The cheapest Legion 5 available costs $1,049.99, but we wouldn’t recommend getting the bottom-dollar model. There are also the Legion 5i Pro models and Legion 5 models of both (which use AMD Ryzen CPUs note the lack of ‘i’ denoting ‘Intel’). The highest-spec model - which packs double the RAM and an RTX 3070 Ti GPU - costs $2,499.99 - not quite as much bang for your buck, in our opinion. For our money, the 1080p RTX 3060 model available in the US is a massively better value since it’s only marginally more expensive at $1,229.99. The Lenovo Legion 5i starts at $1,099.99 in the US, which gets you essentially the same system as the one we’ve reviewed here, but with a 1080p display and an RTX 3050 Ti instead of an RTX 3060. Lenovo Legion 5i (2022) review: Price and availability Ultimately though, this isn’t a laptop for on-the-go gaming it’s a desktop replacement system, and it does that just fantastically. It’s a bit on the heavy side, and the battery life is unsurprisingly garbage, two pitfalls that almost every gaming laptop trips into.
The DDR5 memory is a great added bonus (especially since a lot of more affordable gaming laptops are still rocking DDR4, and it’s not a mandatory upgrade for the 12th-gen Intel CPU), and we were surprised to see not just regular USB-C ports but also a Thunderbolt 4 port. Lenovo hasn’t skimped on the features here either, with a solid selection of physical ports and the latest Wi-Fi 6E capabilities.
