Case - A plastic case for the Legion 5

You will look in vain for high-quality case materials in the Legion 5, since Lenovo uses matte-black plastic. The top of the base unit is covered with a rubberized surface. What immediately stands out is the positioning of the lid, which is not flush with the back of the notebook but shifted toward the front by about 25 mm (~1 in). The battery is built in. There is no maintenance flap, so in order to access the insides, you have to remove the bottom of the case.

There is no reason for complaints about the workmanship. The clearances are right and we do not notice any sharp edges. While the base unit can be warped slightly, this remains within limits. The same goes for the lid. Pressure on the back of the lid leads to changes in the display image in some places. The hinges hold the lid tightly in place, with a maximum opening angle of about 170 degrees. It is possible to open the lid with one hand.

The Legion 5i represents the largest and heaviest laptop within our comparison field.

Equipment - The Lenovo Laptop comes without Thunderbolt 3

The Lenovo computer offers five USB ports (4x Type-A, 1x Type-C) that all operate in the USB 3.2 Gen-1 standard. The Type-C port also supports the DisplayPort-via-USB-C function (but you need to purchase a separate adapter). So together with the HDMI port, the Legion offers two video connections. In addition, there is a Gigabit Ethernet connection and an audio combo port.

Back: slot for a cable lock, Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Type-C, DisplayPort), 2x USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Type-A), HDMI 2.0, power

SD Card Reader

In contrast to its 15.6-inch sibling model, our current test unit includes an SD storage card reader. Inserted storage cards stick out by a whole 16 mm (~0.6 in). With transfer rates of 88 MB/s (copying large data blocks) and 80 MB/s (transferring 250 jpg files of about 5 MB each), the reader is among the faster representatives of its kind. We test storage card readers using a reference card (Toshiba Exceria Pro SDXC 64 GB UHS-II).

Communication

The Intel WLAN chip (AX201) supports the 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax standards. The transfer rates measured under optimal conditions (no other WLAN devices in close proximity, close distance between notebook and server PC) turn out excellent. Wired network connections are handled by a representative of Realtek's familiar RTL8168/8111 family, which does its job without any complications.

Webcam

The webcam (0.9 MP, max. 1280 x 720 pixels) does not produce convincing images - just as the cameras from the competitors. In addition, color accuracy is lacking. With a deviation of almost 16, the target of Delta-E smaller than 3 is clearly missed.

Accessories

The notebook includes the usual documents such as quick start instructions and warranty information.

Maintenance

In order to access the insides, you have to remove the bottom of the case. First all the screws on the bottom have to be removed, before you can lift off the bottom of the case using a flat spatula or prying tool. Because of the way it is built, this turns out to be more difficult in the back section of the base unit than in the front area, and you have to proceed carefully and with a delicate touch.

Warranty

Lenovo offers a two-year warranty for the 17.3-inch laptop. The duration and services can be expanded, with a three-year on-site warranty costing about 55 Euros (~$64), for example.

Input Devices - There is no RGB illumination

Keyboard

The Legion is equipped with an illuminated chiclet keyboard. The concave keys offer a short stroke and clear pressure point. While typing, the keyboard has some give in the right area of the main keys, but this did not turn out to be too much of a hindrance. The keyboard illumination (two brightness levels) is controlled by a function key. Overall, Lenovo is delivering a keyboard suitable for everyday tasks here.

Touchpad

The multitouch capable ClickPad has a footprint of about 10.5 x 7 cm (~4.1 x 2.8 in), so it does not lack space for using gesture controls. The pad also responds to inputs in the corners, and the smooth surface does not prevent fingers from sliding easily. The pad offers a short stroke and clearly audible and noticeable pressure point.

Display - IPS onboard

The matte 17.3-inch display of the Legion offers a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The brightness (304 cd/m²) and contrast (1304:1) turn out good. While the response times are decent, they don't inspire enthusiasm, and the alternatively available 144-Hz display recommends itself in this regard.

In the state of delivery, the display shows a decent color reproduction. However, with a Delta-E 2000 color deviation of 4.4, the target of Delta-E < 3 is missed. The display does not suffer from a blue tint. A calibration will improve the color reproduction with the color deviation dropping to 1.53 and the grayscale reproduction becoming more balanced. The AdobeRGB (71%) and sRGB (93%) color spaces are not covered completely.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
28 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 15.6 ms rise
28 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 12.4 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.4 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 64 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (22.7 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
38.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 19.6 ms rise
38.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 18.8 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.25 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 47 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is similar to the average of all tested devices (35.9 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 19601 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Lenovo has equipped the Legion with an IPS panel with stable viewing angles, allowing the display to be read from any viewing angle. Outdoors, the display contents can be read if the sunlight is not too bright.

Performance - The hardware runs at full power

The 17.3-inch Legion 5 17IMH05 gaming notebook is able to bring all the current games to the screen smoothly. While our test unit costs barely 1000 Euros (~$1172), other equipment variants are also available.

