Professional look, but gamer at heart. Lenovo wants to reshape its Legion series to appeal to a broader audience outside of just hardcore gamers. The Legion Y730 represents the first step in this new direction and it is subsequently the most balanced laptop in the family to date.
The Lenovo Legion Y730 series directly succeeds the Legion Y720 series. Unlike the Y720, however, the Y730 includes both 15-inch and 17-inch screen sizes for a wider range of options than its immediate predecessor. We recommend reading our review on the 15-inch Legion Y530 as it shares a similar aesthetic design to our 17-inch Legion Y730 that we have here today.
As of this writing, there are only two SKUs of the 17-inch Legion Y730 available distinguished by their processors. The first is equipped with a quad-core Core i5-8300H while the second uses a hexa-core i7-8750H. Otherwise, both have the same 1080 IPS matte display and GTX 1050 Ti GPU. Our review unit is the faster configuration retailing for about $1250 USD. As a mainstream gaming laptop from Lenovo, the system has a long line of direct 17-inch competitors including the MSI GP72, HP Omen 17, Dell G3 17, Acer Predator Helios 300, and the Asus ROG GL703GE.
