Meh

A good multi-purpose laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace a ~7 year old Samsung that was taking too long to boot up and run through it's paces. Compared to that, this thing is fast! Once you turn it on it is ready to go. One small issue I've had (and seem to remember on my son's Lenovo) is the charging connector is a little flakey - you have to plug it in carefully or it doesn't seem to make good contact and start charging the battery. But I think I have it figured out. I'd really hate to return it and then have to reconfigure a new one....

Posted .Thank you for choosing the Lenovo Legion 5 15 Gaming Laptop. Regarding charging your Legion 5 15, if the battery level is above 50-percent when you plug the charger in, the power management settings will show Plugged In Not Charging in your Battery Level indicator. Unplug and let the battery level drop below 50-percent, plug in again and the battery will begin charging. This software prolongs the overall battery life.
