This is the first short ive made, i have a full rundown of wattages and comparisons of this to the full wattage neo, and to the legion you mentioned in a week or so.
This laptop is SUPER thin, so its performance is very good considering the size. even at low watts it easily outperforms a 5070

What do you mean like a fresh copy of windows? Like a restore? Or do you load up a full fresh install? I did a reset (online) as soon as I got mine, then did a "windows debloater" ( https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil ) and then uninstalled all the extra stuff still.
Have to agree.
I just got mine on Thursday and spent the evening setting it up and everything. The battery on mine was also brand new. The machine itself looked to be in perfect conditions with no issues at all. It was manufactured 8/27/25.
It's pretty loud and gets hot, but like it's been said in this post already that was all expected. The size feels great for what you are getting inside and for the money. The screen looks great! I use mine on a dock 95% of the time and so I don't mind the heat / noise as it's under the desk and away.
Oh and as mentioned the speakers suck. Wish there was a speaker upgrade for it 🤣
So overall cons:
- Gets warm
- Fans can be loud
- Speakers suck
- Battery life sucks
- Locked display at 240hz
Despite those, it's 100% worth it imo.Also 5070ti with 12gb? I don't know if its the same as desktop that has 16gb but if anyone can confirm...

In general, if you're the type of person who gets anxious about the lifespan of your PC hardware - especially when most of it will far outlive its usefulness - buying a gaming laptop is probably not for you. They basically sit there and slowly cook themselves in the hopes you'll replace it before it actually turns to slag. This isn't to say they're actually unreliable, but they do run hot.
The 5070 Ti Mobile is a desktop 5070 running at a lower power budget. The mobile 5080 is a desktop 5070 Ti; the 5090 is a 5080.
