Ultimate Performance. Uncompromised Battery Life.
They say life is full of compromises. They say you can’t have high performance and long battery life on the same notebook. The Legion 5 features an RTX 3050 Graphics card with a max TGP of 95W as well as a Ryzen 7 mobile processor, while also boasting a battery with a great capacity to handle almost every performance task is thrown at it. Never compromise on your gaming laptop again.
Immersive Visuals. Fast Refresh
Whether you’re favoring blindingly fast refresh rates and response times on your gaming panel or hyper-realistic visuals, the Legion 5 has you covered. Deepen your immersion in FHD Dolby Vision display and 300nits Brightness, 100% sRGB with 85% AAR with improved color accuracy on the 15.6″ widescreen display, or enhance your competitive edge with blistering refresh speeds of up to 165Hz with 3ms response times via Overdrive support. The Legion 5 also features Free-Sync and G-Sync for stutter-free gaming.
AI-Assisted Gaming
The Lenovo Legion AI engine breaks new barriers in gaming. It optimizes performance automatically to any of the Top 16 AAA games you’re playing with auto-detection, dynamically allocating CPU and GPU usage accordingly to get up to 15% higher FPS. Now every game will be optimized, and frame rates will be maximized.
Display of Lenovo Legion 5 2021
The FHD screen on this model is really good. It’s 1920×1080 px in resolution, IPS, 165Hz with a matte finish. The viewing angles are solid and I detected no backlight bleed on my panel. There’s very little to complain about, especially considering this is an entry-level gaming laptop.
Hardware and performance
It’s an octa-core processor which has a base clock of 3.2Ghz and boosts at 4.4Ghz. If you’re planning on using this for school or even professional use, this should be plenty of computing power for most tasks.
