Lightning Fast!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am so glad I took a chance on this. I've always had HP or Dell. This set up is amazing. I use it for my office. I usually would take about 10 minutes to back up my daily work and this does it in about 2.5 minutes! Opening and closing is fast and I just am really impressed with this machine. I've had it over 2 weeks now and am really pleased with it. I highly recommend this computer!

I would recommend this to a friend 4 months of light use and charger won't stay in
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, it's a great computer. The charger gets VERY hot, but I have the laptop on my desk 95% of the time so it's not an issue but... The charger cord is no longer staying in. I've used the computer maybe 10 times not on my desk, and it's never traveled outside my home. But the charging cable is very wobbly, and, as a gamer, when the charge isn't on, my FPS drops to unplayable state. This is not acceptable. The included charging cable and the port need to be re-thought to be more stable and secure. I can't stand that now I have to try to see if a new cord will work, considering how expensive they are. I should be able to trust that the included power cord can withstand at least 6 months of moderate wear, not just 4 months of extremely light wear.

The best choice of midrange gaming laptop IMO
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop does not have that gamer-look compares to the Acer Helios which also is a midrange gaming laptop, but the Legion can get the things done. No problems with AAA title games FPS over 60, I have the 144hz display which is much better. When playing games with fully loaded, the fans are not too loud (acceptable range) but can get the works done well, it’s much quieter then the acer.

Runs hot (ended up returning)
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Without undervolting, It will easily hit +90c in just a cpu intensive workload(cinebench). The fans run loud expecially if you are playing multiplayer or cpu intensive games. Otherwise the laptop looks very nice and clean.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally was ready to buy a new laptop and went for a gaming laptop for light gaming and work use. I must have looked at every single laptop on this website and based on reviews and price. Get this laptop before it sells out! I was looking at dell and Alienware and razor and MSI and you will not be disappointed by this laptop. I have no issues with it and I love it.
I would recommend this to a friendFast laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Enjoy the large screen. Fast processing speed is good for large spreadsheets. 16GB memory is minimum that I'd ever buy. Only drawback is that 1TB solid state drive is a single drive vs the dual drive that I had on my previous Lenovo. On the expensive side however.
