      Lol I'm getting negged by my funny detractors. But good thing I always just laugh at them for saying things like:

      1. RTX 4050 "deal" for $1000 is a "good deal"

      2. RTX 4060 "deal" for $1300 is a "good deal"

      But do tell.

      • Hi. Thanks for your comments. Have been following some of your comments and you seem to know a lot about laptops.
        Could you please suggest a light weight but good battery life Laptop for yr 8 kid for her school that does not break the bank?

        • I'm not that guy but the answer depends on what you mean by "break the bank", give us a ballpark figure
          In my opinion, something like a refurbished DELL Latitude 5420 or 7320 with either an i5 or i7 CPU, 16GB RAM and preferably 512GB SSD for <$400 would be suitable for a year 8 kid

    • -2

      its a downgraded 5070 only has 8gb vram the normal 5070 comes with 12gb vram.

      • -1

        Yes it's the Mobile version. They downgrade the chips like crazy. For reference I got the RTX 4090 HP Omen laptop and the chip is actually an RTX 4080.

        • Apologies MM I misread your comment thinking you said mobile 4080 was same as desktop.
          Kungfuman doesn't seem to realise all mobile chips are cut down versions of their desktop counterparts

    • -4

      yeah apparently people get butt hurt when you mention OLED screens,…. like the switch 2 (cough cough) lol but I agree with you should be a much better display tech

      • -3

        These low people are still in there 90s. They never owned and never know what is oled. Only can negs

        • -4

          lol its like the people totally against teslas they have never drive nor owned one but they strongly hate teslas

          • -2

            @kungfuman: Spot on… Only sit behind the keyboard and tuk tuk tuk

        • +6

          No it's because it's unreasonable to expect an OLED on a 1550 budget gaming laptop

          • -4

            @OblFa: not unreasonable they need to stop pumping out sh!t products and start pumping out decent products with no exceptions, or limitations. Have a good product seems to be lost on people they just care about specs in a cheap little package.

    • +7

      where is your deal of 2.8k OLED 5070 GPU laptop for $1560? you are the second marshmall0w2 even marshmall0w2 said this is a good deal.

      • -1

        it makes you laugh they plus your comment about adding an oled but any one else mentions it lol they get neged because they mentioned OLED.

        • +2

          you don't even know why you two got neg. you get what you pay you can't get a 2.8k oled at this price.

        • -1

          Is oled too discriminating and a sensitive topic?

      • -1

        Thats why i said, i wished.

  • And 32gigs ram

    • +3

      Should be next year. This is among the top deals I've seen so far to date.

  • +13

    Great price for 5070

    • -4

      not really its a down graded version of it.

      • Even for the cut down version it's a good price.

        • -5

          its not because when you look at what you are getting its cheaper because you are getting less. Cuting down on the performance and function of the gpu makes it cheaper. also less hardware no big headsinks or fans to worry about.

          • +8

            @kungfuman: You should be comparing the price if this laptop against other equivalent laptops, not against a desktop GPU, because they are not the same and have never been

            • -4

              @DeToxin: you should never buy any tech based on price, it should always be based on needs and quality. Then look at price. Don't just compare prices based on paper specs.

              • +1

                @kungfuman: People usually budget a set amount for buying something. If someone needs a gaming laptop, this is probably the best spec they can get for $1.6k.

              • +4

                @kungfuman: Have you been dropped on your head or something?
                You're the one who was complaining about this gpu's specs.
                Everyone has a budget, and everyone should look at the options available to them at that budget.
                Comparing prices and specs is exactly what people should do. That doesn't mean they should ignore other things like build quality, thermal management or feature set.

      • We know.

  • Any thoughts on this for first time buying gaming laptop getting into pc gaming from playstation. Thanks in advance

    • I believe the playstation might outperform this laptop due to some optimisations and hardware graphics dedication. However, this is decent enough, though it would still be thermally throttled like crazy. That 245 W power supply instills confidence but like the 60 Wh battery is suspect (though of course power is not capacity).

      • +3

        thermally throttled like crazy

        It depends on the cooling system. Legions have excellent cooling. Not sure how their more budget LOQ compares but it shouldn’t be too difficult to keep an i7, 5070 cool.

        That 245 W power supply instills confidence

        Power supply is not related to thermal performance. It will not be power limited at the very least.

        but like the 60 Wh battery is suspect

        Battery isn’t relevant if you’re trying to get max performance. You need to be plugged in to not be power limited

        • -2

          Battery isn’t relevant if you’re trying to get max performance. You need to be plugged in to not be power limited

          Yeah that's more or less right and hence why I said the 245 W charger instills confidence. However, it's incomplete. Max performance is still either bios-locked, chip-locked, or other software/hardware-locked. Plugging in doesn't get you the fullest potential at a stable, steady rate. It gives you a steady performance for a bit and then throttles.

