A Lenovo LOQ gaming laptop featuring an Intel Core i7-13650HX CPU, an Nvidia RTX 4060 GPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD is currently available for AU$1,879 on Amazon Australia, a significant reduction from its original price of AU$2,599. This deal represents a considerable saving for those seeking a capable gaming machine.
The laptop boasts a 1080p display with a 144Hz refresh rate, which is well-suited for the included GPU. While the RTX 4060 is not the highest-end option, it is capable of handling recent AAA titles at 1080p or 1440p resolutions. The 16GB of RAM is considered adequate for modern gaming, and the 1TB SSD offers ample storage space, surpassing the 512GB configurations often found at this price point.
In a previous review of an AMD variant of the Lenovo LOQ 15 Gen10, it received a score of 81/100. The reviewer noted the laptop's ability to run games at native resolution without significant compromises on graphics settings, stating, "It's so refreshing to be able to just game at your native resolution on a laptop at this price point, without having to worry about dialling the graphics preset down, or swapping around resolutions and getting stretched pixels or worse."
The next closest offer comes from JB Hi-Fi at AU$1,899, with Amazon's price being AU$20 cheaper for Prime members. Other retailers are offering lower-specced models for a similar or higher price. This current deal positions the Lenovo LOQ as a compelling option for entry-level gaming or as a general-purpose laptop at a competitive price.
