Found new favorite computer channel. This guy can produce new videos so quick, yet they're very informative.
We won’t be hurting for content around here. Wait until you see my video backlog … videos forever more
Yes this channel is just awesome and provides really honest and indepth review. Im in love wid this channel .
Appreciate the good mic quality and as always thorough reviews
RUclips algo hear my prayer. Show this video to more peeps
Haha thanks !
Much love and respect to you man! I heard you buy all these devices and are pretty much broke 💀💀 I just wanted to let you know how much viewers appreciate your content. Thanks for what you do, and your in-depth reviews!
Thanks 🙏 Yeah, to date I’ve bought every gaming laptop I’ve ever covered, and about 95% of all laptops overall for review.
I guess it’s a business investment, and it really does help me do things my own way. I don’t mind review units whatsoever but I think there needs to be a balance. Otherwise how can someone understand the importance of value? If everything was just sent to me and I was rolling in cash then I don’t think I’d appreciate the importance of good pricing
@@TechGuyBeauthanks you very much man for these reviews, i have been searching for days in internet for the comparison of the new lenovo legion lineup (2024). This is by far the best channel covering these.
Also the fact that you buy these make you care for the values by price, which make it more relatable and genuine.
thank you so much for this video. i was looking for a laptop that i could do everything on, like gaming and lighter stuff like schoolwork, and was considering this laptop. i was waiting for an in depth review like this before buying
Subscribed to this channel! The review is really explicit.
welcome!
These videos are so good, love them! How is the silent mode noise while gaming compared to the yoga pro 9i?
Silent mode on AMD legions is always the best. Their power management beats any other brand I’ve tested, even asus with the same specs. They really tune silent mode
Can u tell me how long does the battery last while web browsing and video playback ? Please
Really good and informative, keep up the good work.
Looking forward to your update on the Legion Slim 7i! Do you know what better life looks like on this Slim 5?
You need more appreciation. I don’t usually comment but you deserve it!
Great video. I really liked the breakdown of the computer and showing the ram and SSD slots. I haven’t upgraded my own computer for a while so it’s good to get a refresher. New sub earned.
Awesome. Welcome aboard
Thank you for the review. I ended up buying it for $1,211 in the US. I'll be using the laptop for work, school, and a little gaming.
bought this model with same specs but 32GB RAM and 500nits display! so excited to get it!
Thank you for this review brother! You truly helped me make my choice! I have couple of more questions for you brother! I will try to reach you over disc at a time good for you!
Hi! I instantly like the video and the capabilities of this laptop love the performance and the display, i managed to get the 500nits but there has to be something wrong with my unit because set on quiet with best power saving mode and only on igpu 60 hz and full brightness i get around 2 hours without doing nothing and memory gets around 35-40 ussage, pawer drown 20-25 watt but that's weird in itself and battery saver active or not does absolutely nothing, like it doesn't have any battery saving capabilities
Now i found this one for 1284 usd on lenovo website. I need it for 3D modeling, rendering, unreal engine, unity and gaming of course. Is it a good option in my case? I was considering Loq 15 2023 and Slim 5 2023 both with 4060 512ssd 1080p and 144hz too. But idk I need more opinions
Thanks for the review. Do you know if the legion 7i will be as quiet as this in silent mode? I've looked for reviews but can't find anything.
It should be, however give me some time. I have the 7i in my office right now ready to be unboxed and reviewed. If last year was any indication then it will run very quiet in silent mode
hey Beau, have you seen the new HP Envy x360? They look very close to the spectre, with a 7U processor, 32GB RAM and no Arc graphics. Also no haptic touchpad but that's not a big deal IMO. It looks very interesting, especially that CPU, I wonder if you can get it for review.
Thanks for the review.
Quick question. How to and with what we could add additional SSD on a p16s Gen2 ? Can we use the WWAN slot for this? Also can this board take a 5G fibocom module? What to choose. PCIe or NVMe cards for the WWAN slot?
Answers to these questions really help.
The p16s second slot won’t accept and ssd I have at least. Probably not whitelisted for nvme SSDs.
As for the wwan slot, try putting your serial or model number into the Lenovo website. It should provide you with compatible modules
Does it have an always-on USB just like the intel 5i and pro 5i?
The bright silver makes me anxious. Should have just made it all matte black.
I was waiting for this! Let's go!
