What Buyers Say

Lenovo Legion 5i 15.1" 83F00008US

82 out of 100 medium confidence 18 reviews

Users mostly praise the Lenovo Legion 5i for its excellent OLED display, smooth performance, and competitive price. The Intel Core Ultra processor paired with an RTX 5060 (or 5070) handles games and heavy workloads well. However, several reviewers note poor battery life (around 2 hours on Quiet mode), WiFi connectivity issues, and the need to keep GPU mode enabled for sustained performance. Overall, it's considered a solid gaming laptop for the price, with caveats about battery and software quirks.

Pros
  • Excellent OLED display
  • Smooth performance with Intel Core Ultra and RTX 5060/5070
  • Competitive price
  • High quality build
  • Runs demanding software (games, SolidWorks) well
Cons
  • Poor battery life (around 2 hours)

  • Bulky included charger
