    Thermals was a great factor for me so I'm glad you said it doesn't get too hot on this one.

    Dave, I came back here just to say thank you for the amazing review. I finally bought the Legion 5 Ryzen 5, RTX 2060 version last week. This thing is really bang for the bucks! Awesome screen, great performance, also great cooling! The GPU temperature stays at 75 degree even after long session of gaming. It is just a very good gaming laptop for the money. Some people doesn't like the design tho, but for me personally it is a very subtle look with iridescent Legion branding and I love it.

    Mad respect to Lenovo for building their gaming laptops to almost the same quality as their Mil-spec business/enterprise class laptops.

As it should be for the price you pay (*cough* Intel Macbooks)

    So glad I found this channel! - I wanted to come back on this after 6months owning a Legion 5 AMD 5 144hz.
    pros - extremely quiet fans, handles thermal brilliantly, friendly UI with Lenovo Vantage, FPS on gaming is always consistent
    cons - speakers (But guess that's an issue with laptop speakers in general lol)
    One thing I wish to highlight as a MUST is please please purchase the premium/ADP support - within the first 2weeks I damaged my LCD screen and with those support packages they managed to send a onsite engineer to replace my screen fixed at my location!
    Customer service for Lenovo is impeccable!

      fans noise on this laptop is really underrated. they are quiet when gaming imo and the speakers, well, they are okay to me because I game with speakers nowadays instead of headsets. Also the screen looks very flimsy, but that's fine. I use a monitor anyways. Really good laptop imo.

  • @ravipeiris4388
    @ravipeiris4388 3 года назад +8

    Thank you for your insights. Regarding the hinge issue on previous Legion products, it has more to do with the plastic base under each hinge which is supposed to anchor the hinge. But due to structural weaknesses of each plastic base due to torsional forces coming through the screen, those forces ended up unseating the plastic base under each hinge, thereby de-stabilizing each respective hinge. Fortunately, that issue has been rectified in the mid-2020 version of the Legion 5.
    I've referred to this and your other videos on other gaming notebooks and just purchased the Legion 5 with the AMD processor.

      RUclips isn't his main and only job, so he can choose to prioritize viewers over greediness.
      This is one of the reason I like his channel and rolled my eyes when people keep asking him if he is or if/when he will become a full-time RUclipsr.
      When RUclips is your primary income, you're more incentivized to optimize for more revenue. You have to appeal to "the algorithm" and monetization rules in addition to normal rules. It's kind of like selling your soul to RUclips.

The line between gaming and normal laptops is just a better display and a great graphics card. Just go check out the Predator Helios 300 2019 model on Flipkart.

      Rey Joson if you do go for the legion the build of it feels very well built and very durable, i think the only con i can think of the legion build is that the hinge comes wrapped in some sort of plastic, not sure if it’s supposed to be like that or taken off, but it’s pretty unnoticeable, i only saw it because over time the corners of the wrap starts to peel back a bit, but it’s pretty hard to take off, i gave up trying to. other than that i don’t think there is anything else i ran into.

But the main issues that I encountered on these machines are the low color accuracy and the price. Some color accurate gaming laptops are way out of my budget.

Great review... but I would add that this gaming laptop is a great workhorse. 4k editing. It manages my Insta360 (5.7k footage well) I game AND stream on this rig without performance issues. COD Warzone plays on this like a dream while handling OBS, and streaming. IF it could make my coffee I think it would manage to do so. Anyone considering this laptop should absolutely take the plunge! I do recommend a cooling pad to go with it. It does get warm!

    I just bought this today at Best Buy. Good build quality, and I love the sturdiness and smoothness of the hinge. Haven't played any games with it yet, but I'll update during the week.

      @@sedenyavuz9656 So I've had this laptop for a few days now. It does get very hot when gaming, so I would suggest a cooling pad, which I'm getting from Amazon, but it should be fine if you don't actually game on your lap. The trackpad is what you would expect, it's smooth and responsive, especially with the refresh rate of the screen which puts my old 2016 HP to shame. The keyboard is nice and sturdy, satisfying to type on. My version came with programmable RGB through Lenovo Vantage. I'll update with more thermals when I test it more, but so far so good!

      Another update, I've had this laptop for two years now. Still running strong after two years of daily use. It does get hot at times, so I would suggest keeping it elevated, but still runs most modern games at high settings.