          • +2

            @marshmall0w2: You seem to be confusing two different types of performance limitations.

            Max performance is still either bios-locked, chip-locked, or other software/hardware-locked.

            Yea, this is power limits. Depending on the design, the laptop vendor may limit the maximum power draw of the components either as a way of reducing the cost of the laptop or due to a design decision to keep the laptop thin/light/small.

            It gives you a steady performance for a bit and then throttles

            What you describe here sounds like thermal throttling which is what occurs when the laptop components are reaching high temperatures and as a safety feature will reduce power draw until it drops to a safe temperature (then rinse and repeat). In this case the laptop is running full performance then cutoff due to inadequate cooling.

            This happens either due to poor cooling design (thankfully much less common now) or the laptop is in need of maintenance (dry thermal paste, dust clogged fans/vents).

            To get back to your point about the 245W power brick, you’re correct it doesn’t guarantee there isn’t any power limitations but it seems unlikely that they would bother including a higher power (and more costly) power supply if they have limited the power.
            It certainly doesn’t guarantee there won’t be thermal throttling either but as I mentioned above, it’s far less common nowadays and Lenovo’s other designs are usually rock solid.
            Still has nothing to do the battery either way.
            Checking some reviews would be wise for any purchase of this value

    • +1

      A cooling pad is a must for a gaming laptop, otherwise they thermal throttle.
      You need to use the supplied power brick, don't use a dock supply since it won't have enough power and will throttle back.
      Be aware that laptop parts are not equal to desktop parts. Laptop is trading portability for everything else.
      You will probably still buy a monitor for the desk, plus real keyboard and mouse and gamepad.
      This is a good deal as far as laptops go.

      • A cooling pad is a must for a gaming laptop, otherwise they thermal throttle.

        Not all laptops, but it’s not a bad idea to have the extra ventilation even if you’re not hitting the thermal limits.

    • +3

      @Randomoz buy a gaming desktop unless you really really need a laptop.

      The desktop is faster, cheaper, more reliable, upgradeable, and much easier to fix if you do have a problem.
      You get to choose a much better mouse and keyboard, and a massive monitor.

      Gaming laptops sacrifice everything to be laptops.

      • +4

        You get to choose a much better mouse and keyboard, and a massive monitor.

        You can use all of those with a laptop too…

    • this will all depend on what games you play.

    • +1

      Do you need it to be a laptop or could you have a desktop instead? Because you're going to be paying a lot more for a laptop. You could build a very capable desktop for this price

  • +1

    Pretty solid, pity it's a 17 incher. Also the whole Intel and ram speed thing but lots of bang for the buck.

  • +7

    looks to be one of the better value laptops seen in a while, not bad

    too bad the 5070 is 8GB VRAM, would be better if they came as 12gb or even 10gb

    • even a 4060 laptop is similar price as this one.

  • +1

    Awesome price for a 5070, i7. Don't expect to game without plug in power or use the PC for long unplugged without eco settings.

  • Was about to buy, though it was a legion

    Don't forget topcashback

      outlet so no cashback

      I don't think you can get cashback from the outlet store

      • Okay scrap that sorry guys

        • +3

          But still worth a try, you won't lose anything

    thanks OP, it was $1.9k yesterday

  • Why so cheap! That's amazing!!!

  • +2

    Take off that L plate young blood - nice deal!

  • +2

    Does Lenovo refurb = new looking machine? There are so many of them and some of them are Intel Gen 10/11/12. Will they have new batteries?

  • 2.9kg

    • It's mostly a tradeoff for being a gaming laptop
      If the gaming laptop comes with a lightweight cooling system, it will likely throttle like crazy

  • +1

    That is a cracking deal on a high spec 5070 laptop. Given it is a 1080p screen, you are probably not going to run into many issues with it being an 8 GB card. Great first deal!

  • 2.9kg

    Hefty fella

  • I already have Legion 5 pro 3070 but if I didn't then I would buy this in an instant!

    • sale your old one and buy this one

      • I imagine the build quality will be a step backwards from the Legion.

    • same for me, the LOQ screen is a big downgrade but this LOQ is very cheap compare to me paying $2k 3 years ago

  • I was not considering buying a laptop but this was way too good to pass up (even though I have a desktop with a 3080 Ti) - can use this for gaming when I'm at friends' places or in my air-conned room where my desktop isn't.

