How exactly do I get the price of 1149.99 at BestBuy? I clicked the highlighted link and it shows up for 1529.99 instead of the deal price.

"Why you can trust Tom's Hardware" it says in a box in the article.
I find that funny because the review is flawed, and thus hard to be trusted.
Let me explain:
Which cpu is tested in this article about the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 laptop?
Ryzen 7 7840HS or
Ryzen 9 7840HS or
Ryzen 9 7940HS

In the 2. paragraph it says:
"That is the case with the Lenovo Legion Slim 5, [...] ,an AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS processor"
Under the section "Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Specifications" it says:
CPU AMD Ryzen 9 7840HS
And then later on in the section"Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Configurations" it says:
"Our review unit is available as a Best Buy-exclusive [...] That price includes a Ryzen 9 7940HS processor"
However when you click the corresponding link to Best Buy, you'll be taken to a webpage where you can buy a Legion slim 5 with the Ryzen 7 7840HS cpu, not the Ryzen 9 7940HS.
The same goes when you look at Lenovo's site; it only have the Ryzen 5 and 7. There is no Legion slim 5 with a Ryzen 9.
So Brandon, you have been lying throughout the whole article, so I don¨t trust you.

Yeah I saw lots of typos. Even “Tom’s Verdict” lists wrong cpu. Not sure if anyone proofread before publishing or if it was written by AI 😉. Disappointing.

I own the laptop and the Bestbuy model is Ryzen 7 7840HS.