Thanks for the thorough breakdown I picked up this machine after watching your review! I ran cinebench and one of my cores is staying at 100 degrees C for the duration of the test. In regular use this core is usually between 10 - 20 degrees hotter than other cores. I understand it will get hot because of the stress test but I wonder if the thermal paste hasn't been done well on my unit. I used performance mode using cinebench and the fans kick up high. I watched your footage again and couldn't tell when you ran cinebench, did any of your cores stay on 100C for the period of the test? or just spike at the start ? I look forward to hearing from you, my exchange period is coming up and I am curious about your thoughts if this is normal behaviour for this model.
How is the laptop doing ? Any issues ?
How heavy it is? No 14" display for this year?
How many fps you get in valorant at native resolution? I am planning to buy same laptop with 4050 and I only play valorant.
Hello, very good review.
I just bought slim 5 14" 32gb RAM, and its nice, however I do not see much of a difference between quiet and performance mode other than unacceptable fan noise in performace mode:) Actually I do not understand why in some game GPU is not pushed higher but staying around 40W in quiet mode, and after change to performace mode around 90W I have pretty same FPS - yeah that is strange.
Anyway I do really like 14" form factor, because its just lighter and smaller, but I am thinking about slim 5 16" with rtx4070, I know there is not much of a difference at least on paper on YT test, just wanted to ask for Your opinion here.
cheers
I have the 2023 version of the same with the RTX 4070 (weirdly it was the same price as the RTX 4060 when I bought it) and the 7840 processor. It has a black keyboard and a black surround that matches it in my case - might be a UK thing, not sure. I love the silent mode - it isn't silent and I do think quiet mode would be a better description, but it's good enough, and I really don't like fan noise - and it is excellent for gaming and worth the small sacrifice in FPS to use that silent mode. I'd call it mid-range rather than budget - it's a lot more expensive (almost double) than the Acer Nitro 5 I bought a couple of years ago which had an RTX 3070 inside it and an Intel chip - and I'm more than happy with it, both for gaming and for development work; I've also done a little video production with it and that went fine as well.
how much u paid in which country?
@@PTGStyle201O £1399 in UK (Currys)
I completely agree with u I think tech companies should hold playing on silent as the benchmark or the target of the development because it has so many physical benefits to the device
Also can u test Fortnite gameplay on silent balanced… and deferent in game settings that game really does reflect performance capabilities in deferent scenarios
I love me some silent mode gaming. I’ll look into fortnight
is legion 5i 2024 with i7 14th gen good? bcz its only available in my country not amd nd i dont want to go with loq which price same but with 4060
Is the 2024 screen still oled? Like last year?
is the 45% NTSC really that bad? coz that's the only available screen i can see on online shops
Lenovo is doing an excellent job in regard to gaming and business laptops. It's really hard to compete.
At least for business laptops, Dell Latitude 7440/Latitude 7450/HP EliteBook 845 G10 are somewhat competitive for business laptops.
I managed to snag this model for $1159 using my student discount and some other sign up discounts that a Lenovo rep helped me with. I get it tomorrow and I'm excited to play Elden Ring on it!
You're videos are so informative, really helping me choose a laptop, it's fantastic! I'm torn between this Legion 5 Slim Gen 9 16" with a 240Hz screen, or the Legion 5 Slim Gen 8 14" OLED. I really like the idea of gaming on those quieter modes and performance configuring you showed in this video, is the gen 8 14" just as capable with this?
I'm worried the gen 8 14" is inferior, but I'm being a sucker for the OLED 😂. And maybe the 240Hz screen is sufficient. Which would you go for, gen 9 16" or gen 8 14"?
Depends on you, if you're not into gaming then oled would be better, but if you're into gaming especially on games like Valorant /CS then getting the 240 is a very good deal honestly as it also brings you 2k HDR display at the same time + better cpu efficiency and overall newer laptop
hey, i have the same laptop, turning off the gpu, using power saving mode, low brightness and even with a few more extra tweaks the battery life is half of what you're getting, my idle power usage when seen through hwinfo is 20 watts. why is this happening and can i fix it
The 4060 variant is available but for some reason is a Canadacomputers exclusive which is strange. Also comes with twice the ram
I thought it will have different chassis with all rear vents (prob. intel version will have that). 2023 editon had pretty good thermals, this one is little bit on higher side with old chassis i think new amd processor is running hotter.
Hey dude
Always love your content
Can you please review the Legion pro 5i 2024 variant. That would be a great help
I already have it in my office >:)
@@TechGuyBeau Cool, desperately waiting for your review.
Planning to buy in next week. Can I get an ETA if possible?
