The Lenovo Legion Go handheld series is not alone in the gaming rig refresher revealed at CES 2025; the Lenovo Legion gaming laptops have been updated too. The newly redesigned Legion Pro 7i, Legion Pro 5i, and Legion Pro 5 lead the charge for competitive gamers, but let’s not forget their lightweight yet powerful siblings, the Legion 5i and Legion 5. As if those models aren’t confusing enough, there is also a 7i. Here’s how Lenovo is leveling up its lineup.
Lenovo Legion Pro 7i (16”, 10): The Powerhouse Commander
At the top of the food chain, the Legion Pro 7i is the ultimate choice for gamers chasing leaderboard glory. Armed with up to Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs, this beast delivers up to 250W TDP via Coldfront Vapor cooling. The 16-inch WQXGA OLED display, boasting a 240Hz refresh rate and sub-0.5ms latency, ensures buttery-smooth gameplay and visuals sharper than your reflexes. Add in customizable per-key RGB lighting, and this machine becomes both a weapon and a showpiece.
Lenovo Legion Pro 5i and Pro 5 (16”, 10): The Dynamic Duo
For gamers seeking slightly less over-the-top but still top-tier performance, the Legion Pro 5i (Intel) and Pro 5 (AMD) step in. These machines pack the same 16-inch PureSight OLED display with 240Hz refresh and Coldfront Hyper cooling tech, keeping things frosty with up to 200W TDP. Both models feature customizable 24-zone RGB lighting and performance that’s more than enough to slay AAA titles.
Lenovo Legion 5i and Legion 5 (15”, 10): Lightweight Yet Loaded
For gamers who want a thinner, lighter laptop without compromising on power, the Legion 5i (Intel) and Legion 5 (AMD) deliver. With a new 15-inch footprint, these laptops feature up to Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX or AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 processors, paired with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPUs. The 15.3-inch WQXGA display offers a 165Hz refresh rate and 100% DCI-P3 coverage, striking a balance between portability and performance.
Thanks to Coldfront Hyper cooling and up to 13% lighter designs, these laptops slide easily into backpacks while staying cool under pressure. Whether you’re gaming in the library or rendering in a café, the Legion 5 series keeps up without breaking a sweat—or your back.
For STEM Gamers: Lenovo Legion 7i (16”, 10)
Not to be left out, the Legion 7i caters to STEM students juggling coursework and gaming.

It’s lighter, quieter, and ready to go from the dorm room to the lab without missing a beat.
