    I bought this laptop for my grandson who has not put it down since receiving it. The laptop is easy to handle and made for gaming. There is plenty of room to load games. The graphics are great. I would recommend this to any age group.

    Purchased this since my Samsung screen cracked. The keyboard and touchpad feel great, but the screen warps when tilted back in share mode, and the backlighting at night is poor and gives glares at different angles. Returned for an open box Alienware deal, huge quality difference.

    This is my first Lenovo Legion. Great laptop. Fast processor, no issues playing games. I love the look of the laptop, the ability to change the colors back lit keyboard is a great feature. The fast refresh rate, 165 Hz is great on a 1920 x 1080 so smooth.

    Purchased this for my wife since she was starting school and loves light gaming. She loves this laptop. Fast enough for any productivity work she uses it for. Of course, battery life is subpar but this is a gaming laptop so to be expected.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo Legion 5 15 Gaming Laptop for your wife. This model ships with a Integrated 60Wh, Lithium-Polymer Battery, which within this model configuration, has a battery life of up to 6 hours, depending on the work the device is performing. If you are getting substantially less battery life, first, set your screen brightness at less than 100-percent - try 80-percent to start with. Then, be sure Battery Charge Threshold is turned off. This power management setting should only be used when the laptop is plugged in all the time. It will prolong overall battery life by only charging the battery to 60-percent of capacity. You can turn off Battery Charge Threshold within the Lenovo Vantage APP installed on this computer. In Vantage select Battery Settings and turn off Battery Charge Threshold, if turned on. Also check what programs are running in the background on the computer. Be sure only the programs you want running in the background are. These programs will drain the battery. Here is a link to information about how to find out what programs are running in the background on your Windows 11 computer and how to manage them for better system performance: https://websiteforstudents.com/how-to-find-what-is-running-in-windows-11/. Then, finally, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 11. Incompatible software will drain the battery at a faster rate. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom of your Windows 11 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Legion Ultimate Support for additional help at: 888-278-9707. Lenovo

    Great computer so far (about 2 weeks in) with a solid response time and great keyboard. Super bulky charger/cord is the reason a star wasn't given, but it is what it is. Hooking it up to a bigger monitor and office setup soon

    This PC is very powerful, but small enough to fit in my backpack. Battery life is okay for a gaming PC. My only complaint is that there is only 8GB RAM, and 2GB is used by Radeon graphics. I will be upgrading the RAM so this will not be an issue.

    It's fast and really good at gaming, the battery life it's pretty average and the display size is great for my developer needs. The only issue is that mine came with a little red dot on the display, it's not that visible but I'm worried that it can become a real issue.

    Powerful, lightweight, poor man’s Alienware style, gaming computer. Key sections can be customized with whatever colors you wish to set them to. All in all this computer runs great. The only issue I have run into is the cpu seems to get overheated, the cpu going into hibernation/standby mode at that time to force the system to regulate its temperature. This situational issue seems to only occur when the computer is running multiple Adobe programs simultaneously. Along with other memory draining software like chrome, and the oodles of Microsoft programs auto running, I’m not sure if this is a malfunctioning heat regulator, not triggering the fans to regulate the build up of heat, or if I need to adjust what applications are necessary to start Windows to minimize memory use from start.

      Please check the requirements and compatibility of the specific game you are playing (of the specific software you want to use). We recommend you check with the game's software publisher's web site for their compatibility with Windows Home 64-bit (Chrome, Android) operating system and the minimum/recommended hardware requirements (Is a Graphics card required, the processor speed and the minimum required system RAM and the minimum available hard drive space) to run their program, then compare those requirements to this system's configuration. You can also use Lenovo Smart Power to manually control fan and system performance: ( Fn + Q ) option to change the fan by undervolting the processor. If the issue continues, we recommend you call Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686. Lenovo

    A good Laptop at a fair price, could be much better if a higher memory will be included, games consume quite a bit so add a higher amount of memory will be great

    Love the Flip to Start option. Pretty solid but it does get somewhat loud at times. Get yourself another RAM stick and it's golden from that alone. I run FFXIV at 100+ FPS at times.
