For your reference.

Hi, are you mean the USB C port at the Legion Slim 5 14 ? If yes, nope, the USB-C port in this laptop are just normal USB 3.2, not thunderbolt 3/4, you may not able to get thunderbolt benefit from this port as what my knowledge tell.

Previously, I using ROG Ally its also using USB Type-C combo port (with USB 3.2 Gen2, support DisplayPort™ 1.4) same as Lenovo Legion Slim 5.

Its able to connect to my thunderbolt dock and display out 2 display. I wonder anyone Lenovo Laptop with same USB C, 3.2 Gen 2 able test it out.

Buy from their shopee store laa. Easy

There are reasons to buy from their official site like promotions, or most importantly, customization!

Can pick exactly what components to throw into the pc

No wonder laa, their shopee shop like no sales one

Hi Sifu sekalian, I'm looking to get a 14 inch thin/lightweight laptop within budget from 2.5k to 3k. Currently looking at below from Lenovo website, any comment or others model?

Well, for sure it is mandatory to upgrade the ram to 16GB, so

For the first one, I would absolutely pay for these following upgrades for a better experience
+RM150 for 16GB RAM
+RM10 for TLC SSD
And the following 2 I would also add but you can decide if you need it or not
+RM20 for webcam upgrade
+RM40 for keyboard backlight

as for the other model
+RM150 for 16GB RAM
+RM 0 to upgrade to Metal from plastic (Why is it not even the default?)
looks like keyboard is already by default upgraded to backlit, could remove to save RM40 but I wouldn't
Optionally, can +RM40 for the webcam upgrade
I would pay +RM10 to upgrade from WIFI6 to WIFI 6E
Could also consider +RM10 for a Slim (smaller) Charger so its easier to bring that

Also, for both of them you can add Lenovo 600 Bluetooth Silent Mouse and Lenovo 16-inch Laptop Backpack B210 Black(ECO) for RM1 each at checkout so for sure add those as well

Just buy the rm2579 one unless you need that touch screen. IdeaPad is good enough for daily usages

I am thinking to buy a laptop with touch screen with budget of $6k and any recommendation? Can check if latest have any promotion code to apply.

Anyone has experience with lenovo legion 5 slim 14 inch? Is it worth getting directly from the site now?

Assuming RM6K

You can get a decent ThinkPad with that

Example ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 AMD

Upgrade to Ryzen 7, 32GB RAM, touch screen, 512gb ssd, backlit keyboard, larger battery, webcam
Downgrade warranty to 1 year instead of onsite 3 year (need to uncheck "show best deals" button on warranty page)
(feel free to upgrade/downgrade cpu, ram, card reader, battery or other specs as needed to increase/decrease costs)

right under 6k after voucher MY1212

However, you can add ThinkVision P24h-30 23,8" Monitor to cart for RM1, can resell that monitor to save nearly 1k (MSRP of the monitor) or use it yourself
it is considered a "high end" monitor, being 1440p and colour accurate (and also would charge the laptop)
also +RM1 mouse and +RM1 backpack

Now, technically T14 Gen4 AMD is cheaper for the same specs , but I consider paying the little more extra of the P14s to get the monitor is absolutely worth it

Also use shopback for some cashback

On the other hand, there are probably some cheaper options under IdeaPad but personally I prefer ThinkPad

Is this quotation good? Or suggest similar model?

Looks good, cant even get that price normally on the site
I would suggest paying the little bit extra for the fingerprint sensor
saves having to type out pin/password everytime

Wow, 4k for that. That's pretty good deal.

Unless your job specifically require you to use touchscreen, forget about it
Lots of users in my workplace at first wanted a touchscreen laptop but on the next replacement cycle after 5 years, all of them said the same thing: "I don't really use the touchscreen"
And that includes the directors/CEO/COO/CFO

The touchscreen feature are just going to add a few more bucks to the laptop cost

Hello All,

Any promo code for purchasing Lenovo Gaming Laptop on 2024?

They have automatic promo bro.

Just bought legion 5 slim 4060 ryzen 7 RM6.4k free monitor mouse headphone bag

Their shop in shopee price almost the same but I dont think they got free monitor.

But they said shipping 6-9 days but now estimate date of shipping for my laptop is on the 26th. Haiz.
