I've had this laptop for about 1.5 years now, and it's had lots of issues.
The good:
The hardware is good aside from the limited 8GB RAM
Processor, GPU, Storage, and Display are great for my needs
The bad:
First off, it's heavy and not too durable
Heats up quickly, and the fans are loud
The plastics dent very easily
A line of pixels went bad within 3 months, and the warranty didn't cover it
Just recently, the space bar stopped working and was not covered under warranty
The battery drains quickly, but charges fast
The cooling fan rattles when it kicks on

Definitely worth the money. Even with 8 gb ram this will run games smoothly in high performance. Upgrading to 32 gb ram however made an already great laptop even better. I played fallout 4 at max settings for 4 hours straight and heard the fan kick on one time and it wasn’t extremely loud.

This was a perfect compromise between an expensive gaming laptop and one that really won't play streaming games. Is it a powerhouse, no. Is it a very strong computer for the price though. Battery life is typical for Lenovo which is poor to just alright at best.p

It's an okay laptop, aslong as you get it on sale. It would be nice if it came with 16gb ram. You can upgrade with another 8gb and it runs pretty smooth. With the 3050 only having 6gb of vram there is a little frame drop with higher in games. Fans are a little loud, and it puts off a fair amount of heat. Dont put it on your lap.

Purchased as an open box item for my daughter, who is a beggining gamer. This might have been overkill for a beginner with the specs this item.brings. This laptop has got some weight to it and is a little loud but she seems happy with it so far. Only wish i had purchased one for myself as I almost kept.it. :)

Ive bought a few laptops over the past couple years for work and light gaming as i mainly only play games on pc via PS Stream or Xbox Game Pass and theu really havent been up to the task so i wanted a laptop that had a bit more pwer for gaming, but wasnt a dedicated gaming beast as i am not a hardcore pc gamer so i picked up this Lenovo LOQ on a whim and it has truly exeeded my expectations. I habe had zero issies with PS Stream or Game Pass for PC amd all games run smooth and the display looks crisp and clean. Ive also notoced an amazing overall experoence as far as work ise and everyday use. All my programs and tasks run a lot smoother and faster on this laptop so it was worth the investment for thay alone with the added bonus of being a great machine for gaming on the go. The build of tje laptop feels very sturdy and the keyboard and pad both feel freat and operate smooth with very quick response. If youre looking for a laptop to handle yoir work load or are a casual gamer loke myself, this is the perfect choice for you!

Have had this laptop for a month and its great. If you’re looking for a value entry into gaming on a laptop you can’t do better than this. 8 GB of RAM has been more than enough for my gaming needs. Battery lasts about 4 hours streaming and 2 hours gaming.

Great system, bought this as an updated portable gaming rig and it does not disappoint. You get about an hour of hard gaming out of the battery if you so choose. Only thing I would do is upgrade the RAM and you’ve got the perfect setup.

When I was in the store looking for a laptop that was capable of handling SOLIDWORKS and MATLAB I was suggested this Lenovo laptop. I was given the whole information in what other features the laptop has and they explained it to my understanding. During the purchasing of the laptop they also explained all the benefits of having a warranty and provided me a free of charge start up with my laptop. This product has been serving me well. I am able to do my schooling and there is no problem with the graphics, the Microsoft programs works as well, and everything else works as well. I will say that this item was a bit pricey but this was worth it because of the compatibility with SOLIDWORKS and since this is a gaming laptop the speed helps out a lot to process and do work effectively. If I was asked for a suggestion by someone who needed a laptop I would recommend them this Lenovo gaming laptop from Best Buy.

CRAP CHARGER AND SERVICE FROM BEST BUY

Purchased an open box “excellent” condition at a decent price, had it delivered charged it up then got on to check for updates before doing anything else. Did updates and played around on it for awhile and shut it off and didn’t do anything with it for 3-5 days, then decided to download a game to see how it worked, which was pretty good, then i had to charge it back up. When trying to charge it i noticed it wasn’t charging at all, called best buy to have it checked to verify the charger was defective, took it in and they brought a charger out to check it and it wouldn’t work either, they suggested sending it out and said it could be up to 3-5 weeks til i get it back. I refused and come home and contacted lenovo and they advised me of a authorized service center over an hour away, so i chose to drive it there. They confirmed it was the charger, so they put in a ticket with with lenovo to send a new one at no cost. I mean, I shouldn’t of had to go through all that with a 5 day old laptop that best buy could of easily replaced the charger for me.

Great laptop for the price! Keyboard fuels amazing for a laptop keyboard and keys have a satisfying travel and tactile feel. The high refresh rate on the screen immediately differentiates it from any other screen in my house and made me realize that all I want are high refresh rate TVs lol. Even though the system only comes with 8 GB of ddr5 installed, it is easily upgradable to 32 GB and can support some of the fastest mega Transfer speeds available. The only thing that I would caution people about is the fact that this laptop only has one USB C port. It is very easily expanded but you will need to purchase a separate dongle for it. I was able to purchase this laptop in 2024 for under $600 during a sale. At that price I'm pretty sure this is one of the best laptops that money could buy.

I recently bought this about 4 days ago and so far it’s wonderful I mainly got it for sims 4 but it runs sims 4 very good with mods and packs.Some of the reviews say that it overheats and the battery is bad but so far I’ve had not issue,although saying that I purchased a cooling pad to go along with it overall it’s a very good laptop!

Very good entry laptop. Caught it on sale for $425 open box excellent. Not disappoint by my purchase at all. Does get a little toasty, but handles all the games that I play at 60+ FPS high. I had an extra RAM stick laying around and that definitely helped the performance.

Although this is my very first gaming laptop, It's by far one of my favorite laptops, it's battery life lasts awhile so I can easily go to all my classes without having to charge it every hour and I think personally the graphics and storage are amazing!

It works for the species it has, doesn’t hold a charge when you’re playing games. Been able to run the majority of all the popular indie games that have come out and major releases as well. Overall good starter Laptop

A great laptop overall. Runs everything smoothly. Haven't noticed any high temps. My only complants would be the low battery, which lasts around three hours, and the (sometimes) loud fans.

Great preformace for the price purchased at (just under $500 before tax). Battery is the only concern but could be due to buying a used (like new) unit. Wont even last an hour in a full charge. Overall great but battery needs to be better
