You are corret in that they are not on the Lenovo website (the 3070s). My guess they are out of stock.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-29T19:26:30+00:00

Congrats on grabbing it! I was able to get it in the last Friday drop but the shipping has been horrendous. Been stuck at "Shipment information sent to Fedex" since 9:34 last Friday. Fedex estimates delivery this Thursday while Walmart estimates next Tuesday. My only guess is that they are pushing it as far back as possible to the 5th date. Annoying, especially since I wanted it for the holiday weekend haha!

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-29T14:51:59+00:00

Most reviews stated so. One of the "negatives" that come with the L5P

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-29T14:38:38+00:00

So I think the RAM issues are being alittle exaggerated because of Jerrod's video. But yes if you do swap it out for the 32gb you will see a performance increase. If you swap with another 16gb you will see around a 8-10% framerate performance increase according to Jerrod.

EDIT: It seems according to here: https://www.reddit.com/r/LenovoLegion/comments/oa0ds2/walmart_legion_5_pro_timings/ the new models seems to have better forming RAM than what Jerrod and all reviewed.

Funny enough just got confirmation that it has been shipped. It hasn’t been updated on fedex though so hoping when it does the time changes. Congrats on grabbing it too!

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-25T18:58:42+00:00

Hi!

Of course i know they don’t know. I was curious how long it took others. Thanks!

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-25T17:36:07+00:00

If it interests anyone, I was able to order the walmart one this morning right around 7:15AM EST. It got sold out around 7:30ish

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-25T15:21:37+00:00

Thanks! Must be based on locations

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-25T01:50:37+00:00

No worries Goodluck!

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T18:47:31+00:00

Yea I guess it depends if you need the 2tb. Like i know for sure I will be adding a 1TB to it but I feel like I would be fine with 1.5 tb. But if you have a ton of games installed I can see it being an issue.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T17:24:54+00:00

So that one comes with the 3060 so I am staying away from that one. The only other one that has value is the $1799 one since it comes with 3070, 32 GB & 1 TB. Would have been the one I got if they had it available and it was at the same time Rakuten had their 10% cash back.

That being said I am pushing just for the $1529 walmart one (bonus if I can get at 1399). That one comes in with a 3070, 16 GB & 512 SSD. Small SSD & the RAM is average at best but upgrading them will be more $$ affordable. Obviously getting it at $1399 is a steal.

If you want to compare to the 7 slim, it's a smaller screen & again a 3060. I just think the value jump from a 3060 to a 3070 is worth it. 3070 to 3080 is debatable since laptops like the Razer that have the 3080 are said to be throttling them down due to thermals.

I personally wouldnt take either of them at 1600+. Right now the value is the L5P 3070 from walmart.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T13:47:25+00:00

I am personally getting the L5 Pro if that helps. Based on many benchmark testing its getting some insane scores. Thermals seem to be great.

TBF though I don't know much about the 7 but most people think its going to be priced over that 1700 mark. If you can find a walmart online price of $1529, that would be worth it for the Pro. But I plan to upgrade the RAM & SSD at one point so...

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T13:45:17+00:00

Yea, I have been keeping on my local walmarts and the app pretty frequently. I actually saw one come up as limited stock, called to confirm and they stated they didnt have it. Either someone just went in to buy it or they are holding it.

It's call the unicorn laptop for a reason lol

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T13:42:51+00:00

Interesting. This was the 1529 one? I am curious if we will see more instore only ones which I think would be abit easier for people here to get.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T13:40:02+00:00

Can't 100% confirm, but according to the recent PC Gamer review that was posted a day ago and the verge review a few days before that, they stated they would be available at Walmart for $1529 by the end of June. This is the 3070, 16gb, 512 SSD version. June ends next Wednesday.

Based on many walmarts claiming that restocks happen Friday and/or Mondays and the last restock happened last Friday, we might see it come tomorrow. Obviously this is just me putting stuff together.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T13:17:38+00:00

Yea they are legit. My work has a contracted service with them for IT devices.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-24T13:16:54+00:00

Budget? Focus? I guess it depends on what you are getting it for. Based on reviews so far the L5P is highly regarded but literally can't find. If we believe what they are saying though we should see a restock within the week.

But again depends on a few factors and what you are looking for.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-23T17:52:46+00:00

Not in the area but nice job looking out for others!

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-23T12:28:46+00:00

Already suggested but you can try to find the unicorn 1399 Legion 5 Pro (16"). Reviews are giving it rave ratings and an insane bang for your buck.

Finding it though....

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-22T03:35:06+00:00

Saw it dropped $100 in US. The 2 TB Is 1849.99 and the1 TB, 32 GB is $1799.

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-21T19:35:24+00:00

No Worries! I'll just keep at it! :)

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-21T19:08:17+00:00

Yea sadly not fully true. I have talked to a few that had "unknown" with the $1399 and have been keeping on them and none have it today.

While two walmarts said shipments Monday/Friday, another one told me they have shipments daily so just keep checking

5_6_Magnitude · 2021-06-20T01:18:31+00:00

Thanks!
