What site is getting 15% cash back? Most I've seen as of now is 12% and 13%

Also for those trying to replicate deal, please note $100 off coupon is "HOLIDAYSURPRISE"
His order takes 4 months to build, by which time cash back already expired.

Anyone happen to know how thermals are between the Legion 5, 5 Pro, and 7 series?
The pro series has the best thermals they have to offer, the 7 series is their more premium line with more upgrades to the laptop but not really in terms of performance. Someone else may be able to clarify more

For anyone that forgot to add new customer coupon, you can call Lenovo and ask them to do it on your order and they will give you cashback, I got lucky they discount me 100usd, when you call them just say I forgot to add new customer coupon and I would like to add it can you please help me, after that they will ask question like how much is that code give you and just say I think 100usd don't say 50usd and they will try to give you around 50-100usd depend on your luck, most people got 75usd. Good luck
Also just to add on this topic, the 16gb version will come with "slow" ram but not the one that youtuber review, it's better than the slow ram few months ago, well tbh with you this one run game like a beast so you do not need to change the ram unleash you really need it, it run around 90-110fps RDR2 almost ultra setting at 1080 and around 60-80fps on 2k, also idk if this is region because peoples in USA Vram will be from Samsung but other region will have different brand.

Are you referring to the RAM used by the GPU? Isn't that DDR6?

Sorry for the confusing, they have 2 version 16gb and 32gb of ram and the 16gb version got bad ram "IRx16" but I got from this month and the laptop come with slow ram but faster than the one on yotube review so it's mean if I upgrade ram to the fast one "IRx8" then it's only have small boots like 5% instead of 10-15%. For the comment about samsung vram it's the Vram manufacturer which I think only people mining care about but for gaming it is the same as other brand.

Memory rankings matter more with Ryzen CPUs than Intel. Using 1Rx16 in RAM instead of 1Rx8 is just another way for OEMs to save money at the expense of the consumer, like SMR HDDs.

CB is tracked at the time you place the order, not when it's shipped. Also, always take screenshots of the offer before and after the purchase showing that cb was activated. That's what I normally and usually do.

Not sure why this has so many upvotes? $200 more than the admittedly YMMV Walmart deal. I guess it has intel if you want that? But the Ryzen model already has a MUX and is plenty good for eSports titles. Also, the Legion I7 Pro is only $150 in another thread which has downvotes. You're insane if you're spending this much on a laptop and don't think the niceties of the 7 warrant that comparatively small amount.

I factored in the cash back into the price on this deal. So with the 12% cash back, the final price would be about the same as the Walmart deal after tax.

As far as Legion 7 vs Legion 5 Pro, I could have gone with either. I wouldn't part a premium for the L7, but I can see some would prefer it.

Walmart deal isn't remotely widely available and this deal is still better after stacking CB, Chase, and Amex offers.

I do prefer the Legion 7(i) though for it's improved features and it's not actually much different in price.

3070 laptops from Lenovo and Dell have been slick this Black Friday season with all extra CB and credit card stacking. Choose whatever your preference of CPU, brand, and build preferences. They are all great deals.

Anyone know if the 5i Pro can use XMP profiles for when we upgrade the ram ourselves?
