not like my old Thinkpad - The webcam quality is way better than my Thinkpad's - You can switch between performance modes using Fn+Q shortcut - You can overclock the GPU and undervolt the CPU (haven't tried it yet) - the HDMI and power port are located behind the laptop - Webcam switch to enable/disable it Cons: - Only 16GB of RAM for this price, which make it pricier - No fingerprint scanner or Windows Hello compatible Webcam - Typing on the Legion's keyboard is quite good, but not as delicious as the ThinkPad (1.5mm key travel vs 1.8mm for the Thinkpad) - in my opinion, the numpad keyboard wasn't necessary since by adding it, they had to shift the keyboard to the left which needs you to get used to it. - The black color is a fingerprint magnet. - The battery life is average. Coming from my Thinkpad that had less than 2h of battery life, I can squeeze more than the Thinkpad if I enable the Quiet mode and reduce the screen's brightness. But it's more than enough for me since I'm plugged in almost all the time - No SD card reader and not enough ports Regarding the delivery, Amazon used the " Lenovo Legion 5i Gaming laptop...." instead of "Lenovo Legion 5 15IRX10", which is the accurate name of the product, and that created an issue with the customs. Please Amazon, next time use the real name of the product because there are many models and generations of the Legion 5. I received the laptop 2 weeks ago, so I'll wait to see if there are any other issues.

I paid about $1,700 after tax for this Lenovo Legion 5i, and honestly, it’s beyond my expectations. The performance is smooth across everything I’ve tried — from everyday tasks to heavy gaming. The build feels solid, the cooling does a great job while keeping the fan noise really low and the display is sharp and immersive. At this price point, I feel like it’s absolutely worth it. The only area I’d suggest for improvement is RAM — the system is strong out of the box, but with more RAM it could unlock even more potential, especially for multitasking and future-proofing. Overall, I’m very satisfied and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, high-performance gaming laptop.

I am very happy with this laptop! I love the screen and enjoying my games on the beautiful OLED screen. I’m honestly thinking of maybe getting rid of my bigger gaming rig, which does have a better GPU and CPU, but I’m not playing it as much as I used to. I’m happy that Lenovo made it easy to access the inside of the computer to add a 2nd hard drive in it and down the line, add more Ram. No issues with it so far. Very happy with my purchase! UPDATE: Some may complain about the single 16GB RAM Stick. I much prefer that if a Windows 11 laptop only has 16GB of RAM that it would be a single RAM Stick. I know I will just need to buy one 16GB Ram stick if I want to upgrade to 32 GB. Over the long run it is cheaper if you want 32GB of RAM. 16GB is the absolute minimum that you want for Windows 11. This laptop is easy enough to upgrade, which also helps!

Im very satisfied with this product. Its cheap compared to other laptops with same specs. Good cpu, good gpu, wifi 7, Bluetooth 5.3 ssd is also good 6500mb/s, screen is brilliant, video editing is also nice. I have big pc and im selling it now cus i don't need him after i got that legion. Its not heavy, microphone is very nice, ppl here me very good. Dynamic is not so good but ok. (Not my first laptop)

Great gaming pc, it’s made for this. Easy to upgrade, added an additional internal hard drive and adding ram. Made a desktop gaming setup, plug and play. Wi-Fi is good, heat isn’t a problem. Very fast loading times, games load fast fast. Looks sleek and light. Easy to take it and go. One drawback, the speakers are terrible, If you buy this, definitely buy some headphones or some external speakers or both.

Wifi card is a huge issue. Dropped connections constantly. Needs a full reboot every time for it to somewhat work.

It's a good laptop, battery life could be better but is enough, mine came with a corner damaged that damaged the case and the screen but it's nothing serious, I won't be returning because I live far and it would take more than a month to have other again. I'll give it a 9/10. Solid buy

Exactly as expected.

Me encanto la calidad del Producto , el monitor sin igual y la velocidad del equipo. Gran precio

Laptop is good but unfortunately I had to get it elsewhere as delivery was inaccurate and was refunded with out notice and amount was incorrect Amazon had to correct the refund issue love the laptop but would only suggest this company if you are a patient person

Para el momento en que escribo esta reseña es el 2do dia desde que la recibí, pero puedo decir que la verdad desde el inicio viene bien empaquetada y tiene un diseño muy bonito, el teclado lo he sentido muy suave cuando se teclea, la pantalla tiene muy buena resolución y sin hablar de los componentes que son muy buenos, todo me parece exelente obviamente teniendo en cuenta que se trata de un equipo portátil, si acaso el unico detalle que he tenido quizá por la configuración en que la tengo configurada es que su batería me ha durado unas 2-3 horas cargada al 100% pero quizá la tenga configurada al 100% de rendimiento, no soy un experto en computadoras, pero fuera de eso para mi es un 10/10

جهاز محترم جدا ومتوسط الوزن يعمل جيدا في مهام البرمجه كما متوقع منه
