Excellent choice
Performance The Lenovo Legion Slim 5 delivers impressive performance, powered by the Ryzen 5 7640HS processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 8GB graphics card. Whether you're gaming, streaming, or multitasking, this laptop handles it all with ease. The 16GB of RAM ensures smooth operation even with multiple applications running, and the 512GB SSD provides fast boot times and ample storage for games and media. Display The 16-inch WUXGA display is a standout feature, offering sharp and vibrant visuals. The high resolution ensures that games and videos look crisp, and the colors are rich and well-saturated. The display's refresh rate is smooth, making fast-paced games more enjoyable. Design and Build Quality Lenovo has crafted the Legion Slim 5 with a sleek and modern design. The Storm Grey finish gives it a professional look that is both stylish and understated. Despite being a gaming laptop, it maintains a relatively slim and lightweight profile, making it portable without sacrificing power. Keyboard and Trackpad The keyboard on the Legion Slim 5 is comfortable and responsive, with good key travel that is perfect for both gaming and typing. The backlighting is customizable, allowing you to personalize your gaming setup. The trackpad is smooth and precise, though most gamers will likely prefer using an external mouse for a better experience. Battery Life Battery life is often a concern with gaming laptops, and the Legion Slim 5 is no exception. While it performs admirably during gaming sessions, the battery life tends to be shorter under heavy use. However, for general productivity tasks, the laptop can last for a reasonable amount of time on a single charge. Ports and Connectivity This laptop offers a good selection of ports, including USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, and an audio jack, catering to various connectivity needs. The inclusion of Wi-Fi 6 ensures fast and reliable internet connectivity, which is crucial for online gaming and streaming. Cooling System The cooling system in the Legion Slim 5 is effective, keeping the laptop cool even during extended gaming sessions. The fans can get a bit loud under heavy load, but they do a good job of maintaining optimal performance without thermal throttling. Value for Money Considering its specifications and performance, the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 offers excellent value for money. It competes well with other gaming laptops in its price range, providing a balanced mix of performance, design, and portability. Conclusion The Lenovo Legion Slim 5 16" Gaming Laptop is a fantastic choice for gamers and power users who need a portable yet powerful machine. With its robust performance, high-quality display, and stylish design, it stands out as a top contender in the gaming laptop market. While the battery life could be better, and the fans can be noisy, these are minor drawbacks compared to the overall experience this laptop provides. If you're in the market for a gaming laptop that can handle both work and play, the Legion Slim 5 is definitely worth considering.

Fast and powerful
Great 16” laptop. The aspect ratio is 16/10. I didnt think this was going to male a difference, but in games the 16/10 makes the screen feel much bigger. I needed something for video rendering amd online gaming in my free time. This worried me a bit since I was coming from an i7 11th gen/3070 combo. But that laptop started to feel very slow after updating it to win 11. I saw this on a deal and thought to give it a try. The amd 7640 is better than expected and battery life is almost 3x better than the intel I was on. The 4060 does outperform my previous 3070 laptop. And I had a full power 3070 laptop. This cost less than half of what I paid for in the i7/3070 combo. I am on COD and Starfield most of the time and easily get over 100+ fps in both. If you need something more powerful I would go for the amd 7840 series cpu but I havent had any experience with that cpu. The ryzen 7640 is more than capable and getting this with the 4060 for under $900 was a steal. It has an rgb keyboard and the lenovo suite to control fan speed. I havent really seen the gpu go over 70c while gaming. That could be due to the amd cpu not being as hot as intel. Cpu stays cooler so it keeps the gpu cooler. If you see this for under 1k$ consider it.

Great value work rig! Perfect for what I needed.
I am rating this by value first, because price matters. I got this as an "open box" so on top of the sale price it was bright down further to a cool $750. Getting a 60 series GPU laptop 6 months after release for $750 with a decent CPU (also new) is kind of insane. The performance is great for the class and price. I'm VERY happy with it. I got it specifically for editing photo/video when away from my desktop and tethering for photo shoots. I DON'T use it for gaming BUT I did load Control on it and cranked the ray tracing and it was great, no lagging. I didn't check but I'm sure it was at least 60fps average. The ONLY downside is the screens color gamut. Very lacking but for my work flow, I just do color grades at home and plug my monitor in. But by then everything else is done so its still saving me TONS of time having a mobile editing/tethering rig. Battery life is ok not great at all but its a "slim gaming" form factor, that to be frank, isn't that slim. But given that, I wasnt expecting super long battery life anyway and (depending on what you're doing) t holds up just fine for me. Great value and very capable for most work applications. Plus, who doesnt love LED keyboards?
