 Hello, this is Nick from Laptop Media and today we will show you how to open the 14-inch version of the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8. To open this laptop you have to undo 10 Philips head screws. Then pop the bottom panel from one of the top two corners and after that, pry the plate with a thin plastic tool starting from the back. Please remember, it would be of great help to us if you just hit the like button and subscribe to our channel. That would motivate us to make even more and better videos for you. There are two thermal pads on the inside of the metal bottom panel for cooling the SSDs. This device has a 73.6 watt hour battery pack. If you want to take it out, detach the connector from the motherboard and undo the four Philips head screws that are fixing the unit to the chassis. The battery lasts for 9 hours and 5 minutes of either web browsing or video playback. That's a good result considering the high-res OLED panel of our machine and the powerful hardware under the bonnet. To achieve that, you have to select the balanced preset and the Hybrid IGPU-only mode in the Lenovo Vantage app. The GPU overclock should be turned off. Also, you have to apply the switchable graphics mode in the BIOS and set the performance mode setting to default. The last step is to activate the balanced preset in the Windows power and battery menu. The memory is soldered. However, the maximum possible amount of 32GB of LPDDR5X, 6400 MHz RAM should be enough for most users. For storage, you get two M.2 slots compatible with Gen4 SSDs. The thermal system seems massive for such a device. It has a pair of fans, a thick heat pipe shared between the CPU and the GPU, and one more for each chip. The fourth pipe connects the two large metal cooling plates. We can also spot four heat sinks.
