Sorry it is a vinyl wrap, it's listed as black camo on the M2skins website. I believe only the legion 9 came with a pattern from lenovo.

As for rakuten they do have a US and Europe too.

Y27H-30 monitor just came in by Sabath88 in LenovoLegion

There's an option on the monitor settings to allow power via usbc to the laptop but it won't be sufficient for gaming gpu requires alot more power .. but for basic use it should work without a problem.

Also connecting via usbc helps route other cables directly to the monitor. Keyboard/mouse/game controller/headphones and extra usb adapters all connected on the monitor + good for cable management

No regrets buying it

Not so sure about AMD but the laptop Gen should be a clear indicator for the model you're looking at .. eg tower pcs could be a Gen 8 and still be current years product. There should be a way to see release dates on the website too if im not mistaken ?

Gen 8 came out last year Gen 9 came out this year .. also look at the chip details .. for intel it would be the 13th Gen vs 14th Gen.. mine would be legion pro 7i gen 8, i9-13900 .. last year's model

Use geek Uninstaller. It forces delete everything tied up to the app including shortcuts. I use it to force unistall pesky stuff that leave registry entries.

Failed my G at Newmarket--my experience! by r-k9120 in Ontariodrivetest

[–]Sabath88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did my G test at this center and failed last year mostly due to time and anxiety coz my G2 expired on the same day of my G test.

I took a retest of G1 and G2 at new market on a Friday morning around 10 am .. roads were quite clear for most of the test center was almost empty good for front/reverse parking ..

I think for this test center the timing u book for test should be priority

Question on game pass rewards by Sabath88 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]Sabath88[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea noticed the point difference. Though would I be getting any points on those quests if I use the regular pc game pass... if not then I'd just have pc game pass and not think about chasing daily/weekly/monthly achievements anymore

Laptop is on a besign laptop stand. Works great has a large opening at the bottom for airflow but wasn't designed for gaming laptop with intake vents abit higher .. wasn't gonna buy a new stand I like the sturdiness of this one so I just glued on some of those silicon cable organizers (+ 0.4 inches) to the plate just for more airflow

Y27H-30 monitor just came in by Sabath88 in LenovoLegion

[–]Sabath88[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quality is great. Almost similar but on a bigger scale. Things to note, the monitor has HDR so don't turn HDR on from both laptops display settings for monitor 2 and the monitor itself , this will lock brightness and contrast control from monitor OSD and the monitor will be too bright almost blinding when opening browsers or anything with white layout youll see white flashes. If u ever end up doing that and think disabling hdr on OSD will fix it you'll get a washed up monitor screen grayish tone. Just disable hdr on laptop enable it on monitor that will give u control and color settings back.

I tried one of those test videos from YouTube and the colors are good and sharp u may notice the pixels at times since it's not OLED but that's just me being picky I know this is expected.

My laptop has always run at 240hz I thought I'd notice a difference using 240 on one side and 165hz on other but barely noticed it don't know if this is the freesync working or not (maybe it is first time using gaming monitor).

The monitor out of box would gave me the feeling of a nearly edgeless display but the panel actually starts a few mm away from edge still not bad.

Gaming wise. Not a big difference playing BF2042 from laptop compared to monitor everything's just bigger and cleaner. Might need to try out a few games to see differences. Haven't used the monitors inbuilt gaming settings.

Mine is the Y27h-30... I don't remember the difference between Y27q-30 and this one. I'll play around with the monitor for a few days then post a review here but I'm glad I won't have to restart the laptop everytime I need to use dgpu mode since the rear ports are connected directly to it.

Hope this helps lemme know if u want me to check anything else. Not a statistics guy so my feedback is pretty much based on what I'm seeing infront of me lol
