That’s not the point here though. Gaming laptops are the perfect balance between performance and form factor and that’s the reason a lot of brands make gaming laptops right from the mid-range segment of around Rs. 50,000 to the premium segment over a lakh. Two parameters that are common among all gaming laptops are power and RGB lighting. And the Legion 7i from Lenovo offers an overdose of both. We have been using the Lenovo Legion 7i for the past couple of days and here are our first impressions of the beastly machine....

The DayDream will be made up of both hardware and software which is a clear sign that Google wants to take control of the entire environment and eventually reduce the variables. The new mobile powered VR is expected to mark its presence in the next generation mobile phones since it would need additional sensors and displays.

In contrast, the 14-inch Precision 5470 aims to provide a more portable option, with Dell claiming that it’s “the world’s thinnest and lightest 14-inch workstation”. In fact, at 1.48kg, the Precision 5470 is only slightly heavier than Apple’s recently upgraded 13-inch MacBook Pro (1.4kg), but it outguns the M2 MacBook Pro in terms of raw performance. That lightweight design comes with a heavyweight price, though, especially for the Core i7-based model reviewed here, and Dell also makes a few cost-cutting decisions that are disappointing for a laptop in this price range....

As smartphone prices continue to climb, it sounds like we’re going to see one integral component for the future start helping to hike prices as well. According to OnePlus CEO Pete Lau, the inclusion of 5G radios, both for sub-6GHz standards and mmWave, will require some reworking of not only smartphone design, but also pricing.
