Legion 5i

I bought myself a Lenovo Legion 5i around Black Friday last year via Amazon. Very happy with it so far. I use it both for leisure (like gaming, music, watching yt etc.) and school or other serious work. The laptop is great, it handles everything very well, works great, is very fast, and I haven't ha

Do you want to take your laptop with you to class? Get the Macbook Air. Do you want to accelerate your engineering workflow/rendering? Legion 5i. The 5070 will help a lot in that regard. It's true that the Legion 5i will be heavier -- but it's more like 2.7lbs vs. 4lbs -- which is pretty light for a

Price aside, yes the specs are likely plenty for what you’re doing. But as others have mentioned your battery life will be horrendous and you do not want to be lugging this AND the heavy charger around to classes. My son is starting college for Industrial Engineering this fall. He has a Lenovo Legio

for uni carry + gaming, g14 is way easier to lug around. the legion is heavier and that brick of a charger sucks in a backpack. i've had both and honestly the portability difference matters more than the slight fps boost. with your budget you can grab a Zephyrus G14 5070 Ti 32GB on sale right around

If you’re used to Yoga weight, you might have some issue getting accustomed to the weight of a gaming laptop. Also if you don’t mind gaming laptops running at most 2 hours without plugged in, or having to carry around charging brick. Not tell you don’t get, but just really be aware cause it will aff

The lenovo legion 5i or 7i is going to be a much better choice though the battery life on the 7i sucks so without a charger your only going to get about 2 and a half hours on one.

I ended up getting a legion 5i. Definitely a keep a power source with you kind of laptop. But performance and weight wise its very good
