The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 16" is very good for general use, while the Dell Latitude 5330 2-in-1 is good.
The Dell Latitude 5330 2-in-1 is a practical choice for those who prioritize portability and longer battery life, with a versatile design suitable for general tasks; however, it may fall short for more demanding applications due to less powerful CPU and RAM. The Lenovo Legion Slim 7, on the other hand, offers a superior screen, a more robust CPU, and greater RAM, catering well to intensive tasks and multitasking, but it trades off some portability and may have a shorter battery life due to its performance-focused hardware.

The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 has a better screen than the Dell Latitude 5330 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
For general use, where panel type, resolution, and brightness are key, the Dell's screen may lack sharpness and luminosity, while the Lenovo, with a better resolution and screen technology, provides clearer and brighter visuals. In engineering and design, accurate colors are crucial, and the Lenovo's higher color gamut coverage ensures more precise and vivid representations than the Dell. However, for gaming and 3D applications where high refresh rates are vital for smooth motion, both laptops fall short, as their screens are not optimized for the high refresh rates preferred in such scenarios.

NotebookCheck
Benjamin Herzig | November 2022
"The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 is a slim Legion notebook that is just as excellent with Nvidia & Intel. However, the Legion Slim 7i slightly sullied by lacklustre battery life. You get a slim aluminium chassis, great input devices, decent port selection, fast high-quality WQXGA display and great performance. Supporting Thunderbolt 4 is one advantage of the Intel/Nvidia model tested in this review. Moreover, this variant has slightly higher CPU performance as well as better GPU performance in certain applications (e.g. CUDA-based apps). The Lenovo Legion S7i is thin, premium and performant – but less efficient than its AMD counterpart."
