A+ for a very honest review.
Wow , your editing was on point , everything was so well managed in your video. Keep it up !
WatchIng this on my Y720. Such a Good laptop!
Diet18's Channel how Bright is the screen on this laptop? Battery life?
The screen is really bright, it's great. You can always lower the brightness if you like to. Battery life is also awesome.
Is it really heavy?
it is pretty heavy, I bought it a couple of days ago but I'm running nearly all games on max settings, and battery life is about 4 hours if you are on power saver mode
just if you get it DON'T upgrade the intel driver, upgrade nvidia all you want but you will 100% regret updating the intel one cus the laptop will feel really messed up, I had to rollback the update to get it running smoothly again
It’s $1300 or $1580 without the discount, saved you a quick click!
Edit: it just got up to $1465
As if they are ever going to sell it without a discount, if they do , no one will buy it coz there are other options
AusDaes I thought you were talking about the Iphone X a second lol.
Appreciate it if u can compare this with acer helios 300 & dell inspiron 7577.
Just purchased it, you made me feel even better for my choice! Thumbs up
3:33! Great video. Good laptop!
i have this laptop for 5 month working great .. display is great .. overall quality is good .. sound is quiet loud.. keyboard is nice with adjustable backlight in software..
utility port is the best you can get especially with thunderbolt 3 with competitor at least 300 dollar more.. any laptop with gtx1060 and above is completely different experience and tier compare to x50 and below (serious no joke had fren with msi with gtx1050 feel really mediocre compare to this)
Ayu IeU I'm thinking to buy this laptop also. Have you tried Witcher 3? Cause most of the reviews are about the begging of the game. Later on the game becomes more demanding.
Ayu IeU how are the cpu and gpu tempretures?
Remember me from the Alienware Rainbow Six Siege or the Razer Blade ? Bid fan bro take care
I'm gonna grab this in around 2 weeks. After lots of comparisons with Helios 300 and other "7700HQ+1060GTX" laptops i've come to the conclusion that this is the better all rounder, on the bare-bones side for its price, no SSD or extra ram because those tend to be overpriced.
Alex Razorcif Same here, exactly around that time as well. Although what got me cautious were the screen comparisons. What panel model are you getting? I might stick to a 1080, which just would be perfect for the GTX 1060. 4K seems unnecessary.
Check out Dell Inspiron 7577
Emman Pascual Of course, the 1080p one seems a no brainer. I have already stretched my budget a lot and cannot really dish out more than 1170 euros. Current price in my country.
Sai Nivedh Vallala man I'd like to, but first of all I don't have that in my most popular electronic store. Second, they sell Inspiron 7567 and the version with 7300HQ and gtx 1050(non ti) is 30 euros more expensive than the y720. I don't want to know how the better Inspiron 7577 is priced xD. Also I like the fact that Lenovo's got those pretty Dolby atmos speakers. Also the look of it is pretty fine.
I think you should check the new dell with 1060..
it's simple ... I need to work 7 months, earning minimum wage to buy this laptop
I live in Brazil
that laptop really has me interested. do this model come with a 1070 or 1080? i feel i would still buy it if it doesnt cause i really love everything it comes with for the price and it looks sweet to top it off!! thanks for the video
I love the review it got what i need to know before acquiring one for myself.
Remember me from the last video with the '1050ti squad' component ?
+Rohitash Pradhan haha nice to see you again, yes I do, the top comment I believe too =)
Awe of Tech love your content
İ love this laptop 😁
adim yok mk I have this laptop and it's absolutely a piece of crap!
Ahmed Muayad Why??
adim yok mk this laptop is good im going to get it
it's a piece of crap because he's too stupid to know to use it properly. i bet he doesn't even know to install the right drives, which will cause drastic improvements.
hey man! I'm getting this laptop next week. What drivers are you talking about? Drivers for graphic card and CPU? Can you please tell me more? Thanks in advance!
like your videos, subscribed
is it worth buying now? since it was released in 2017
No.
