Lenovo Legion Pro 5i

“Okay. We got: [$1,999]+ - Legion 7a - Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 (4C+8C/24T, Zen4c, 890M 16CU) - Legion 7a - Ryzen AI 9 465 (4C+6C/20T, Zen4c, 880M 12CU) [$1,499]+ - Legion 5a - Ryzen AI 465 - Legion 5i - Intel Core Ultra 9 386H [$1,299]+ - Legion 5a - Ryzen AI 250 (8C/16T, Zen 4, 780M 12CU) (It's a 8840U/7840U) [$1,149]+ - Legion LOQ - Intel 356H / Ryzen 7 250 (Up to processors, expect lower variants at base price). That's great, at least not counting pricing. Now, the bad: > Our sources tell that the Legion 7a would have **up to Ryzen AI 9 HX 470** and **up to NVIDIA GeForce 5060 Laptop GPU with 8GB VRAM** and a total TDP of 125W. [...] The Lenovo Legion 5a GPU will be the same, up to NVIDIA RTX 5060. [...] Both the Lenovo LOQ 15AHP11 and Lenovo LOQ 15IPH11 will feature NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50-series Laptop GPUs. In other words, these refresh won't get super-high end gaming, kind of a bummer considering the 5070 Ti exist, but we can blame RAM shortage. Who knows if Lenovo didn't see good numbers offering 5070/5080/5090 with good margins. > Lenovo Legion 7a to start from $1,999. [...] Legion 5a will start at $1,499 USD. [...] The LOQ 15AHP11 will start at a price of $ 1,149 USD That's outrageous. For that price you can get now an RTX 5070 Ti/RTX 5080 with an Intel 275HX or higher. I can bet these will come with 16GB as basis. The time to buy is NOW. I don't see this refresh will be cheap. Who knows what strings pull Lenovo, but don't see April 2026 with good options. Are they enticing players with a good CPU and iGPU to compensate the future awful prices?”
