The Pro 5 supposedly ships in 10-12 business days as opposed to 3+ months for the normal Legion 5 17" model. I took a shot at this; after-tax total of $1,647.50 for the Pro 5 with:

● AMD® Ryzen™ 7 5800H Processor (3.20 GHz, up to 4.40 GHz Max Boost, 8 Cores, 16 Threads, 16 MB Cache)
â—Ź Windows 10 Pro 64 English
â—Ź 32 GB DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 16 GB)
â—Ź 1 TB PCIe SSD
â—Ź 1 TB PCIe SSD
● 16.0" WQXGA (2560 x 1600) IPS, anti-glare with Dolby Vision™, HDR 400, 500 nits, 165Hz
● NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX™ 3070 8GB
â—Ź 720p HD
â—Ź Array Microphone
â—Ź Storm Grey
â—Ź Backlit 4 Zone RGB - US English
● Wi-Fi 802.11AX (2 x 2) & Bluetooth® 5.1
â—Ź Anodizing
â—Ź PC/ABS
â—Ź 4 Cell Li-Polymer 80Wh
â—Ź 300W AC
â—Ź Publication-English
â—Ź 1 Year Depot or Carry-in

Fingers crossed to get this laptop at $950 off the retail price!

can you try this out? https://www.reddit.com/r/AMDLapto...nc_screen/
The method above doesn't work.

The option to turn on freesync can't be toggled
It says display not support as the reason.

I wonder if some L517s have different panels in them.

I guess we will find out more about this issue in the coming days.

But come on people lots of you guys got your laptops today.

Show this thread some support and post your feedback about this issue so we can be informed.

I can forgive the the extra 1 tb issue because I have a 4tb nvme anyways.

But what's not forgivable is that my laptop was advertised to have freesync

Which I was looking forward for games like flight simulator 2020

Real bummer
I believe only the 16" l5pro had freesync I don't believe the 17" one stated that.

You're thinking of Gsync.

FreeSync was expected to be on the L5 17, and it's still listed under the Tech Specs section of the page: https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/la...en101g0010

L5 17
I am sad to say the display has no Dolby vision as well


So no freesync and no Dolby vision
both which are advertised under the specs page.


I wonder if Lenovo sent the coupon glitches a lower end panel that lack these features
To recoup some of their losses.
🤨

Just got mine delivered, now thinking to return it because of 1 SSD and no free sync Frown
If you are thinking of returning it let me know, I'd be interested in buying it for cash if you are in the North East.

If anyone else is thinking of returning theirs I will buy it for $100 over cost. Cash in person only. Boston area. PM me.

You guys seriously considering returning a $1150 5800H 3070 full power laptop with 1TB drive?

Mine also has one 1T SSD, and two single-ranked RAMs.

I hardly play video games, so no freesync is not a big deal for me.

I like the monitor: it's easy on my eyes. Thermals seem to be better than my other laptop ASUS Rog Strix g15 advantage edition.

Overall, I am very pleased with my new L5 17!

Just mine with it. You will pay it off in about a year. You might also want to call them up to get a discount on the system.

What do you suggest saying to them in order to get that discount?
