The top lid of the 2021 model looks way better imo. Plus you can toggle whether you want it on or off.

Another great comparison, Ben, for me you can still choose the 2021 model if you don't mind the slight decrease in performance compared to the 2022 model. The pros are that it is much cheaper, and you can still find the RTX 3070 in the 2021 model if you want it only for gaming. The upgrade of the 2022 model CPU does not create a huge gap in terms of cpu performance.

If you're going for the 5 pro, there is not a big difference between the 21 and 22 models. However, if you consider the 5i pro, there is a huge gap in performance and in my opinion makes the 22 5i pro a no brainer if you could afford it

No comment on the RAM being a newer version that works differently (DDR4 to DDR5), no commentary on the SSD PCIe version being newer (Gen 3 to Gen 4), no commentary on the 2022 model having USB4 in one of the USB-C ports, no commentary on the USB-C charging support going from 100W to 135W, with some asterisks. The upgraded thermal design did get demonstrated in one of the tests. Glad I got the 2022 model.

Mine is last years Ryzen 7 5800H with RTX 3070.... Bought last year and it's a great best investment!

[royski]

Asthetics / design and I/O locations I'd still go for 2021 version. Well, but if I will have 2022 as a prize, why not!!!😊

[muratgelir]

I don't know why many people don't like the old top cover design but for my liking older design is much better looking.

Btw when are you gonna hit the 100k man. We have been waiting for the legions. Come on lads help him reach 100k!

In third world country a college student might need such a thing for both study and work, I wish I could have one but may the person who needs it more have it ❤✌🏻 thank you for all the time you've spent for making this video, it was functional.

[danieledulatre]

They're both great in different aspects as you shown in this video but I would definitely choose the Legion 5 Pro (2022) over the Legion 5 Pro (2021) because of its latest cpu and gpu, and for me, I like the 2022 design than the 2021.

[joshallisn]

I got the 6800h/3070Ti L5P 2022 model on sale for $1399. It's frequently on sale for that price so if you can grab it for that go for it!

[maciejgac]

Dang! I was struggling with choice. Your videos helped me a lot! Now i know which will be better for PS and for my pocket. Cheers!

[rev_tun]

I contemplated this over my zyphyr thanks for the performance rundown

[timbob]

Thank you! Awesome video, awesome notebooks

[NooB_MAK]

very nice. informative bro...
I just wish either of these goes on sale at around 1.1k to be able to snag it at ease

[alun]

In my country, 2021 Legion 5 Pro 3070 is now around $1300. Whereas the 2022 version w/ 3070 Ti is $1700, so last year’s model is definitely worth the price for $400 less

[midnightmythos]

Humbly requesting this format with Slim 7 gen6/7, great video as always

[jonathantheyorkie]

I'm upgrading from 2021 L5 to 2022 L7i, should arrive tomorrow

[amieljulespinon]

Love the extra usb type c port on the 22 model helps me connect my hub faster and add external ssd when needed.

[junhoyeon]

2021 is great since price is little cheaper, but I love 2022 design!! It's so much simpler than 2021!
