Hey everybody, quick correction: Some of you were pointing out that you can get higher power-draw out of the RTX 3050 Ti using the laptop’s power profiles. After setting the laptop to “Performance mode” in the Lenovo Vantage App, the RTX 3050 Ti would draw up to 85w compared to the 60w max shown in the video. So this laptop does indeed have a full power RTX 3050 Ti in it. I’m terms of performance: BF V Balanced mode (max 60w, seen in video) Avg: 90 FPS 1%: 39 FPS Performance mode (max about 85w) Avg: 95 FPS 1%: 33 FPS Sorry about missing out that detail in the video. I will administer the appropriate self flagellation as punishment for my incompetence.
I think the matt plastic and simple black colour scheme looks really nice and understated. Not a fan of gaming laptops which have the loud "GAMER" aesthetic.
I bought a 5800H + 3050ti@85W Legion 5 for my brother as his gift when he went into college last year. Though it costs around $1000, the building quality, GPU overclocking, and CPU undervolt abilities are really amazig. It's rare that a $1000-ish laptop GPU can actually run to its maxinum without getting too hot or underclocking itself. By restricting the CPU to 45W + undervolting, Its program compiling speed is way way faster than my old i5-9300H.
You have to remember, in Alder Lake 45W mobile CPU class, the i5 has only 4P cores. You need the i7 to get 6P cores for gaming. E cores don't do shit for gaming , probably only good to run bloatware that the laptop comes with. If its a desktop Alder Lake CPU, then yeah, the i5 has 6P cores which is more than enough.
my cousin has a bit older version of this lenovo, an i5 11th gen? and rtx 3050 non ti and it is pretty solid. definitely added a second 8gb ddr4 stick as soon as possible
You were not in the FN+Q Power Profile Performance Mode so the GPU won't pull 85w and the cpu would also got a boost if you enabled it... but i guess you didn't know you could switch to the Performance Mode? its also accessible via Lenovo Vantage
My dad's old HP laptop (2nd gen Intel old) has a small removable panel with just 3 screws and you could easily access the RAM slots, WiFi / BT card, and 2.5" drive bay, and it made it a breeze to upgrade. My 2 year old Lenovo has soldered RAM and requires a pentalobe screwdriver to open. It's amazing how much we have regressed in terms of laptop upgradeability.
MacBook Pros used to be easy to upgrade, too. It wasn’t until the Retina MacBook Pro in 2012 that they started using pentalobe screws and soldered on RAM.
@@condorX2 No way. Not at double the price point. Shopped around and found others just like this with some slight differences in cpu, ram, ssd, etc. I don't need a new PC, but a cheap enough laptop upgrade I'll certainly pull the trigger. 😁
This makes sense if you feel like you need a mobile gaming setup. But I think except for a small number of users a desktop is the only gaming device you need
Still using my Rog Zephyrus G14 with the Ryzen 9 and 2060 MaxQ. Got it just before things went to shit via pandemic and then the crazy gpu stuff. It has treated me well and still gets plenty of use
That display measures worse than the 2001 Gateway 17" LCD I just replaced, jeez. I get a lot of customers coming in looking for laptops for RUclips video editing, so thanks for showing that.
It should be mandatory in the laptop industry to have panel on the bottom, with normal screws, which when removed exposes the SSD slot and upgradable RAM. ..........My old Lenovo Z580 has it. But every other laptop I've opened has been a nightmare..
In terms of how many screws, that reminds me of my old hp pavilion beats edition. That thing was a PAIN just to open, and you need to take out the entire motherboard just to upgrade the ram, it also had an amd A8-5545m with one copper heat pipe connected to a garbage fan that broke within a year of use, and it liked to throttle to 1.68Ghz.
if the hp pavillion beats edition you had is the same as i have, the ram is the easiest upgrade, take off panel on the back, pop in another ram, put panel back on, no need to take the laptop apart.
Great video man! With Lenovo Legion laptops… there is a balanced mode, silent mode, and turbo mode. It looks like you had it in balance mowed the whole time. Next time… hit Fn+Q on your keyboard, and you will see the power button light up different colors. Red is turbo mode, white is balanced, and blue is silent. Most likely turbo mode it will boost the GPU to 80W.
To be completely fair, LTT has been doing teardowns for a while now. It also feels like since they started doing them there have been less glued together soldered-ssd abominations.
I've had my 17" 2060 Leg-Ion laptop for about 2 years now. A couple week ago It started having charging issues. The charger was extremely flaky when plugged in the laptop port holding the port in a very particular way barely charging it. I thought the solder joints failed since the charge cable was perfectly unkinked. I contacted warranty support. They had a box shipped out the next day. I shipped it and the next day I got an email they received it. cool right. The repair took about 2 days and over the weekend. They shipped it back after the weekend. I got my same laptop back with a new charger and an incorrect generic Lenovo Windows image fresh installed. I know its a generic Lenovo image because it didn't have any of the Leg-ion Vantage tools or the Leg-Ion desktop wallpaper (I really liked that wallpaper 😞) now its some ugly generic green lenovo wallpaper and on top of that I've spent at least 2 hours so far trying to figure out the damn unknown hardware in device manager!!! Ive tried all the drivers listed for my model on the website and its still unknown😡 WHY THE F*** DID THEY RE IMAGE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE WHEN IT WAS NOT EVEN SOFTWARE RELATED. I know it wasn't software related because when I received it I tried my original charger, and it did the same flaky barely able to charge issue. the new charger works fine
