Legion 7 Gen 6 Unboxing and Initial Impressions
Thank you for a great review - the best I've seen so far! (I like that you go right to the important things and doesnt spend half an hour on things that's less relevant for normal users :- ) Just bourght the Legion 9 a few hours ago, after watching and reading many reviews. Your review was one of those that convinced me. The only thing I find is different is that carbon-lid. To me its actually cool and much less 'intrusive' than I expected. But seeing images of it (pic. & videos).... I totally agreed w. you and its was in the beginning a 'no-buy' issue untill its wild specs convinced me. But in reality its nice to look at and doesnt jump-out' and scream ''gamer'', atleast to me :- ) Btw.: Do you know how to turn on all the lights at the ports on the back? On mine only the light in the power-cord/charing is on ... the small icons at the USB, HDMI etc. isnt lit up. Thanks for a very cool channel & Greetings from Denmark!
Hands gesture, the video.
will bo6 run good on this?
You sound like your from Chicago...I like your Gameboy and Iphone display. I just ordered the x14 13th gen i7 4050 16gb ram and 512 gb hd and Q-hd display for only 999.00 from Dell. I was torn between this and the x16 but for the price Im going to try.
Two months ago I bought a G16 with RTX 4060 and Core i7-13650HX. I think that Dell was trying to clear out stock for the next generation of laptops, so they included the mechanical keyboard and 240Hz screen for $949. I am really impressed with it!
WHEN?!
@@davidmurphy3122 I bought it early Aug. 2024.
It's live right now @@davidmurphy3122

(1)With a headset you wouldn’t be able to hear the fan. It’s a gaming laptop you usually are wearing a headset (2) you can’t carry around 5 pounds. cause the laptop Alone is pounds (should of weighed it) with the brick it’s about 7.8 pounds. Complaining about weight when it’s mostly gonna be sitting on a desktop is crazy. Yes you carry it around in a bag, but where you carrying it to, your car from the office and then your car to the inside of your house? Be real. (3) battery lasts longer than 30-45 minutes lol, bruh cmon. All the things you said was great, like it keeping up with a desktop computer and you gonna return it cause of a fan. To each their own I guess lol.
You an't lying 😂😂😂😂
I had the x14r1 and enjoy it but ended up returning it because I wasnt financially stable to keep it (had the 3060 model) a year later I ended up buying the r2 version and love it. I like how the inside uses more of a normal hard plastic instead of that soft stuff they used on the first one and I also like the 16:10 display on this as well. These laptops are so sexy and perform well:)
RAM is never soldered on the board...that was the end of the video for me
You're the only person I've come across that's talked about, in detail, what tobii does and how it can be useful. Thank you for that clarification.
Great review. Love it. Entertaining! Good info... still going with this sweet m16
Review the acer predator helios neo 14 next please 😊
Its a chinese laptop made and designed by chinese people. A fine machine. Nothing in america compares.
Just have to say as an owner of this laptop the front of the laptop is Real carbon fiber. Not a skin hence what makes the laptop different. Since its real there will never be a another laptop with the same pattern. Its special. Nice review :)
Watch other reviews, this has major heat issues.
worst laptop i ever owned.. dont even do it to yourself
2:03 This little Mothe&(*$(*#($%* 🤣😂😁 - Great share bro!
2900 is a good deal!
I recently had my m15 r4 take a powder.. dell couldn't repair it so after several repairs and replacement parts, they exchanged it with the m16 r1.. I was wondering what others thought of this model and really appreciated your review.. I am relieved to find that my m16 does not have an irritating fan noise.. it runs infinitely cooler than the m15 and x16 models.. and the display is nice too.. sound is okay, but if I want music, I will choose other options.. my m16 has nvidia 4070.. my m15 r4 had a 3070.. so that upgrade was a nice bonus... Alienware warranties are expensive, but an exchange 3 1/2 years into the warranty was very appreciated..
I'm getting ready to order the AMD Ryzen 7 5800, RX 6700 XT (12gb) version from Newegg for just 1,149. New. That's pretty cheap for a Dell. Thanks for the video. Wow you look like Carl Weathers man, do you get told that much. ha. I was like whoa..lol 49 myself, so I feel ya.
