When it comes to gaming laptops, Lenovo has surely amassed legions of followers. This is due to the craftsmanship and the high quality of laptops that they have produced, not just for gaming but for all different lifestyles as well.

Joining Lenovo’s impressive line up of gaming laptops is the latest generation of Legion 5i Pro. It boasts the latest 12th Generation Intel H-Series processors, Windows 11 and equally impressive NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series graphics performance. Plus, with Legion AI technology, it even automatically optimizes games. This for sure makes gaming feel true-to-life and more enjoyable.

The Legion 5i Pro’s design is simple and well refined. It is available in Storm Grey and Glacier White colorways. Both look stunning and are built to last long and withstand hours of gaming. 

This 16-inch gaming laptop has an aspect ratio of 16:10 and features up to a 240Hz variablerefresh rate. It also features 500-nits of brightness to make sure that you can see clearly what you are playing even in a brightly lit room. All of this work together with Dolby Vision for that stunning and perfect performance.

But, this laptop is not for gamers only. The Lenovo Legion 5i Pro is also built for content creators. One factor to consider is that the laptop’s WQXGA panel is calibrated from the factory with industry leading X-Rite Pantone Certification.

Armed with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card with 140W TGP, the 16-inch screen comes to life with realistic colors and images. This graphics card also has an internal AI that makes sure frames per second is boosted to perfection and prevents frame drops. 

Processing power of the Legion 5i Pro is also worth noting. With the powerful and newest 12th Gen Intel Core i7 H-Series, its performance is more efficient for all types of workloads you may require it to perform.    

Artificial Intelligence is well used within the Legion 5i Pro. It has an AI Engine built in that comprises hardware, software, firmware, and driver support that intelligently identifies when a game launches and optimizes the system’s performance to provide the highest frames-per-second or FPS. What makes the Legion AI Engine unique is that it can automatically detect the top AAA game titles and issue a custom-tuned profile offering 5-16% better FPS. Top AAA games include Call of Duty, Tomb Raider, Far Cry, Assassin's Creed and more. With that being said, gamers will surely enjoy the free 3 months of PCGame pass that Lenovo gives to every Legion 5i Pro buyer to jumpstart their gaming experience right away. 

Giving life to the Legion 5i Pro is an 80 watt-hour battery with a new Super Rapid Charge technology that charges the battery from 0% to 80% in just 30 minutes. And for people who are on-the-go, the Legion 5i Pro supports 135W power delivery charging via its type-C port. It also features the latest battery-sipping technology that challenges the notion that gaming laptops have poor battery life.

Beneath the Legion 5i Pro, is the Legion ColdFront 4.0 that creates a more thermally efficient, quieter and cooler machine while in use. The ColdFront 4.0 allows the Legion 5i Pro to maintain high levels of performance for long hours even with heavy gaming and workloads. Its two 12V fans with 40% thinner fan blades makes the Legion 5i Pro cool and pushes hot air out of the system. 

The Legion ColdFront 4.0 is also working in tandem with the Lenovo Q Control 4.0. This gives the user the freedom to choose to go from performance mode (high CPU voltage, high fan speeds), quiet mode (lower CPU voltage, lower fan speed, better battery), and balance mode (day to day automatic management).  This can be done by pressing Fn + Q. The power button lights up in different colors as well depending on the current thermal mode.

Also partnering its high quality graphics and screen is the Nahimic 3D audio. This can easily create a realistic and immersive audio experience that surely gamers and content creators will greatly appreciate. Nahimic also comes with a wide array of customizations to further augment audio features. 

Controlling games is also a breeze with its Legion TrueStrike Gaming Keyboard. The keys are coated with an anti-abrasion finish to reduce wear and improve longevity. This gives the keyboard abrasion life an additional 100% as compared to previous generations. Apart from having RGB backlighting, the keys are also nicely spaced making key travel faster. The Track pad is also larger for better ergonomics while playing and or during heavy workloads.

All of these features work hand in hand to deliver a superb laptop be it for gaming, content creation and even for just writing. With handy features such as the Legion ColdFront 4.0, the Lenovo Legion5i Pro will be with you from start to finish of your game or your project. Plus, the Legion 5i Pro also cares about the user’s security as it also features an electronic shutter to its HD web camera when not in use. This super computer is really a device that can keep up with whatever crazy idea you have.

To top it all off, Lenovo offers a 3-year Legion Ultimate Support with 3-year Accidental Damage protection. This gives you 24/7 access to Lenovo expert technicians, by phone, chat or email, and gives you guidance on hardware optimization, software assistance, and even in-game settings of some popular AAA game titles. This is the perk users need to keep their PC at 100% performance, 100% of the time. Plus, the Accidental Damage protection gives you peace of mind that if ever you have accidental damage, you will have top of the line repair service at no e cost for 3 years. Lenovo’s Premium Care warranty also Annual PC Health Check that allows technicians to spot issue before you, quickly resolve to avoid PC problems.