i got a new laptop in this time of year, a Medion Erazer Deputy P25 for 800 euro, a 230W laptop with a 54W Ryzen 5 5600H and 130W RTX 3060. It did come with 1x 512GB NVME storage and 1x8 GB of ram, which i upgraded to 2x8 from my old laptop and to 1.5TB storage with a 1TB samsung evo 870 SSD. Honestly an amazing laptop for the prize, and i even plan to put in another 512 GB of storage in here later on. EDIT: I forgot to mention it has one of the best luxuries ever: a detachable battery without any teardwown. just two clicks and it's out. It is 49.96 Wh tho, but it's ok enough to quickly save your progress if your power goes out.
I own an older version of this laptop with Ryzen 5 4600h and GTX 1650. It's almost a couple of years old now, but it still runs fantastically well! Also, it came with a 256 GB ssd and 1 TB hard disk; which I upgraded 2 TB Hard disk and an additional 1 TB SSD. The laptop had costed me ₹63000 (roughly $1000) back then and it's worth every penny!
my guess, he will sell the rubbish pc and/or laptop after upgrading or keep the best ones for himself or strip the rubbish overpriced ones for spare parts.
I had a friend who only used gaming laptops for work, and gaming but he replaced thermal paste every time since he mostly bought used ones and put a SATA SSD in them.
Man, this is a great budget buy. Perfect for a collage student. My part about this laptop is all the ports that are in the back. The thing I dislike is the all that wasted empty space for the battery. And also it's acceptable that they're still doing the power plug type, but we need to be moving to USB Type-C by next generation. I suspect that Lenovo is just trying to use up it's stock of its proprietary connector. Why change when everyone else is doing their own power connector type too, haven't consolidated using USB-C yet.
I actually have the iteration before this one and the wasted area next to the battery is an area to hook up an internal hard drive. You are right though this is perfect for me as a college student, but that extra battery would be nice considering I don't use the internal hard drive space
The insides remind me a lot of my older model Acer Predator, but at that point maybe it's just the most efficient way of doing motherboards on gaming laptops
i was thinking it was a good idea having downward facing speakers, people that use laptops drink around them and if they spill anything over it, it won't leak into the circuit of the system.
7:06 there’s so much wasted room near the battery, they could’ve added an additional M.2 slot or 2.5 expansion bay. It’s nice to have extra storage since budget gaming laptops sometimes only come with 256 gb. My HP gaming 15 has one which was really helpful for downloading more than 2 games I put in a 512 gb
I have this laptop and the reason there is space there next to the battery is because it also comes with a bigger 4-cell battery (which I have) which fills up that space. Also it does have a second M.2 slot, it's in the bottom right corner a 2280 bay and there is also a 2242 M.2 slot which is Gen 4.
I managed to snag a Legion 5i with an i5-11400H, RTX 3060, 144Hz Display, 512GB and 8GB DDR4 (upgraded to 16GB) all for $790 from one of our local PC Stores. Very happy find
I bought a 10500H / RTX 3060 (70W) laptop last year for a bit more than this and it is very capable with a 32GB RAM kit installed in it. That said, when the 3060 is at 100% the fans barely spool up but when the 10500H goes past 15% utilization it cranks the fans and pours out heat like a volcano.
I hate when they put 1 high end component and the rest is just meh, just put everything middle tier, why do they even do that, when it is bottlenecked so hard.
I got a 4800h/1660ti laptop for 650 a year and a half ago, upgraded to 32gb ram and a full TB for a grand total of 850. Love it so much, deal of a decade.
Had to pause the video just to say that was the best sponsor plug I've ever seen. Dawid, you've got "it" son, you've got "it" (definitely a good thing 😁)
I just bought a HP Victus gaming laptop on black Friday few months ago, Love it! It has a 12th gen intel core i5, Had 8gb or ram but I added another 8gb stick and now it has 16 gb, Geforce 1650 GPU, 144hz screen and 512 gb of nvme SSD, I only spent 500$ USD on it at best buy, Love it, Does everything that I need it to do, Great laptop.
Great deal ,great review thanks man , sometimes we end up wanting to buy powerful machine while playing light games like PES I feel this will do the job
A pet peeve of mine is how they market these laptops as having 'RTX3050Ti' 'RTX3080' and so on, they should have dedicated mobile names in the marketing. It's fine for us who understand pc tech but it is very confusing for less tech savvy people when they see half the performance. Especially when these laptop always are on 'sale' and grandma and grandpa who is out buying christmas presents see the deal compared to the price of the graphic card little Timmy has put on his wishing list.
You're my favourite Linode spokesperson who also runs a tech youtube channel by going on the computer sections of e-commerce websites and clicking around with his eyes closed.

