Lenovo Legion 5 15.6″ 144Hz Ryzen 7-4800H 16GB RAM 256GB SSD GTX 1660 Ti 6GB Lenovo

★★★★★ Great value for casual gamers - fast graphics, POWERFUL AMD processor, enough RAM and good SSD for $900. So far (about 2 weeks) it hasn't gotten warm, much less hot, while gaming, was a breeze to set up and load files and settings from my old laptop, has performed reliably, and looks and sounds great. And the camera isn't as bad as some reviews say it is, good enough for Zoom, and has a physical privacy shutter. The Keyboard is a delight too; good tactile feel and I like the understated look - no childish RGB lights, just simple white backlight with off/dim/bright settings.

★★★★☆ The laptop has been performing very well since I've got it, the thermals are great and it runs really quiet all the time.If you're using it for light work, when you place your hands by the vents, the air actaully feels colder than the surroundings(I live in a tropical climate). The screen looks really good as well. I have two main gripes though hence the 4 stars. The first is the fact that the battery lasts only about 3 hours for me, this is just from browsing the internet. I've seen other people say they get 5 hours doing the same so I don't know why I'm only getting 3. My other issue is linux support. I use Fedora as my daily driver and dev machine but the touchpad, screen brightness control, and power management does not work. Other than those two issues, this is the best laptop I've ever owned.

★★★★★ Ryzen is an absolute beast and this laptop is my pick for 2020 laptop of the year. 300 not brightness screen (mine goes up to 375ish) very solidly build and the 8 Core 4800H is a absolute beast of a laptop. For the price? This is perfect.
