Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love the laptop. Great performance and value. After the intial driver updates thing ran great. Battery life isnt the best though.

It runs amazing but the battery life is kind of short and cpu sometimes heats up alot so down volting may be required if using it for a heavy load

I picked up the Lenovo LOQ 15.6" Gaming Laptop for $649.49 during Black Friday, and it’s been a strong performer for the price. The i5‑13450HX and RTX 5050 handle modern games well at 1080p/144 Hz, and the build quality and Luna Grey finish feel solid and clean. The downsides are noticeable: the battery drains quickly, even with light use, and Lenovo Vantage freezes randomly and feels heavy, which is frustrating since it’s essential for core performance settings. With better battery optimization and software stability, this could easily be a 5‑star machine. One more thing to note: 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD are pretty minimal for a 2025 gaming/work laptop. They function as intended for now, but storage fills up fast and future‑proofing would benefit from upgrades. I’d recommend planning for more RAM and additional storage if you want to get the most out of this system long‑term. For those reasons, I am rating it as 4 stars which is more than fair.

I’ve been using the Lenovo LOQ 15.6" Gaming Laptop for a few weeks, and overall I’m very happy with it. The Intel Core i5-13450HX and RTX 5050 combo handle everyday tasks smoothly, and it performs well in games at medium to high settings. The 16GB of memory also makes multitasking quick and responsive. The Full HD screen looks sharp, and the colors are good for gaming and streaming. The laptop stays fairly cool during use, though the fans can get a bit loud during heavier games. The 512GB SSD is fast, but it may fill up quickly if you install multiple large games, so keep that in mind. Build quality feels solid, and the Luna Grey finish looks clean and modern. Overall, this laptop offers strong performance and good value for a mid-range gaming machine. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable gaming laptop without spending too much.

The laptop is quite good if you buy it at a promotional price. I consider it a top option for the money. Pros: a high-quality display — of course, it’s not OLED and not on the level of a MacBook screen, but it’s still quite good. Build quality is solid: the laptop is well assembled, nothing creaks or flexes, and the plastic feels high quality. Excellent performance for this price. Fairly good cooling and quieter than competitors in this price category. Cons: screen brightness — sometimes it’s not bright enough, especially if the room is very well lit or if you’re sitting near a window. Battery life — I’m not sure this can even be considered a downside; you just need to understand that with this kind of hardware, long battery life is simply not possible.

After having the laptop for about a month, I would say that this product has been fine. With close to no experience with laptops before, my opinion may not be valid but I do nonetheless have one. The specs of the laptops are great, and it does run great for video games. However there are two major “issues” that I’ve experienced so far. They include, short battery life and the laptop prioritizing the integrated graphics card over the dedicated graphics card upon initialization of the computer. To be more specific, the short battery life (two hours with no power optimization and your using the dedicated graphics) is however expected due to the hefty/high performance parts of the laptop. Second, the prioritization of the integrated graphics displayed ghosting when browsing and gaming which seemed very odd for me. To conclude this review, I would only recommend this laptop to people who are looking to have good to great gaming performance and browsing at home. If your usually around outlets or just electricity then you’ll be fine, however if your not, I would not recommend.

This laptop is definitely a worthwhile purchase. It has enough performance out of the parts in it and is able to be upgraded with bigger storage and more RAM if desired. The ease of which you can switch between operating modes from quiet to performance is also a plus and it isn't too showy like lots of other gaming laptops. The battery life is fairly short when utilizing the dedicated GPU but if you put it in hybrid mode and only use the iGPU when not gaming it does last a bit longer. The laptop also isn't too heavy or bulky, the screen is a good size, the panel looks good, and the camera quality of the built in camera is good. Good purchase, especially on sale.

I bought this during Black Friday Sale for a great price. But as some know, manufacturers often use b-stock components specifically in their holiday models and for me it was the QLC 512GB SSD that was throttling and overheating this laptop to a crawl. I've had mini PCs with lower specs that ran smoother. The SSD couldn't sustain big download files (writes) like games on Steam if you have fast wifi or directly via ethernet. Once the SSD's virtual cache fills, it has to empty which cause Steam downloads to drop to 0Mbps momentarily, and this constant refreshing will overheat the drive, thus computer. The solution is to cap your download speed in Steam which is unfortunate. The other solution is to add/replace the SSD itself with a TLC SSD for your Steam library (or any large file writing). Some good though, I felt the trackpad is a tad better than the one in the Legion 5 15.1" and the speakers too. 1080p is good enough, not as sharp as 3K when you're doing regular PC tasks, but when gaming it's not noticeable. RTX 5050 is more than enough for 1080p gaming! But I don't chase max FPS, I prefer a solid 60fps with quiet fans which is achievable on this laptop and 5050. I think the CPU is 2 generations old? But really any CPU within the last 5 years is solid. Conclusion, great budget gaming laptop when on sale! But I'd reconsider at retail price.

