Lenovo Legion 5a - Gen 11 (AMD)
We love the Legion 5 laptops for their overall quality, 15-inch form factor, solid performance, and great OLED screens. Especially if they're found under $1,500 on sale. This AMD version, however, does not perform quite as well as the 5i with Intel HX from last year which can be configured with the same GPU options. Regardless of whether you get a 5a or 5i, though, it's still a great laptop that offers a lot of value at the right price.

More compact and lightweight than 16-inch competitors
