Gaming laptops in a thin body often suffer from two flaws – overheating and short battery life. What to do if you want high processor performance, but in a thin body, with good battery and at the same time not lose graphics performance when you are at home or at work? A gaming notebook with dedicated graphics card will always be heavier than an ultrabook and will not offer such battery life. On the other hand, ultrabooks lack CPU performance. The Legion Y740S resolves this dilemma.
Lenovo Vantage
Use the Lenovo Vantage application, previously known from ThinkPad devices, to control the settings. It received a new gaming theme for the needs of the Legion.
You can monitor the status of your computer and control various settings in the application. The main functions are switching the modes that we have already mentioned. You will also find tools for updating drivers, the ability to record macro keys or turn on fast charging.
You can adjust the camera, check the functionality of hardware, turn on WiFi protection, or read a number of tips for a better laptop experience.
Lenovo Migration Assistant is an interesting feature, which allows you to transfer data from your old device to your new one.
Lenovo Vantage is a simple and clear application where you will find everything you need to manage your laptop, for which I’m giving a thumbs up.
