Lenovo Legion 7 vs Razer Blade 17

The Legion 7 Gen 7 seamlessly switches to the Radeon graphics on its Ryzen CPU in power-saving scenarios, and it pays off: over nine hours of battery life for a hulking gaming laptop like this is noteworthy. The next-best time from the Gigabyte Aero 16 was 6 hours and 34 minutes. The Legion 7 Gen 7 also impressed with its peak screen brightness of 512.2 nits

the only negative thing about this product is the battery life really really sucks (see pic included with review) i dont know if i got a defective unit but my battery last only a hour and a half just browsing the web and streaming youtube videos. for 3200 the battery life is horrible and they claim battery life suppose to last 4 hours which it does not only get an hour and a half of battery and than it goes completely dead. and i have the brightness on low all the time. also the key board to type on this isnt so great as i causes a lot of typos

The 2022 Legion 7 16 is a homerun for Lenovo in terms of looks and design. The all AMD hardware also holds up well against some of the fastest Intel-Nvidia gaming laptops currently in the market.As for the Ryzen 9 6900HX CPU and Radeon RX 6850M XT GPU, they're only a hair faster than the 5900HX and 6800M as found on much cheaper laptops like the Asus ROG Strix G15. Overall performance is only slightly behind most GeForce RTX 3080 Ti laptops and so this is still a powerful gaming machine nonetheless

As sleek as the 2019 chassis may be, it could use some actual physical updates beyond simply performance. Dell just launched the Alienware x17 with Cherry mechanical keys that make the Blade 17 keys feel economic in comparison. The lack of a webcam shutter is becoming more difficult to ignore as well and the two high-pitched fans underneath the clickpad should be addressed without impacting airflow.

Lenovo legion 7 is too heavy for my taste and not as reliable as Thinkpad. this is where I am stuck.

It's large, too large for me. But it does act as a portable gaming and workstation for me, however, I wish the RAM was more. But pro-tip if you desire more than 2 hours of battery life, I recommend downsizing your screen size and avoid 4k resolution. Regardless, this laptop has awesome picture quality, that is touchscreen too!
