@@alexbabira646 Yeah I regret selling that laptop immensely. The legion 7 Gen 7 AMD 6850m xt is still the best laptop I have ever used… feels bad The 6850m xt is more capable than a 4070 AND it has more vram. Still an outstanding laptop option
@@TechGuyBeau I agree. I have this one for more than a year and I absolutely love it! Initial I wanted to get the RTX 3070TI version, but 8 GB of VRAM after Last of Us Part I launch, seemed to be too little in the long run. Then, I looked at the gen 8 with RTX 4080, but it was a little bit too expensive and it felt more like a 5 pro, with plastic touchpad, plastic keyboard deck, plastic vents and bulkier design. And this is how I arrived at Legion 7 gen 7 Advantage Edition. The build quality in this is peak Legion in my opinion. All metal build, glass touchpad, QHD 165hz 100% sRGB 500 nit display, 1080p camera with E-Shutter, fingerprint reader, excellent sound and awesome per-key RGB. The perfomance is very good. With only 140W, RX 6850M XT is like a low powered RX 6700 XT and peforms 5-10% slower than the desktop version. In some games, the card is on pair with RTX 3070TI mobile, but in others it is almost on pair with RTX 3070 desktop. For example, in Last of Us Part I, my friend's RTX 3070 paired with Ryzen 5 7600, is only 5% faster in a scene we tested. Also, with 12GB of VRAM, you can run ultra textures native resolution in any demanding game, like Forza Horizon 5, Ghost of Tsushima, or Last of Us Part I. Overall it runs any game you throw in at high-ultra in native resolution. At first, I was a little bit skeptical about AMD drivers, but I didn't occur any problems in the meantime. The temps are amazing and the baterry life is very decent for a gaming laptop.

thanks for suggestion
Might be a silly question, but how does this compare to the MacBook Pro speakers in terms of the lows and bass? Just for a general frame of reference.
This will be massively louder and with significantly more bass
Hey man, have you tried the tribit stormbox 2? Which one would you pick between this and the tribit stormbox 2?
I have not sorry
Hi! Do you still have the Legion 7 gen 7 AMD Advantage? Would be interesting to se a 1 year review or some test in recent games.
I don’t have it anymore sorry. But I recently did a g14 all AMD with the same specs and it holds up really nicely
@@TechGuyBeau As far as I know, the G14 only goes up to a RX 6800S and the Legion 7 AE have that RX 6850M XT that is a lot more powerfull.
