Lenovo Legion 5i Pro Review in India 2022: Best Mid Range Gaming Laptop

Lenovo has used a minimalistic approach in designing their gaming laptops. But having said that you get a solidly built gaming machine that is not really thin and very light laptop.

As I said the look and feel of your gaming laptop has standard aesthetics. Frankly, I don’t find much flaws with this.

I f you look at the design language of the other brands like the ones, Asus or Acer, its lighting of the keyboard backlit doesn’t feel too aggressive. Similarly, the Legion 5i Pro doesn’t offer very glamorous look, but very well speaks of all features that it’s a gaming laptop.

So, what does differentiate this gaming laptop from other counterparts in the competition? Well, the white color of the unit makes it different from others in race.

The Y logo is flawlessly centered on the lid of the gaming notebook. The Y logo is illuminated and glows light blue when your laptop is plugged in. But you cannot change the color of the light.

The whole body of the laptop is made up of plastic material. It’s also little heavy weighing 2.3 kg. and thick. But I like its excellent build quality.

Usually heavy laptops come with a little tight hinge. But what I really like about Lenovo Legion 5i Pro is its easy to open hinge and sturdy lid. I didn’t find its screen unsteady either while working for a few weeks.

The gaming notebook has very interesting bezels around the screen. These are thin enough to give more space to the display. At the top center of the PC across the bezel, there is a HD webcam with dedicated electronic shutter. This means you can keep the webcam ON/OFF at your will.

High performance gaming laptops tend to heat up quickly when running creatives and heavy games.

To neutralize and keep the machine cool by passing out the heat, Legion 5i Pro has 4 vents each on left ad right and ventilation space on the bottom. But when I worked, it didn’t get too hot too quickly.

So, what more in design and build MS? There is a little more to talk about various ports your Lenovo Legion 5i Pro gaming laptop offers.

The gaming machine offers a plenty of ports. On the back the PC, you get ethernet RJ 5 connector, HDMI 2.1 connector, USB Type -C 3.2 port, 2 USB Type-A 3.2 ports, and a power connector.

On the right side of the notebook, you will find USB Type-A (Gen 1) port and a dedicated electronic webcam shutter switch. An USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 2) port and an audio jack sit on the left of the PC.
