To anyone who's facing problems with the coupons, remove 'Lenovo support' if it's automatically selected for both the coupons to work.

Intel might be little faster but crappier battery and intel runs way too hot when compared to AMD
Quote from Zizo123 View quoted comment :
How's the CPU compared to Intel offerings? Does anyone know how the cooling system performs? Is it a liquid metal paste?
Quote from wildpig1234 View quoted comment :
the i7-13th gen version seems to have a lot faster cpu
I really wonder where people get their info... this is a desktop CPU, chiplet design. It's very fast but has high idle power consumption for AMD.

i have the old legion 5 pro with 6800H and 3070. This seems to be an incremental upgrade for both CPU and GPU rather than a high step up...

I also have the legion 5 pro intel with3070. I know the intel one might have more heat. but going from i7-11 H cpu to i7-13H would be a much bigger deal than going from 6800H to 77H

I'm looking more for a productivity laptop, but this is tempting. Is the battery life tradeoff/noise going to be a big step down from the P14s/P16s?

I can never understand how people pick laptops without considering reliability and warranty. Just the idea that something could go wrong six months from now and brick some obscure component which results in the entire laptop not working, having to send it in for repair for potentially weeks, and going through all that hassle.. macbooks are the only ones I know that have very strong reliability.

I wanted to get a razer blade but all the talk of warranty/reliability issues, how do people just decide on one? Is it a gamble or what?
Sounds like you haven't actually looked at reliability.

ThinkPad flagships are both reliable and highly repairable. MacBooks are only the first, never the latter.

And companies can get better or worse. Apple was not as good as Asus back in 2010 when square trade release a massive study on hardware problems different companies laptops would have had the 3-year and five year mark.

I couldn't get the "Remove" button to do anything. Tried on Chrome and Firefox. I was unable delete their forced warranty and was limited to only one promo code.

What worked for me was: when at the Warranty Upgrade section, changing it from the (default) recommended "Legion Ultimate Support" 1yr/$0.01 to the more basic "Depot Support" 1yr/$0.01 and leaving it in. After that add the CELEBRATE2023 promo, then the EXTRA5 code and both $70 discounts took.

This is a significant upgrade over the 6800H. (I had a 6800H with 3060 and it died)

6800H was 10% to 20% slower than 12700H.

7745HX is roughly equivalent to 13700HX. Both are 10% improvement over 12700H.

7745HX runs quieter than 13700HX. Both run quieter than 6800H and keyboard is cooler. I leave mine in performance mode.

This generation is easier to open up as well. And port selection / arrangement is better in this generation particularly for AMD. Only thing is that neither AMD or Intel have Thunderbolt / USB4. Last year, Intel did.

got it down to $1193 with id.me

I just wish that the i7 version was as cheap. The i7 cpu is much faster on multicore benchmarks than the ryzen
In August I got the 7745HX / 4060 with 165Hz 300 nits screen for $1009 with ultimate support. Was worried about screen brightness but has worked out fine. Would say that the anti glare coating seems thicker than prior year's 500 nits screen. Colors for media are nice but would say text / webpages not as nice. Wondering if the 500 nits screen would have been better.

notebookcheck's benchmarks show 7745HX is often faster than 13700HX in everyday usage. Oddly, 7645HX Legion Pro 5 benchmarked even better in productivity benchmarks but very weak in multicore.

Back in August, the AMD vs Intel price difference wasn't much so I would expect to see a good deal on the Intel version soon.

Picked this up a month ago for a bit more and very happy with it. Work and gaming no problem and the screen is bright. Love the feel and build. Rick solid when using it. Battery could be better for it didn't last as long as my previous laptop. Overall very happy with this beast.

How long do you think the battery would last for gaming?

Gaming on battery is going to be a very bad experience. Generally when gaming on a laptop you always want to be plugged into the wall unless you enjoy sub 30 fps choppy gameplay. The battery is more for lite productivity tasks or watching youtube or netflix.
