Lenovo Legion Pro 7 16
One of the best 50-series laptops. We especially like the 5080 and 5070 Ti configurations as they offer good value The Legion Pro 7 offers a bright screen, comfortable keyboard, and great performance for its components when compared to similar devices. It has a fun gamer aesthetic that isn't too obnoxious for students or working professionals. It does get a bit warm on the keyboard deck when compared to the Asus Strix Scar 16 listed below. Our biggest issue is usually the price, but if you see it on a good sale per our price tracker, that's a good time to snatch it up.

Poor battery life
Gets a bit warm when under load