I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. From the moment I started using it, everything exceeded my expectations. The performance is fast and smooth, making it perfect for both work and everyday use. The design is sleek and modern, and the build quality feels solid and premium. Battery life is excellent and easily lasts through the day without any issues. The screen is clear, bright, and comfortable for long hours of use. Setup was quick and simple, and everything worked perfectly right out of the box. Overall, this product offers outstanding quality for the price. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for reliability, great performance, and excellent value. I would definitely buy it again without hesitation.

It’s a great entry-level gaming PC for beginners like me. The price is just right. My only issue was the battery draining a little quickly, but aside from that, it’s an excellent starting point for someone new to PC gaming. It’s also perfect for students or professionals who want a versatile PC for both work, school, and gaming.

Great laptop for school and for games. runs everthing so smooth. The one downside is the battery life but that was expected with high task programs.

Absolutely love this!! Perfect for all my school needs and when I'm not studying, perfect for gaming with friends. In all honesty, I only play Overwatch on here but it handles it with no issues. I've never had an issue with this but I also haven't ran anything other than the game while playing. With how much I use the laptop in general, the batter is typical but can last for 1.5 - 2 hours even while researching and having a bunch of tabs and apps open. Overall, my personal experience is that this is a great laptop for someone who is primarily focused on typical laptop functions with the added benefit of online 'PC' gaming when I want to.

to travel then hook into a wall again I got this on Black Friday for 649, and it delivers strong performance across a wide range of games. It runs Fortnite, Helldivers, Arc Raiders, Red Dead Redemption 2, modded Minecraft, Satisfactory, and Breath of the Wild on CEMU at max settings, maintaining at least 60 FPS and often exceeding that. Overall, it handles demanding titles smoothly and performs reliably even under heavy loads. My only complaint is the battery life, which I view as a reasonable tradeoff since it functions more like a portable desktop that can be used on the go for a while, then plugged in for extended sessions.

The performance has been outstanding; I've tested a couple of games, including Ghost of Tsushima and Forza Horizon 5, both of which ran smoothly on ultra graphics settings. This laptop is perfect for gaming and delivers an incredible experience overall.

Computer is amazing depending on the price you get it for, I got it for $650 and its well worth it, i think originally it was over $1000 and for that price i don't think its the best price to performance. The laptop runs great on warzone but the first time i downloaded it, it was glitching and was very pixelated. Since redownloading it I have not had that issue with warzone. Make sure if you are going to play cod have it in Fullscreen EXCLUSIVE. The laptop of course gets hot but that's to be expected and I wouldn't use it without it being plugged in because battery life is not the best. I use this at work and when i want to game in the living room and its actually fun. I wouldn't spend more than $850 on this but you could definitely make this a decent pc if you hook it up to a monitor.

Works quite well, the screen has ample brightness and reflection rejection in a bright office space, the keyboard has a decent feel and not too much flex, the laptop runs quietly until demanding programs or games are launched which is totally reasonable...I wouldn't mind taking this to a class or a conference room for light use. This laptop is quite heavy but I think that's to be expected, and the power brick is quite large with its high wattage so it's not the most portable, but that's not a surprise being a gaming laptop. My only gripes are the trackpad click, it's not very confidence inspiring and feels pretty cheap, the speakers are very very quiet and do not sound very full, and the keyboard's backspace key is weirdly short so anytime I go to press it I end up hitting the key to the right of it instead.

Excellent speed and performance, easy to use and navigate

Loving this laptop it looks and feels amazing runs smooth and it’s nice for the price

I just love this laptop! I got it specifically for creating music and music videos and it is handling the software wonderfully. It is well built and esthetics are nice. The only downside is the battery life is not very long.

Frames drop constantly got heated quickly long loading times.