@@adamke and why not?
I just bought it. Got a good deal for 1300 Euro it was a Display Laptop. ( So minor smudges or something but it is guaranteed by lenovo to be working 100%) with these specifications Lenovo Legion Y720 39,62cm (15,6 Zoll Full HD IPS) Gaming Multimedia Notebook (Intel Core i7-7700HQ Quad-Core, 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD+256GB SSD, Nvidia GeF . If anyone is interested I can let them know in a few days about my experience. Check on Amazon that is where I found my deal. Cheers and happy gaming.
Julian Hentzen how is the display? Is it bright enough?
It is bright enough. Would not have noticed anything. I really love it. Just make sure you make sure what keyboard you want because there is one with the red rgb backlight and one with the different color rgb backlight.
Oh and it runs all games up until now. Really great also the xbox integrated controller support is really awesome.
you can use xbox controller on this laptop ?
tell me , do you play cs go ? and what exactly graphics card you have ? 1060 ?
Are those average temps or highest temps? If we are talking about highest temps, mine can hit 85 C on the CPU and 70 C on the GPU, but that's with the fan booster on, undervolting, using a cooling pad, and sometimes (depending on the game) even undercharging the CPU at the cost of some acceptable performance loss. It's still well within reason for a gaming latptop, but it's not almost as cool as a desktop. My guess is maybe you factored idle temps when drawing an average? Or the room was very cool when you tested? Anyway, very good review.
So do you recommend this laptop because i usually get asus and i am afraid to get lenovo
@@-Abdulhadi- I'm very happy with it so far, and I've only heard positive things from other users. It's certainly a very powerful laptop, and seems built to last a good while with proper care.
Mine used to run as high as 80c too. I thoroughly cleaned both the CPU die and GPU die with an Arctic Silver cleaning kit (2 step process) and then re-pasted both dies with Noctura
NT-H1 paste and gave it a week to settle. My temps now for both CPU and GPU are running under 40C for web surfing (typically 6-7 tabs open in Firefox, Playing Videos, email running and running CAM for monitoring. Under Unigine Superposition Benchmark default fan speeds it hits 55-60c with extreme cooling enabled it hits 50C.
I highly recommend a good cleaning and re-paste! I'm not undervolted at all, all default clocks and voltages.
Excellent!
u cannot change the hdd 2tb, and put a bigger hdd, lets say a 5tb? sorry if i missunderstanding.. and wht about the sound? does it gives 5.1 or 7.1 from the hdmi ????
Hey Awe of Tech, would you recommend the Lenovo Y720 or the ASUS gl503? Thank you very much.
Asus 503
OreLPoint thanks a lot, I've been waiting for a reply 😂
3:52 wtf? 0_o
imparable 71
hhj
Between this one and the Dell Inspiron 7567, wich one is better ?
What's your video editing software?
Hi, is the lenovo y720 screen bright enough for office use ? I have seen a lot of review saying that the screen is dim. Usually I will just play game on the laptop. Can it play all the demanding game with high setting ? I am deciding to buy between this, acer helios 300 or dell 7577. Could you give me the best option ? Because i have seen some review saying about gtx1060 max Q (dell 7577)is not great compare with the GTX1060. You made a great video btw !
I have the y720, Im using it in an office 8 hours everyday. I watched a lot of reviews before I bought it, heard the "dim" thing, I wouldn't consider it dim at all. It is bright enough. If that is all you may be hesitating, you shouldn't. ;)
if I will buy it for editing videos and picture what about picture and contrast?
Well the SRGB contrast is kinda only 70%, so I wouldnt really use it for photoshop and video editing, since you can easily miss edit the colors, which maybe look good on the Y720's monitor, but different on other monitors. But just having it for everything else, it really does looks nice. Trust me its a nice display, but usually not recommended for professional editing.
Dear Kevin Just last question if its really heavy on your backpack ? because I would use it for mobility too? so what do you think?