Test Conditions

The preinstalled Lenovo Vantage software allows you to specify the temperature mode with the three options "Performance mode," "Balanced mode," and "Quiet mode" being available. We used the "Balanced mode" for running our tests, since it is active by default.

The integrated UHD Graphics-630 GPU can be turned on or off with the Lenovo Vantage software ("Hybrid mode"). We ran our tests with an active iGPU - which also means that the switching graphics solution (Optimus) was activated.

Balanced vs. Performance vs. Quiet Mode

The three temperature modes only influence the performance development of the processor. They have no effect on the GPU. If the Balanced mode is active, the CPU Turbo is only used after several minutes of sustained load. The same goes for the Quiet mode, but there the Turbo is not used fully. Only with the Performance mode activated, the Turbo is used immediately at full power.

So what is the effect of the Balanced mode? In the first minutes of a computer game, the frame rates may remain below the capabilities of the hardware, which depends on the CPU load of the game. Applications that only demand brief spurts of computing performance will not be able to use the Turbo. This is confirmed by the results in the various CPU benchmarks, the CB15 loop test, and the Witcher-3 test.

In our opinion, the Quiet mode represents the first choice for everyday operation. The fans run rarely or not at all, allowing for concentrated work. The CPU performance is more than sufficient for everyday usage scenarios.

Note: We ran the CPU and PC-Mark benchmarks in Performance mode as well as Balanced mode, and you can find the results in the comparison charts.

Processor

The Legion is run by a Core i5-10300H quad-core processor (Comet Lake), which runs at a basic core speed of 2.5 GHz. Via Turbo, the clock speed can be increased up to 4.2 GHz (four cores) and 4.5 GHz (single core). Hyper threading (running two threads per core) is supported.

The processor runs through the CPU tests of the Cinebench benchmarks at 4.2 GHz (multi-thread) and 4.2 to 4.5 GHz (single-thread). In battery operation, the clock speeds remain at 2.5 GHz (single and multi-thread).

Multi-thread (mains operation, Performance mode)

Single-thread (mains operation, Performance mode)

We evaluate whether the CPU Turbo is also used constantly in mains operation by running the multi-thread test of the Cinebench R15 benchmark for at least 30 minutes in a constant loop. While the Turbo is only used after the sixth run, it then runs at full speed. If the Performance mode is activated in the Lenovo Vantage software, the Turbo is used immediately.

System Performance

The system runs smoothly and is well-rounded. The Core i5 processor offers sufficient computing performance for all the usual application areas, and the dedicated graphics core allows using computer games. The overall performance could be slightly increased by activating the dual-channel mode. To do that, you would need to install a second working memory module into the notebook.

The notebook offers two working memory slots.

Storage Solution

An NVMe SSD (M.2-2242) from SK Hynix that offers 512 GB of storage space is used as the system drive. While the transfer rates turn out good, the SSD is not one of the top models.

The laptop storage can be expanded by a 2.5-inch storage medium (SATA slot and insertion frame available) or a second eNVMe SSD (M.2-2280, M.2-2242). However, you cannot insert both drives at the same time, since inserting a second NVMe SSD requires taking out the 2.5-inch drive frame.

... hides the SSD (bottom of the picture; NVMe, M.2-2242) and WLAN module.

The laptop offers space for a 2.5-inch storage medium (the image shows a place holder).

If the 2.5-inch drive frame is removed, a second NVMe SSD can be inserted alternatively. The thread necessary to fasten the SSD (bottom right corner) can be moved, allowing you to use SSDs of various lengths.

Graphics Card

The GeForce-GTX-1650 graphics core (Turing) is a representative of the GPU mid-range. It is accompanied by 4096 GB of fast GDDR6 graphics storage. The results in the 3D-Mark benchmarks range at a normal level for this GPU. The UHD Graphics 630 GPU integrated into the processor is active, and the laptop uses Nvidia's Optimus switching graphics solution. The iGPU can be deactivated in the BIOS or in the Lenovo Vantage software.

Nvidia envisions a clock speed range between 1380 MHz (basis) and 1515 MHz (boost) for this DirectX 12 GPU. Higher clock speeds can be reached if the GPU does not exceed a fixed temperature and/or power limit. For example, we register a maximum of 1797 MHz that can only be maintained briefly, though. Our "The Witcher 3" test runs at an average speed of 1706 MHz.

Gaming Performance

The CPU-GPU combination brings all the games in our database smoothly to the screen. Generally the Full-HD resolution and medium to high quality settings can be used, and in some case even more is possible.

The fact that the working memory runs in single-channel mode is responsible for some games (see comparison chart) only reaching significantly lower frame rates at low settings than other comparably-equipped laptops. A second working memory module (= active dual-channel mode) would remedy this.
