Description:
Lenovo has up to 25% off these Legion 5 models with OLED displays

FULL STORY ======================================================================

If you're on the lookout for a brand new gaming laptop, there are a couple of fantastic choices at the official Lenovo Store thanks to an ongoing flash sale.

The first is this Lenovo Legion 5 with an RTX 5060 for $1,099.99 (was $1,419) , a compelling mid-range choice if you're not looking to completely break the bank. At over $1,000, it's a little pricey for a machine with an RTX 5060,
but this particular model comes with an up-to-date Ryzen 7 chipset and stunning 1600p OLED display. That's something that's still incredibly rare to see on a machine at this price point and a major selling point.

If you're looking to make the most out of that premium display, then I'd also consider this Lenovo Legion 5i Pro for $1,649 (was $2,224) . You're getting a huge 25% discount here on a higher-end configuration with an RTX 5070 - a
much beefier graphics card that's perfect for 1600p gaming. Annoyingly, this machine only features 16GB of RAM, which feels a little stingy when you're paying well over $1,500.

Still, that's an easy (and cheap) upgrade that you can either install
yourself or alter using the provided configurator at Lenovo. The main selling point here is definitely the OLED display, too - something that especially impressed our sister site GamesRadar when they reviewed the latest Legion 5 last month.

Both these machines are fine choices right now if you want something a little higher-end than the usual cheap gaming laptop fare. Considering they should both last a few good years, they're also decent if you're lining up a potential upgrade to Windows 11 now that Windows 10 is no longer officially supported .

This Lenovo Legion 5 melds a solid, well-thought-out design with decent specs and a gorgeous OLED display. It's arguably a little pricey for a machine with a mid-range RTX 5060 graphics card, but cheaper options simply can't beat
this models' quality display and hardware. Under the hood, a combination of a Ryzen 7 chipset and RTX 5060 means you'll have no issues running even the
most demanding titles at 1080p. View Deal

Another incredible gaming laptop at the official Lenovo Store this week, this Legion Pro 5i features a super-speedy RTX 5070 under the hood. That makes it
a fantastic choice if you're looking to play all the latest games at higher resolutions. While it would have been nice to have seen a full 32GB of RAM on this configuration, that's an easy upgrade, and you're still getting that stunning 1600p OLED display as a highlight feature.
