Is there a better alternative?

At CES 2019, roughly 40 gaming laptops were announced with RTX-20 series graphics inside. The laptops come with similar specifications as the Legion Y740, so there are currently plenty of alternatives. Leading options include the Razer Blade, as well as the MSI GS75 Stealth.

  In a similar $2,400 price range, the 15-inch Razer Blade is an option that is thinner and lighter, but still packs in the gaming power of the RTX 2070 Max-Q. You’ll need to pay considerably more to go up to a 2080 Max-Q. The 17-inch MSI GS75 Stealth is a similar story. Both comes with slimmer bezels and are more portable than the Legion Y740. Meanwhile, a cheaper 15-inch version of the Legion Y740 is also available, with RTX-2070 Max-Q graphics.

  

Should you buy it?

Yes. With an RTX 2080 Max-Q graphics card, the performance on the Legion Y740 is there for big box gaming. Priced at $2,320 It is currently cheaper than the $3,300 Asus ROG Zephyrus S GX701 which has the same graphics card and similar base specs.
