hi all,

thanks for having this thread.

i placed an order yesterday night not knowing this thread exist. so, my order was without any coupon or discount.

then, i found this thread. and read the tips from sifus here.... notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

i immediately chat with online cs this morning at 9 to cancel my order thinking to reorder to apply coupon (CARE)

then the cs proceeded to cancel my old order and said he can provide me discount  rclxm9.gif  rclxm9.gif

so, i reorder on the spot, and i got 10% discount which is higher than CARE! Wow!

for those looking for discount, just chat with cs (the coupon code used by cs is LENXHSBC - i'm not using hsbc card)

i didn't confirm order immediately as i needed to ensure my previous order is really cancelled. (takut reading from some of the issues with double order  sweat.gif )

i also check with delivery issue, he said 6-12 weeks (which i'm fine, not urgent) and gave me his lenovo email add for me to contact if got any issue. well, at least it's not a general email add.

my spec:

Legion 5 Pro
AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H Processor
16 GB (2 x 8 GB) SO-DIMM DDR4 3200MHz
1 TB M.2 2280 SSD
NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX™ 3050 Ti 4GB GDDR6 (i'm not a gamer, don't judge  whistling.gif )
1YR Onsite upgrade from 1YR Courier/Carry-in

fingers crossed, hopefully delivery got earlier than expected or no further delay  thumbup.gif
*
Thanks man, thanks for the great saving.

Will buy similar spec like your, good decision.

The waiting time is really long, but the price beat any shoppee seller.

i'm really curious how can this be changed so suddenly as the laptops are customised. Instead, I think it's the system that already set the timeline, so the cs just update according to the actual dates.

Ordered yesterday, they have shipped out backpack and mouse except the laptop.

I think backpack and mouse have ready stock in Malaysia but laptop need to get from China.

Used google chrome too, yours is customized, I just order pre-build unit (4 weeks for the laptop to ship out)

Charged full to my credit card and bank send confirmation about the payment.

Tried to use the code today, but it has expired. (just to test for fun)

Don't too happy 1st and sorry my poor english , i bought on 31 July and also got the confirmation about payment ,

16 agust i received a message that charge the amount from my card , i called the bank and the guy said the lenovo just macam confirm my order and charge the amount.

but 24 august i checked my status become on hold due credit issue , when i called to bank , the bank said it cancel on 16 too without any notification , ask me check back with lenovo.

after that i call to lenovo , they said that's between the finacial department and the bank , they help me to check and solve the problem.

OK , 25 august i received the message that the bank charge me again with the same amount , i called back to bank and this time they confirmed this amount already paid to lenovo.

on the next day 26 august , i checked again my order status the expect ship date become BLANK like what i post before but before the credit issue case my ship date is on september 24 , i email back to lenovo and they replied me all is in good order and ask me check the status order again.

Today morning , i checked again my status , my date place to november 30 instead september 24 , what a nice fxxking service...playing me for a fool.

Seems like a lot of hassle for just some online ordering process.

It is so much easier and faster if do it on shoppee and lazada.

But lenovo legion 5 hd screen non pro, 3060 cheapest i can get is 6000 from shoppee.

6500 is really a steal for legion 5 pro. 3070 somemore.

6200 , 3070 mst have 20% voucher code.

Just a week ago , my mate bought it.
[attachmentid=10960943]
Legion 5 non pro
5800H
16gb RAM
RTX3060
1TB SSD
FHD 165hz screen
2 years onsite warranty.

The only complains i see is the Realtek Wifi adaptor instead of the advertised Intel AX200. And the slow 1R X16 RAM. Only 4 RAM chips per 8GB memory module.

I added several of this into my cart. It just keep becoming unavailable. Sold out after a few days.
Most of the shop just carry 1-2 units.
Was waiting for my credit card promo code. Hoping to get another rm100 discount..

If the price is cheap in shopee/lazada, no one will go through the hassle

Yeah same for Lazada and shoppee, if you wanna have a bargain gotta wait for 88, 99 or voucher, or some launching event.

Lenovo website without voucher code is not that attractive also.

Is it only good for those people looking for 2nd computer, rather than need to use it immediately.

4 weeks or few months of waiting time is ridiculous..