Hey bro I am student and 3 days a week I will be running 12 hours device per day. I don't know what i should to choose- Alienware M15 R6 or Alienware Aurora R10 liquid colling. Despite having tablet, the laptop would be a better option for me because of mobility but i am concerned about that because i don't think that laptop hooked to 4k monitor will run without loud fans. What are your thoughts? Thanks for answer. Usage: only excel and word, i don't play video games.
THE WORST SEPAKERS I EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE SINCE 1990. I CANT BELIEVE
"Like a girl that lifts" 😂
I loved this laptop when i had it but the battery broke down on it so i was able to use my warranty with Best Buy to get a full store credit refund. I still want a replacement that has the cherry mx keyboard and 300hz display refresh rate it has and all the features but it seems no laptops have all the same features and power at the same pricepoint these days
The screen I saw on the recent Dell Gaming Laptop was terrible, I was thinking of buying due to the low price but the screen made it not worth it and I didn't like the plastic build either
and just after the warranty expired, the keyboard quit working. I posted a video on my work around which is a pain in the ass. So frustrating.
Listen, i don't even care about the laptop at this point, but this is the best review i have ever watched, man is just entertaining af 🤣
Great review. I ordered the 4070 32GB version since its $300 off at Bestbuy now.
Came here to say, be wary of your use of the mini-led.... I also work on this computer, I left my work VOIP application up on my laptop monitor nearly all day while using two others monitors for other work... well I've done that for the majority of 3 months I've owned the laptop. This was usually with HDR on, usually around 90%-100% brightness, with everything dark mode. I just realized I have pretty severe burn in at the top of the screen, goes from left to right, a long dark bluish blotchy line... and its permanent, I can tell. SO, long story short, don't run at full brightness all day with static image up. I wish someone would have put that in my head early on. No the stupid flashy pattern videos didn't work. This is legit burn in. Luckily, its at the top, its less noticeable in dark mode or with a colorful wallpaper. Also, I have Accidental protection, and I will probably have to use it, just annoying to have to set up my old shitty laptop for work. Haha. This thing is BEAST! mine is max spec, and I also put my OS on two 2TB 990s in raid 0... 13GB/s read/writes... wowzer! Also, a new BIOS update came out last month that fixed the stutter in performance mode. Pretty sure it just nerfed the voltages or speed or smtn, but now you can just set perf mode and forget. I don't run CPU overclock, and sometimes run the GPU overclock for the 4090. Also don't do undervolt anymore... too finicky, and I got a decently fast 14900hx - with OC and perf mode, I get 33.5k in cinebench (but after 2 or 3 runs, that thing's hitting upper 90s easy...degrees Celsius). anywho, that's all I came to say... LEARN ABOUT LCD BURN IN - IT IS 100% REAL AND PERMENANT... granted I probably took this screen to the extreme, or some would say, "normal use" for a damn 5k dollar laptop.... ugh
How to open the camera for this m15 r3?

Do you feel like the trackpad is too far to the left?
*Make sure you tweak the settings on these laptops as they are not at 100% out of the box. MUX Switch and Ram(16gb) is the biggest problem other than that mines been blazing through anything I throw at it since release date.*
I wish i had a laptop like this.
work hard my guy! and don't buy shit online without getting discounts. I'm still in shock I got one, I've already broke it a dozen times tinkering... won't stop either, muahaha... (get accidental warranty).

@@M8NR8E I honestly do too much research for things i know i wont get but it helps me get more knowledge on what i'll hopefully get in the future. thanks dude, hopefully youre doing well and hopefully this advice pays off for me :D
Perfect time to buy, waiting for mine to arrive. I went fully loaded and literally got way over $1500.00 off the price including Lenovo's extended warranty too. Toal less than 3200, not too bad and just the look of this laptop is sharp. I do graphics mostly, but some gaming. 🙂
Kindly let me know where you puchased?
@@kmdeepu9 directly from Lenovo. I continually asked if this was the best you can do. I also got a discount for an active RN licensure. Barter and they will make a deal. Love my Legion 9i.
@@robertarmstrongjr6081 How was it so far?
