If frontliner disappears, we still might be able to save a little as compared to retailers, but might not be worth it due to the long shipping.

discount code STUDENT is the next best and should stay there forever, since they created a lenovo student account system, thought only for students and lesser discount.

Basically its a trade off, either get the discount with long shipping or get from retailer no need to wait

Hi guys,

I heard human eyes can not see the different between 60hz and 144hz.
Won't it be waste if you got the 144hz screen?
Thank you.

I think this question is discussed here multiple times previously.

Look up linus tech tips on youtube, there is a noticable difference between 60hz and 144hz to our human eye especially if you are playing fast paced games like fps.
Only when you use 144hz physically then you can feel the difference.
I personally felt a difference with my legion 5 144hz as compared to my ideapad 60hz display

That's what scientists think but the refresh rate is not our eyes.

It's the number of times the screen is refreshing new digital data to display

Check out the above youtube video done by LTT

And you decide yourself whether do you need 240hz or 300hz screen

For me.... My WFH 24" screen is only 60hz cuz I am using it for work only

I suggest you wait for black fri to see if the web base price is lower.

If not, its ok. Use iprice30 (if there is). If not then just use frontliner. The difference is around 100+

Yes but Rams from 20 years ago weren't exactly in the GB size that is needed for satisfactory Win 10 usage. From anecdotal evidence, one needs at least 8GB of rams for a satisfying Win 10 user experience and as far as I can recall, 4GB Sodimms weren't exactly in mass usage till around 10 years ago so looking for those from 20 years back? And laptops from 20 years back, you might only have an IDE connection. I suppose you can try to use a Sata to IDE converter but what would then be the use of switching in an SSD?

It got reduced from October 30 onwards, the discount changed from 30% to 10%. Personally I feel its a never ending waiting game, who knows, FRONTLINER might stop working and we don't get any discounts for the rest of the year.
oh? iprice was 30% off sale price? i see it as 10% of sale price now, or 30% off web price.

frontliner is 30% off web price.

If the code is a further 20- 30% discount after discounted price, that is super. No need to wait too long liao

In US. Lenovo legion 15 AMD (17 inch) version is OOS until further notice

Wonder when that will come to Sing

What was the discount percentage for IPRICE30?
Am playing around discount codes for my Thinkpad purchase during 11.11, it seems that Lenovo has fixed discount percentage 10% for ThinkPad across most codes.

Some codes with higher discount amount, the base price was changed to higher once the code entered. After discount price are same.
