Seems like a decent deal in the current market?

11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-11800H (2.3GHz~4.6GHz)

1TB M.2 SSD
NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3070 Laptop GPU 8GB GDDR6 (130w)
Windows 10 Home, 2 Years Warranty
99WH Battery
Seems like a good build if you don't have the education account for the LENOVO Legion build. IMO if you have edu access then the LENOVO build is still better than this in terms of rams and screen with an AMD processor.
Hi, which one you are refer to please? Thanks

Actually AMD isnt the braindead choice when it comes to CPU anymore, the 11th gen mobile chips can compete with the zen3 just fine. In fact, they does better in gaming-largely thanks to the better boost clocks and L3 cache-and does better in productivity taskes the more power (above the 45w tdp) it takes compared to AMD competitors, not to mention you do get PCIE4.0 and Thunderbolt-both avalible on this machine. Of course, AMD is still better when both CPUs are locked to 45w power, and have the far better battery life. It comes down to what you prefer.
With that said, the l5p deal is better than the 15p xd hands down since it gets a mux switch whereas the 15p doesnt which means you would hardly ever get to take advantage of the 300hz screen. I guess only go for the 15p if one cant get educational discount, or they wanted the per key rgb (because we all know that adds a ton of performance boost) or thunderbolt access.
This Legion 5 Pro is a much better deal for the same price (if there is still stock):

Bigger and brighter WQXGA screen, 32GB RAM, Lenovo keyboard and most likely better battery life with Ryzen processor.
if this had a 3080 in it I'd be hitting buy now in a flash
