Reviews for the Lenovo Legion S7 16ARHA7
Lenovo's thinnest gaming laptop is just 1/100th of a millimeter thicker than the Razer Blade 15 and it uses only the latest Zen 3+ and RDNA 2 parts from AMD. It holds up surprisingly well against the competition so long as you don't mind the high core temperatures.

The Slim 7 is 16.9mm thin and it’s clad in a rigid and understated aluminum casing that doesn’t scream “gamer”. Our review unit has a 165Hz IPS display, AMD Ryzen 6900HX CPU and AMD Radeon RX 6800S dedicated graphics. A fingerprint scanner and 1080p webcam are standard.

Each year, gaming laptops promise higher and higher performance, but that usually means more mass, power consumption, and price. The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 Gen 7 is a capable rig that easily outruns non-gaming notebooks of similar size. If you're looking for a laptop that can play present-day titles but is relatively easy to carry around, the Slim 7 is a fine choice, though the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 remains our lightweight favorite—albeit more gamer-garish and more expensive.

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.
