Lenovo Legion 7i review

It doesn’t make any sense. And 2024 is going on. You get MUX switch on Lenovo laptop. You get DGPU, IGPU, IGPU only, Hybrid and all modes in Vantage. I will explain MUX switch in short. If you want more battery backup, Then keep the display output on IGPU.

 

If you want better performance, Then keep the display output on DGPU. If you want mix, Then keep it on hybrid. It works like this. As far as the keyboard is concerned, Legion True Strike gaming keyboard is available. It has U-shaped keys.

So, There is a difference in pricing. This is the webcam test of this laptop. And the mic is also being used of the laptop I am using a 1080P webcam. The quality of this webcam is good. Me and the webcam. The speakers of this laptop are like Legion speakers. They are neither too loud nor too quiet. It has 2 speakers of 2W each and are down firing. And the audio experience is pretty decent.

 

It has a feature called Toby. It has a lot of features. But, It has a big option for privacy and security. You can add custom images if you are not in front of the screen. You will get smart framing.

It is a rule in flights that you cannot carry anything with 100 Watt battery

 

It has a 99.9Wh battery. You must be thinking that it should be 100Wh. It is a rule in flights that you cannot carry anything with 100 Watt battery. So, They have to do 99.9Wh. So that if you travel, no one will stop you. Lenovo has added 99.9Wh battery. If your task changes, The battery backup can be increased or decreased. In terms of battery backup, Superb performance with a gaming productivity laptop.

 

You get a good battery backup. If you run this on IGPU mode. Because if you want good battery backup, You will definitely not be able to do gaming. Because you don’t get full-fledged performance.

 

CPU and GPU don’t push the power. I have told you in many videos that the FPS drops on the battery. So, Gaming laptops are not made for you. If you want gaming, You will have to do gaming on the plug-in. And if you turn off the keyboard backlight. 60-70% screen brightness and IGPU mode. So, You can easily get 7-8 hours of battery backup in basic tasks.

 

This is the only one in the market. Maybe with 99.9Wh. Is there anyone else? Tell me in the comments. So, This was the review of Lenovo Legion 7i. You can also consider it as Legion slim 7i. In which we get normally all the laptops. Like Predator, Omen, Legion 5i, 5i pro. This laptop is of a separate category. So, It is not even worth comparing. Because those laptops are thick. Weight is the same. They are made of polycarbonate. Even if the top lid is made of metal.

 

 

If you do gaming for 2-4 hours, And you want a thin laptop

 

Rest is made of polycarbonate. It has a fingerprint scanner, Toby sensor it has a full metal build. It has a Thunderbolt 4 port. There are some things here that target the productive and creative users. Those who do gaming. I am mentioning the productive and creative people first. Because such people don’t do gaming for a long time. Even if they do gaming, They don’t have much time in their life. If you ask me, They do gaming for 2-3 hours. So, This laptop is for those people. You can do gaming of any level.

 

You have seen the performance. But thermals become too hot. So, If you do gaming for 2-4 hours, And you want a thin laptop. I am not saying light, I am saying thin. Then you can consider this. If you want a thick laptop, Then you have other options in the market. Like Legion Pro series or Predator, I mean the full-fledged laptops that we review. And the drawback of this laptop is, It is a metal build. Because of which, It gets hot quickly. And it also gets cold quickly.
