Aside from some background programs that use up the battery life pretty quick, this laptop it's solid. Inise it for video editing and animation but runs COD and The Finals really smoothly!

Was unsure how a laptop with a 4070 would hold up against my pc, but Geeze this laptop exceeded my expectations and the graphics quality is great. It plays GTA 5, COD, and RDR seamlessly.

Don't Use Geek Squad

The product is excellent. However I paid Geek squad to transfer my data from existing computer to the new computer and although they claimed to have succeeded they did not. I had to take the computer to an independent computer shop to accomplish the relatively simple task of transferring data between computers. Don't waste money on Geek Squad. The price of the computer was competitive with Lenovo website.

I purchased this laptop mainly for 4k video editing. My previous laptop only 2 years older simply could not handle the task. This laptop is mainly designed for gaming, however let me tell you it is a absolute powerhouse and handles 4k (drone footage and go pro) footage very well. Videos render flawlessly and I couldn't be happier. Go with Best Buy premium if you haven't all ready as the price matching guarantee already got me a $400 price match refund. First Lenovo, Loving it so far.

Little powerhouse

It’s a little powerhouse, great for gaming and school work, sometimes works better then my pc lol. The only complaint is the rgb keyboard is pretty low quality, but everything else is great quality. If you don’t care about epic gamer rgb effects then it’s a solid choice!

Its good for Adobe suite work (including after effects, premiere). The big issue with this laptop is the battery life. But it’s bearable since you can find power outlet nearly everywhere these days.

Never had a high end gaming/multimedia laptop before this, I did quite a bit of research before buying anything, but this was a solid choice and well worth the money spent! I can’t believe it has a 4070 RTX in it! It’s blazing fast compared to my old $500 vivo book laptop from 2018!!!

The 14900k on this is overkill for running Plex server in the background and the 4070 is good for medium duty mobile gaming and productivity. The screen being 2560x1600 means that the aspect ratio is uncommon in games and pixel count is higher than 1440p, dragging down the preset in more modern games if you want to max out the refresh rate. The default setup swaps tasks between the igpu and the 4070 pretty well, recognizing games as high power tasks and keeping 3d models on websites on the igpu. The massive amount of E-cores on the 14900HX also means that battery life is amazing (about 3.5 hours) while not slowing you down when doing light tasks. Lenovo has a lot of built in shortcuts for fan control, keyboard RGB control, and even one turned off by default in the BIOS for turning off all E-cores in case you want to ensure game tasks aren’t assigned to them in older games. This laptop is Amazing, just remember that the mobile 4070 is not equal to the desktop 4070.
