Are you a businessman who travels a lot and loves gaming? Are you an engineering student who needs a powerful laptop you can use for school and recreation? This is THE laptop you want if you are someone who wants an absurd raw amount of performance while not attracting any unwanted attention.

I have always despised the huge obnoxious logos, blinding RGB lights, and aggressive name brand marketing to cater to gamers with inflated prices. This is the exact opposite - unless you KNOW what the Legion series is or have the RGB lighting on the keyboards on, this just looks like your regular work laptop. But make no mistakes: it's packing serious hardware under the hood.

Assuming Lenovo took notice of input from LTT, the good airflow is a nice feature to have. With 330 watts of power from the adapter, it is a significant amount of heat to dissipate. With that being said, I have no problem playing games like Cyberpunk 2077 on max and it feels AMAZING.

The only complaints I have are limited battery life (to be fair, this is true for almost all gaming laptops) and finicky Lenovo software. The "AI" engine does not reliably recognize a game is demanding high performance, and it throttles power, so you have laggy gameplay. Make sure to switch over to "Performance" thermal mode in the Vantage app manually.
