Q: QuestionDoes the power cord connect via USB-C?(1 answer)
A: AnswerHi, thank you for your question. The included power adapter does not connect via USB-C, but rather its own unique power connector since it uses a 300W power adapter for maximum performance and that power isn't currently supported via Type C. You can use a USB-C charger in the USB-C port that supports Lenovo Power Delivery (PD) 140W. When doing intensive tasks, it's not recommended to use the USB-C charger as the system could draw more power than the lower wattage Type C charger can supply. Hope this helps!Answered by Lenovo Product Expert

Great Gaming Laptop
The Lenovo Legion Pro 5i 16 Gaming Laptop has great storage and more than enough memory for gaming, watching movies and general software usage. I enjoy the options for keyboard colors and periodically change them. Like most gaming laptops the battery life is not as good as a standard laptop, I am getting 3.5 hours with standard usage and 2.5 when gaming. Star Wars Outlaws came with the laptop and it is fun to play

Sweet deal
More reliably a gaming laptop, it runs the newest B06 at around 100-150fps, fortnite most of the time at 165 (near medium) settings. Runs a bit hot during intensive games. Battery will get test your ability to do any productivity tasks w/o being plugged in. Overall, great laptop for gaming, battery is sub-par buts its a gaming laptop....

Happy with this purchase!
Right out of the box, the casing is well built and seems will be highly durable over time. Runs very quietly even while pushing large programs and games. The RTX 4070 is sufficient, although I've heard people say jumping to the 4080 is worth the money. For our use though we haven't seen any drop in frame rates or lag and I don't plan to upgrade for a while. I love the backlit keys and layout...no issues with the battery or charging so far.