@@zubairkhan72762do that review first then before the 7i
How does this compare to the the Yoga Pro 9i? For gaming (Mainly plugged into a 34 inch 1440p monitor) and as a daily work computer for Software developer. I’m really on the fence on what to get. I’ve been looking at G14/16 2024 models as I liked their new design but they seem a bit pricey for what you get. The G14 4070-model and the Yoga Pro 9i is about 3k usd in Sweden. Do you have any recommendations for a lost soul?
Edit: Great and informative videos btw
Legions are full fledged gaming laptops and have some of the best cooling systems you get on laptops. So a Legion should outperform the Yoga, as Yoga is meant to be a workstation laptop and is considerably lighter than this one. That's the thing with gaming laptops, most of the time you trade weight for cooling and therefore performance.... it's why Legion 7s are so heavy. Pick your poison:
1. Yoga I believe has an OLED display, which is excellent for multimedia and gaming but if you're gonna work on it for long hours, it will be prone to burn in.
2. Yoga will also probably have better speakers and a full metal build.
3. Legion will have the better cooling and performance.
Depending on what your needs are, pick any one.
Thank you! FYI: After countless of hours researching I ended up getting an open box Zephyrus M16 2023 (4070, I9) with the miniLED display. I’m updating RAM from 16 to 64gb and adding another SSD when it arrives. It was about 1000$ cheaper than any alternatives with miniLED or OLED with the same specs in Sweden. I know its quirks and issues but I guess we’ll see how it performs :)
@@carlaxelvonhorn1453 amazing man! Congrats on your new awesome machine!
Keyboard area is plastic or metal?
What is the difference between this model the regular 5 and the 5 pro?
I bought a legion 5, NOT SLIM and also NOT PRO (2024, gen 9) and it does not look like this laptop
Great review, i shall use your lenovo link momentarily 😊😊
Oh wow, thanks dude. You know this means a lot. I buy almost everything I review so using those links is the primary way I can keep this channel going
Love this specs in slim 7 body and ports actually
Because it's really hard to find slim 7 with amd cpu in my region
Didn't watch the entire video, but just got this laptop and upgraded its RAM plus added a secondary SSD. Runs all my games on highest settings no issue, well worth picking this Laptop over comparable gaming laptops that start at 1000 bucks more for the same hardware and I hope it lasts me as long as I hope. :)
What RAM and ssd u choose to upgrade?
@@haroldz123 2TB Crucial SSD serial number CT2000T500SSD8 and 2x16 GB Crucial RAM serial number CT2K16G56C46S5.
Unfortunately I already returned the laptop because I had constant black screen issues where not even the BIOS is visible on the integrated display and I didn't want to deal with warranty guess work repairs on a brand new laptop. Probably had bad luck with a faulty unit, known issue in the Lenovo Legion community.
@@haroldz123 unfortunately I already returned this laptop because of a blackscreen issue that occured already the first day I got it and occured increasingly more often. But I got an M2 SSD from Crucial as well as 2x16 GB RAM from Crucial. You can find the serial numbers of compatible SSDs and RAM on crucials website when searching for the laptops name, which makes ensuring to not buy anything wrong easier.
Picked up last years model in February and I’ve been loving it. Great machine. Only got it since you were raving about it being the best value gaming laptop.
Peer pressure
@@TechGuyBeau only time peer pressure is good. 😂😂 skipped a couple meals to afford this
@@Mzz_401 food is for the weak. Legion is king :P
@@TechGuyBeau legion is king legion is life. Said some dude on the internet 😂😂
What Happened If You Choose 1080 P Does They Have Black Bars On Top
Or Else They Are Also Like This 16:10 Thats Why I Am Saying
Trying to decide between this laptop and the Legion Slim 5 14.5" with OLED screen. Both sizes/weights are acceptable to me, just not sure if the OLED on the 14.5" with soldered 16gb is worth it over the larger, but non-OLED, screen with expandable RAM on the 16".
Would you take the OLED over the screen on this slim 5?
Get the 32gb 14”
Can You run Timespy on it?
@Tech Guy Beau, I am wondering about the differences between LOQ and Legion 5 slim (although same 4060), Legion has a better screen, thus get lower FPS. What about to lower resolution on Legion 5 and get maybe even higher FPS?
Don’t lower the resolution, just use dlss. That’s what is there for
In the UK screen upgrade to 500nits on this exaclty same laptop cost 30£ or US40$
ddr5 runs in dual chanel even if one slot btw …With DDR5, instead of having one 64-bit channel per module, it's split into two 32-bit channels (+8 bits ECC) per module, for more efficient memory access. So it will already show "2x 32-bit" for a single module, even though physically from the board's side, it runs in single-channel mode.
