Best Buy
bestbuy.7tiv.n... - Core i7 RTX 3060
bestbuy.7tiv.n... - Ryzen 6800 RTX 3050 Ti
bestbuy.7tiv.n... - This is the Legion Slim 7. So it's not the Legion 5, but I have it now and really impressed with it
This review is really well done! I like your conversational style when going over the laptop - good vibes!!
Thanks man. That's what I'm going for.
Great job from Lenovo, it’s nice to have other brands for competition! Can’t wait for Asus scar 17SE review and comparison!
I had to send back the scar 17 unfortunately. It wasn't performing as it should and I couldn't get in touch with her right people at Asus
Love this laptop, I plug into a bigger display at home for photo editing and color grading. Other than that it does everything really well for me. A card reader would be a nice addition.
I do the same for color critical work. It's an awesome machine
A external monitor?
I'm torn between the legion 5i pro i7 rtx 3070 and the Ryzen 9 Rtx 3070ti , both at the same price of 1750 dollars,
It's mainly for work and Data processing.
What do you advise me ?
Man I’m getting so many questions about those 2 specific configurations. I might have to do dedicated videos. Intel works better for data processing but AMD is fine. I would want to go with the 3070 ti though. And the ryzen will get you better battery.
I saw the following specs for the new legion 7i Gen 7 screen: 16″ mini-led, WQXGA (2560 x 1600) IPS, 1250 nits, beeldverhouding van 16:10, vernieuwingsfrequentie van 165Hz (responstijd van 3 ms), 100% DCI-P3, 100% Adobe sRGB, tot VESA DisplayHDR™ 1000-certificering, Dolby Vision®-ondersteuning, TÜV Rheinland®-certificering => would be a killer laptop with this screen
Damn. I haven’t seen that in the US. Yeah that would be game over for any other laptop brand lol
You must not trust TÜV Rheinland as to flicker-free certification though.
@@consumertechwarehouse Ofcourse no availability at this moment
Such a great job on this review thanks!
Another great review! Thanks... I'm waiting for the Legion 7i HX but as you stated the screen is bright but only srgb
Yep. Big bummer for me. I have a ge67 coming in tomorrow with a 12800hx and can’t wait to test that one. I had a scar 17 se but never did anything on it because I think it was defective
@@consumertechwarehouse Is this the one with the 240Hz Oled panel? I heared it would be brighter than the previous Oled panels... Very curious about that screen.
It is. I’m very curious too. I’ll push out a video as soon as I can. Want to wrap up the duo review first though
@@consumertechwarehouse please try that oled laptop with minecraft rtx
I got it in. I’lol run some tests
THIS IS THE BEST REVIEW ON THIS LAPTOP
Lenovo Thinkpad has the best keyboard I've ever used in a laptop. I actually use the nub often. The high quality business look of a Thinkpad translates to their Legion, it seems. The microcenter near me has the AMD version of this Legion 5 Pro Gen 7. 3070TI, 32GB. Should I go for it for $1900? I think I have it down to this laptop and a mobile duex max secondary screen (review that if you have time, it attaches to the back of the laptop with magnets), or the Asus DUO 16 with 3070TI (which is $3500!).
One thing I forgot to point out is the travel is shorter than a think pad but the layout is the same as most of them. I’ll check out the duex max at some point. Looks interesting 🤨. Man under $2000 for a legion 5i pro? You sure it’s not the 3070 with the ryzen 5900 or 5800?
@@consumertechwarehouse Yep, it's the 3070TI, 6800H, 32GB DD5, 1 TB for $1900 + tax. Guessing it's the AMD GEN 7 which isn't even for sale on Leonvo's site yet. Confusing!
Yeah I was just about to say that configuration isn't available anywhere else yet. I really wish I had a Microcenter near me. Actually I don't. I wouldn't have any money anymore
@@elmalloc i dont know if u got it yet , but that laptop with 16 ram is 1400$ in ebay rn before taxes
Great job!
Will you do a review on the 7i & 7i slim? Just concerned about the thermals on the i9 12900 before I get one. Still debating between the legion 7 and the Rog zep duo 16.
I absolutely will as soon as I can get one. They're both awesome. I mean the legion 7 from last year at least. I absolutely loved it. But the screen on the duo 16 is really just something special once you don't mind the drawbacks of mini LED
Hi man great review, I was looking into getting the exact same Legion 5i Pro or the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15 - Ryzen 9 6900HS - RTX 3080 - 32 GB - 1TB SSD (but this one is 800$ more expensive). I will use the machine mainly for gaming and browsing/coding while I'm travelling, but I couldn't make the choice yet.
