Lenovo Legion 5 Advantage Edition review: affordable AMD gamingedit

The 15.6inch IPS LCD display, with its 1,920 x 1,080 pixel resolution, is typical of the laptop as a whole: its good, but it’s not the best in class. Brightness tops out at 250 nits, so you’re going to get more vibrant and better looking screens elsewhere, but we’ve still been happy with what the screen offered for movies, day-to-day computing and of course gaming. The 5ms response time, 165Hz refresh rate and support for AMD FreeSync means that we didn’t notice any problems with tearing and ghosting.
