Gaming Edge
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old laptop was way past her prime and slowing down. So I decided to purchase this new Legion gaming laptop so I would once again have the edge on the other players. The laptop is super fast. Not fond of the fact it does not have a CD-ROM drive. But you can install an external USB CD ROM drive.

Best intermediate gaming laptop on the market.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Impressive laptop! I watched hours of reviews and comparisons and settled on this one, I got it on sale for $950. My favorite features include the 2 ram slots, the 2 m.2 hard drive slots, built in mux switch and on the fly power settings. (Quiet, balanced, and performance) I love that you can change the keyboard lighting as well. Solid intermediate laptop you can throw just about anything at. I stretched its legs on quite a few games and was able to get 100+ frames on ultra settings on every game so far. War thunder was running at 280 frames on maximum settings.

New Laptop after 7 years as a pc desktop/iMac user
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent choice when on sale. RAM and Storage is upgradable. If heavy on video editing or 3d design might wanna grab the Ryzen 7 one.it handles my own workflow as graphic designer with no problems

Good laptop for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a good little laptop, but for my applications 16GB of ram wasn't enough so I bought a 32GB sodimm kit and a 1tb NVME drive to upgrade it. So now I have the same ram speed, but with an extra 16GB of memory and 1.512TB of storage instead of just 512GB which is nice. The aftermarket ram and storage upgrades together cost less than $200 and are super easy to do so long as you have the correct size bits. Anyway it runs really well, I do have a little stutter here when using more memory intensive applications but nothing too serious. Battery life is pretty good as well. My only real gripe would be the trackpad, it seems to lag even after adjusting the sensitivity.

Best laptop/pc
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is literally the best computer I’ve had, I literally Live stream, Play Games, and use the Web at the same time and have not seen it slow down literally at all! Besides that I have tabs open like vscode and it does not miss. If “Bang for your buck” was in the dictionary this laptop would be the definition, no Xbox or PlayStation could compare, literally this laptop does not miss anything it has speed, graphics, and storage. What else do you need?

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my new computer, switching from a MAC, so I was worried the transition would be difficult. The speed is perfect for the projects I work on. The screen is much better than NY MAC.

Great gaming laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had been looking for a powerful laptop for work when I stumbled on the Lenovo Legion Slim. I typically need something powerful for programming and the fact that it comes with an RTX 4060 is a great bonus. Most of the other laptops were severely underpowered in the ram area, but the Legion has 16GB and room for more down the line. I've run a few different games on it and the adjustable backlit keyboard comes in handy because it allows you to set up profiles. Overall it's a great laptop. My only ding is the 512 HD vs a 1TB drive.

Great dual purpose laptop.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great laptop for someone that needs the ability to run spreadsheets and occasionally game I do not game like other people so I will not speak to the merits of a dedicated gaming pc. This is a great laptop to allow people to have both a gaming laptop and a work computer for heavier computing power. The battery last much longer than advertised if you are using it for normal activities. Overall I am really happy that I picked this up at a good price.

Plays games at the highest settings. Lackluster Wi
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought on sale for $800 and I'm overall happy with the laptop. It was purchased for when I go out of town for work I had something to play. It will play just about anything on the highest settings in 1080p. I have a 4k home monitor but it doesn't bother me that it's in 1080p. My biggest complaint is the built in Wifi is not very good or stable. When I run tests it will strart out at 200mbs but then will drop to 20mbs. I don't have that issue with any other devices in my house.

Very nice despite its flaws
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lenovo (in general): Only one with builds and latest gen AMD Ryzen Laptop CPU/APU's thats NOT HP/Dell Decent build, when on sale, a decent price Lenovo (display): Really happy to see 16:10 aspect ratio RETURN, HOWEVER, the brightness of almost the entire lineup of laptops from lenovo cap out at 300nits which is HORRIBLE for a laptop, let alone a "gaming capable" laptop, if the rest wasn't a great combo/deal I wouldn't have purchased it, 450-500nits should be the minimum. nVidia: The 4060 is pretty under powered and is actually smothered in the "slim" lineup configuration, even so, its still better then all my old laptops so I will take it for under $1000 AMD (in general): The 7640HS I have actually outdoes my 4800H and 5800H prior gen CPU's with its 2 less cores in most of the work loads I throw at it (to include a compile) that's impressive. AMD (graphics): Here is where AMD really fouls up, must like first and second gen Ryzen laptop graphics, the drivers are a disaster, only from Lenovo dated the first quarter of the year, AND if you go to AMD's website and search for the drives it points you to the latest but when you try to install it says not compatible. Its been confirmed they removed compatibility but never bothered to fix the website! Very annoying for a fresh reinstall. Overall: Happy with the purchase, it was the right time, and the price war right.

Great laptop for the money
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive owned tbis laptop for a couple months and i game fairly hard on it and it handles all my games very well. Id your looking to play Call Of Duty on this laptop itll run it seemlessly. Im shre it can run a lot bigger games than just that. For the money, very worth it and the only con i can see is that theres not a whole lot of storege on it but thats fine because you can also upgrade the storge on it all you need to do is watch a youtube video and you can do it yourself at home with the right tools.
