About this deal

Finally, the CPUs run at ~25 W on battery as well, on the Balanced profile, with the fans still at <32 dB. The CPU performance on the battery is roughly what the system delivers on the Quiet mode when plugged in.

In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 18% of all devices are better. With six cores and twelve threads, the AMD Ryzen 5 5600H offers decently fast performance. However, the Lenovo Legion 5 17 cannot keep up with its octa-core competitors. The AMD Ryzen 5 5600H still performs well and the results are above the average for this CPU. This laptop's bottom panel is held in place by 10 Phillips-head screws. After you undo them, you need to pry the panel with a plastic tool and remove it from the chassis.2. Battery Health-Guard eliminates the harmful Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) and reduces the negative Blue Light which affects our eyes and body. Since it’s custom tailored for every panel, it manages to keep the colors perceptually accurate. Health-Guard simulates paper so the pressure on the eyes is greatly reduced.upgraded the ram to one slot 16gb dual rank, later ill add another one, upgraded the wificard to intel ax210

For our test deviice, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 mobile GPU serves as the graphics card. Due to the configurable power limit of 80 to 130 watts, the performance of different models can vary widely. Here, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 mobile GPU can consume up to 130 watts when set to performance mode via the Lenovo Vantage tool. As a result, it achieves excellent results in synthetic benchmarks. The Lenovo Legion 5 17 is only behind by a few percentage points compared to the much more powerful Schenker XMG Apex 17 M21. The screen is one of the main selling points of the Legion 5 Pro series over the competition in the mid-range segment. These are some solid results across the board. It pays to have a full-power Ryzen processor in here and a full-power RTX 3060. In theory, this RTX 3060 should go up to 130W of power, but in our tests, it only averaged up to 125W and rarely surpassed that level. Still, compared to the more limited 80-100W 3060s available in other mid-tier laptops, this option scores 7-12% higher in the GPU benchmarks. This panel is also very well suited for gaming, with a 165 Hz refresh rate, fast response times (yet not as fast as on the M16’s panel), and with the laptop offering a MUX and ActiveSync/GSync support between the Hybrid/dGPU available modes. We’ll get in-depth on these in the next section of this review.As far as the hardware goes, this series is built on a full-power AMD Ryzen Cezanne platform, with either 6Core Ryzen 5 5600H or 8Core Ryzen 7 5800H processors. My unit is the lower-specced Ryzen 5, which runs at around 56W sustained in CPU-heavy workloads on the highest power profile. The Ryzen 7 variants run at 75+W sustained in our tests. It perhaps doesn’t feel as nice as the Legion 5 Pro or Legion 7 lineups as this is entirely made out of plastic, but with a rougher finishing that feels stronger than the kind used on the previous Legion 5 generation, which Id’ expect should age well. It does show smudges and fingerprints on this dark-blue variant that we have here. Over here, this tested Ryzen 7 + RTX 3060 configuration is available in stores for around 1200 EUR, which is competitive for what you’re getting. The same goes for under 1200 GBP in the UK, and around 1400 EUR in Germany.

This profile aims to deliver better distinctness and clarity by keeping a flat gamma curve (2.20), native color temperature and perceptually accurate colors.

The layout is among the best you’ll find in a mid-range laptop these days, though. The main set of keys are full-size, the arrows are also all full-size keys and spaced out from everything around, and there’s also a NumPad section, with slightly narrower keys, but still well spaced and perfectly usable.

It’s armed with everything you need to dominate any lobby, including up to AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H mobile processors and NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 30 series graphics. For the Legion 5 17, Lenovo relies on a fast Samsung SSD. In this case, it has a capacity of 512 GB and uses the fast M.2 PCIe interface for data transfers. As our results show, however, this setup cannot quite keep up with the competition. At 512 GB, the capacity is not exactly massive, either. On a gaming laptop, we expect at least 1 TB of storage space. The main selling points are the sturdy all-metal build, the uncompromised IO and inputs, an excellent QHD+ 16:10 165Hz screen, as well as competent specs, with a full-power RTX 3060 and an 80Wh battery.

Lenovo Legion 5 17 with RTX 3060 in review: Strong gaming

The maximum temperature on the upper side is 42.2 °C / 108 F, compared to the average of 40.4 °C / 105 F, ranging from 21.2 to 68.8 °C for the class Gaming. Switching over to the Balanced profile, the Ryzen 7 stabilizes at 45W of power after a few runs. The fans spin at 43-44 dB in this case, and temperatures stabilize in the low-80s.That aside, there are also Intel-based versions of Legion 5i, built on Tiger Lake H45 hardware. Over here, those are more expensive than the AMD versions. Final thoughts- Lenovo Legion 5 It's understandable that we're in the era of tablets and 14"s, but I'm really having trouble imagining this much power in a slimmer body and with a reasonable price tag. I’m still not glad that there’s no setting (that I know off?) to enable automatic idle time for this keyboard; having to kill the light manually seems a bit rudimentary in this day and age. Still, I was actually surprised how punchy the colors are on this screen, especially when you pump up the brightness. I put this screen right next to the 4K 100% AdobeRGB panel of the XPS 15 and only at that point I could tell the differences between the two panels at high brightness, and they appeared much closer than I was expecting. Too bad I didn’t have a Zephyrus M16 to compare with, as that one offers a 450+ nits WQHD+ panel with 100% DCI-P3 color coverage. I’d expect that to be a better option for professionals, but this here should still do for most. Combined with Nahimic 3D audio that pinpoints footsteps in space, you’ll be able to see and hear any scrub headed your way before they even get within firing range.
