I forgot to mention it's the legion Pro 5i (Intel) . Not the Legion Pro 5 (AMD)
I will also add Timestamps in the next 24H ;)

I like that Nvidia increase power efficiency, but intel going crazy.

Always appreciate your reviews and analysis.🙏
To me, in 2023, with only 6GB of vram, any RTX 4050 laptop isn't worth consideration. It will reach a vram limit very fast.

The task manager displays RAM bus of 4800MHz because the i5 13500HX only supports DDR5 4800 at maximum. You can confirm it at Intel CPU specs sites. This thing happens on i7 versions also except for the i9 version.

Ayo thanks for the video man!! I saw the notification and instantly clicked on it! 😁

[rsorry]

I got this one refurbished with an i7 13th gen and 4070 for $1200 🔥

[amdacles]

This is an absolute beast for an affordable price. The only downside is the lack of thunderbolt which every laptops havein modern days.

Great review! Waiting for my Lenovo legion exactly like the one in the video but with RTX 4060( 1450 euro in my country)

[vipsignlive]

Never fail to impress Hubwood!, Thanks for the video. Cheers to Germany 🤟🏻

Great review, I just saw this today as I had my Lenovo Y700 cleaned. Guess what? My Y700 speakers sound better and louder than the newest and latest Lenovo laptops. I was surprised. I want to get my new one with Windows 10 for sure. I like that it is heavies and thicker for better airflow and space.

There are 3 things they removed from last year's model:

- The glass touch pad

- Thunderbolt 4 port

- Keyboard illuminated for each key

I used google translate :V

Just bought the same variant but with 165hz instead of 240hz.Cant wait.

[me_dimko]

I've noticed that your device also has the short left shift, same as my Legion 5 Pro 2021 because I have Slovak keyboard loadout. After 14 months of use, it just started to annoy me now :DD I have never used the key that would originally be the right half of the shift button. Also, pictures from the shop I got it from were US versions with the long left shift... nevermind. Great review though!

[bigpotatoo]

hey, lenovo legion pro 5i rtx 4050 with i5 13500hx OR lenovo loq rtx 4050/4060 with ryzen 7 7840hs/i7 13700h? What should I get? (loq is a lil cheaper)

[Bettafish]

Great review again! Thank you for taking BF2042 in your test, this game is good indication for cpu performance as this game is very cpu but also gpu heavy!

[robi]

I bought a Legion 5 Slim 2023 with 4060 and amd7840hs, but it had a buzzing sound when doing nothing, and when I touched the touchpad, the sound got louder or disappeared, I returned it, now I dont know If I should buy the same model again or go for something else, can you help me with some tips please?

[PNDRN]

Hi! Great video. I bought a Legion 5i Pro with i7 13700HX 16 core 24 threads, 16Gb 4800MHz DDR5, 1Tb m.2 nvmE ssd, 16" 2560*1600 100% SRGB 240Hz screen, 4-zone RGB Lenovo Truestrike keyboard, RTX 4070 140W TGP. 🙂 I paid
1719.75 USD.

[josephlumbog]

Does the laptop has thunderbolt port??

[DotG]

Could you please test dlss 3 on a 45W 4050 vs a 140W 3060 without dlss

[paulodamiao]

Thanks for the review but you are actually reviewing the Lenovo Legion Pro 5i (Gen 8, Intel), not the Pro 5 (Gen 8, AMD)
