Great that they are putting so much time and effort into their machines, I'm happy to see Lenovo doing what they do... But the price! Here in Denmark in terms of price it starts at about 1.7 modern gaming spec desktop computers, and the top of the line bells and whistles version costs 2.5 gaming desktop computers.

I'm glad they kept the fingerprint reader and glass trackpad, since those were removed from the regular Legion Pro 7 models this year (presumably to reduce costs from RTX 40 series and maybe provide a higher-tier Legion 9 model later). Unfortunately where I am in the US we won't be getting the 100% DCI-P3 display model in this video, which is a real shame because none of the other displays are as competitive with what's on offer from the likes of Asus ROG right now. I'm also definitely looking forward to the AMD version; hopefully you guys can get your hands on one of those down the line.

Thank you Alex for measuring the weight! Many reviewers don’t do it which is the important factor for portability and these slim gaming laptops. I was expecting Lenovo is wrong in advertising as they haven’t changed anything in chassis design compared to 2022 Slim.
I have a Legion from 2021, and I've enjoyed it. This is making me reconsider my oath to get a Framework as my next laptop.
I'm a big fan of the Lenovo Legion series and especially the Slim 7 models. I have the Slim 7 Gen 6 (IIRC) with a 5800h, RTX3060, 500gb NVME and 1440p 165hz IPS - I upgraded to 24gb of 3200 RAM and added a 1tb NVME, and frankly it's been great, with very few complaints. Battery life could still be better - one day we'll get something like this machine that can stretch out 10-12 hours of battery, and it would be nice to have more definitive control over CPU clocks/TDP and whether to use the iGPU or dGPU, in Lenovo software. But the screen and build quality and power stuffed into a tiny chassis are unmatched at the prices these drop to eventually.

I have the 7th generation model of this laptop, and I must say it's the best one I've ever owned due to its very good build quality. I opted for the i7 and 3060 variant, and even after a year of use, it still runs as smoothly and efficiently as the day I first opened it. The thing that I liked most is that unlike other gaming laptops, it doesn't have any unnecessary and cringy RGB lighting on the exterior. One major flaw of this laptop is its loud fans, which can become quite noisy even on the balance settings, let alone on the highest fan setting, making it inconvenient to use in quiet environments.

Giveaway link doesn't work for my Canadian address. Bugged maybe, considering the T&C's state it is open to Canadians?
I don't understand why Lenovo still isn't offering a 2-in-1 convertible option in the Legion line-up! It'd be best to make it only in the 14 inch versions IMO. As of now only ASUS ROG flow X13 is a proper high performance 2 in 1 laptop with a dGPU, but it's 2023 and we NEED more options in the "2 in 1 high performance laptop" segment!! (for clarity, I mean a 2 in 1 touchscreen laptop with dedicated GPU that can be rotated 360° amd be used as a tablet too) P. S. I'd need that for engineering. Productivity + dGPU for solidworks/CAD would've been a killer conbo!

2 in 1 are a thing of the past, the chassis design is very bulky for 1 thing. A 180 fold has a much slimmer design, the Lenovo slim 9i is proof of such.
will you review the 5i?
