Reviews for the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 16APH8
Lenovo Legion Slim 5 16APH8 laptop review: Underappreciated design with an underperforming GPU | Notebookcheck
The Legion Slim 5 16 is one of the best-looking gaming laptops in the low US$1000 price range and it includes a fantastic 165 Hz 1600p IPS display to boot. Unfortunately, some issues may be holding back its RTX 4060 graphics.

Lenovo Legion Slim 5 is a portable 14-inch gaming laptop packed with an AMD processor and a RTX 4060. It's Lenovo Legions very first small gaming laptop and there's a lot I like about it. But of course it's not perfect!

Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 Review
Source: PC Mag
The Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 acknowledges that a gaming laptop doesn’t have to be as thick as possible and can still ensure adequate cooling when the muscles need flexing. To this end, in the Slim 5 Gen 8, it finds a neat balance of refined, trimmed-down design that still lets its internals cruise (even above their max power ratings). Lenovo then added in some high-end build quality with an altogether excellent keyboard that’s useful for both work and play. At its retail price, the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 already wins our Editors' Choice award for midrange gaming laptops. And given how often Lenovo discounts its gaming laptops over their lifetimes, this deal might just get even better over time.