Thanks for the informative content , can you a video for best budget gaming latops under $900.
Would be interesting to see how 16Gb goes using the original plus a new 8Gb.
Make a colour calibration video for this please!
can i have one laptop you dont need it
At this point I am convinced that dawid owns a part of linode

I think the matt plastic and simple black colour scheme looks really nice and understated. Not a fan of gaming laptops which have the loud "GAMER" aesthetic.
Solid black with the rgb multizone zone back-lit keyboard and I'm a happy camper with the gamer laptops 😅
have you seen the aspire 7? that thing literally looks like an office laptop with a celeron or something but its actually pretty capable
Well no worries then, since this computer can't game worth a damn anyway.
@@microtasker It looks like decent performance for the price. Especially for a laptop. Look at the benchmarks in the video.
I prefer gaudy and wild looking machines tbh
The lenovo legion 5/7 laptops are excellently build, one of the few laptops were you won’t be constantly overheating
I have an older one with a 10750H and 1660 Ti and can agree.
AWM17R5 Is chonky and stays cool as can be with a 1070 lmao

Got a legion 5 Pro with a 3070 here.
I got a legion 7 recently to repair and I was blown away by how premium it was. They are well built laptops that are worth the extra money
This is a good deal, but I would go for the i5 version. Probably just as good for gaming and you save a couple bucks.
no point waiting for i5 if the gpu is rtx 3050 ti
You have to remember, in Alder Lake 45W mobile CPU class, the i5 has only 4P cores. You need the i7 to get 6P cores for gaming.

