Reviews for the Lenovo LOQ 15IRH8

Lenovo LOQ hands-on: First impressions of Lenovo's new gaming machine
Source: Pocket Lint English
There's a lot to like about the Lenovo LOQ on first glance. The feel of this laptop and the design doesn't scream basic - in fact some might be taken by that slightly more subtle design than some other gaming laptops. We also love the rear IO and the colour detail to the vents around the chassis - it looks great. We have high hopes for this laptop, but obviously haven't had the opportunity to test it to any degree. But with plentiful hardware options and a wide range of features on offer, the Lenovo LOQ could be a great choice for someone looking for a powerful PC that doesn't cost the earth.

First Impressions: Lenovo LOQ 15i (2023) Review
Source: Trusted Reviews English
The Lenovo LOQ 15i represents a renewed focus on the budget gaming laptop market from the popular manufacturer. The design changes are a welcome revamp, if still one that doesn’t reinvent the wheel. The specs look promising for entry-level laptop gaming and a starting price that I’d expect to be just over £1000 once UK pricing is announced. The combination of the latest Intel or AMD chips alongside Nvidia’s best mid-tier mobile graphics card should do a solid job. We shall see.

Hands on: Lenovo LOQ 15 review
Source: Techradar English
The Lenovo LOQ 15, as I’ve seen so far, could be a contender for one of the best cheap gaming laptops for gamers. It features some great specs, both in hardware and display, while choosing options that keep its price point down. If its configurations can deliver on the $900 and up MSRP, then we’ll have our clear winners for this generation. That's not to mention how much lighter this machine is than some of the offerings we’ve seen this generation yet. If the price is truly right — and it should be with the option to customize and lower pricing even more, as well as the choice between AMD and Intel CPUs — then we could be looking at the kind of mix between value and performance that’s long overdue in the gaming market.
