With the LOQ 15i (Gen 9), Lenovo is trying to take the crown for the best not-so-expensive laptop. This device can cause a revolution in the budget segment thanks to its fair price and great hardware under the bonnet. The machine is jam-packed. You can find it with Raptor Lake HX or HX Refresh CPUs with a 55W base power. The GPU variants also look good - one RTX 3000 model and two Ada Lovelace chips with decent TGPs.The device has a standard 15.6 form factor. That's why the display aspect ratio is 16:9. The base panel is a 1080p model with a 144Hz refresh rate which sounds fine for this pr[...]

In the world of budget gaming laptops, every dollar saved comes with a compromise. The Lenovo LOQ Essential 15" (Gen 9, 15IAX9E) doesn't just accept this reality; it embraces it, making calculated sacrifices to excel where it matters most for gamers. It throws all its weight behind raw performance and a surprisingly great screen, creating a high-value machine that punches far above its price tag. But these smart choices come with one baffling, potentially deal-breaking limitation. Is this the budget champion we've been waiting for, or a flawed hero?You can check the prices and configur[...]

The last few ASUS TUF Gaming devices that we have reviewed left us with positive impressions. The ASUS TUF Gaming A17 (FA707, 2023) has good cooling potential and long battery life and the same applies to the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 FA507. We got the successor of the latter in front of us - the ASUS TUF Gaming A15 (FA507, 2023).The new version has a similar design but the real deal is hidden under the bonnet. You can choose between a refreshed AMD Zen 3+ CPU and a more powerful Zen 4 chip. The mobile NVIDIA RTX 4000 GPUs are part of the package and they come with hefty TGPs which is something [...]

In the world of gaming laptops, you usually get what you pay for. But every now and then, a machine comes along that completely defies expectations. The MSI Katana 15 HX (B14Wx) is exactly that kind of surprise. On the outside, it looks like a standard, budget-conscious gaming laptop with a plastic chassis and a modest design. But under the hood, it's hiding a secret: it is an absolute performance monster. In our testing, this unassuming laptop didn't just compete with high-end rivals; it beat them, setting a new record as the fastest RTX 5070 laptop we have ever reviewed. Is this the best[...]

The Lenovo Legion 5i (15", Gen 10) looks like a refined productivity machine that would blend perfectly into any office.

Last-years TUF FX505 was a very important device for the marque. ASUS was not very strong in the budget-gaming segment with the likes of Lenovo bringing the Legion Y540 and the Ideapad L340 Gaming series to the table. However, the FX505 managed to offer good value and performance, and moreover, strengthened the relationship between the brand and AMD.As a result, ASUS was first in the line to receive the latest and greatest Ryzen 4000 CPUs, and boy did that workout. Currently, the TUF A15 (the successor to the FX505) is one of the most popular devices out there and as we saw with the 17-in[...]

The budget gaming laptop market is a constant balancing act between performance, features, and price, and the Lenovo LOQ 15 (Gen 10, 15AHP10) attempts to walk that tightrope with the grace of its premium Legion siblings. Designed for gamers who want robust performance without the eye-watering price tag, it promises a refined, mature aesthetic and solid core specs. But in a segment where every manufacturer has to cut corners somewhere, the real test is where those cuts are made. Has Lenovo managed to deliver a cool, capable, and enduring machine, or are there hidden compromises lurking bene[...]

MSI Katana's super budget characteristics are now part of history. The manufacturer has somewhat successfully converted the machine from an affordable to a mid-range product. While the main contributor to this is really NVIDIA, we have a thing or two to say about MSI's own participation.Today, our office smells like a freshly-baked MSI Katana 17 (B12V). Intuitively, the (B12V) part of the name indicates that it has a 12th Gen Intel processor. This means that some cost-cutting is becoming evident only by looking at the specs sheet.In addition to that, the Katana 17 (B12V) can be maxed [...]