Im using the laptop for work too, and my work place is a 20 minute walk from my home. When I first got this Laptop, and bought a backpack for it. I felt that it was heavy, and was a bit worried that it may somehow open the zips on my backpack and fall out. But having it for 3 months now and carrying it with me everyday to work and back home after, I dont even feel that it is on my back. And I even have the battery charger, and a dualshock 4 controller with me everytime. So after getting used to it for some days, you wont even notice it. Atleast I dont really. :)
do you gus have screen bleeding with this laptop?
4:48 512 GB ? so why is in text next to it 1TB ? Is this picture from diferent laptop?
does it have the xbox wireless card under the m.2 slot? mine dsnt, I heard its not stock on some models
Man is wish I had that but it was like 150-200 dollars more than the gtx 1060 laptop I got so I go it instead. Those temps on the legion are amazing
Is it really heavy? Because i'll use it for school
Can you also use this computer for school work
how much ram does it support ? 16gb or 32 gb?
I don't know if to pick up this laptop or dell 7577 - Any advice? @Awe of Tech
LAST 19 PIECES BY AMAZON ITSELF AS THE SELLER
amzn.to/2nNsNK4
Would this be best to buy or would the gl503vm would be a better choice to buy?
503vm - Watch the review from Dave Lee about it.
Is there a big difference between the i5 and i7 variant ? Because i'm thinking about the i5 version as its much cheaper
in gaming? barely but edit videos? yes (well lil bit).
It’s really annoying, in Australia this is over $2000
is the display nvidia gsync ready?
How about mention the monitor's refresh rate, and whether it's gsync capable? Get to what people want dude.
Jeff Holliday not gsync compatible as far as I am aware. Screens are 60 mhz refresh rate on all Legion except for the Y920
Is a 60hz screen good for gtx1060??
Is this better than asus rog strix gl703vm??
I'd be super glad if anyone can answer this. Well, this morning I went to the a store nearby to get a Lenovo legion y520 laptop. Surprisingly I saw it has GTX 1060 4GB graphics. It was mentioned in the system info and also in the original box. But when I check online GTX 1060 has only 3GB or 6Gb models. Btw, I live in Dubai and I'm not sure if it differs from country to country. Kindly help me out.
Rushdi Latiff Hey there. I have been looking into this laptop (and graphics card) since I intend to get one for myself. GTX 1060 only comes in 3 or 6 GB. That thing might be mispelled or fake misleading. The one graphics card for Laptops in this price range/brand that has 4gb is the 1050Ti. Maybe check their validity but seems a bit fishy. Hope this helps :)
How much ram does it suppprtt?
Acer Helios 300 is much better value at 1050$
on pure performance to price yes, but overall if u watched davelees vid on the y720, he calls the y720 a more complete and substantial package compared to the helios
Sajid Ahsan Helios doesn't have a Thunderbolt port
Acer laptops are the worse
Sajid Ahsan Helios has shit speakers and only has red keyboard light and on the other hand y720 has one of the best sounding speakers and also has customisable rgb keyboard, internal specs are the same as that of Helios so I think y720 is overall a better package and display too is a bit more color correct on y720 !!!
Sajid Ahsan I have missed this conversation by a few months, but the Lenovo rised to over 1400 USD while the helios is still at 1050. Not defending either one it's just that overall I would choose the helios for 300 dollars less currently.
nice
Got a dell w/ i5 and 1060 max q for 750 usd after tax.
I got the y520 same with same specs but cheaper
Denzel Mutimuvezwa gtx 1060 and 16gb of ram 256 ssd + 1tb hdd on a Y520? Hmm I don’t think so
Denzel Mutimuvezwa y520 has core i5 processor and it has a GTX 1050ti so I think you don't know anything about the specs !!!!
kernelxoom true
kernelxoom I mean they probably have reviews of it that’s for sure but imo I wouldn’t buy it anymore, you know last year we had great deals this year nah not so much I’d suggest waiting for that perfect laptop right in the sweet spot of price, battery, screen resolution and performance.