On one hand, 5i Pro has a better screen (more brightness)/better temperatures and performance in gaming, but is bigger/heavier+ bigger charger + not so good trackpad.
On the other hand G15 has a better battery life/it's slimmer/smaller charger/very nice keyboard layout+trackpad but it gets super warm/hot (so worse thermals), has only 300nits brightnessbut is also 800$ more expenive.
Which one would you choose? Of course this can be very subjective but I would like to hear another opinon.
Thank you and keep up the good work!
Man the moment you said traveling I would steer you towards the g15. I've done lots of traveling with the legion last year and this year, and while it's doable, it makes your backpack really really heavy. With the g15, I would recommend the 3070 or 3070 ti model due to the lower wattage unless you need 32gb of RAM. And if you're concerned about the screen, have you considered the m16?
@@consumertechwarehouse Thanks for the fast reply. I was looking into the m16 but I think it has other flaws (I can't remember them now haha). I know the difference between i5 Pro and G15 on weight section is just 1kg but it's nice to hear someones else experience with this.
BTW thanks for the G15 graphic card recommendation, I'm just not sure if the G15 is worth 800$ more, if the only difference is 1kg in weight, that's why I'm also stuck in making a decision.
Also maybe a small note:
Legion 5i PRO 2022 is around 1400$ in my country, and the G15 from above is 2200$, that's the 800$ difference.
Yeah that's a really big difference. I have an m16 that I never reviewed and I really like it. If you're saving $800 definitely to for the legion
Awesome video! You answered all of my questions! Thanks! I'm going for it! I find a Legion 5i Pro with 12700h 16ram 1tb and 3070 for 1845. The price is with taxes! What do you think?
Thanks. There’s some sick deals on the legion 5 now and definitely a no brainer
You mentioned it is not your choice for creative work you do. What laptops would you choose for that? MacBook Pro?
Yeah if you're not gaming then I definitely recommend a MacBook pro. If you want windows, the m16 would be a good option. And the legion is still good for creators. I just really like to have the higher color gamut
Hi man, i really apreciated your review!, im currently wtb legion pro 2022 version,but im confused which one is the overall best for my needs, im an architecture students using CAD programs 2d's & 3d modelling, sketchup, enscape, lumion etc.
And my overall choice is Legion 5 pro 6800h amd version with 3070 8gb tdp 150, vs the intel version 12700h
The amd version had an upgrade to 64 gb of ddr5 4800mhz ram with 1900$ , and the intel one is 16gb ram 2000$, which one is the best overall?
Im confused cause the intel one has a better performance in so much reviewer.
Lookinh forward to your answer tysm
Sorry for non fluent english
Yep. Intel performs better in this case especially for your application. Go with intel and you can upgrade the RAM if you need to
Just picked one up from walmart, it was $1.6k for the 3070ti 150w version, couldn't say no.
Damn! That’s a steal! I had to sell mine used for that price
Ha, same here, $1599 at Walmart. Arrives tomorrow so excited. Looking for a 2nd charger for the work office, 300w bricks are f'n expensive.
My favorite gaming laptop is a Razer Blade 15 advanced 4k oled 2080 super I love it I’ve had it for like a year or two and am waiting until the 4080 laptop gpu comes out to replace it
I’ve had that one other razer laptops for a while too. I love them as well. I right now have a 15 with the 4k 144 hz that I’m going to do a video on soon
Great review. Subscribing!
Hey bro can i go for the lenovo legion 5i pro i7 11th rtx 3070 coz the new legion 5i pro i7 12th with rtx 3060 is out of stock in india 🙂should i wait for the rtx 3070 version of 2022 or should i buy the 11th gen i7 3070 is there any performance gap btw love from india…❤️
There's a bit of a difference. I did a video comparing the 3060, 3070 ti and 3080 ti on the duos. I would expect the 3070 to perform somewhere between the 3060 and 3070 ti. But yeah, I would rather go for the 3070 11th gen legion over the 12th gen 3060 version
@@consumertechwarehouse ok then i am going for the 11th gen 3070 .is there any date about when the legion 7i 2022 launches bro?
Hi! I am between this model or the 2021 RTX 3070 model. The price difference in Canada is $300 (About 220 USD). Do you think the improvements of the 2022 (+ extra 1TB Storage) worth those extra $300?