This is exactly what I was going to point out , I would rather have one stick of 16gb running in dual channel that gives me the change to outright upgrade to 32gb by buying one additional module , than give me 2x8gb modules running in quad channel that I'll having to ditch and invest in a 32gb kit to upgrade .
@@abzeed do you know, will any DDR5 RAM with the same speed work? The review said its not a good idea to mix RAM due to some timings (have no idea, not a hardware guy)
The 7940hs (among others of the 7040 series) already had AI cores, thats not new on 8040 chips.
Seems they are pretty much identical tbh.
They are better turned. You can really see it in battery life. Also some Bugs have been ironed out. They are similar though otherwise yeah
Hey can you make a video of Lenovo LOQ i7 14700hx rtx 4060.... That'll really help me, I'm kinda stuck between slim 5 & LOQ 14th gen. Anyways great video as usual 🤍🤍 so so informative 🤌
The loq, with the similar specs and screens, with the right customization would be even cheaper. Please do check the loq 14th gen out.
The LOQ has great value yes, but it locked behind FHD display arch the moment. I’ll grab one when a nice sale drops for sure
I have the 23 version but the only thing i want rn is the black keyboard.
I just bought this exact laptop from Lenovo a couple weeks ago. It’s awesome, but do not activate nvidea software!!! All I did was activate the nvidea software and I had a lot of driver issues. So please just leave it as is. It will work fine. Thanks.
hye what do you think about legion 5 slim 2024 rayzen7 4070 and legion pro 5i 2023, i7 4070, which one should i buy, because both laptop have similiar price in my country❤️
If pride is the same the pro has better cooling. The 5 slim has better battery life. So I’d base it on that.
Hey sorry to bother you but I'm wondering why lenovo loq has kinda close specs to legion 5 slime but the legion is way more expensive? If you're on a tight budget would you think its worth it to get the legion one amyway?
Good question
better cooling + build quality
I own the legion slim 5 2023 version. It does have a power delivery c port but I still can't charge it with a 100W fast mobile charger...is this the case with all the models??
I’ve seen in other reviews it needs to be 140w to work
do you have to pry it open the D part(bottom) like the 2023/2022 models?
No it’s really easy to get the bottom off. You can do it with your finger nails, honestly
@@TechGuyBeau wow great news!! thank you and keep up the good work!
Do you have any plan to review lenovo loq amd gen 9 2024 ??
Once on sale yeah
For about the same price ~1250 usd, I have a quote for Lenovo slim 5 gen 9 and Dell g16. If portability is not an issue for me which one would you recommend? I am mainly looking for something which can give me acceptable performance even after 4-5 years.
Dell g16 7630
2x16gb, 13900hx, rtx 4070, 2.5k IPS, DCI-P3
Lenovo slim 5 gen9
2x8gb, 8845hs, rtx 4070, 2.5k IPS sRGB
Absolutely the Lenovo. Battery life will be massively better, as is the build quality.
Can you do a detailed comparison with last year's Legion Slim 5? The price difference between the two isn't huge in my country
If the price is near equal get this years.
If last years is much cheaper get that. The AI and tuning on the CPU is great for efficiency, but otherwise they are similar
@@TechGuyBeaushould I go for this or Gen 9 LOQ ?
I dont agree that the refresh rate difference is insignificant.
If you are using the laptop for esports titles you will be getting above 165 fps and the higher refresh rate will give a smother experience, especially with gsync
The area you have marked as benchmarks doesn't have important benchmarks. The noise test isn't a benchmark. And it's strange you are doing R23 but only shared its noise results and never the benchmark for which it was actually created. No Time Spy as well. You are reviewing a gaming laptop
is the difference between the 4070 and the 4060 model really noticiable in terms of performance? The only model i can find here is the one with the 4060.
Nope. Maybe 5-10% performance.
Aka 75 fps vs 82 fps
How did you get to customize this? I can’t find any build your own on the website. Did it sell out? They only offer the 350 nits and I refuse to buy anything else than 400 and it better be OLED at that point.
