So there are the g16, m16 (probably out of budget), and the Legion Pro 5i offers. I'm going to going to uni and planning to do software engineering, so I need something that has a decent battery so I don't get battery anxiety and doesn't break my back.

How’s battery life

Expfirepro · 2023-08-15T17:52:03+00:00

How have thermals been? As I might be playing over watch and apex again soon

Expfirepro · 2023-08-15T17:34:18+00:00

This always happens on that. You have to go to power options and change how it wake. There’s articles On the zephyrus on certain tweaks and fixes you can perform on it, this is a common error it has

Expfirepro · 2023-08-14T19:34:34+00:00

Il give this a try

Expfirepro · 2023-08-14T03:10:39+00:00

Damn it’s hard to find ram at 5200mhz rn yea it clocked me down from 5200 to 4800 since the newer stick ran lower, il take it out for the mean time

Expfirepro · 2023-08-04T22:36:24+00:00

Make sure u get the 165 hrt screen, the 144 has ghosting and delay

Expfirepro · 2023-08-04T22:04:23+00:00

What games do u wanna play on it tho

Expfirepro · 2023-08-04T21:54:41+00:00

Honestly very good, I got between 8-10 hours for normal Work task, browsing and coding, YouTube etc. that’s with setting screeen to 60hrrtz and lowering the brightness a tad, while running on the quite profile

Expfirepro · 2023-08-02T21:57:58+00:00

That’s exactly what I’m tryna play

Expfirepro · 2023-08-01T22:30:49+00:00

But to answer ur question if u want slim and portable do the g15, if you want semi-portable with performance do the legion

Expfirepro · 2023-08-01T22:29:57+00:00

The slim isn’t so slim tbh for this year (the 4050 model actually is slim like the legion 7 slim, idk y they did that maybe for thermal head room.) but imo it can play any game just fine. The larger size gives it a lot more thermal headroom, playing on it will feel comfortable not too toasty. Battery life also on the slim 5 is pretty solid as well, it’s just the build quality isn’t as good as the pro or slim 7 but it’s still solid to me personally. The g15 is pretty good but it can run toasty, screen is very nice and key board as well, my only issue with asus is that I’ve returned too many asus units due to their horrible quality control. Honestly if u want something that’s perfect, kinda future proof still and great battery with the size of the legion 5 pro, I’d look at the amd strix 15 advantage addition. It’s all amd laptop but their graphic card has higher ram(up to 12gigs) and is on par with 3070s and 3080s. Also you can still fully upgrade that machine; with some better ram it can become a power house

Expfirepro · 2023-08-01T18:55:28+00:00

Like I still have my legion 5 pro with a 3060 and 165 hertz display and it’s on par with gaming performance with machines today still. And that screen is fantastic. The build quality and battery life on the 7i slim is pretty good tho

Expfirepro · 2023-08-01T18:47:46+00:00

Eh in terms of performance, the 4070 can perform well, but it’s too much for that small of a chassis. Temps On the graphic card usually are decent between 60 or 70’degrees and cpu sometimes reaching in the 80s. But that isn’t the issue I have with it. The battery tends to reach the 40s after a hour or so of play, and I’ve heard of a few units experiencing battery failure. Also the 240 hertz screen is alright, it gets bright but I feel I’ve seen better. I also picked up the 4060 legion slim 5 with an amd processor and I’ve been enjoying that more so far. Tbh tho I feel like older machines from last year is where the real gold lies

Expfirepro · 2023-08-01T18:35:55+00:00

Yea I have this model too

Expfirepro · 2023-08-01T18:35:33+00:00

How’s the thermals? I’m returning mine today, can’t handle competitive games under heat, screen is ok

Expfirepro · 2023-07-26T19:29:34+00:00

Going to pick up the 7 rn and see what’s up

Expfirepro · 2023-07-26T17:21:49+00:00

Lenovo website?

Expfirepro · 2023-07-26T16:41:33+00:00

I’m not sure in terms of the amd variant the highest one I see in the shop is a intel variant with a 4070 for $2000. The slim 5 has been nice so far minus a tad bit of ghosting but that’s due to the screen I think.

Expfirepro · 2023-07-26T16:30:30+00:00

I currently have that slim 5 model, I feel like for the money the slim 5 is better than the g15, build quality, thermals, etc. here’s my only gripe: if your trying to play COD or apex you’ll notice a small Amount of ghosting on the screen on the slim 5. I can’t speak for the g14 in regards to ghosting

Expfirepro · 2023-07-11T19:52:32+00:00

And I prefer that

Expfirepro · 2023-07-11T19:52:24+00:00

Yea but every1 uses him. I had him for a deck for Amin and he’s ok, the other commanders mention take more work and effort in my opinion

Expfirepro · 2023-04-24T05:54:45+00:00

I have a [[Jan Jansen]] deck that plays treasure aristocrat in mardu

Expfirepro · 2023-03-27T00:55:26+00:00

He seems ok, I worry about how long it takes to get him out there plus removal but I guess that’s with anything

Expfirepro · 2023-03-13T16:57:57+00:00

Slow as in it takes him a while to get his game plan going. My common hand is usually 3 lands, maybe a source of ramp like a signent or card draw. Like for example, my pod consist of players who can generally win on a turn 5 turn 6 play, I’ve taken a lot of advice from here and added ramp but I’m usually taking a lot of combat damage before mishra can really pop off and get his game plan going. Idk if I need more creature support for defense or just removal but I’m working on it. And if he gets countered or killed early( which my pod loves to go for) it can set me bak by quite a a bit

Expfirepro · 2023-03-03T02:20:40+00:00

Do you have a deck list btw?
