    Today we are covering more of the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 by demoing the Smatree 16” Hard Shell EVA Laptop Sleeve Case!
    Overall, there are some nice features built into this Smatree unit and the advertisement states it’s also compatible with Gen 8 units both 5i and 7i!
    Now keep in mind, this is for 16” laptops.
    The goal of this content is to help you get more out of your devices and improve your day-to-day efficiency with technology and I’m hoping to do this by providing information you can’t find anywhere else, because I use products long term that I am actually interested in!
    Highlights/Key Features:
    ⚫Carry handle
    ⚫Hard shell EVA design laced with durable nylon
    ⚫Shock resistant padded layer
    ⚫YKK zippers
    ⚫Washable diamond pattern
    Drawbacks/Quirks:
    🔴Limited to low-power task due to possible airflow restrictions.
    As always, clarity and authenticity are important to the content. That being said, I did purchase this product myself and this means my interest was not influenced by free product or payment, leading to more authentic content.

    What is goin’ on everyone? Leon checkin’ in and we are at it again with more content!
    Today we are covering more of Samsung’s Galaxies devices and demonstrating how to improve battery performance with the feature “Deep Sleeping Apps”.
    The reason I wanted to look into this is because I’m still having a hard time choosing between the S Ultra series and the Z Fold
    Now, there are many reasons for this, but one huge con of the Z Fold is mediocre battery performance which was coming in at about 12hrs per charge, which the S Ultra series easily beats.
    Naturally, I thought, there has to be a way to fix this, and that’s where the feature “Deep Sleeping Apps” comes into play.

    What is goin’ on everyone? Leon checkin’ in and we are at it again with more content!
    Today we are covering more of Samsung’s Galaxy devices by demonstrating how to prevent accidental high data usage with “Allowed Networks For Apps”.
    Am I the only one who’s YouTube, TikTok or Instagram just to find I forgot to disable mobile data and blew through 3 or 4 gigs of data before my warning even shows?!
    I’ll say this feels like robbery if you are paying for that data at around $10/GB and it feels crippling if you’ve reached your limit for high speeds and now you are slowed down!
    So today we are going to help you keep more money in your pocket or simply help you manage your data better to keep your data speeds in the higher spectrum by covering this strategy in this live tutorial!
    The goal of this content is to help you get more out of your devices and improve your day-to-day efficiency with technology and I’m hoping to do this by providing information you can’t find anywhere else, because I use products long term that I am actually interested in!

    Today we are covering more of the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9, a AI-capable gaming laptop and there are so many topics to cover for this device, but I think it’s time to actually starting talking about the AI features, and what better place to start with Copilot AI shortcut key?!

Leon checkin’ in and we are at it again with more content!Today we are covering more of the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 AI-Capable Gaming Laptop by covering the camera privacy slider because… Well… It has one, right? And where the heck is it!? This caught me off guard giving noob status here. This is actually a video response to a few kind individuals who pointed out that the Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 does indeed have a camera slider after I incorrectly said there was not one in one of my other videos.So I think it’s only proper we give credit to @RuralLedge @ByteBallads & @ZacharyGuertin1008 for pointing this out so that we can provide the correct information and I also can admit my wrong doing which helps maintain the credibility of the channel by demonstrating my honesty.

    What is goin’ on everyone? Leon checkin’ in and we are at it again with more content!
    Today we are covering more of the 2024 Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 by discussing some of the highlights and key features I found interesting and wanted to share with all of you!
    Now there are things I’ve noticed either automatically or through tutorials that showed during my first few days of use and this content is more of an overview.
    That being said, we will be diving into these topics with more detail in future videos but keeping them simple for the moment..
    The goal of this content is to help you get more out of your devices and improve your day-to-day efficiency with technology and I’m hoping to do this by providing information you can’t find anywhere else, because I use products long term that I am actually interested in!
    Highlights/Key Features:
    ⚫Lenovo Legion Pro 7i (16”, 9) Virtual User Guide; a richer experience which also includes a virtual tour!
    ⚫Large display, thin bezels.
    ⚫Keyboard keys have rounded edges and a gamer-esque layout (i.e.: the directional keys are in a perfect location).
    ⚫Dedicated Copilot Key to emphasize the AI-theme.
    ⚫RGB & performance shortcuts are a plus!
    ⚫RGB base light bar; a cool Cyberpunk aesthetic!
    ⚫Ports; there are plenty and they are clearly labeled.
    Drawbacks/Quirks
    🔴Lid top notch: some may not mind it, others may.
    🔴No camera slider.
    🔴Off-center trackpad; some may not mind it, others may.
    As always, clarity and authenticity are important to the content. That being said, I did purchase this product myself and this means my interest was not influenced by free product or payment, leading to more authentic content.

    What is goin’ on everyone? Leon checkin’ in and we are at it again with more content!Today we are covering the 2024 Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 with an unboxing, which is the official start of the playlist for this product that will act as a catalog of videos that will help you make a purchasing choice about this hardware.There are two main reasons I wanted to move to this unit: 1st, although I have an HP Omen 16 that works very well and I can highly recommend, I was looking for a gaming PC with higher specs for not only gaming but for running AI software like Nvidia’s Chat with RTX which requires a minimum 16GB RAM. 2nd, I really am enjoying the Lenovo Legion Go, so I wanted to dive deeper into the Lenovo ecosystem. As always, clarity and authenticity are important to the content. That being said, I did purchase this product myself.

    What is goin’ on everyone? Leon checkin’ in and we are at it again with more content!
    Today we are reviewing the Fosmon Mini Bluetooth Keyboard With Trackpad! Yes. A mini keyboard, with a trackpad and some other nice little features.
    This also works very well with wearable displays for a mobile computing experience!
    HIGHLIGHTS:
    ⚫Portable keyboard with a modern appearance.
    ⚫Left and right top shoulder buttons act as left and right clicks.
    ⚫Trackpad works fairly well for its size.
    ⚫Fit’s in Lenovo Legion Glasses case.
    ⚫Battery charge has been very good.
    DRAWBACKS:
    🔴Overall plastic construction, giving a light & cheap feel.
    🔴Keyboard discouraging to work with due to lack of tactile feedback and space in between keys. This requires referencing of the actual keyboard for precise typing due to the fact that finding keys by feel alone is challenging.
    As always, clarity and authenticity are important to the content. That being said, I did purchase this product myself. This means my interest was not solely influenced by free product or payment, leading to more authentic content.