Which country? The builder is still available in Canada although these go out do stock often
I’m in the USA. Bro I’ve been looking at laptops for WEEKS! I don’t have a pc yet but plan to build when cyber Monday comes around. After all my research in looking for an affordable $1300 range gaming laptop that also has decent battery life for me to be able to use in college I keep coming back to Lenovo slims. I’ve been stuck between this and the legion 5 slim OLED. The oled not having upgradable ram killed it for me but after I saw it apparently has flickering in hesitating to buy it now. It’s driving me insane that this model doesn’t have really any videos on RUclips talking about it except for you and 1 other channel I can find. This is currently on sale with the 350nit screen and 16gb ram for $1300 but the OLED 14 is going for $1250. I told I keep waiting I’m afraid the sale on this model will be gone. I’ve never had my own laptop before and I can’t understand the difference between a 500 nit and 350nit screen but honestly that’s what has been holding me back on this model lol. If you were to give your honest opinion on what I should buy with the Slim 5 OLED 14” and the Slim 5 16” gen 9 which would you pick for gaming, school work with priority’s of Heat, screen quality and especially battery life as your biggest concerns?
Hey how are the temps on this? Are they too bad or decent enough.
Good. I’m happy with the cooling performance overall. The 4070 is quite the chip.
The 5 pro cools better but the price is much higher
How did you get it for 1600CAD? Right now, even with -20% sale it is at 1800CAD. Did you buy it from Lenovo directly? Any tips on buying Lenovo laptop?
It was on sale form Lenovo direct recently, my suggestion, just wait for a sale, they pop up constantly
Okay so sorry for pestering you with questions again and again lol, but can you check one thing for me? Can you tell us if the RTX 4070 is pushing 140W or is it still voltage capped around 110 watts or so? Coz last year no RTX 4050, 4060 or 4070 laptop reached the advertised 140W TGP, even the ones advertised with it. They all maxed out around 100W or so.
The 4070 CAN push those watts, but remember wattage sharing is between cpu and GPU. So in gaming it won’t get to 140
Furthermore, there is quite literally no reason to push a 4070 to 140 watts. Once you hit 100 watts, adding more provides to benefits. I highly recommend not cross loading over 100/110 watts on the GPU as it’s putting watts in for no reason.
@@TechGuyBeau okay, so it's still the same then? Meaning no performance gains over 100 watts or so?
@@mihirojha4475exactly. A 4060/4070 should be limited to 100 to 110 watts max. Anything else doesn’t add benefit and maybe hurt performance due to heat
Subbed! XLNT!
What do yo you recommend as the 2nd ssd?
A cheap but large ssd. No need for flagship speeds on a second ssd. Something like a teamgroup mp34 would do the trick
how much difference does it make if you choose to buy this instead of an i7 13700hx cpu laptop ?? and which all aspects will that difference count
Battery life will be much worse on Intel. Otherwise they will be similar
Can you do a gaming test with this laptop pls. that would be nice
Already recorded. I’ll stagger that release for a few days
I'm a bit confused why is there no overdrive option in lenovo vantage? and why is GPU cTGP only up to 115w. i know about voltage limit but its rated for 140w right?
The GPU doesn’t benefit from going above 115 watts. It’s a waste of heat
@@TechGuyBeau how about overdrive? does the display support overdrive because in datasheet for this model it says it does but i didnt see it when u opened lenovo vantage
@@mahsay4995I think they moved the "overdrive" feature to the fps/sport tab in vantage. It allows you to turn on a setting that verbatim explains how overdrive works.
The lenovo slim 5 gen 8 and 9 are the same price rn €1250 wich should i get both has 4070 what are the differences
Better chassis and screen on the 2024 model
Does is still have type c charging issues? A lot of reviewers report not being able to charge it from a non-proprietary charger, and only the ones from Lenovo work.
Yes. I have Lenovo and non Lenovo usbc. Some usb c chargers are not in agreement. They need to be really high wattage.
@@TechGuyBeau like what wattage? 65 watt one wouldnt' be enough anymore? Because My 65w one from UGREEN works perflectly with my Legion 5 pro 2022 version. Aside from 65w not always being enough for high loads like gaming of course.
@@TabalugaDragonit’s just an issue with slim5 models. I dunno why
You need the official Lenovo brick that is only available in China for usb c charging. It won't charge full speed in America either. Only 100w
@@Franciehatescoffeeicecream I see. This is why I went for Legion 5 pro with 3070 ti instead.
More ports, proper type c charging.
One could say "but the 2023 version Pro 5 has proper type c charging" to which I'll say - it only comes equipped with HX CPUs which results in terrible battery life.
2021 and 2022 models were the best of both worlds, then Lenovo ruined it.
