Both these materials feel a bit cheap in comparison to the interior.Ī metallic lid would have been nice, preferably a thicker one like on the Asus TUF, as the lid feels somewhat flimsy as it is, so I’d be careful when carrying this Legion Y530 in the backpack. The underbelly and bezel around the screen are made from rougher plastic, while the hood gets a patterned texture, with tiny concentric ripples spreading away from the LEGION logo. The palm-rest and keyboard deck get a smooth soft finishing that feels very nice to the touch, but will show smudges easily. The Legion Y530 is thinner than the TUF FX505, but at the same time also heavier, at almost 5.2 lbs.Īs for the choice in materials, plastic is used all around for the outer-case and inner chassis. The Legion Y530 is one of the few gaming laptops with small bezels in its segment, but not one of a kind, as Asus also offers the TUF Gaming FX505 (available Q4 2018) and I’d expect others to have similar products as well in the next months. There’s still a big chin underneath though, and with 8 mm bezels on both the sides and on top Lenovo had to adopt a nose-cam underneath the display.

The status LEDs are placed on the side, so away from the user, but the power button is just beneath the screen and is always lit, which is rather annoying when watching a movie in dark room, but at least it’s fairly dim an you’ll learn to ignore it.Īs far as the footprint goes, you can tell from the bezels around the screen this is a compact computer.

Two main aspects set the Legion Y530 apart from most other entry and mid-range gaming laptops: the clean looks and the compact format. Specs as reviewedġ5.6 inch, 1920 x 1080 px, 60 Hz, IPS, non-touch, matteġ TB 7200 rpm HDD (2.5″) + empty M.2 PCIe slot We’ve gathered all our impressions below, so read on if you want to know where the Lenovo Legion Y530 excels, where it falls short and whether it’s the right buy for you or not. Out test unit is a higher-end configuration, with the i7-8750H processor and GTX 1050 Ti graphics, a configuration available as of August 2018 for around $1000 in the US and 1000 EUR over here across the pond.

We’ve spent time with a retail-version of the Legion Y530, several months after the series was launched, so enough time to address the potential issues of the early models. You will however have to accept the all-plastic construction, the 60 Hz screen with only an average-quality panel, a cluncky touchpad or the non-RGB keyboard, but these shouldn’t be deal-breakers for most of you, especially since you’ll find very few competitive alternatives in this price range. Its compact build, clean design, nice backlit keyboard and an IPS screen are among its selling points, as well as a fair-sized battery and a cooling solution that squeezes excellent performance out of the hardware inside.
