  • Lenovo Legion Y520 is a very good entry level gaming laptop that comes with cooling system and it does keep the hardware heat build up under control. Now you can go with Intel Core i5 that does not come with SSD drive and you get a 1TB drive only with 8GB...

  • Good specifications, FHD display, Runs cool and quiet, Good speakers
  • Average battery life
  • There is nothing unique but it is one of the most powerful gaming laptop coming at the price of Rs 92,490 price in India with this configuration. If you want a laptop for gaming as well as for your regular productivity work then you definitely can go for...

  • Of the gaming laptops I've tested this year, I think the Legion Y520 is my favourite. It's a boring design and thermal throttling is a minor issue. However, it's built just as well as the competition, performs fractionally better in gaming tasks and has a...

  • Very good specifications, Games run very well at 1920x1080, Runs cool and quiet, Good speakers
  • Flimsy lid, Uncomfortable trackpad, Lots of bloatware
  • Lenovo has put forward a strong effort, but we like the insides of the Legion Y520 a lot more than its outsides. Styling is a subjective matter, but we can't help but wish that Lenovo hadn't gone quite so literal chasing after the "gamer" cred. The flimsy...

  • Good for 1080p gaming, Well built, Good Speakers
  • Software issue
  • The Lenovo Legion Y520 can be recommended to anyone who is looking to play games in 1080p. It has some drawbacks, but none of those are real deal breakers...

  • And the winner is. The notion of a budget gaming notebook seems supremely bland, tepid, and uninteresting. Gaming is an expensive hobby, and it's often the premium products that generate the most interest with their cutting-edge designs and blazing fast...

  • Sleek design, Aesthetically-pleasing matte finish, Back-lit keys, Harman/Dolby audio, Keys are a joy to type on, Well-ventilated setup, Capable internals
  • All-plastic body, Matte finish is extremely sensitive to fingerprint marks and smudges, Viewing angles aren't that accommodating
  • The Lenovo Legion Y520, even though it's the basic package, is still a well-appreciated effort from the company. It has a sleek-looking design, back-lit keys which are a joy to type on, impressive audio, a nicely-ventilated setup, and has capable internal...

  • Decent performance, Good selection of ports
  • Terrible display quality, Annoying touchpad, Average battery life
  • The Lenovo Legion Y520 is a smart move for the company – make a laptop that's durable and can run most games, and slap on an affordable price tag. At AED 3,099 the Legion Y520 is a great start for someone who wants to game on the go but doesn't want t...
