Update: graph at 1:22 should obviously say "faster" instead of "slower" 😅

I didn't win an award :( Oh wait I am not a gaming laptop.

What a fantastic show by this channel this year, THE AWARD FOR BEST GAMING TECH CHANNEL GOES TO JARROD

[GeraltOfTheRivia]

The rtx 40 series might be disappointing for a lot of people but it's the best upgrade for me who comes from the gtx 16 series. Maintaining the low wattage but improve by a lot in term of performance.

I’ve absolutely love your channel. Found it a couple days ago after I started to get into PC gaming. I really like your production quality and your way you set up your videos.

I got the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro with a 13700HX, RTX 4070 8GB, 32GB RAM, 1TB storage and 240Hz screen thanks to some of your recommendations. I got for a 720 USD discount no less at MicroCenter. Got to say it is the best gaming laptop i owned so far and it plays games such as Warhammer III Total War at 1440p, Ultra settings, 60-90FPS! For 1300 USD I couldn't ask for a better gaming laptop.

Hey there Jarrod.. thank you for all the hard work. My trip plans and shipping delays shortcircuited my order for the Eluktronics Prometheus XVI 4080. I'm going to circle back around when I get back to the ranch and try and find the right 4080 laptop for me to move over to for the next couple of years. I look forward to reviewing your work again to help me make my decision. I'm really looking for expandability with a good screen for content creation, along with a good keyboard experience. So your breakdowns are really helpful.

Thank you, and happy holidays.
Cheers
Rick

I got my eyes on that Slim 5 right now. Best Buy has a good deal running for the 7840HS

@JarrodsTech
at 1:27, there is a mistake when comparing the 4060 and 3060. Look at the text. It says that the 4060 is slower by 12.57%

[shadowxjosh]

Hey Jarrod I’ve been watching your videos for the past few days trying to decide which laptop I should get for College/Christmas which I start next year and I decided to go with the Legion Slim 7i RTX 4070 edition. Thank you for your help and keep up the amazing reviews.

[Legitti]

Legion Pro 7i with RTX 4080 for me, no regrets or missing any features. 🔥

[DeepteshLovesTECH]

I think the best gaming laptop (yes an actual laptop) without any budget constraint is the Asus Zephyrus G14 with the 7940HS (undervolting supported) and the RTX 4080. It's the only laptop option with a pheonix point APU with an RTX 4080. Fantastic for both battery life as well as performance.
If budget is a constraint, then it would be the Lenovo LOQ 7840HS and 4060.

[brotherfranciz]

19:27 - omg you got me good. 🤣 I actually thought you were being serious. That deadpan delivery was 👌.

[paulbreaux]

Great video. Just gotta say the speakers on the Legion 7 Pro are phenomenal.

[ZiggyStardust]

Jarrod, I have been watching your videos since early 2020 - you are fair, your attention to detail is great, and your laptop computer analysis is marvelous! Well done.

I don't think having a (big) external water cooling unit counts for best cooling. Would be better if we rate this criteria based on the laptop alone

[fmulleady]

And the 2023 award for the best YouTuber t-shirt

[deepg]

Nice breakdown. I recently purchased a lenovo legion slim 7 with 4060, 32gb/1tb. I wasn't looking for a pure gaming laptop, but more of an all-rounder that could easily handle mid-level gaming with portability. Got a nice deal during their black friday sales. Coming from a macbook air, I fell in love with the slim form factor and industry leading battery life of macbooks. For the more resource intensive games, I have a ps5 and plan to build a desktop in the next 6 months. Nice work breaking down so many categories.

[Mwngl]

Why isn't there a category for the best built quality?

[tschwaui]

Wish i was a gaming laptop. Being thoroughly reviewed by Jarrod must be nice.
