70% Lenovo Legion 7i review
Source: Laptop Mag
The Legion 7i offers mixed performance. The Lenovo gaming rig towers above its rivals when it comes to file-transfer speed, virtual reality and screen brightness, but the Legion 7i fails to stand out on overall performance, video transcoding and battery life. If you’re seeking a longer-lasting gaming rig, you should consider the MSI GS66 Stealth, which lasts two hours longer on a charge.

80% Lenovo Legion 7i review: Core i7-10750H, RTX 2080 SUPER, and a 240Hz screen

Aside from the performance and the SSD, one thing I really appreciated was Thunderbolt 3. Since I use so many laptops, I'm almost always working with a Thunderbolt 3 dock, so I can just connect my two 4K monitors and work from the laptop that I'm reviewing. Usually with a gaming laptop, I have to make some compromises because gaming laptops don't have Thunderbolt 3, or multiple USB Type-C ports.

Lenovo Legion 7 (15) review – tackling the new Super graphics cards with an improved cooling
Source: Laptop Media
So, everybody, we just reviewed a great all-rounder, when it comes to productivity. It can be configured with some of the most powerful mobile processors and graphics cards out there. What’s so special about it? Well, it weighs 2.25 kg and has a profile of 19.9 mm. This is in the MSI GS65 Stealth range. However, unlike the GS65, the Legion 7 (15) makes less noise than the Saturn V rocket, powering the Apollo missions, and manages to provide very respectable frequencies and temperatures.

Model:

Lenovo has dropped its latest venture onto the market, the Lenovo Legion 7 15IMH05-81YT000UGE. This laptop comes with a 15.6-inch screen. It has been equipped with an IPS panel carrying a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. As for the camera, this laptop comes with a 720p webcam for the user’s convenience. It should be noted that this device is in the MSI GS65 Stealth range. However, unlike the GS65, this Legion 7 model makes less noise than the Saturn V rocket powering the Apollo missions, and manages to provide very respectable frequencies and temperatures.

In terms of its battery, this notebook has been equipped with an 80Wh Lithium-Polymer battery, and the longevity of the battery typically depends on the hours of usage and the intensity of usage, which vary from user to user. Typically, the battery can last for about 6 hours with gaming and about 8 hours with normal day-to-day usage. As for the performance, the Lenovo Legion 7 15IMH05-81YT000UGE has been equipped with an Intel Core i7-10750H processor. This is a high-end processor for laptops with six cores based on the Comet-Lake architecture. The CPU should run fine even with demanding applications. The graphic adapter for this model is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080 Super Max-Q, which is the power-saving variant of the mobile GeForce RTX2080 Super. This adapter allows the latest and most demanding games to be played in high resolutions.

In terms of its connectivity, this laptop has been equipped with three USB 3.0/3.1 Gen-1 ports. It also has a single Thunderbolt, HDMI and a DisplayPort respectively. In addition, there is a 3.5mm headphone jack for users to attach their wired headphones/earphones. This caters for a much better user experience while listening to their favourite music or movie. While there are many out there who prefer wired headphones, some are not really  fans of using headphones at all. Therefore, if the user does not like the option of using headphones, there is an awesome set of speakers integrated within the laptop for an incredible audio experience. Apart from all the ports mentioned above, it should be noted that there is also a single USB Type-C port, which is useful for charging and data transfer.

As far as the keyboard is concerned, this model has been equipped with a chiclet keyboard with a Numpad. It should also be noted that the keys have a backlight for a better experience while using it. In terms of its touchpad, the laptop has a Buttonless Mylar surface multi-touch touchpad. Overall, this is definitely a great laptop to explore, but the choice of owning one is absolutely subjective, depending on the choice and preference of the users.
