TLDR: It should be really good for a windows machine non gaming.

Well, according to the guy earlier in the thread, a 3050 dGPU automatically disqualifies it for people wanting to game.
Which is ludicrous.
If you're interested in the slim pro, also look at the lg gram 16" pro w/3050. Although it's 1200.

- OLED / HDR is definitely more vivid on the Legion but I don't think it's that much better compared to the already great screen on the Slim. Especially taking into account OLED trade offs like higher battery drain and screen maintenance to prevent burn in.
- The fans on the Legion make a high pitched whistle, even in Quiet mode. It's not even that loud but it gets irritating.
- The Slim is only ~ 1/2 lb lighter but it feels substantially lighter to carry around. The odd shape of the Legion also contributes to the awkward feel.
There's nitpicks I have about both models but I'm willing to live with the Pro X since I got a good deal on it. If gaming isn't a factor for you, I would recommend looking at the Slim 7 deal posted a few weeks ago ($700).

Good luck!

I see we still haven't been able to get over this after I stopped responding for the sake of moving on.
I'm simply pointing out that you recommended a laptop with an objectively inferior GPU, no OLED screen, a completely different screen size, and it costs $150 more. My point is that it wasn't a similar like-for-like laptop and wasn't particularly helpful in reference to this thread.
Your suggestion would be like if I went to a thread about a laptop deal sporting a 4080 and went "I'd recommend this other laptop with a 4060 GPU with a smaller screen that costs more". It would likely receive a similar response from people saying it isn't comparable.
I'm sorry if my take on your recommendation bothered you that much to the point that you're still thinking about it a day later. I'll be sure to avoid criticizing any of your comments in the future.

Don't give up on trying to find an open box. I find that checking in the morning shortly before/after the store opens will yield the best results. It helps if you have a few Best Buys near you too of course.
And with this currently being on sale, there's a good chance you'll see some more returns in the coming days as people buy it and change their mind.
My open box was listed as "Good" but was in pristine condition and I'm not convinced it was ever even turned on. So definitely keep checking and try your luck if one pops up near you.

I generally agree that especially with DLSS, a 3050 punches far above what previous xx50 cards used to. But at some point that 6GB of VRAM will be a limiting factor. If you want anything at all future-proof for at least 2-3 years, I'd recommend the 8GB 4060. Some games will still eat that up quick, but DLSS 3 helps a ton to offset that, especially at 1440/1600p.
LPDDR5X is running at 6400MT/s or 7200MT/s or faster and at very low latency (my LPDDR5X 6400 is at 18 CAS Latency according to HWINFO). Find that in a SODIMM.

This hands down.