Looking at 2023 slim 5 the ryzen 5 version is 900$ but comes with 144hz screen which is as far a i know worse than 165hz which makes me worried
Still idk if its worth to go for 1080$ for ryzen 7 and 165hz screen also still before tax
When compared with the Asus Tuf A15 (2024) Ryzen 9 8945HS Rtx 4060, which is better to buy?
Price difference?
@@TechGuyBeau Lenovo legion slim 5i is priced at $1,499 and Asus tuf A15 is priced at $1,423. If you don't look at the price, in terms of specifications, is it better to buy tuff or legion?
@@laludickyadrianabimantara9094legions have incredible warranty. So all else being equal get the Lenovo. That legion warranty is way ahead of what other brands provide
It has same price with slim 7 rtx 4060 in my region, but unfortunately no grey unit left for slim 7
Glacier white slim 7 is… so nice
you should review the real legion 5 2024 with 3 vent on the back and No vant in the sides!
That’s a legion 5, this is a legion slim. I have the normal 5i in my office at the moment for review aactually
so whats your take, should i go for the 2023 model or this one?
wait for the sales and get the 2024 model
The new cpu does seem to overcome some of the issues with sleep and such. Def wait for a sale though as Aless says
Hey I'm really confuse Im gonnna buy this laptop next month but im confused btw the 2023 model and this new 2024 model
Main reason is that 2023 model is slightly cheap then the 2024 so is it really worth to spend few more for the 2024 model or just go for the 2023 model
Please help me I'm really confused
It’s basically the same, get the new one if the prices are close due to better tuning. Otherwise get last years model
Do all of the Legions ship with only 1 RAM stick? I'd be pretty annoying if they did.
This is the first one I’ve seen with a single stick
I'm confused...whats the difference between this and the Pro 5 versions? I thought the ram was soldered on or something 🤔...
The 5 pro has less plastic and some better cooling option.
Wow you replied! Thanks! Hmmm...I'm on the verge of choosing between this and the pro.
The removal of the right Ctrl key (replaced with ridiculous Co pilot shortcut key) is a dealbreaker for me.
You can remap it. Sadly many computers are going to start implementing it.
Since this laptop doesnt have a fingerprint reader does it have windows hello?
It doesn’t no.
what about this Lenovo Legion Slim 5 16A with these features Powerful Ryzen 5 5500U processor
AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS processor
16GB DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 8GB graphics card

I have a slew of AMD laptop reviews coming too. Just need to get to filming
whats the difference between this and 2023 model?
Chassis minor upgrade.
Last year has more upgradability (ram, ssd n wifi card slot)
Should i buy this or legion 5 i7 14650hx + rtx 4050?
This is better
Yoga pro 9i with mini led 4070 and 185h or this Laptop? I hate loud fans und like bright and good screens. But the yoga is very expensive.😅 Edit: i can hear coilwhine on this Laptop 😮 :(. No Go for me
If you need a lighter and more compact laptop, just take yoga
If you need a lighter but still powerful enough, take the slim 7
Believe me, slim 5 not gonna worth your money if you can look up the yoga 9 price point
Yoga 9i or … legion 7 slim. See if you can snag one of those. I consider them both very good.
The yoga 9i is a true halo product, but the legion 7i / 7 slim I consider the MOST premium legion around. This year they killed the “slim” name so now it’s
Legion 7i. (Not pro) Either way. You are winning these these options.
Basically, the same as the 23 version apart from the ai chip!
How is the battery life ?
Superb. Truly
I can only say "plastic" ...
I hope the Legion 7 Pro gen 9 (AMD) is 100% aluminium and has same chassis as the Legion 7i (white + rgb).
Not to mention it has the RTX 5090 laptop gpu and a Ryzen 9 8955G (dual Z1 Extreme, i would expect). Definately the highest quality.
Ddr5 always runs in dual channel as far as I've read.
Theoretically yes, you’ll still lose speed but not like if you were running one ddr4 kit. So it’s not a big deal in this case
This guy simply loves Lenovo laptops, it is shame if Lonovo is not paying him.
I don’t want to be paid. I don’t take sponsors right now .
I have some Amazon and random affiliate links, peoplw Shopping there and watching my videos is good enough.
Maybe down the road I’ll take a hello fresh sponsor :p
Does ryzen 7 8845hs worth over 7745hs if it is cheaper
Which is cheaper, the 8845hs? It’s the same CPU just better tuned
Thanks , but in both of em temp went considerably high
mans cookin!
Hopefully cookin something good tho 😅
