Title: The new Lenovo Legion 7 debuts with a flagship display, up to AMD Ryzen 9 APUs and NVIDIA's latest GeForce RTX 30 GPUs

Lenovo's flagship gaming laptop of 2021 is here, and it packs a 16-inch QHD display with a 16:10 aspect ratio. The Legion 7 16ACH-06 also includes the latest AMD Ryzen 9 5000 series APUs, NVIDIA's new GeForce RTX 30 GPUs and more I/O than you could shake a stick at.

300W power brick must mean it has some huge TDP for the GPU/CPU. Happy to see they're using Ryzen too.
Also they better have solved that huge issue with the glued hinge on Legion 7. Either way, I'm broke

My main issue with the Legion 7 (likely 7 Slim and 5 Pro, too) is 1.3 mm low keyboard travel which disqualified it as my X1 Extreme (Gen1) work laptop replacement.

The Legion 5 (AMD Ryzen 7 4800H max. 62W + RTX 2060, 115W TGP, 51dB) used a 230W power brick and had adequate 1.5mm key travel albeit an overall mushy typing experience.

I don't mind waiting for the reviews of the Legion 7 and if it can be faster and quieter than the closest competitor: Tongfang Schenker XMG Neo 15 (AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX + RTX 3080, 150W TGP, 56dB).
