Bought 2 to test out
Okay so I bought the Lenovo Legion 7i Intel core i9, 32 gb ram, 1tb ssd, nvidia 4070 (left) And Alienware m16 r2 intel ultra core 7, 32gm ram, 1tb sad, nvidia 4070 (right)
After a bit of usage i have noted the following: Display: lenovo wins! Alienware display is tinted yellow after much configurations only slight improvement is noted but the yellow tint is still there.
Audio: alienware wins! The sound is good but compared to lenovo it’s much better! Lenovo audio is very low and muted despite increasing it to full.
Keyboard: alienware wins. Lenovo takes a bit to get used to because the whole keyboard feels compressed and the keys are smaller than the alienware keys. Plus the keybord keys are so sensitive and flat that i am more prone to mistakes. The WASD is also a bit weird to use on lenovo. The W’a position is a bit too left.
Processor: lenovo wins! Its much faster and games play smoother than alienware but the difference is very little that if the laptops weren’t side by side you won’t notice
Fan noise: lenovo wins, has quieter fans. But one negative is that Alienware fans can be manually controlled while lenovo does not have that feature.
Heating: alienware wins! Although the fans are a bit louder, they also work better. My Lenovo ride next to trackpad gets very very warm while the alienware only gets warm underneath the spacebar. Because of this typing with lenovo is a bit hard because the part where my right palm sits is unpleasant.
Overall, can’t decide which to keep and which to return…..
