That being said, both the LOQ 15 variants present strong value compared to the Legion Pro 5 16. But the AMD variant has an edge in overall CPU performance, runs cooler, is more power-efficient, and has better battery life. The Intel version provides better gaming grunt at 1080p and lower fan noise under load. Conversely, fan noise levels are manageable, and it is possible to adequately game at 1080p even in lower power profiles.Ĭhoosing between the Intel and AMD-powered LOQ 15 SKUs comes down to priorities. However, expectations need to be tempered with regards to build quality and heat emissions.'Īnother area where the Intel-based LOQ 15 disappoints is in terms of heat emissions.

The Lenovo LOQ 15 Core i7 checks most boxes and merits a high consideration if you're on the lookout for a capable 1080p gaming laptop around the US$1,200 or ₹1,00,00 mark.

However, performance is adequate for smooth 1080p gaming, thanks to the Intel i7-13620H processor and RTX 4050 graphics that can utilize more than its rated TGP. A more concerning aspect is that the LOQ 15IRH8's Core i7-13620H struggles to sustain its performance unlike what we've seen with the AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS-based LOQ 15APH8 or even the LOQ 16IRH8. The build quality understandably suffers from copious plastic. The QHD panel especially impresses with significantly improved color and response times over the FHD 144 Hz option. The LOQ 15 Core i7 features a 165 Hz QHD G-Sync display and 1080p webcam despite its low cost.
