Test: Lenovo Legion Y520 15IKBN (7700HQ, FHD, GTX 1050 Ti) (sammanfattning)

Name: Lenovo Legion Y520-15IKBN-80WK001KUS
Brand: Lenovo

Återhållsam, men kapabel. Lenovos senaste bärbara speldator i budgetklassen har kanske inte samma dragningskraft som Legion Y720, men den presterar ändå förhållandevis bra – trots en jämförelsevis tilltalande prislapp.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
36 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 23.6 ms rise
36 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 12.4 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 93 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (21 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
58.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 33.6 ms rise
58.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 25.2 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 95 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (32.9 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM detected

21550 Hz

≤ 99 % brightness setting

The display backlight flickers at 21550 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 99 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 21550 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8774 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

In review: Lenovo Legion Y520-15IKBN-80WK001KUS. Test model provided by Lenovo US

Läs originaltestet i sin helhet på engelska här.

Lenovo Legion Y520 är ett bra val för budgetmedvetna gamers. Den har godkänd CPU- och GPU-prestanda, bra inmatningsenheter och kan underhållas/uppgraderas relativt enkelt. Att designen har underordnats funktionaliteten kan man kanske ha överseende med eftersom priset är jämförelsevis lågt.

Nvidia-kretsen GTX 1050 Ti kan inte mäta sig med GTX 1070/1080-kretsarna som används i dyrare modeller, men grafikkortet klarar de flesta spel i 1080p med höga inställningar och respektabel framerate. Datorn får heller inga värmerelaterade problem under tung belastning. Den Y520-konfiguration vi testar här är också utrustad med en extremt snabb NVMe-SSD på 256 GB, som kompletterats med en mekanisk hårddisk på 2 TB.

Den största nackdelen med datorn är bristen på GPU-uppgraderingsalternativ, men det är knappast någon överraskning eftersom Y720 är nästa logiska kliv upp.

Ett annat minus är designen – här finns inga styva metallytor eller RGB-belysning, utan bara plast i olika färger. Slutligen är skärmen en besvikelse, då den saknar både ljusstyrka och färgmättnad.

För några extra tusenlappar kan Y720 vara ett mer tilltalande alternativ (beroende på budget). Och andra maskiner som Dell Inspiron 15 7567 kan också vara värda en titt. Men i budgetklassen lyckas Y520 tillräckligt bra. Den är snabb, pålitlig och inte minst betydligt billigare än många konkurrenter.
