Model: L5i Pro 16IAH7H
Describe the issue: Trying to change the product name to "Legion 5i pro 16IAH7H" from "Legion 5 Pro-161AH7H", but introduced with "SMI not Detected"
What have you tried already?: nothing at the moment as I do not want to break my machine since it has no warranty
When did it start producing the issue: ever since i got the laptop about 3 weeks ago, I just realized it as LLT says my device is not tested before.
Did you install new drivers or software?: Nope
Can you provide images/videos to show us the issue: yeah