In my opinion, if your budget allows, then yes. The 3070 ti is a bit of an improvement and the extra storage helps since games are getting bigger and bigger, they’ll require even more storage
Great review, i know its a bit late but if you still have it would you mind creating a vbios backup with gpuz and share it?Thank you in advance
I don’t have the laptop anymore sorry. Careful with loading the vbios on other laptops though. Just go on Reddit and see if lots of people have success with your particular device before doing it
The AMD variant has significantly better battery life at -5 to 14% performance loss at different TDPs
Yeah. And that might be worth it to a lot of people. Me included.
Really dont care about battery life in a gaming laptop.
brother i am planning to get the legion 7 2021 5800h 3070 but also consfused at the legion 5 pro 3070ti 6800h since they are same price in my country. But i really like the legion 7 from 2021. so what do you think can u give me some advise
If they're the same price, the 3070 ti is better.
i like this laptop and im thinking to buy it but i wish it was smaller 15 inch and be more lighter and thin.
There is 15 inch variant in Australia
Still waiting on that duo 16 review
Next video. Coming soon
friend, between this notebook and the AlienWare m15 r7 3070 ti, what would be the best option for games, taking into account the temperature of both and other aspects?
They’re both amazing. I spent a good amount of time with the m15 and the x17 and found them both to be great. I think the m15 might be better than the legion 5i unless you prefer a 16 inch.
@@consumertechwarehouse Thanks for the answer
Please do a review of 2022 Lenovo Legion 7i Gen 7 3070ti!
Will do a review
If I upgraded this to 32gb ram would it be okay for editing 4k footage?
The issue is more the vram which is built into the gpu. It may not help that much upgrading. You should still be able to run lots of games at 4k though with the 3070 ti
Oh read this wrong. 4k editing. I do just fine editing 4k footage in premiere pro with 32gb. But there’s a good amount of benefit going to 64gb. And get the fastest the laptop will allow. I know it may cost more upfront, but you’ll get that back in time
@@consumertechwarehouse what about for content creation for social media and RUclips, working with 4k footage do you think this would be suitable, or should I buy an alienware m16 i9....
What about the speakers ? I noticed they are weak and not loud at all
Yeah they aren’t good at all unfortunately. The legion 7 has substantially better speakers
is it worth this laptop to buy at price of 2350 CAD? November 2022
Relative to US prices that’s good
Hey man, I want to ask for an advice. I’ve always had Macs since 2011 and never had a Windows laptop, I wanted to get one for gaming what would be an “entry level gaming laptop” that you can recommend to me, I don’t want to go and get crazy with 3080tis coz I’m still not familiar with Windows, Budget is around $1000-1500. TIA.
Hey depends on the size of the MacBook you had. If you’re ok with a 14 inch laptop my easiest go to is the Rog g14 2022. Might be a bit higher than your budget but you can get a used one for that price. You’re not going to get MacBook build at that price but it’s an excellent start
@@consumertechwarehouse I appreciate your response man. I’m actually considering the G14 I saw an openbox from bestbuy before for $1280 but I wasn’t sure because I’ve read that the G14 gets very hot, is that true?
Yeah. In a way that’s how it is on the windows side. I wasn’t too bothered by the thermals though when I had mine for the review period. Also you can plug it into a usb c charger and you’ll still be able to game but with les frames but also less heat
I like the flat model designed more like the Legion Y540 mann its so yummy, but the 5i pro skin is very sweet Jesus with naked eyes.
M8 can you review the scar 17 with the i9 and 3070ti ?
I’ll try to get one
You should have cleaned the table....to your left.
Hahaha can't disagree there. Improvements for the future
why u dont compare it with 7i gen 7
I had them at different times. Would have loved to
I am a little worried about the Up arrow key, which seems a bit smaller. What has been your experience - does this annoy you?
I don’t think it is. Or maybe I haven’t noticed? Either way no I use the arrow keys a lot when in excel and don’t remember having any issues
My other question about Legion keyboards concerns the caisson. Suppose the palms rest on the surface when typing. Does the edge of the caisson hurt or is it otherwise inconvenient?
It’s bigger than razer blade’s 17, you should be fine!
Did your cpu throttle during cinebench r23?
Yeah but it was mostly maxing out the performance. The only laptop I tested that doesn't throttle is the zephyrus duo 16
I was able to get a unit from Walmart on sale for $1599.99, but I'm having a hard time getting past 2 hours on battery. Not sure why since I'm on IGPU, 60Hz, 35% brightness and no backlight on the keyboard. I'm fearing it's maybe stuck in DGPU mode even though Nvidia Control Panel is showing it's in Optimus. Weird thing is that I tried changing the GPU mode on Vantage and it doesn't ask me to restart the PC like your unit. Weird.
