There is a global silicon shortage...

With the global shortage of graphics cards, my daughter expected a £2.5k price tag, therefore it is a good deal.

Out of stock anyway

Yes it is now. Clearly didn't have many like most places.

Lenovo are not selling this through their own website yet. Currys are charging £2399.99 for this model. Executive club members may also be able to get 2% rebate on this.

Costco also have a model with a Ryzen 7/RTX 3060/512 GB SSD for £1,429.99.

I suspect demand will be high for these models. The 5 Pro is impossible to find. I have ordered a 5 Pro myself directly from Lenovo but not shipping until August.

Its double the cost I paid for my 5 Pro with a 5800 and 3070... Performance is what, maybe 15-20% more?
Really bad value for money when compared.

Yes, I know... Graphics cards and consoles among other things are very affected by this. But as seen on this website laptops are not one of the items that are effected to the same extent.

Just look at the history of Lenovo Legion laptops that get posted on here! There are about 5 every week with RTX 30 series cards and that's just Lenovo laptops!

The deal is cold. It`s not a good deal when there are better value options available. (edited)

I've been trying to get one of these for weeks. No joy. I'm beginning to doubt any of them had any stock to begin with,

Or had 1 each.

Global semiconductor shortage is causing so many problems.

I was thinking about spending the extra over the 5 Pro for this but thought about it for too long.

If I'm lucky 5 Pro will arrive for Christmas.

Was this actually available or just the listing went up?

It did say it was in stock when I first found it.

Its a choice to make whether you want the best value for money, or fastest gaming FPS.
No wrong whilst ‘value’ is hard to define when upgrading laptops for thousands of pounds, just because the game looks slightly better or faster than one fractions of the price. .:) (edited)
