The world of PC gaming is a difficult place to stamp your feet in. It's a world where your PC can play a multitude of games, but the price of the parts that need to be combined to make that PC can vary tremendously.
Some would pay enough money for a PC that's just good enough to stand with a couple of benchmark PC games for that certain year, games that test the limit of your graphics processor like Tomb Raider, Crysis, Resident Evil 5, and so on.
Then, there are those that would be willing to pay top dollar for a chance at the most advanced computer parts for the sole purpose of assembling the perfect gaming PC. And still, there are those inbetween, or perhaps those that want something more.
Those that quest for the power and might of a gaming PC but compressed into a package that can be brought around with simplicity comfort. This type of people I speak of is the type that seeks for a combination of those two aspects through the use of gaming laptops, and Lenovo has just jumped into the fray by introducing its gaming brand known as Legion and a couple of derivative laptops as its first foot soldiers.
Asus has Republic of Gamers, Acer has Predator, and now Lenovo has Legion. According to Techspot, Lenovo has outfitted these two new laptops of the Legion brand, the Y520 and the Y720, in the mid-range option which still uses the latest CPUs and GPUs from Intel and Nvidia. While the Y520 seems to be on the more mild range of gaming laptops, the Y720 seems to be the type of laptop that panders to the type of gamers who desire more performance with their mobility.
While the parts in the laptop seem to be high in quality and recent in release, it seems The Verge expresses a bit of doubt in the Legion gaming brand as a whole. According to them, the Legion gaming brand laptops look as if they're trying hard to look like a combination of other laptop themes. Specifically, they say that it looks like a "hybrid clone of Alienware and Asus laptops".
Not only that, they continue to go on to say that while Dolby Atmos is a new and impressive feature to include in the gaming laptop brand, it only panders to a scant few games out there that fully support it, thus bringing it into question of whether it is worth it to shell out that much money for sound hardware that is barely used by old and recent games alike.
Of course, the opinions of the laptops differ from person to person, but when standing next to laptop gaming and PC gaming giants like Alienware, Asus, and Acer, it seems like Lenovo's alliance with Razer will truly be put to the test.
