The Lenovo LOQ 15, reviewed by Olhar Digital, presents itself as a gaming laptop focused on performance and screen quality, although it has limitations in portability and battery life.
Unlike other models available on the market, the Lenovo LOQ 15 adopts a more discreet design, using plastic finishing with straight lines. The connections are concentrated on the rear, which helps with cable organization and keeps the sides free for peripherals like mice.
The display is 15.6 inches, Full HD resolution, and IPS technology, ensuring consistent colors even at wide angles. With a refresh rate of 144 Hz, it provides smoother images, and the matte finish helps minimize ambient light reflections.
Internally, the device is equipped with the 13th generation Intel Core i5 processor from the HX line, designed to offer high processing power. Combined with 16 GB of DDR5 RAM, the laptop can run demanding games and software without constant interruptions.
The initial storage is a 512 GB SSD, which ensures fast booting of the operating system and programs. Although it is possible to replace the drive or add external HDDs to expand space, 512 GB is considered sufficient for daily use; the user should manage data if they plan to install many heavy games.
To run current titles, the model features the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 graphics card, which has 6 GB of memory. This GPU is classified as good quality, capable of running most modern games in Full HD with good quality, in addition to supporting 3D modeling and video editing tasks.
It should be noted that, although it may not achieve maximum graphical quality in all current games, the card is considered suitable for games expected in 2026, especially due to compatibility with Nvidia's DLSS 3 technology. This feature uses artificial intelligence to create intermediate frames, increasing visual fluidity in demanding games without excessively overloading the card or the processor.
In terms of connectivity, the Lenovo LOQ 15 offers three standard USB ports, an HDMI 2.1 output for external monitors, and an Ethernet port for wired internet connection. Additionally, there is a USB-C port that serves for charging, video output, and data transfer.
Wireless connections are guaranteed by Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 standards, providing interference-free communication and lower latency when using Bluetooth devices, such as headphones or mice.
The positive points of the Lenovo LOQ 15 include the 512 GB SSD space, which avoids the immediate need to purchase more storage, and the screen with color fidelity adequate for both gaming and editing. The HX line processor also contributes to the smooth execution of heavy tasks.
On the other hand, the weight of 2.38 kg and the size of the charger make daily transport less practical. Furthermore, the battery life is limited, requiring the device to remain plugged into the outlet during long gaming sessions or intensive use.
