I so appreciate your reasonable and fair explanations. So many other channels talk about how one laptop "destroyed" and "defeated" the other in performance tests that are less than 15 percent different. Here you attribute some of the difference to just luck (i.e. better silicon). And you could have really been tough on that Legion's screen, which is so much worse in every measurable way than the Helios. However, you keep pointing out that Lenovo offers another display option that will likely be comparable to the Helios' screen. Thanks, JT, for another great video. Have a great weekend man.

As a computer shop employee, I often test new gaming laptops during my free time to provide accurate recommendations to our customers. Based on my observations, models from Acer, Asus, and MSI (High End) consistently perform well under continuous load. However, laptops from Lenovo, Dell, and HP tend to experience a noticeable drop in performance over time, sometimes even causing lag during gameplay.

I bought Acer Helios Neo 16 i7 14700hx and RTX 4060 Version. I wanted to go with Legion for the same specs but the only thing that stopped me from purchasing Legion was that it doesn't have Thunderbolt ports. It's 2024 and even $800 - $1000 laptops come with at least 1 thunderbolt Port. I don't understand why Lenovo chose to not give Thunderbolt port in their laptops this year where as every other Brand is considering giving it away in their hier tier Gaming Laptops 🥲 Personally I am already happy with my Acer Helios Neo 16 since it's my first Gaming Laptop and Performance that offers this device is more than enough for me for Works like doing After Effects and Premier Pro and Davinci Resolve. I rarely do gaming 😅 It would be so hactic for me on the Legion because of its too much configurable settings in the Lenovo Vantage Software. Sometimes simple is better over lots of customisation for Content Creators 😅

Hey Jarrod ! I have a Lenovo 5 Pro for over 2 years now and everything was amazing with it : gaming, productivity, 3d modeling. But like a month after the end of the minimal warranty, things started to go south : some keys of the keyboard failing to respond consistently, all the usb ports completely being useless except for charging devices... I took a warranty long enough so I hope that Lenovo will make it work again (amazing after-sale service though), but still I thought to give you my personal feedback on that beast that the Lenovo 5 Pro is (or was for now..).

In game, the speed of my neo even reach 8000, I can not believe my eyes. The popular Ssd speed read test indicates that my neo is over unbelievable 7000, while its write speed is also amazing fast than most ssd including legion 5 pro.

That was the deciding factor for me a couple years ago. I absolutely loved it and couldn't believe how much more convenient they were being on the back instead of being on the sides. Im genuinely surprised they stopped putting the ports on the back and put them on the sides and closer to the front.

What I really hate on Lenovo laptops is fan control. Look at the ridicolously low tempratures in balanced mode. The gpu stays 25°C under its limit of 87°C! The fans could run much quieter. The helios is much quieter in balanced with same power levels (43 vs 48db) which can be the difference between bearable noise without the need to wear headphones and disturbingly loud noise. Well, you can fix it using custom mode, right? No, you can't! Custom mode is a scam, because it only lets you raise fan speeds but not lower them. So you can make the Legion 5 only louder than it already is. Thanks for nothing, Lenovo

I got the predator Helios neo 16 2023 version and. And I love it way more than everything else in this video because it was cheaper and the 4060 and above they all do the same thing like the 4090 laptop version and the laptop version there’s no difference for me so get 4060 every time, for cheaper and good

It's 2024 and Lenovo still offers only 10Gb/s USB-C on their 1500 USD+ laptops? Sorry, but that's a hard NO for me. Thunderbolt 4 or USB4 is great if you want to use the laptop in more "Workstation" role and want to use a TB4 dock as then you just disconnect 1 or 2 cables (if using power source separately). I love Lenovo and currently have a Legion 5 with 10th Gen Intel CPU so an upgrade is really necessary now. But c'mon Lenovo! No Thunderbolt, no deal!

@@amr4336 honestly the laptop has been phenomenal. The build quality on the legions is better than asus and others. One thing I wish Lenovo would do is make a laptop larger than 16 inches.

5:10 I'd argue that the helios should get a *higher* score because of the torx screws since they are way less likely to strip and so are more suited for being unscrewed and re-screwed repeatedly.

I'm rocking a Nitro 2022 with a 3070ti and 17-12560h whihc i added 16 gb ram to make it 32 gb ram and since Jarrod showed us how 3070ti is closer in performance to 4070 than you might think it is making me super satisfied that i chose acer over a somewhat superior but much more expensive Lenovo. PS I was pleasantly surprised by the wins by the Helios... i fully expected the lenovo to outperform! Wow For those curious I bought the Acer Nitro for 1230$ ish and got a RAM for another 40$ ish in my currency. So yea Acer all the way... meawhile Lenovo never offered a 3070ti in my country and only sold underpowered 3050 and 4060 or 1600$ 4070 granted with ddr5 ram but still almost 33% costlier.

@@uhhhidk8300Price difference. It was best deal I could get, paying few hundreds for pro with same specs was not worth it for me. If I could get 5 pro for good price, I would probably get 2023 model, but Im totally happy with 5i, nothing to complain about. I would say you can't go wrong with any of them, it just depends on your budget and specs you need, just get whatever have best deal with specs you need.After watching many videos I decided to go with rtx 4060 laptop, 4070 with 8gb was not worth it, but 4080 was outside my budget I wanted to spend at the monent. I agree, naming is absolutely terrible, have no idea why they make it so complicated.

I had a acer nitro 5 ryzen 7 5800h + rtx 3080. The powerbrick itself only really provided ~130 watts or so. So in anything cpu and gpu heavy you were draining the battery. Found it a weird design choice and during a longer gaming session you might have ended up with 40% battery left while plugged in. Not really a great design imo, for multiple reasons. Batteries deteriorate so your session time even while plugged in would get shorter and shorter. I think it should be mandatory for a laptops powerbrick to fully sustain the system under heavy load and the battery being not touched in any way when plugged in. Definitely a way of manufacturers to cut costs, but a bad way imo.

Should I buy an i7 13620H + 4060 140w laptop or wait for some time and buy an i7 'x' gen H series + 5050/5060 laptop. Anyone can share your opinion. I am happy to buy immediately or i can wait for sometime until the 5000 series launch. Because its nearly 2 years since the release of the 4000 series. So i don't want to miss out on the new tech GPU. If that is the case will 4000 series laptops prices dip? Then which is good to buy a 4060 or new 5000 series that beat 4060? Very long question huh 😔
