Reviews for the Lenovo Legion 5 16IRX9, i7-14650HX

80% Lenovo Legion 5i (Gen 9) review: standout performance at a mid-range price
Source: Techradar English
Featuring a Nvidia RTX 4050, 4060 or 4070 GPU and a large 16-inch, 165Hz display, the Legion 5i is built to push your gaming experience to the next level. The laptop is also very capable for daily productivity use and blends in at the office or Uni once you turn off the eye-catching RGB lighting. At 32 x 26 x 2.5 cm (0.99 x 14.16 x 10.33 inches) and weighing 2.3kg (5.1lbs), the 5i just makes it into the range of what I would consider as realistically portable, meaning that it slots into a larger backpack or laptop bag without too much fuss. At the time of writing, the three Legion 5i GPU variants (4050, 4060 and 4070) are sold with the Core i7-14650HX or i9-14900HX CPUs, up to 32GB of RAM, and a 512GB or 1TB SSD. All three video cards use the full 140W power profile.

Lenovo Legion 5i (2024) Review - Still Best Mid-Range Gaming Laptop?

85% How to hide a gaming laptop in the office: Lenovo Legion 5 review
Source: Mezha EN English
Among its category, Lenovo Legion 5 is the player who came to the basketball court in a business suit. But interestingly, this did not affect its performance in any way. It demonstrates competitive performance for its configuration, has good manipulators, all the necessary ports, a good display, allows the owner to upgrade the memory, and so on. However, since this is not a flagship, there is no support for Wi-Fi 7, faster-than-gigabit Ethernet, or convenient authentication methods. But such moments will not be important for everyone. Still, if your goal is to buy a gaming laptop with a neutral design and without paying extra for all the colors of the rainbow on all sides of the case, the Legion 5 will be a great candidate for such a place.

16.00":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
