The older Lenovo Legion 5 Pro with a Ryzen 5000 series CPU and RTX 3000 series GPU was regarded as one of the best gaming laptops that money could buy. Here, we are here to provide details on a model that performs even better. The updated version features a Ryzen 9 6900HX processor, which features eight cores and 16 threads, along with an 8GB GDDR6 RTX 3070 Ti GPU that can operate at up to a 140W power limit.
As for the price, it is going for $1,569.99 on Amazon, making it one of the best-priced gaming laptops sporting an RTX 3070 Ti. In terms of performance, the Legion 5 Pro will outclass competitors running an RTX 3080 GPU at a lower power limit, making this machine thoroughly impressive from a performance perspective. It also flaunts one of the best build qualities for a notebook of this class, thanks to its aluminum chassis. In short, this product will last you for years, but remember that extensive care also goes a long way in prolonging its longevity.
The IPS display has a stunning 16:10 aspect ratio, with a 2560 x 1600 resolution and a refresh rate that goes up to 165Hz. The extra vertical screen real estate granted by the 16-inch panel will help you in productivity-related tasks. There are a multitude of ports, and if you want to get that extra bit of performance, there is also a MUX switch to disable the integrated AMD Radeon graphics.
The battery is a somewhat decent 80Whr, with Lenovo claiming that users can get nearly 10 hours on a single charge, but keep in mind that your mileage will vary significantly. This model ships with a 1TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD, along with 16GB of DDR5 RAM. Both the RAM and storage can be upgraded in the future, and the back panel can easily be removed to facilitate this process. At $1,569.99, it is not cheap, but where else will you get a high-powered CPU and GPU combo, and that too from a reputable brand like Lenovo?
