Nice and fast. Screen has good resolution for the size. Battery life is a bit overstated and could be better. First few times of general use and it lasted 3-4 hours. Keyboard has good action, though a bit tight. Nothing you can’t get used to after spending some time on it.

Thank you for choosing the Lenovo Legion Slim 7i 16 Gaming Laptop, model number 82TF000RUS. This model ships with a Integrated 71Wh, 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. To maximize battery life, switch your Power Management Settings to Hybrid Mode. Some additional tips for extending battery life between charges include: 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 you have questions about your Lenovo Legion Slim 7i 16 Gaming laptop, we recommend you contact Lenovo Legion Ultimate Care for additional information at: 888-278-9707.

I love this new Lenovo Gaming laptop. It is slim, sleek and lightning fast. The multicolored lighted keyboard is amazing. I also purchased a 15.6" laptop sleeve for extra protection. It fits the 16" laptop perfectly, with a little wiggle room. Great purchase and an awesome sale. I highly recommend!

Specifications are all accurate except battery life.
- Light laptop & easy to carry and use
- Max. brightness is enough for outdoor usage
- Case is good better than cheap plastic ones but worse than apple.
- Screen 16:10 ratio with 1920x1200 resolution is very suitable if you are using laptop for a work purposes
x I really hate its battery life, it can’t stand more than two hours. I can understand that it is user related but I’m not a gamer and I’m using it for browsing, research and Matlab. I fully charged it 4 times today as I don’t like keep using it while plug in AC.
x Touchpad and keyboard is a bit loudy when you click.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Very fast, reliable, and can handle multitasking as a breeze. I can record podcasts, do video editing, play games, and even surf the web without slowing down. This laptop is light and built well. Very sturdy and strong material. I really enjoy the back light multi color keyboard.

This machine is sleek and powerful. I dont care for flashy laptops with a ton of lighting, so i like the "professional" look of this laptop. Im not an expert on performance specs, but this machine does run Starfield on high settings with around 60fps so im happy with it.

This is my first gaming laptop. I decided to get rid of my xbox and move to a gaming laptop. I have been pleasantly surprised on how well it operates. I did upgrade the SSD by adding a 2tb card and removing 8gb ram replacing it with a 32gb ram for 40gb total ram.

Excellent Laptop! A tad bit thicker than the older legion slim but still not that noticeable. Battery is OK, lasts for 6-7h if not on gaming. High-quality build and GPU is plenty powerful for modern games.

Excellent laptop for gaming and office use. Runs better than my ASUS Zephyrus and much better than my last Alienware. Batter life is excellent but understandably out performed by the Zephyrus 14" however display, capabilities, and speed is better.

Functions really well on the things that I need to do. 3D printing, coding etc.. I upgraded to the maximum capacity of ram which is 24gb. One the best laptops I’ve ever had. It would have been the best if it’s a touch screen.
