One of the weakest RTX 3070 laptops, the thermals are poor due to its slimness, it's an 85W card and the CPU is quad-core only despite carrying the i7 name. I would advise against this and honestly, better off getting an RTX 3060 with higher wattage like the Legion 5 at 130-140W. I paid this price for this from Cash Converters end of last year and quickly sold it on.

80 watts + 25 watts of Dynamic Boost - so bear that in mind compared to full-fat 130w from Lenovo. But reflected in price, I'd say.

This is cold. 4 cores .... Massive thermal throttle+ low power GPU

I'd buy this if I was shopping from CEX in the same price range: uk.webuy.com/pro…=32
The 3060 has full wattage headroom and a much better CPU too.

Ah, used gaming laptops. Almost always with nearly dead batteries. Hard pass. People who chose to mostly game on laptops tend to be tech users, who are semi-tech literate and who don't look after their hardware (or know how to), especially if they are then selling it on cex. (edited)

I wouldn't say that holds true in all cases. I purchase laptops from Cex for resale and I've come across plenty that are near new.
Some have less than 100 charge cycles on them, which is almost no use at all and cosmetic condition is also very good with little to no damage
That's not always the case but it's frequent enough, if the condition Is bad or the item is heavily used you've got 21 days free returns, so there's really no risk.

Does anyone know if this has usb type c charging? Can't find the exact specification anywhere

Do you mean can it be powered/charged over USB C? If it can, it will be limited as it needs more than 100W.

Honestly not very good, wouldn’t pay £500 for this…