kernelxoom I was exactly just like you in the same price range looking for a good laptop sometimes I would decide to get the 7577 but I remembered the thick bezels and 1060 max q is not as future proof as I wanted to be. I once thought the acer Predator should be my choice but with all the bad reviews of it getting hot and the build quality being almost 100% plastic made me give up. I also thought about the Lenovo Y series but after realizing how dim and ugly the screen was I had completely changed my mind. I’ve grown up and the need of gaming has really decreased and the need of a good battery,display and build quality has increased. But my budged has stayed the same. I’m still looking for a laptop with very good display for around $1000 yep that’s all I need a very good display for that price. But as simple as it sounds I haven’t found any good enough, I don’t know if you know any laptops with very good display for around $1000 because it seems like you’re very confused sorry I couldn’t help you with that because I gave up.
i love my legion
y720 vs alienware 17 r4, which is better?????
I currently have the Y720 and I had a $2800.00 R17 that literally went up in smoke in 5 days... Yeah spec wise the Alienware was better but considering it literally let smoke out on day 5 of ownership and Alienware support was a total joke, I got my money back and waited a bit and looked at what was on the market. For me this was a no brainer and I picked it up for a grand even off Amazon.
what about the xbox one cotroller reciever?
Leonardo castañeda mine have the receiver. If the device manager shows the driver then your model have it. U are not going to be able to get it conected wirelessly until u first plug it through the usb cable to the laptop. And then voila. Good pc for 25,000 mexican pesos (about 1300 usd tax included). I played wildlands at 35fps ultra.
Comercial PExpress and how could you get 60 FPS? I mean, I have it too, but the frame rate drops sometimes
Leonardo castañeda which game?
Comercial PExpress Pubg or Rainbow six siege, even with rocket league gives me some kicks
Some stupid guy is selling this to 6000kr (like 500-600$), should i buy it? Btw its bought 2 months ago
no, i rather pay 1000 for this than 500 - 600, he will run away if that lap have issue
y 720 or helios 300 ?
in games
thunderbolt in y720 .. not in ah300
I want to buy one of these .. but it's too expansive in Russian federation it's about 1600 $ while in USA only 1000
and I have trust issues that I can't buy and let someone send to me 😂
What Happened to this guy?? Are you still alive man?
Yeh, its a shame. I liked his videos :(
OWNorDisown Did something happen to him or he just quit?
@@yummiermussel5331 I dunno, I've tried doing some Google searches and drew up a blank. Its unusual for someone to just leave without saying something, responding to at least one comment. I fear something may have happened to him...hope not !
It’s a cool laptop but you have reviewed better laptops
Vitor Vlogs like what?
Gadolinium n ok laptop not laptops
Gadolinium n the Razor Blade
Gadolinium n but this one is a bit faster
The Acer Predator Helios 300 has the same exact specs as this but costs only $1050 on Amazon...This is a rip off
It is more like better bang for your buck in terms of raw performance but it got more plastic and lenovo with aluminum on the outside but both of them are great.
Suhaas Chennapragada Legion Y720 has overall better build quality, more features like extremely good speakers, Xbox one controller support and is comparitively thinner and lighter than the Helios 300 and has a better battery life too
Suhaas Chennapragada you just said decent, the legion has way better build quality and amazing speakers plus the keyboard, Lenovo keyboards are extremely good, and well, for the price, the Helios 300 is 1050$ while the legion y720 is 1200$. The price in this video is outdated and the official price on Lenovo website for the same specifications is 1200$, so, you'd rather spend 150$ extra for more durability and better quality
Poorav Dhingra I was about to buy Acer predator Helios but now I am saving more for the Lenovo y720 coz I want that my laptop should have good sounding speakers and customisable rgb lights and an overall better build quality !!! Wish me luck
Suhaas Chennapragada no you use to have to buy a large adapter and connect it to usb to use it wirelessly, not as much of a concern with the revised Xbox one controllers now connecting over Bluetooth but that wireless adapter was like $50
First
LOL
nice
