      $350 saving isnt much after a model is 12 months old? I would say 2.5k last year is better value than this now.

            @Laryy: I believe that is common with the Realtek WiFi in these laptops. I don't use the wifi on mine.
            A lot of people change the WiFi adaptor to an Intel AX200 or Intel AX210 ($30 - $40) and have a much more stable WiFi experience.

      for me, intel
      you can upgrade ram and ssd later (which will be cheaper than today)- if you dont need it like right now
      but you cant upgrade your usb to thunderbolt 4

      but many will disagree … im not expert anyway

      • Circly on 29/07/2022 - 16:28

        Thought AMD is better for cooling. Will the Intel throttle?

    • Iceman82 on 29/07/2022 - 16:29
      +3

      Memory and SSD are easily upgraded, but not CPU. So, which CPU do you want?

      If you need Intel and Thunderbolt 4, get the lesser specs and put the $100 towards the RAM or SSD upgrade you might want. Or if you've already got RAM or SSD use that.

      My AMD version, these exact specs, is doing fantastically. As another user said, it replaced my old desktop and copes with everything I've thrown at it.

      I prefer having the 32GB RAM and the 1TB SSD over Intel and saving $100, as $100 won't cover the upgrade cost without the hassle of trying to sell off the included gear. I want my 50+ tabs in my browser, and multiple apps and windows all over the place, so 32GB is awesome headroom. 512GB and even 1TB for games can get eaten up quick - I assume you'll game on this machine - so go for more.
      Edit: note that it can take 2 SSDs - can just add another. I'd still prefer 1TB + extra over 512GB + extra

  • Justahappymortal on 29/07/2022 - 18:09

    I’m guessing this is an awesome laptop for AAA games? (Assassins Creed, The Quarry, Horizon), also plays valorant and apex (fps games) so a decent fps would be great

    If someone says yes, I’m immediately biting the bullet. Was saving for a desktop but portability matters to me the more I think about it so i might grab this instead

    • DASHCAM NOW DUDE on 29/07/2022 - 18:33

    • edisonAU on 29/07/2022 - 20:04

      This would be an overkill for light gaming. However I also have this laptop since December and it is fantastic for gaming. Battery is not the best though. If you want really good battery life, get other laptops (maybe a Macbook Air/Pro).

      • Cmaz on 29/07/2022 - 20:22

        Hi i already got 2020 air and recently need to display two 32 inch monitors for work. This seems to do it without any additional display dock unlike air but really concern about battery life

        • Kyx on 29/07/2022 - 22:22

          If you're using it with 2x 32 inch monitors, won't you be near a power outlet anyway? Gaming laptops are not ideal if you want longer battery life.

    Can any share any thoughts/experience on what Lenovo support is like? I'm tossing up this or a Dell XPS. My experience with Dell support is extremely good. I've had an XPS 15 for nearly 4 years now, a year ago had an issue with sound, tech came out replaced the sound module and while he was looking at it, ended up replacing whole motherboard, keyboard and touch pad following day. Pretty ended up with a new laptop after that.
    Looking for a new work laptop and this new laptop has to last me 4 years as well, worried Lenovo support won't carry me through.

    • Pizdets on 30/07/2022 - 09:01

      I bought this exact Lenovo and it had issue with wifi. They came over and replaced it no worries. The wifi module that is.

      • nfusion on 08/08/2022 - 14:33

        Ta, bought it with their premium care. Hope I don't ever have to find out if their service is as good as Dell.

  • cook99 on 29/07/2022 - 22:12

    If we're smart people can chain that bonus $150 credit and share the extra saving?

    Person A buys and gives them credit to person B for $75?

    Or just needs to be person a buys the laptop for person B, might be too messy

    • tighttighttight on 29/07/2022 - 22:41

      That's way too messy with warranties.. and trusting strangers.

      Here's an idea.

      Why dont you purchase 1.. get the $150. Purchase a second one with the $150.
      Then cancel 1st order before they send it.

      Off course.. Lenovo might refuse and you might end up with 2 laptops…

      • cook99 on 29/07/2022 - 23:08

        If I do this 14 times I get a free laptop, or 14 $2200 laptops

        • CodeXD on 29/07/2022 - 23:26

          Pretty sure you only get the $150 rewards once you've received the order. When I bought my Legion 5 Pro earlier this year, I had $0 balance until I actually received the laptop. Otherwise it stays pending.

      • lulzenberg on 31/07/2022 - 12:46

        would have been the 16gb/512gb ssd version - I believe that is the version with the RAM that hampers gaming performance slightly. Might be worth checking the speeds vs the jarodtech video Believ3r as if they have the readings, you can get a fair chunk of performance increase from swapping the ram out.

  • eggboi on 30/07/2022 - 11:11

    This is a great deal. No doubt the replacement model will be a small bump in specs and they'll jack the price back up to $3200 or more. Get this while you can. Just test the shit out of it when it arrives to make sure you don't have a dud screen / trackpad etc. Lenovo is excellent value but pretty worrying QC at times.

    • mantichoral on 30/07/2022 - 12:24

      Confirm Lenovo QC concern. Bought a Yoga 7i, fans droned fast, unvarying and continuously even in sleep, Lenovo support couldn't fix it, refunded.

      At this price, I'd expert touch sensitivity. No touchscreen? no fingerprint reader? No Thunderbolt?

          My partner ended up buying one, it looks like it registered, but only for ~80 - 7% should have been closer to 160, so it's like it only did 3.5% which is odd

          • lulzenberg on 01/08/2022 - 16:04

            @lulzenberg: Update: Cashrewards has asked for a copy of the invoice to investigate, but as that can't be generated until it's shipped and the shipping date has changed from Today to an estimate of Wednesday (here's to hoping that actually stays that way), it won't be getting looked at for a bit.

      • lulzenberg on 02/08/2022 - 13:30

        Have just had cashrewards come back and update the tracking on my partner's from 3.5% to 7% (it was done after the 14% cut off). They have said that it will still come down to Lenovo okaying it though in the end (90-100 days from now lol)

    A mate has just gone to use their quoted price today on this model and it won't let him due to there not being enough stock, but the website still says its ready to ship - I think at one point there were over 1100 sold in one day during the sale. I've got a feeling we're looking at delays here hah. Shipping for my partner's order has already changed from the 1st of August to the 3rd and they haven't even opened for business yet.

      Did their quote contain customised parts? Did they modify anything when they received the quote?

      A lot of the time lenovo pre builds specific configurations so they can ship them out fast. So if you customise outside of the pre build they will need to custom make it, leading to weeks of delay.

        No changes, just a preapproved quote containing the model in this post with SAVE added. Won't let him turn it into an order as it says no stock. Here's hoping they didn't oversell it on the weekend.