@@fleurdewin7958 The 4P has been shown to be perfectly capable at gaming, as is the case with the i3-12100
I guess it depends on the pricing and what you want to do with it, but yeah if it’s a decent bit cheaper.
You were not in the FN+Q Power Profile Performance Mode so the GPU won't pull 85w and the cpu would also got a boost if you enabled it... but i guess you didn't know you could switch to the Performance Mode? its also accessible via Lenovo Vantage

One word apple
this lenovo's and apple's way, if you want ram or ssd upgraded, send back to us at cost to you.
MacBook Pros used to be easy to upgrade, too. It wasn’t until the Retina MacBook Pro in 2012 that they started using pentalobe screws and soldered on RAM.
Soldered components should be banned
Form over function. How could the marketing team explain the thickness if everything is accessible and replaceable. It's very important... 🙃
I literally would have bought this at that price point with no hesitation. It went from $715 to $1399 already. That blows. XD
Oh wow! That jumped up fast. Just keep an eye out though. The sales are all over the place. 👍
@@DawidDoesTechStuff Have to admit I also looked shortly after the video said" I Must Be Hitting The Wrong Link!" This is $1399!! Lol
ah i was wondering what the deal was. For 700 yes its killer, 1400 now noway
Did you actually gone through buying the thing?
@@condorX2 No way. Not at double the price point. Shopped around and found others just like this with some slight differences in cpu, ram, ssd, etc. I don't need a new PC, but a cheap enough laptop upgrade I'll certainly pull the trigger. 😁
The usbc on the back is actually usbc thunder so you can hook it up to an external gpu
Nice
This makes sense if you feel like you need a mobile gaming setup. But I think except for a small number of users a desktop is the only gaming device you need
@@ruffprophetproductions exactly I always wonder what the point of thunder is
Oh cool!

Nice! Those Zephyrus G14s look like really nice laptops.
Nice! I have the exact same one. It's a beast of a little laptop. Still holds it's own just fine today 👍👌
It is definitely a beast and it is incredibly pleasing visually as well as sleek.
A great tool for opening laptops are the Lego separators, I always use them when working on devices and it's never failed me!
5:00 JARROD'S TECH Broke a bit from his own laptop when dissasembling.
I see lots of spinoff brands selling 115+15w 3060 with 11800h and giving 180w brick with it. Good job on the brick Lenovo!
just like my Dell G15 which came with 180w charger aswell :/
I absolutely love the linode ad spots, you just do them so well

I've never seen Dawid so relieved and happy to see a single stick of ram.
Ahh, I haven't had me a good ol' steaming cup of Linode today Dawid, thanks for the reminder (seriously, that skit made me laugh so hard!!!)
I Imagine that engineer at Lenovo that thought he designed a Dawid proof laptop case is going home sad today.
HAHAHAHA! The Linode intro. I can't 🤣👌🙏
I love the idea of gaming laptops hate the idea of no upgrade path.
I agree. That’s why Framework laptops are really promising. Hopefully they bring out a gaming laptop soon.
That beat at 07:32 paired with putting a laptop down was amazing!
Oh come on Dawid, you play tarkov. The num pad is a must have for flea market transactions!
That linode section was absolutely BEAUTIFUL
Very high quality unboxing video really enjoyed it great job 👍

It should be mandatory in the laptop industry to have panel on the bottom, with normal screws, which when removed exposes the SSD slot and upgradable RAM. ..........My old Lenovo Z580 has it. But every other laptop I've opened has been a nightmare..
Impressive ! Just bought a Legion 5 (5600H, 2x8GB, 512GB SSD, 140W RTX 3070, Full HD 165Hz IPS G-Sync) for less than 1000€ before tax. Incredible !
Thats very good price three months ago i got Legion 5 for 923eur. but only with a RTX3060
I wish companies can watch these videos and take ideas. Laptops would be so much better with two ram sticks and a glory hole
In terms of how many screws, that reminds me of my old hp pavilion beats edition. That thing was a PAIN just to open, and you need to take out the entire motherboard just to upgrade the ram, it also had an amd A8-5545m with one copper heat pipe connected to a garbage fan that broke within a year of use, and it liked to throttle to 1.68Ghz.

