I am emphasizing on utility only. You can check videos for gaming performance/benchmarks.
TL;DR: Good laptop (visual/build/components) but bad value for money. Add 15k extra investment (ram + SSD) to justify this purchase.
The important bits:
– This is a 1650 + 8GB ram package. 69k is too much for this config. Last gen 1660ti + 16GB is going for 72k from MSI
– HDD is 5400rpm. This drive’s performance sucks. Frequent app hangs and MMOs are unplayable from it.
– You cannot enter performance mode without charger plugged in.
– Unlike most other laptops, this one throttles your CPU instead of reducing the fan speeds. So, forget about getting heavy work/gaming done while unplugged.
Minor issues:
– Buzzing noise in earphone (common issue due to internal placement)
– The back-lighting will fall on your face if you use an external keyboard in front of laptop.
Why make this purchase:
– Excellent thermals due to four air vents and good vent design. Stays cool and quiet (but throttles your CPU. no way around that)
– Very well-built and good looking chassis. It is more compact than most other gaming laptops, without sacrificing heat outlets.
– ^ Ports on the back feel premium and professional.
– Lenovo warranty is extensible till 4 years (On-site support).

Batter is good
Keyboard is great
Sound is great
Flap opens with one hand
Good build quality
Camera is really poor , will have to buy separate for video calls but the physical shutter is awesome
Overall – great product

No complaints about the product. It was exactly the same as I expected.
But there is some problem about the warranty. One year warranty period was being shown as “5 months remaining”. This is absolutely not acceptable. If this issue is not solved by Amazon, I shall not buy laptop, mobiles, and similar items in future.
Otherwise, Amazon is good for small items, where warranty is not an issue.

Battery without charging will last for 2-3 hours when you are in gaming mode, overall a good laptop, if the battery life is enhanced then this can get all 5 stars
Pros:
Laptop keys refresh rate is as promised in the description
High end Graphics can be easily managed
Fan cooling working smooth, controlling the MD heat
Update on battery, it became stable after using it for 3 months (3-5hrs of battery life for now on full charge), shall update it, if something goes wrong from battery side

I will tell the cons first.
1. 250 nits display. It’s bad. It’s really really bad. If you are outside or inside a room on a sunny day you will struggle to see the screen properly even in 100% brightness. This lap needed 350 or 400 nits display. My 9 year old Lenovo G580 was better than this.
2. Touchpad. Another disappointment. If you are not using external mouse this touchpad will make you crazy. Still I couldn’t figure out how it works properly.
3. Camera quality is poor.
Now pros
* Superb built quality
* nice keyboard
* camera privacy shutter
* SSD boots in seconds. It’s awesome
* Unless you are gaming, battery is good. I saw many reviews complaining about battery. But I never faced any issues. If gaming you have to plug in and play. In normal use I am getting battery upto 6 hours.
* Decent sound
* 120hz. Games are super cool.
——————————————-
After 3 weeks usage:-
I am loving this laptop more and more each day. It’s superb.
* I am tuned to the touchpad. Now I make errors only once in a while.
* Brightness is bad. Can’t see anything in day light.
* when We play heavy games fan sound is high. I always use headset while playing. So I won’t hear the sound. The fan noise is high that one day I saw my mom searching everywhere to find from where some hissing noise is coming. 😆😆.
* if not playing games I am really happy with the battery. Easily it lasts for 6-8 hours on normal use.

The media could not be loaded.
I like the laptop overall design…minimalistic & sturdy & 4 wide air vents
Thermals are great… No doubt about it
Gaming performance –
Gta5 @ ultra settings ~40 – 50 fps
Gta4 @utra settings ~60 – 90 fps
RDR2 @ high settings ~20 – 30 fps
AC Revelation @ultra settings ~60 to 80 fps
Battery performance – average (its gaming laptop comes with 170 w adapter) hence one less star
Laptop have three modes:
Performance mode – red color power button
Balance mode-white color
Battery saving mode-blue color
You can manage these modes via lenovo vantage s/w
Auto upgraded from win 10 to win 11….thanks to Windows.
I decided to purchase this laptop because of service support reputation of lenovo. Otherwise you may explore Asus laptops which seem cheaper by ~3-4k inr.
Final verdict – recommended (its little expensive for similar specs but it’s for good build quality)
This review i have updated after using laptop for 2 months
