Reviews for the Lenovo Legion 5 17ACH6H-82JY0001GE

85% Lenovo Legion 5 17-inch review (Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3070)
Source: Ultrabook Review
Overall I’m OK with this 17-inch Legion 5. It’s just as good as the 15-inch model I reviewed recently, except it has an SD card reader. It is bigger and heavier though, so you’ll have to put up with extra heft if you want the 17-inch screen. The value is there, especially with the RTX 3060 models which are competitively priced, and you get good construction with a decent keyboard and trackpad, lots of IO, and excellent performance, thermals, and noise levels. The audio is still lacking, though, and I wish Lenovo offered a QHD screen option for this series.
