Good size and weight. Decent price (got on sale) plays space marines 2 with mostly high settings without issue. Not much bloatware, all of which was easy to remove.
Free copy of wu Kong was a nice perk.

Great components, not that Legion makes them anyway. That's pretty much where great stops. There's no visible speakers, although it does have in-case speakers that are terrible. The body is also made of a cheap plastic, and mine chipped upon impact. It's purely cosmetic and still useable, just annoying. I traded in my MacBook for this computer, which would've just had a scratch or dented upon similar impact... Overall I'd pick a different brand with lesser parts just for a tad higher build quality. Oh and the battery life stinks. Lasts an hour on eco mode with very low brightness, back-lit keyboard turned off, and running off of integrated graphics.

Hi, BrianP69, thank you for choosing Lenovo! To try to resolve this, try uninstalling and reinstalling Lenovo Vantage. This should resolve any bugs with the Legion Spectrum RGB controller software within Vantage.