@@grzo6917 Rock solid, fast, enjoying the keyboard and the track pad may be smaller and to the left but this is not a con for me. Benchmark scores are better than I expected. I have downloaded two BIOS updates from Lenovo so far and each installed without issue. No blue screen of death or lockups noted. Mine has the 64 GIG of Ram and a 2 TB SSD, does not show up as two separate 1 TB drives in RAIOD 0. I do hear the fans occasionally during CPU extensive tasks like intense games or viral scans, but they are short lived moments. The color show is vivid and a bit in your face, but I love the look. I opted to use the llano cooler and CPU temps ruin around 40 at low speed on the llano. I highly recommend purchasing this laptop. One other thing, the fingerprint reader works every time, and it works with windows hello just fine. Built in cam works great for work conferences. Yes, I use this for work meetings. Stickers on the laptop do not bother me at all. Especially love the lighted port guide on the back. Overall, this is the perfect laptop for me.
Absolutely the best laptop I purchased. Perfect in every way. Fans do not bother me and are not too loud except during viral scans or video work. I say go for it, you all will be satisfied

Honest review, I loved every minute of this. I decided to stick with the Legion 7i Gen 9. I dont think the 4090 os nessecarry. I also dont like the extra holes that can collect dust.
Sad. As a biker or a person who like to say go bug or go home. This Legion is preparing you for the 4k, 8k content coming out soon. You'll be behind.
Dont consider L9 now, it has dozens of issues, use these topics in google search and you will fiind all the issues, even Notebookcheck has already 2 faulty L9s. Google it: "Lenovo-Legion-9-16IRX9-Legion-9i-review-How-high-end-is-the-RTX-4090-gamer" There are countless threads about the problems with the Legion 9i. Lenovo has been completely silent for months. People, including myself, have reported buying or replacing new Legion 9i dozens of times. The problems persist. Lenovo's departments cant decide who is responsible for those issues, and blaming each other back and forth. Raw product, that costs 4-5k bucks and is well known as flagship from the lenovo's side and reviewers, which didnt pay any money for it, sure they show only the positive sides and even licking lenovo's ass to show how great their water pump is, which is completely trash, 2c difference with it, is painful to see! 1) Disabling-raid-in-Legion-9i 2) Legion-9i-inaccessible-boot-device-error-after-setting-Hyper-V-in-windows-11 3) Disabling-raid-in-Legion-9i 4) Legion-9i-Crackling-audio-through-headset-only-in-Legion-Performance-Mode 5) Legion-9i-repair-came-back-worse-than-it-was-before 6) tutter-in-Performance-Mode-on-Legion-9i-RTX-4090 7) Lenovo-Legion-9-GEN-8-9-13980HX-14900HX-4090-VMD-Issues-High-DPC-Latency-Audio-Crackling(my post) 8) stutters_on_legion_9i(sure reddit isnt the best source, but still)
Did u get ur 9i rtx 4090 and are u experiencing stutters ?
Well I'd probably rather have this over a used car HAHA
I still don't think Oled is a good idea for long-term use of Laptops OR Deasktops due to the high likelihood of Burn in within a few years or less
This is a Hilarious & Good Review of this laptop haha
The skin is real forged carbon fiber, helps with reducing some of the weight as well as being stronger than aluminum. You mostly see forged carbon fiber on exotic supercars such as Lamborghini and Ferrari.
Ram isn't soldered
Like the Alienware laptops from years ago, if I have to disassemble the laptop and flip the motherboard to get to it, it’s considered soldiered because they don’t intend for me to swap it out.
@@ProTechShawnpero no está soldada, solo es un poco complicado acceder.
@@ProTechShawn Shawn, did you notice whenever the vram hitting 90c the liquid cooling kicks in? Or able to mitigate the heat coming from the vram?
great review
Can you test the llano cooling pad on it?
if im not wrong the network/wifi card is not upgradable. are the speakers bad on this model?
What kind of external display do you recommend to use with this laptop
That’s a tough question. lol. While I like to have my display match the laptop, Lenovo doesn’t have any “appetizing” monitors. In this case I’d probably go with one of the Alienware or LG QD OLED monitors. Expensive, but if I paid this much for a laptop, I want to make sure I get the best experience if I’m not using the main display.
@@ProTechShawndid you keep the laptop and because of the way the fans and board is upside down there is no cooling pad for it
No you can upgrade the ram to 128
What's the best way to get the stickers off
