The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i is probably the best 16" gaming laptop I've used this year. This Gen 9 Pro 7i packes the latest 14th-gen Intel Core i9 processor, with the RTX 4080 (175W), 32GB of RAM, and 2TB of SSD. This is probably the best bang for the buck gaming laptop I've used. Now, let's take a look at what its pros and cons are and whether or not you should pick one up yourself.
Check out the latest discounts on the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i here: www.lenovo.com...
Specs as reviewed: Intel Core i9 14900HX, 32GB RAM, 2TB SSD, RTX 4080 (175W)

Lenovo is a lot better of a brand than Asus. I’ve always enjoyed Lenovo products from personal laptops to the ones my work provided me with. Personal preference for sure on the screen. I actually prefer matte finish on displays because I can’t stand glare when using inside businesses or classes.

Yeah Lenovo is awesome at making laptops. You gotta see the new S24 Ultra from Samsung. It's glossy but the panel itself has this new coating on it that makes it less reflective. It's pretty sweet.

I ordered this exact laptop, it's scheduled for delivery on Wednesday. I'll fill you guys in on my thoughts when I've had a little time with it. I have to say, I'm very excited to go back to Lenovo. The Lenovo I had in college, was the best laptop I've ever had. I screwed up a couple of years ago and went with an HP Omen, bad mistake, it's been nothing but trouble, but I'm pretty sure I'll be more than happy with the 7i pro 4090.

I’m currently testing an Asus ROG Strix G18 RTX 4080 and I heard good things about the Pro 7i Gen 9. I decided to order one from Lenovo because after tax it was $2,800 USD for an RTX 4090 with discounts and promo codes. I really enjoy the Asus because of the 18” screen, but I decided that I’d rather sacrifice screen real estate for a better GPU. There aren’t many people covering this laptop, but the ones who have, show the CPU temps as regularly hitting 100c while gaming. That’s my primary concern with this laptop. I don’t care if the fans get very loud as long as the temps are kept in check. Anyway, thanks so much for this review. It’s definitely helping to alleviate my concerns about my purchase.

@@EldestCoont My Legion doesn’t arrive until around July 10th, so I can’t test it yet. I do plan on running everything at max settings and highest res when it arrives. The videos I’ve seen where it’s hitting 100c are with an uncapped frame rate, so maybe that is causing excessive strain on the CPU. GPU temps on the other hand look great. I’m guessing that’s because there’s LM on the GPU and not the CPU.

Love your videos, Mark. Small suggestion (not that you need my help; you are killing it and I've gotten to the point where I watch all your stuff) -- when you mention the brightness and only give 'peak' brightness, it would be helpful if you mention if that is for HDR only or is that the full panel brightness in SDR? I imagine peak brightness is not the brightness of the entire panel, which may be more important to a potential buyer (and definitely to a gamer). So a viewer like me is left wondering what the actual real brightness of the panel is. In fairness, we could just Google it, but it would still be helpful to have that info in the video. Have a great night man.

Hey Foxx!! Thanks so much for the input. I'll definitely take note and put any specs or graphics on screen while talking about the display in future videos. I find it very difficult to give exact numbers just cause not every panel is similar and could vary during production (I've experienced this first hand with other laptops and tablets) so I just give it a general spec number and if I see or notice anything weird, I'll call it out in video whether the display is dim or really bright or if I notice any color shifting or panel issues etc... But I appreciate the feedback 🙏🏼 - the panel on this laptop is awesome and definitely brighter than other IPS panels, about 500 nits sustained. Just wish it was glossy and had OLED.

Man, I'm still torn between the G16 4080 (vapor chamber) and Pro 7i 4080. Btw the G16 actually can do 125w instead of 115w if you really look into it. Maybe the performance desparity is not that massive enough to sacrifice the display, speakers, and portability. Im so frustrated between these two that I might just end up with a thinkpad P1 gen 7 for less performance, but great at everything else and durability unmatched.

@@ChillYeti interesting. Thing is in France we dont have as much choices of finding all pc models... if i come up with a 3080ti it will be probably second-hand.. and would be the same price almost as a 40 series... thats why the but... for ex you would still find a legion 7 3080 at 1700€ or more.. so why not go directly with a Legion 7I 9th gen brand new at 1900 if you feel me

Nice, review. Other reviewers butter up laptops too much. I just got this one. This laptop also has an AI chip. Do you know how to use that AI Chip? I want to use it for content-creation power saving on various intensive programs(video editing, ai upscaling, modeling)

Should I buy this one or legion 9i?

I've been testing out the Legion 9i (video coming soon) and this is one is pretty legit for its price. If you are gonna pick this up, feel free to buy it off the link in the description. It helps the channel a lot and can produce more reviews like the Legion 9i.

how come lenovo legion laptops are so popular and loved? i had so many issues with the one i had, i had to replaced my charger and charging port over 5 times in a span of 3 years, and now it cant be fixed any more, a friend of mine also had many issues with it, and even the hinges breaking, i understand they are built "well" and stuff but man i paid over 500€ on fixes for my legion in just 3 years. replacing charger alone each time was over 100€

I think as of late, Legion laptops have gotten better build quality wise, and that's true to most known OEM's nowadays. While not perfect and there could still be flaws per system, I hear Lenovo's support seems to be the best one.

Ive had a 2020 7i model. That thing like fell apart. The hinge breaking and I had to get Lenovo support. so that saved it. But now that I have this Laptop. Its sooo much better in terms of quality. Very solid. Only thing to watch out is the large vent holes. I accidentally put a USB A into a vent hole rather then port. xD
