The Lenovo Legion Slim 7, with its larger screen and high refresh rate, excels for gaming and fast motion visuals, complemented by strong performance suitable for engineering tasks. However, it's heavier, affecting portability. In contrast, the Lenovo Slim Pro 7 offers a higher resolution touchscreen and a lighter build for better portability, making it more versatile for general use and professional settings. Both have sufficient power for demanding tasks, but for intensive gaming or tasks requiring higher GPU capabilities, the Legion may have the edge. Nonetheless, the Slim Pro offers a balance between performance and mobility, with a longer battery life, which is beneficial for prolonged work sessions away from power sources. Give Feedback

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."

Matthew S. Smith | May 2023
"The Lenovo Slim Pro 7 is an attractive, portable laptop that’s ideal if you need a combination of CPU and GPU performance. It also nails the fundamentals with solid connectivity, an enjoyable keyboard, a large touchpad, and top-notch webcam. Display quality is a weakness, but it’s an acceptable compromise for the laptop’s extremely competitive $1,199 MSRP. The Slim Pro 7 is a versatile, affordable laptop and hard to beat for the price."