I can get a kitchen stove ship from China and deliver to my doorstep less than 7 days and zero shipping fees .

u have to know they dun build ur laptop only, the demand is crazy high, plus factors like shortages, logistics etc all played a role in the delays

no one should buy from lenovo site if they need a laptop immediately

the prices without coupon are marked up fyi
*
Been always a Dell supporter. Dell similar spec is like 30% higher. Alienware maybe double the price.

Shortage is the reason why I grab it now, for lower end laptop shouldn't be any problem. But for those equip with mid range GPU it is gonna be very difficult to get one. Hopefully will be better next year.

Those marked up price still very attractive if compare to brick and mortar shop. Similar pricing maybe can land me a 1650Ti only at lowyat for walk in customer.

I checked some ThinkPad actually have ready stock and can ship within a week, those are really good bargain.. just pay a little more attention on the keyboard layout, some swap the position of function and control, that is really annoying..

they said the shortage will last until 2023...

about the Fn and Ctrl, u can swap the function in bios

Damn I din't know it all along. Should have just Google it.

Thought it cannot be changed..

Thanks man. You save my day.

Saw a news people lining out in front of best buy to get 3070-3090, is really a difficult year for gamer.
Have to pay double for PS5, double for GPU.
.
Gaming laptop used to be something unwise, but now compare to desktop it is not a bad idea.

At least can get a GPU.

GPU a bit con job also though, it's effectively 1 gen behind the desktop 'same model' GPU. 3060 to 2060 etc. Too much power requirement di.
*
Same thing goes to CPU, don think laptop perform as good as desktop. Maybe 1 or 2 generation behind. Or i3 desktop is as good as laptop i7..

Before crptomining, desktop was the best option for budget, miner just make those option unavailable now.

Even you have the money still cannot get yourself a new GPU.

Hi sifus!

Looking at the IdeaPad Slim 5 Pro (AMD) @ RM3,429:

AMD Ryzen™ 5 5600U Processor
8 GB DDR4 3200MHz
512 GB M.2 2242 SSD
14.0'' 2.2K (2240 x 1400), IPS, up to 60 Hz, 100% sRGB, and 300 nits
Integrated Graphics

Is it a good purchase for its specs? Or i5 version at RM110 extra is better?

Mainly using as entertainment device, occasional Office apps, web browsing etc. Not a gamer. smile.gif

Is there any promo code available?
*
can chat with CS, or try this code

LENXHSBC (credit to melon)
or
LENXCIMB

Some people claim they have 25% code, great if you can have it, but dun pay to get promo code

cs kept saying IT is working on it.....bloody hell  bangwall.gif  bangwall.gif

sorry, i can only grumble here....no point throwing at cs  cry.gif

The CS is in India, all they can do is checking the system, it seems like all the order are processed in Singapore and ship from ShenZhen.

Very frustrating that money has paid but no record on the system.

u must have not read the history....2 months is for your shipment, mine is just for the order to be found in OVP!

Guess they realized the mistake and redo the order manually.

If just leave it like that, month end when they realize their issue (month end closing) they might just refund the money to you or perform the nessasary action.

Funny is some people think that waiting for 2 months without any order details sound very cool, and keep mocking first time buying laptop.

Saw few units left on the legion 5 pro 3070…I guess there will be more stocks coming up…

Not sure people cancel the order or what.
Maybe they get better deal elsewhere, and ready stock.

Will see my unit will come in 4 weeks estimated time

When did you order ? Yours are customize ore prebuilt…

Prebuild 3070 , can get in 4 weeks time,

Ordered mine on 27 Aug, just shipped today (9/9) from ShenZhen.

Got the mouse and backpack on 6th September, can get it on 4th, but UPS not deliver during weekend.

For those who need a quick device can look for ready stock, I saw one unit Legion 7 is ready stock with 2070 GPU.

My previous order directly from china. But this unit just from sg needs to travel a bit more far to justify the shipping expense perhaps. Anyway… it arrived malaysia today… probably will get it this week.

UPS logistic full of unnecessary route and rigid compare to other logistic company.

From point A to point B, 2 nodes, they able to make it become 10 nodes.

And the operating cost still higher than others.