  • Awesome price for a 5070

  • -1

    let down by the full HD display on a 17 inch

    • For a 5070 with 8GB of VRAM I'm not too fussed with it - prolongs the longevity of the machine for running games at native resolution

    • You can always use a monitor at home

  • this does seem a pretty good price !!
    ticks almost all my boxes

    • what box does it not tick

      • ram and OLED I guess

        • 16GB is a bit tight in 2025 but 24GB seems plenty unless you have memory heavy tasks like video editing
          Screen could be a bit nicer but for the price is alright

  • That's really cheap, weird its not a legion tho

    • -1

      LOQ is legion

      • Not the same.

        LOQ is like the Samsung "FE" versions where specs isn't as high e.g. 24gb ram and 1080p monitor

        • thanks, ood to know

  • Never buy Lenovo laptop ever again!
    These laptop Motherboard died just after few years, was quoted $2000 to replace.

    • Metabox for the win! ~7+ years and still going strong!

  • It's SOLD OUT! It still says "Almost sold out, act now!" but I clicked "Add to Cart" and it says "cannot be added to cart because it's out of stock" :(

    • Just wait a few months and you'll buy it used for half the price. I just bought an Acer Nitro 5 RTX4060 used for $500

      • Ooo may I ask from where?

        • -1

          I got it through FB marketplace; and bought this late last year, believe it or not. The seller had no idea what they were selling. The Nitro 5 have several GPU configs, and when I told him to send a pic of the part number on the bottom of the laptop, I searched then ran and got it. FB can be crap experience, but you can get bargains if you know what to look for & filter out the seller.

  • Eligible for cash back?

  • Is there a reason none of these never have thunderbolt?

  • Wish I needed a laptop

  • +3

    Really good deal for the price. Congrats to those who got one!

  • I can't believe they've paired a 1080p 17.3" 300nits screen with an RTX 5070. I'd rather pay more and get a much better screen, and I did last year.

    • +1

      The GPU may sound impressive, however the VRAM is suffice for 1080p …. for now. For this price definitely worth it where some are reaching $2.5K

      • My 8GB RTX 4070 is working well with my 2560 x 1600 laptop screen, text when I am not playing games is also very clear. One of the benefits of higher resolutions is that you can downscale and get the performance, but you cannot get the clarity of text and images with lower resolutions.

        • Agree. Good point

    • +2

      There is nothing wrong with 1080p on 17" laptop screen. There are so many deals posted of 1080p 21"/24" monitors

      If you need more for gaming then get a monitor with whatever resolution/refresh rate you want.

      • "f you need more for gaming then get a monitor with whatever resolution/refresh rate you want."
        Swap out the laptop panel? Seems it would be smarter to get the right screen at the beginning.

        Yes, some people don't want higher resolutions, I think it is a poor pairing, a decent GPU with a poor screen. It isn't just the relatively low resolution, but 300nits is also shit. Personally, I'd rather take a hit on the GPU and CPU performance, and get a better screen since that is what I am looking at when using it.

        • Laptop screens are not plug and play when it comes to higher resolutions due to internal electronics and voltages. Unless the exact same laptop has an option for higher res screen. Plus warranty will be void if you open up the case and screen bezel as they usually break tabs.

          • @vinni9284: Which is why I said "it would be smarter to get the right screen at the beginning."

            They said "If you need more for gaming then get a monitor with whatever resolution/refresh rate you want" but that doesn't really help too much with a laptop unless you are not using it as a portable device and connecting it to a monitor and keyboard. Budget options are great, like if someone can only afford or need a 1080p 24" monitor, that is fine, but I think 17.3" 1080p 300nits screen is a poor match to the performance of a RTX 5070. I'd rather have a 1440p 450 nits screen and take a hit on performance with the GPU and CPU if money was an issue. That is only my opinion though.

            • +1

              @FabMan: It seems like you are well versed of IT hardware configs, therefore we all know that the selling point for this laptop is the GPU. They chop and change specs to lure in the customer. You win on one thing and lose on the other. If you want everything to align, then pay top dollar as they all play the game.

              • +1

                @vinni9284: Oh I definitely agree with you regarding their selling tactics, but I want to share my belief that balance in specs is better than one stellar spec, also that a decent quality screen is nothing to sniff at. Having to shut all outdoor daylight out so that you can see the screen sucks, also looking at blurry text also sucks. So I'd prefer a system with a slower CPU and GPU meaning I had to play on medium settings instead of high than not being able to see the screen due to a reflection behind me blocking what I can see or struggling to look at blurry text. We all have our preferences.
