At the end of the day, Lenovo Legion Slim 5 (16, Gen 9) is a powerhouse that is also thin (for a gaming gadget). The chassis is solid and the keyboard is comfortable for gaming or typing. Of course, a not-so-thick profile combined with high-end hardware leads to high noise levels during gaming in “Performance” mode. The fans don’t spin that aggressively when the “Balance” preset is applied but the GPU TGP is reduced from 132W to just 75W. Interestingly, the overall power is good but in some gaming titles, the RTX 4070 isn’t showing its full potential (like Far Cry 6 or Gears 5). Perhaps Lenovo could fix this issue with future updates(but maybe the CPU is the bottleneck since some scores on Low or Medium details are too low).

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.