I have no idea man. What tasks are you doing? That's strange. Usually the fool proof way to make sure you're in optimus is to look at Nvidia control panel so I'm sure you are. Some task might be causing the drain. Check the battery settings to see if you can spot the app?
@@consumertechwarehouse I'm just running a 10hour RUclips video and I can never get to 2 hours. I set the battery power mode to Best Efficiency and the laptop to silent mode, but I still get the same results.
I also monitored the background processes thru task manager, and I don't see anything that would be causing the battery to drain so fast.
I got tired of playing around and I performed a clean install last night. I'm going to try again today without installing all the Lenovo stuff since you don't really need it.
On another note... I noticed that you have the legion 7i and 5i, can you check when you get a chance if the larger battery on the 7i will fit into the 5i? I wouldn't mind getting the 99Whr battery for the 5i Pro if it fits.
I no longer have the legion 5i. But I won't recommend that though. Even if it does fit, there might be other issues like thermals. Batteries need to be cooled too if not they can sell or worse explode. I know the legion 7 has much better thermals than the legion 5. I don't know for sure, but there's definitely a risk there. Maybe see if you can get a replacement. Lenovo has good customer service if you can't get one from Walmart
@@consumertechwarehouse Bummer, I wanted to see if the only difference is the size of the battery. I may have to give Lenovo a call. I know the Slim 7i has different battery sizes for the same unit, I'm hoping the smaller battery in the 5i pro is just a cost saving measure. I had the AMD advantage 7 a few weeks ago but sent it back because I wanted a unit with Gsync and Advance Optimus.
Besides battery life, my unit is working flawlessly, amazing Benchmarking results too. Not that much off from the 7i with similar specs (only difference is 2 more power cores on the HX) which I already had ordered thru Lenovo but canceled it this week since I was saving 1K with the 5i pro. I may be regretting that a bit now. Anyway, thanks for your response!
Oh man. For $1k savings the 5 is a better move
Is this better then legion 7 3080 but gen 6 ?
The legion 7 is an overall better machine from a hardware standpoint. So yeah I would rather get the legion 7 overall even with a 3080
This vs the scar 3070ti ?
Maybe this depending on price and what type of display you prefer. But I think this is overall a better machine
@@consumertechwarehouse damn that says alot . I was dead set on the QHD scar 3070ti . I guess I'm going to have to look into the 5i pro
I don’t want to steer you away. The scar is still really awesome. I’ve reviewed it and had one as my daily driver for a long time last year. The scar has a per key rgb keyboard, bolder design, and a bit smaller. If you’re set on the scar go for it. Performance wise they’re nearly identical
@@consumertechwarehouse 🙏 thank you
Hey man!! Does this 3070 ti model has 150W TGP?
Yes it does.
@@consumertechwarehouse thanks for your reply. Does this vary with region too? In my region (Germany) it is mentioned 125w on their website but i am not sure if they have included the dynamic boost or not
Oh that’s interesting. I know it’s 150 watts tgp with dynamic boost. Maybe the 125 watts listed is the base? I won’t know for use if it’s different by region.
@@consumertechwarehouse in UK also it's shows the same .. i think in some places they haven't included the dynamic boost
It should not vary for different regions
Hi,
I'm new in your channel and i really like your contents, keep it up !
I need a advice for gaming experience,
For the same price and the same spec in my region,
I have the choice between:
Msi ge66 3070ti and Legion 5i Pro 3070ti,
What is your advice ?
Thx for helps guys.
They’re both good laptops but I think the legion might be overall better. Taller 16 inch screen that’s bright, plus you’re getting gsync. On top of that you’re getting better software support from Lenovo. The ge66 has per key rgb if that’s important to you, and depending on the display, 240hz vs 165hz but that’s it that I can think of
@@consumertechwarehouse
I will go for the L5P for the 16:10 and like do you said for the support software.
Really thanks you for your advice.
Have a good day.
Link for the laptop?
are you in the US?
Yup
3:25 Can someone confirm if the laptop inside/palm rest/deck is plastic??
I've seen several reviews where they say it's metal: ruclips.net/video/LH3_XcKjL50/видео.html
Jarrod also leaves the impression it's an Aluminum and Magnesium chassis ruclips.net/video/xK1HbpUoxyE/видео.html
Or maybe there are different versions of the laptop for different markets
It’s definitely plastic
Got this laptop for free from a giveaway!
Nice. Definitely worth it since it was free lol
Love your content . Get better thumbnail
Any suggestions for improvement on thumbnails? I put a decent amount of work into them but I don’t think it’s resonating well on RUclips.
someone gift me this laptop 😭