Dawid, have you ever been approached by a stranger on the street who has said "LIIIIINOOOOODE" to you?
damn the tech costs in the west are good, I just got the lower spec version(i5 11 gen and 1650) for approx 700 usd
I'm in the US and this laptop in the link is actually 1400 right now so don't feel bad. That sale didn't last very long.
That Linode ad was great. Made me think of like the 2010-2015 era American Ford f-150 ads. Lmao but with a thick accent that is not Texan.
As someone who works on computers daily, i miss the days of the RAM, HDD, Battery Glory holes.

does anyone else ever wonder what he does with the PC's he buys .
does he return them or send them to a venereal disease ridden, PC hell?
probably sends them to Surrey,BC!

So sad that here in Italy we have 20% taxes and that laptop costs 850 to 900 euros. And €1 = $0.95
I am a bit obsessed with you saying Linode
finally!! Another video!! i'll take anything at this point watched all your vis
Well with 2 memory slots for this price point, is quite unusual as today most laptop offer only one, or worst, none at all.
the same laptop probably cost atleast $1100 from where i live

What does Linode have on Dawid that some of his most original work is his Linode intros? 😂
I like that Linode advertisement! Sounds like it will work well in my ranch.
Every laptop I've owned has broken within a year. Not physically, but something always fails.
Everyone is rioting because he didn't yell "LIINOOOOODE" accompanied by an explosion.
Actually not bad deal with that laptop. Powerful enough to play games and relatively small to be carried around.

I got a 4800h/1660ti laptop for 650 a year and a half ago, upgraded to 32gb ram and a full TB for a grand total of 850. Love it so much, deal of a decade.
was not expecting the Shelby Foote ad
"Quite floppy" Words Anna is used to saying around Dawid ;)
I like how they just spray painted the heatsinks blue lol
Would be a hit out of the park but I really would like just a simple backlit keyboard, NO RGB shenanigans. Still an insane deal for the money.
Great video Dawid great content! What is the CPU / GPU overlay you use for your tests?
Thanks! I use MSI afterburner. You can find a whole bunch of guides on RUclips about how to set up the overlay for MSI afterburner. 👍
@@DawidDoesTechStuff awesome thank you so much!!!
Love the LINODE! Spot but what accent were you going for there?
Had to pause the video just to say that was the best sponsor plug I've ever seen. Dawid, you've got "it" son, you've got "it" (definitely a good thing 😁)
I just bought a HP Victus gaming laptop on black Friday few months ago, Love it! It has a 12th gen intel core i5, Had 8gb or ram but I added another 8gb stick and now it has 16 gb, Geforce 1650 GPU, 144hz screen and 512 gb of nvme SSD, I only spent 500$ USD on it at best buy, Love it, Does everything that I need it to do, Great laptop.
That Linode ad should have been done in a Western Theme. 😂
Great deal ,great review thanks man , sometimes we end up wanting to buy powerful machine while playing light games like PES I feel this will do the job
A pet peeve of mine is how they market these laptops as having 'RTX3050Ti' 'RTX3080' and so on, they should have dedicated mobile names in the marketing. It's fine for us who understand pc tech but it is very confusing for less tech savvy people when they see half the performance. Especially when these laptop always are on 'sale' and grandma and grandpa who is out buying christmas presents see the deal compared to the price of the graphic card little Timmy has put on his wishing list.
I think I will stick to my easy to upgrade towers, but thanks for sharing this nifty little laptop.
You're my favourite Linode spokesperson who also runs a tech youtube channel by going on the computer sections of e-commerce websites and clicking around with his eyes closed.
Hey mate can you put an aio on a gt710 to make it as cold as you can?
