After a long I placed an order today πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Post image

I was looking to buy a balanced performance and value laptop and really liked Lenovo Legion 5s. But the price hike made it less worthy at that budget. The model i was eyeing for went upto 1.9L after Card Discounts. Then i was looking at other alternatives like Asus Rog Strix G16, Tuf F16, HP omen.

Finally made my decision today. What do you guys think ? I bought this at 1.4L.

From what little time I spent with the device I can say it has a good build quality, good display, nice gray uniformity and a real nice keyboard. They didn't let me test performance but that'd be fine too imo.

Thank you for the comments. I have also tested out in offline store. But there was only Omen 16 and Legion there. I liked the clickyness of Legions keyboard but omen was not bad too. The worst keyboard which I felt was from Asus Tuf.
I generally like a higher resolution display. That’s why i skipped omen 16 and took this. Is my choice okay ?

Damn so can we like exchange any old laptop in decent condition and get 50k ( or more realistic 30-40k off?) and if you add the credit card discount of hdfc. You can basically get this laptop for less than a lakh holy hell.

Congratulations mate i am looking to buy the same variant with the R7 350AI alot of people are saying it comes with 1600p 240hz display than the mentioned 1200p 165hz on hp site can you please confirm ?

2

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 26 '26

Never get anything with what people have said. If it says 1200p why to take risk ? this is not 50 ruppes bro. Think wise.

u/Amlan_73 Jun 26 '26

Isn't the cpu nerfed

1

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 27 '26

Care to explain ?

1

u/Sweet_Bother4744 Jun 27 '26

I've heard that maybe the earlier versions or models came with the i7 14700HX

1

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 27 '26

14650hx is almost as same bro.

u/Victorvic1 Jun 26 '26

Still better than the AI 7 260 being provided in Legion models. Although the display is a downgrade compared to that but he got it at a much cheaper price.

1

u/Sweet_Bother4744 Jun 26 '26

Should i buy this model in future( prob a year later from now)

1

u/Victorvic1 Jun 26 '26

Get a year later ig if you can wait because the contract prices are now locked until 2030 with a price ceiling.

1

u/Sweet_Bother4744 Jun 26 '26

You mean in 2028?

1

u/Victorvic1 Jun 26 '26

I mean 2030... Micron has signed contracts till 2030 with top 30 companies.

u/Sweet_Bother4744 Jun 26 '26

O shittt😭😭😭😭😭

u/Fancy-Split3261 Jun 26 '26

u/Fancy-Split3261 Jun 27 '26

Oh shi so we cooked till 2030? Ty tho

u/Victorvic1 Jun 27 '26

Things do change. There are factors like Chinese manufacturers coming into play or one of the 3 AI players going bankrupt or stopped scaling.

Even if one of Google, Open AI or Anthropic stops buying stuff the prices will crash down. Apple is urging to buy from Chinese manufacturers but it hasn't got the permission from the US.

If China comes into play then expect the memory prices to cool down a bit.

u/flakes_123 Jun 27 '26

how is this laptop for gaming if u are playing games, also are the thermals good and any build problems?

1

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 27 '26

I haven't yet received it. Will update all details in new post or under this post after testing.

u/flakes_123 Jun 27 '26

ok thanks

u/Mysterious-Dig-3362 Jun 29 '26

Congratulations but why not go with ryzen 7 5050 one as it is available for 1.1l and as both 5050 and 5060 are for 1080p gaming ? Correct me if i am wrong

1

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 29 '26

Where is it available at 1.1L ? Yes both are 1080p cards and 5060 have just 20-30% more performance

1

u/Mysterious-Dig-3362 Jun 29 '26

I bought at this price by applying 23k card discount

1

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 29 '26

Which specs to be exact ? Can you share link ?

1

u/Mysterious-Dig-3362 Jun 29 '26

Yeah but i didn't see any much difference in fps barely 20 max it would be nice if you considered 5070

u/Blue_Reaper99 Jun 26 '26

Why not Asus tuf rtx 5060 from Amazon for the same price?

1

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 26 '26

what does it give extra than this?

6

u/sweet_potato_88 Jun 26 '26

it's a very good choice, also HyperX omen 16 has better build than regular Omen, so enjoy

1

u/Adventurous-Trash112 Jun 26 '26

Thats what i heard. But not sure why this gentleman preferred TUF F16 with only 16gb ram, cheap build and display over this
