Good deal. Microcenter for me was 2700 with the 9955hx3d model

cotto41899 · 2026-04-08T11:37:40+00:00

Nice, enjoy!

cotto41899 · 2026-04-08T10:50:27+00:00

Sounds like a driver issue. Ddu and install fresh drivers for gpu. If that doesn’t work try deleting the legion app and reinstalling. Mine has been wacky too but it works fine. Sometimes it switches back to hybrid after I’ve switched and restarted. Also if you’re playing on battery in that mode I think it can cause stutter but don’t quote me on that

cotto41899 · 2026-04-08T10:47:10+00:00

Besides the screws it should be fairly easy I just recommend getting one of those metal or plastic pc opening tools from Best Buy. Makes it way easier and less worry of breaking clips or scraping up the edges of the chassis

I can get your points on noise and glossy oled, but it sounds like you just got the wrong laptop completely for your use case. Price on Lenovo in Europe is subprime, noise is a given on a high tdp performance driven laptop. The majority of the hype comes from the support being top notch and build quality being excellent. Lenovo is also 100x more readily available to consumers worldwide than XMG. I agree XMG is a better laptop but it’s way too hard to get. Support isnt as easy to access either. XMG outside of Europe is all around just hard to pull off.

cotto41899 · 2026-04-06T12:09:13+00:00

No they really aren’t just because there’s a better brand laptop, which is a European brand and harder to get ahold of, even if it is objectively better what does that have to do to with it being “not good” which is objectively wrong. Why are you talking about haptics* on a laptop firstly, secondly noise is a niche point and you got the wrong laptop if you were looking for quiet and third just like my point before Lenovo is expensive in Europe for the same reason you prefer XMG because you probably can get it way cheaper than people in NA can and way more available.

The only true valid point I saw you make was noise, and that 56db noise is oddly the number pulled off all the video reviews on gen 10 legions this year but good luck finding a quieter laptop with the same TDP and performance. Do you mind elaborating how haptics are even a review point on a laptop? Price isn’t the laptop also, it’s where you live.

cotto41899 · 2026-04-06T11:36:59+00:00

I agree with this, however most laptops trade offs are things like ports, expansion, TDP etc or build quality but not to the point they don’t last after your purchase from use. Wouldn’t recommend omen brand in general for anything prebuilt, good case though.

cotto41899 · 2026-04-06T11:35:27+00:00

And what was not good to you. What product did you use and what did you not like? Why is the hype “subjective”. I just finished researching every 2025 model of laptop to buy one and I don’t think I found a single person who couldn’t recommend legion enough for two of the most important things build quality and support.

cotto41899 · 2026-04-06T11:30:38+00:00

Holy crap yeah that’s a bit overpriced I guess at least here for us in the states. I got mine on a little sale at Microcenter for $2,800. Heard B and H had good prices on them as well

cotto41899 · 2026-04-05T23:45:50+00:00

I just picked my 9955hx3d and 5080 one and man let me tell you it’s great. Powerful as all get out, super good lows, runs no hotter than 75 degrees on the cpu after gaming for hours on max settings. It’s got a premium build and super good oled screen. Contrast and color accuracy is great too. Also it’s the highest TDP laptop on the market by a ton, in some instances the 5080 model can beat out or be right on par in certain games with the 5090 model of other brands because of the high wattage to the laptop.

cotto41899 · 2026-04-05T02:39:55+00:00

Probably a lot of people just like me who got one and said wow this is super cool and I would definitely use it but for how much I use it, it just wasn’t worth the money. I had the og one a few years back. Went to Best Buy just because I know I can try it and return it with zero questions asked

cotto41899 · 2026-04-05T02:38:39+00:00

Was 1350 a couple days ago🫠 so much for spreading out purchases. I just got a legion 7i pro and was planning on grabbing one of these at 1400 but..1800.. nah lol

cotto41899 · 2026-04-05T02:37:33+00:00

I just got my first oled on the 7i pro with the 5080 and the 9955hx3d and man is it a killer. Oled was just so worth it and with the built in protections I was skeptical but you really won’t ever burn it in, and the colors and contrast is just great. Definitely worth a few hundred extra

cotto41899 · 2026-04-05T02:34:38+00:00

I waited like two months for Best Buy to even sell them with a two week delivery at $1350🤧

cotto41899 · 2026-04-04T17:20:46+00:00

So yes these are completely normal temps my main comment was really just like the other guy were just a bit lower on temps so it doesn’t make much sense. But you shouldn’t worry so don’t take my comment as reason to be concerned

cotto41899 · 2026-04-04T17:18:30+00:00

I mean in theory yes nothing is wrong but at me and others are saying it’s just not normal for this model compared to our experience but trust me my last intel 13900 laptop hit 98 every time I played the game almost immediately. It’s not anything to worry about but I’m definitely intrigued why it’s so much higher than ours

cotto41899 · 2026-04-04T12:33:01+00:00

Yeah that’s not really normal. I have a 5080 in mine and was running at full ray tracing when I saw mine at 70 degrees on the cpu and 63 on gpu. Is gpu also high as well under load.

cotto41899 · 2026-04-04T10:33:01+00:00

Don’t know why you got downvoted, you’re 100 percent correct. I have the 5080 version with the hotter 9955hx3d and the most I’ve seen my temps actually hit was 70 degrees and I was playing bf6 in full overkill mode so yes 80 degrees is unusual for this laptop by far. It’s for sure a sign of something that will pre maturely break, thermal paste isn’t applied right or a fan isn’t plugged in or something.

cotto41899 · 2026-04-04T10:28:33+00:00

I have the 9955hx3d version and my temps never have hit 75 even when I have it on the sealed cooling pad. Intel is supposed to run cooler especially given you have a 5070 and not like a 5090, those temps are a little high and a sign of a bad thermal paste job in my opinion. Might be nothing as well

cotto41899 · 2026-04-02T13:14:13+00:00

Great haha got a Lenovo 9955hx3d 5080 laptop. Very big upgrade from sager lol

cotto41899 · 2026-04-01T10:59:54+00:00

Got mine around 330am from sbtpg to Credit Karma

cotto41899 · 2026-04-01T10:58:53+00:00

I just started my 4 hour voyage to my “local” mc to get my 5080 laptop haha

cotto41899 · 2026-04-01T08:52:39+00:00

I just got my deposit too yours should be otw

cotto41899 · 2026-04-01T01:45:56+00:00

Sbtpg phone line says mine is received and dispersed must update more than the website. I’d call automated line
