The line between gaming and normal laptops is just a better display and a great graphics card. Just go check out the Predator Helios 300 2019 model on Flipkart. It's the best laptop for architectural work and if you wanna do some heavyyy gaming, it's superior in every aspect of laptops and provides a heck lot than it should for such a low price of 110 000 thousand rupees.

KZbin isn't his main and only job, so he can choose to prioritize viewers over greediness. This is one of the reason I like his channel and rolled my eyes when people keep asking him if he is or if/when he will become a full-time KZbinr. When KZbin is your primary income, you're more incentivized to optimize for more revenue. You have to appeal to "the algorithm" and monetization rules in addition to normal rules. It's kind of like selling your soul to KZbin.

Thank you for your insights. Regarding the hinge issue on previous Legion products, it has more to do with the plastic base under each hinge which is supposed to anchor the hinge. But due to structural weaknesses of each plastic base due to torsional forces coming through the screen, those forces ended up unseating the plastic base under each hinge, thereby de-stabilizing each respective hinge. Fortunately, that issue has been rectified in the mid-2020 version of the Legion 5. I've referred to this and your other videos on other gaming notebooks and just purchased the Legion 5 with the AMD processor. Ravi Peiris M.D.

Could someone use this laptop for graphic design?

[@phillipgoat00]

yeah same here. Never had a laptop that chunky but it's really powerful. wish they could do a redo but with a 3060 instead. the pro version looks amazing too but it's too expensive (I paid almost $300 more for this one because of the pandemic, still it's worth it)

bought it with R7 4800H + 1660 Ti for 999,00€. Beast ! Well engineered ! Great display options. Good materials. Nice backlit keyboard. Back ports. Very well priced. Great product.

Dave, I wanted to say thank you for this wonderful review. After a few weeks of waiting for a good price and narrowing selection between Lenovo Legion and Omen 15, I finally went with the Legion 5i as it's currently on sale right now (7/12/21) during their cyber Monday in July sale. Thermals was a great factor for me so I'm glad you said it doesn't get too hot on this one. Again, thank you so much!

Hey David.... I own the Lenovo 5. got it via Best Buy for a cool 950 on sale. It came with 8gb Ram but I slapped another 8gb onto it and this laptop is a beast. Great review... but I would add that this gaming laptop is a great workhorse. 4k editing. It manages my Insta360 (5.7k footage well) I game AND stream on this rig without performance issues. COD Warzone plays on this like a dream while handling OBS, and streaming. IF it could make my coffee I think it would manage to do so. Anyone considering this laptop should absolutely take the plunge! I do recommend a cooling pad to go with it. It does get warm!

I had the Y520 and it lasted me for a long while and was passed down to my family and still going strong. Lenovo does a good job on a quality laptop. One thing I do not like on this Legion 5 (i) is the shifting of the arrow keys inward towards the center. As a left handed gamer, I love the old position beneath the keypad.

Thank you for the mischief! I myself was recently given a Lenovo Legion 5 with AMD Ryzen 5 and RTX 2060. And I'm completely satisfied with it! It is my version of the laptop that surpasses its pro version in many respects. In general, Lenovo Legion 5 has a lot of advantages, thanks to which it outperforms its competitors. I am completely satisfied with this laptop and give it 11/10!

[@godsmanager8053]

Rey Joson if you do go for the legion the build of it feels very well built and very durable, i think the only con i can think of the legion build is that the hinge comes wrapped in some sort of plastic, not sure if it’s supposed to be like that or taken off, but it’s pretty unnoticeable, i only saw it because over time the corners of the wrap starts to peel back a bit, but it’s pretty hard to take off, i gave up trying to. other than that i don’t think there is anything else i ran into.

[@reyjoson7895]

godsmanager im looking for a creator laptop, that’s my goal and need. I only considered these gaming laptops so I can work and play at the same time. But the main issues that I encountered on these machines are the low color accuracy and the price. Some color accurate gaming laptops are way out of my budget. Some budget gaming laptops comes with low color accuracy. Just to be safe I got myself a Macbook Pro, which is all work no play kind of machine 😥

[@godsmanager8053]

Rey Joson i understand, i’m a high school student and i needed a quick laptop for school, i just happened to run into a specked out legion and got it since it was the only good one for the price. i didn’t want to wait and just got it to make sure i have something, i hope the macbook works well, i don’t know much about apple but it sure they’re products are good for productivity and creating if i’m right.

@@sedenyavuz9656 So I've had this laptop for a few days now. It does get very hot when gaming, so I would suggest a cooling pad, which I'm getting from Amazon, but it should be fine if you don't actually game on your lap. The trackpad is what you would expect, it's smooth and responsive, especially with the refresh rate of the screen which puts my old 2016 HP to shame. The keyboard is nice and sturdy, satisfying to type on. My version came with programmable RGB through Lenovo Vantage. I'll update with more thermals when I test it more, but so far so good!
