Questions and answers

- Yes. The i7 and 16GB of RAM handle current games at 1080p well, and the cooling keeps frame rates steady over long sessions.
- Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?
- The Legion 5i has accessible memory and storage slots, so both can be expanded after purchase. Check the exact configuration for what is already fitted.
- How does it compare with the Legion 5?
- The 5i uses an Intel Core i7 where the Legion 5 uses AMD Ryzen chips. Performance is close; pick based on the specific configuration and price of each.
- Is it too heavy to carry to class?
- It is on the heavy side for a 15-inch laptop, so it suits a desk or a bag you do not carry all day. Expect to use the charger for long sessions.
- Does it have a numpad and full-size ports?
