I got a Legion last year for my college course and as a desktop replacement (my desktop CPU hadn't been upgraded in 7 years). I picked it because it looked so much like a normal laptop so I can use it at work (where all the normies live) without drawing stares. But I've never regretted my purchase even though there was a slightly more powerful laptop (on paper) for the same price because it's just such a solid well made laptop. I don't cry whenever I drop my backpack with it inside! This looks like the logical progression with better speakers and RBG. I might just get another when it comes time to upgrade. I should add in as well that although I've never tested the thermals properly, I've never noticed thermal throttling after prolonged game play at or around 144 Hz.

I have the legion 5, i have had it for about 16 days but still, i truly love it! The usb-C supports displayport 1.2 so that's a awesome feature to have 2 video outs. Also i haven't complained about the screens brightness but i guess i see that it is a dimm screen (the 120hz 45% NTSC screen). My reason of buying it was because all competitors or were ugly af or were about 200 dollars more expensive. There was no option for me to go with the 60hz 100% srgb version but if you can do it if you can use the 50 nits extra brightness or the 100% srgb. There was minimal junk programs but i would remove the program that controles the onscreen viewing of the toggles (like caps lock and numpad). Other than that awesome mechine for €850,- upgrade for €30 extra to 16gb with a cl22 22-22-22-22 module. So my review for now would be AWESOME, nothing that i can think of that could be better at this pricepoint (within The Netherlands) apart from the screen i would have like to get the 60hz 100% srgb version as i have said before but the option was not available for me.

Is the one you have currently is the 2020 or 2021 version? So far there were problems around the hinge and if the 2022 one had the problem solved then I would look forward to buy one. A gaming laptop that doesn't always look like one thanks to the customizable keyboard lighting and competitive prices.

@@TheGamingMotionTGM I can't remember but it has been some time over a year so my guess would be that I have the 2020 version. I had a problem with the screen not turning on after a bios update but lenovo fixed it within a week without any cost to me and it's working flawlessly again so yeah no problems. The hinge is still as good as the day I bought it no issues there either. Just overall a very well build and overall a awesome machine!!

Honestly if I would design a cooling system for a gaming laptop I would put 3 big fans on that "plate" at 3:00 , the middle one would blow cold air right on the (AMD!!) CPU and GPU dive and they would all run at lower RPM speeds , of course if needed they would be cranked up by a touch of a button!
