Abysmal battery life aside, there’s very little to complain about with the entire Legion family. As the second-most budget-conscious of the Legion laptops (when on sale at third-party retailers), the Legion 5i is a solid current-gen update with plenty to recommend it, from impressive performance and solid graphics to a satisfying keyboard and more ports than I know what to do with. While the per-key RGB lighting on the Legion 7i and Legion Pro 5 and 7 laptops makes a solid argument for upgrading from the Legion 5i, there’s little other reason to opt for one of the higher-end Legion laptops unless you desperately need an RTX 4080 under the hood.

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.
