  • Review of the Lenovo Legion Y530 - The best gaming laptop from Lenovo under $1000.
    Legion Y530 - amzn.to/2KhTWz1
    With thin bezels and good build quality, Lenovo has heavily improved their Legion laptop this year. It's less expensive than the Legion Y570 but retains the performance. This is the cheapest gaming laptop I've seen with thin bezels like this. Configurable with a GTX 1050 Ti and 8th gen Intel processors, performance is very respectable for current titles.

    NO MORE RED AND BLACK. YESSSSSSSSS. If you want a good looking gaming laptop on a budget, this should probably be on your short list. I think Lenovo crushed it this year. Anyone else love this design?

    You are from the ones making huge impact with your reviews. The manufacturers are watching this! Lenovo responded to the lack of the more powerful NVIDIA GTX 1060 GPU option despite as you mentioned "The Chassis can handle it and the thermals are good enough"... And they added it later on.

    I bought this laptop a month ago. It is AMAZING. Crossed shopped with MSI GS65 and GS63. Tried them all and ended up keeping this one. Made a sacrifice on video card specs, lowered graphics in SOME game (still look great, run at 60fps) but I got a more sturdy, well built laptop than MSI. No creaks, no flex, sturdy chassis, no worries. Also love the thin bezel screen that only $2000+ laptops have. No issues at all with heat, and the fans are quiter than the GS63 I tried. The best part is, I paid $1200 for this laptop for the SSD + 1TB HDD AND a 2 year on-site next day warranty with accidental protection. Peace of mind and all. Very, very pleased with this budget, entry level gaming laptop.

      @mylonelyweekend hey man. could you elaborate a little more on the battery issue people are having? It's not about battery length off the charger right? With the laptop plugged in, no problems whatsoever. When un-plugged, like most gaming laptops, the performance gets throttled and battery last maybe 3-4 hours max realistically. I am out of school now so this is OK but maybe something to consider? Let me know if you have any more questions about the laptop

    • @usaf2011
      @usaf2011 6 лет назад +16

      mylonelyweekend Or maybe I misunderstood. Do some users have an issue with the laptop saying its not charging when it's plugged in? If this is it - I messed around with some Lenovo battery settings and one of them is something like "Conservation mode" keeps the battery around 50% charge to help prolong life of battery. I turned it off and it charged to 100% just fine

    Man after a year of using this thing. I could not be happier. I have three screens running on this thing [laptop, 21:9 (3440x1440)@100hz, (1080p)], and it handles it like a champ. As a programmer and someone who really uses a lot of resources... this thing is amazing. Some mods I made is that I added a 500 nvme and 500 gb ssd with 16gbs of ram in total. The i7 and 1050ti really can handle any load I throw at it and it is nice that I don't have to close any programs. For example, I can run my Virtual Machine (6 gbs dedicated and 4cores) and android studio and no hiccup. Granted the fans can be a bit loud, but nothing that distracts me. I wish there was fan control that instead of fans kicking in every once and a while I can have something that is more continuous but tolerable.

    Hi i have been using the most basic version of this product. It is quite an impressive machine for its price. The screen is actually as bright as other Lenovo laptops but it doesn't appear bright because the screen is matte. Lenovo needs to bump up the brightness a little bit.
    Also, this is more of a content creation laptop than a gaming one. Works great with premiere pro, Photoshop, Keyshot (3D rendering software) and ofc all other 3D softwares.
    The screen can also give you a headache at times. I just use to on night mode all the time. Its helps with reducing the blue light.

      The reason I got the Lenovo laptop is because I've been using the Thinkpad at work for years and the build quality is great. I feel the same about this one too. Very underrated laptop and it needs more exposure! As the reviewers mentioned that the color accuracy is not perfect but if you're not into visual editing, it doesn't matter. Movies look great and I love the thin bezel. MSI has an IPS level display and this has an IPS display. They keyboard too is great but its from edge to edge so you can't hold the laptop there while picking it up. Heating issues are the same as ANY other laptop with this specs and since it has an opening in the bottom for the two fans, yes, cooling fans can help. I don't want to do any testing for it but I'm sure the heat is expected and in limits. What I love is the number of connectivity options and most of them being in the back! Both of them are great laptops. I chose this because of their history making solid laptops and I don't like the red colors or RGB. I want a silent killer and this looks like one :)

      is the keyboard backlit through the keycaps? i mean, can u see the letters in total darkness? i use black themes on all my software (chrome, IDE, video player, document editor, etc) so without backlight, i have to rely on the screen's white to see the letters...

    lenovo recently launched this laptop with gtx 1060. so plz make a video about it. about its thermal performance and comparision with others. because this laptop seems really nice and i5 gtx 1060 model is available for around 900 usd.

      Yepp, and the 1060 model is offered with the 144Hz screen, which should go up to 300 nits. Has anyone found a review, checking if that one really delivers 300 nits?

      Seems like great value for the money though, design aesthetics are pretty usual, and it seems sturdier than the Dell G series since it's reinforced with steel. Not to mention the thin bezel display. That's what really got my attention.
