As "william blake" pointed out, this scoring system ignores some important key areas. First of all, this unit is for what it offers, and that also should be considered in the score. Would you compare a Mercedes with a Renault? Probably not. You would compare it with a Audi/BMW. Very noisy, very hot and glossy reflective screen. Not so sexy esp for the price!!

average processor,,, glossy 60hz pmw-blinkin oled with burn-in feature,, noise,,  average battery life...
podium, indeed.

Hi, what a great review. Most of content is quite clear, though actually I'd prefer more comparisons this one with a new XPS15, Razer blade15 oled and Surface book3 15", to clearly understand how these high-end 4k allrounders can perform.

Interesting that its SSD becomes lower rated than the previous edition, had something wrong, or had the bios get some updated yet?

I'm with Mirek.  Please add a search for laptops without PWM.  Also for Matte displays.   Glossy is so three years ago and as dumb as touch screens for a laptop.

talk to me more about it  8) love to hear every bit of it!

First thing I'm checking in a review is if the screen brightness uses PWM. Currently I have ThinkPad with PWM and I will never, NEVER again buy a laptop with PWM.
This literally hurts my eyes and I cannot use this screen for longer period of time. I have a comparison with work laptop from Dell which doesn't use PWM, that is really night and day for eye strain. Not sure if I'm really one of the few that are so affected by this, or it's just a matter of not being aware of the difference for most of the users...
By the way, is it possible (or can you add this) to narrow down the search for reviews only for laptops without PWM?

How can there be PWM? It's an OLED, there is literally no physical backlight with that technology.

60Hz PWM just sucks. Other companies use minimum 240Hz (e.g. Lenovo) in their OLEDS.

"The Core i7-10875H clearly sprints past the old hexa-core favorite, the Core i7-9750H. In the Cinebench R20 multi-core test, the improvement amounts to 55% to 65%."

This is a BS. It is only about 20% faster.

Huh, I wonder why the Cinebench r20 score is so high compared to Aorus 15G (see Hardware Unboxed @ youtube) and the Aero 17 (see Jarrod'sTech @ youtube).

Would be curious about the package power consumption during that run. Did it maybe go beyond even 62W?

Great review, When is the legion 7i review coming?

This laptop is okay,  waiting for the Aorus review to see if thermals are any better compare to this one...

41 decibel in browsing, good for creators with the cooling pad, headphones and nobody around.
taking the lead sure.
your rating system is broken, guys. sad to see.
