Lenovo Legion 5 (15″ Intel, 2021) review – great allrounder for gaming with decent price tag

As we've concluded in one of our reviews, the Lenovo Legion 5 (15″ AMD, 2021) is a great gaming device that has only a few disadvantages. In this article, we're going to inspect the per…

High TGP GPUs;2x M.2 PCIe slots, 2x RAM SODIMM slots in dual channel, Wi-Fi 6;Covers 97% of the sRGB color gamut and has accurate color representation with our Gaming and Web design profile (BOE NV156FHM-NY8 (BOE0998));Fast panel with quick response...

No SD card;High luminance nonuniformity (BOE NV156FHM-NY8 (BOE0998));Battery life could be better

Overall, the Lenovo Legion 5 (15″ Intel, 2021) is a great allrounder and it offers a lot of bang for its money. The device has an all-plastic build that feels solid and rigid even when you try to twist it on purpose. Sure, the lid is a bit bendy but...

Lenovo Legion 5 review (2021 model, Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3050Ti)

So I'm still looking for that laptop to replace the one my wife dropped. After trying the Dell Inspiron 5155 first, my next target was the Lenovo Legion

great build quality ; good keyboard and trackpad ; good screen ; nice CPU performance and alright GPU ; lots of upgrade options ; decent battery life, especially if you can find an 80Whr model ; competitively priced

lousy webcam ; subpar speakers ; beware of potential issues with the included Realtek WiFi chip

Lenovo Legion 5 (15″ AMD, 2021) review – in search of perfection

Lenovo Legion 5 (Advantage Edition)

The Lenovo Legion 5 (Advantage Edition) is a new gaming laptop that features both an AMD CPU and AMD GPU. Here are our thoughts.

Marvellously powerful ; Sleek and suave looks ; Immense port selection ; Superb battery life for gaming laptop

FHD display is a little lacklustre ; Heavy design ; A little noisy

The Lenovo Legion 5 (Advantage Edition) is a decent all-round gaming laptop. The combo of a Ryzen CPU and Radeon GPU make it a great option for AMD fans, with enough power to play modern games smoothly in 1080p. Alongside this sits a super-generous...
