if this is the type of tech illiterate and dumbed down broken English's type of "reviews" that u like. that doesn't mean the production value of anything this guy makes is even remotely close to a real tech reviewers channel. that means your just as retarded as this guy making this videos taking the intelligence level completely out of the equation so that the people that watch these videos and get their purchasing information from. can understand tech on such a retarded and non ligetimate level

BTW, I know you probably know since you had the previous version, but make sure you enable Over Drive (drops the response time to 3ms for the display) and if you disable hybrid mode and go dGPU only, you get about 15% better performance in games. Also, enable Dolby Sound in Vantage, it makes the speakers sound much better.

Alienware m15 R2 owner with Tobi - I actually only use Tobi for easier navigation with the track pad. For me it makes more sense then a touch screen on a laptop. For example if you are clicking on the windows icon (bottom left); you just look at the icon then long touch anywhere on the touch pad and your mouse curser will automatically go to where your eyes are looking. Although this doesn’t always works flawlessly.

If you game, there is probably nothing better than thi machine. Effective cooling, powerful enough to enjoy FS2020 maxed out or Cyberpunk at max settings, beautiful, bright screen at 165Hz and the list goes on. However, if you need a general purpose computing tool that has to be light and portable, look elsewhere. It's heavy and the power brick alone is HUGE (300W!!!!) and heavy (probably weighs a kilogram). Other than that, I've been enjoying this PC a lot and it looks like it will last for many years to come.

i think this has to be my favourite review it removed all the faff and went straight to the point

Nice! Time to wait for it to get down to my budget of £100

Tobii Head tracking is best in Simulator games. Farming Simulator, Star Citizen, Flight Simulators, Etc. Pretty cool for that if it works as well as head tracking with the actual Tobii hardware. I will test it when I get my Legion 7 to see how it works for simulator games!

Nice review, as usual, but I'll stick with my M17 R4.

Tobii is VERY useful in Flight SImulators such as DCS or Microsoft Flight Simulator. My guess is that the reason that the Legion 7 DOESN'T have eye-tracking is due to it having a 720p web camera. Tobii does have devices that allow for accurate eye tracking, that are on my personal wishlist whenever I recover financially from getting this beast...

have you had any unintentional cursor movement or click when you’re typing? I see the touchpad is located quite to the left. I haven’t decided to buy the Legion 7 because of that… wonder if it is a real issue

Ended up ordering this, but with a 3060 and a 11800h. I mostly player easier to run games on my laptop, Fallout NV, Left 4 Dead 2, at most Black Ops 3 or Destiny 2, so I didn’t need anything more than a 3060, and I figure with the lower tier GPU it’ll be a bit quieter anyways.

It's hard to find one in stock but i was interested in the 5800h with Rtx 3070 cause you really don't need more than that, It offers good performance and good price. It's one of the only laptops that near perfect, 1440p screen, Nice cooling, Good performance, AMD Cpu which makes battery last longer, And nice RGB and design. But did they fix the stupid Corsair iCUE RGB battery drain problem?, They had that last year year and also in this one aswell, How did they not fix a huge problem like that? Does your battery drain fast when the RGB is on?

8:39 the entire ASUS gaming laptop lineup (ROG & TUF) (especially their 2022 ones) lineup via Panel Power Saver.... does it automatically as well when you unplug it.....

What would you say about heat upper the arrows keys? Where vram is placed Cause in my Legion 7 its hot as hell

You'll get a good 3 more hours of battery life if you disable Corsair's Icue software, at the expense of your custom lighting effects. Corsair really needs to fix their software, they've had the same problem for years...

I also made sure hybrid mode was deactivated as soon as I received my unit to boost the GPU's performance.

I'm sure enabling hybrid mode and setting your panel to 60hz will have much better results though.
