Deal | Full-power RTX 5070, 165 Hz OLED: Lenovo Legion 5 15 gaming laptop is now $450 cheaper than list price

The Gen 10 Lenovo Legion 5 15 gaming laptop with an Intel Core i9-14900HX CPU, a full-power RTX 5070 laptop GPU, 16 GB of replaceable RAM, and 1 TB of storage is now on sale at Walmart at an amazing discount. The machine is a standout mid-range gaming notebook, as it brings plenty of performance in an relatively easy to carry design.

The Lenovo Legion 5 15 is an exceptional offering when it comes to middle-range gaming laptops, which are careful in creating a balance of performance, usability, and cost. In our review, we have named AMD Ryzen and RTX 5060 Legion 5 15 as the best mainstream gamer and have also lamented the Intel Raptor Lake and RTX 5070-based version. Therefore, be it a desire to have a 1080p gamer or QHD gamer laptop, the Legion 5 15 is certainly a laptop worth considering.

This suggestion is supported by the fact that the Legion 5 15 quite frequently has a sale. At this moment, Walmart is selling the Core i9-14900HX and the RTX 5070 equipped Legion 5i Gen 10 at merely $1,399, a discounted amount of 450.99 more than the retail price of 1849.99.

Besides the above, in the Lenovo Legion 5i 15 15IRX10 (Gen 10), the RAM is 16 GB, storage is 1 TB, the display is 15-inch and 1600p with OLED technology, 24-zone RGB keyboard, and has a large battery with 80 Wh. The port condition is also quite fine with plenty of Type-C and Type-A connectors and others.

In our review of the Legion 5i 15 15IRX10 with an RTX 5070 and a significantly slower Core i7-13650HX, we said that the laptop was an excellent gaming laptop all the way through. The Legion 5 15 SKU on sale is even a better gaming laptop now that it comes with a flagship Core i9-14900HX that has 16% higher performance on single core and 51% higher on multiple cores than in our review unit, the Core i7-13650HX.

Therefore, be it the play at FHD to achieve maximum FPS or play at QD to experience the best image quality, the Legion 5i 15 Gen 10 will perform the task quite well.

Furthermore, its 15.1 inch OLED display will also improve your gaming and media viewing experiences with virtually infinite contrast, 100 percent DCI-P3 color space, 500 nits of SDR brightness, and a 165 Hz refresh rate. It also has an Nvidia G-Sync and does not need user calibration by the panel.

We have only the following actual grievances against the Legion 5 15 (Gen 10 Intel): fans can be too noisesome, no USB 4/Thunderbolt 4 and no SD card reader. The latter one is rather simple to repair, because you can purchase a simple USB-C dongle on Amazon at a low price.

Despite these few flaws, the Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 10 that is on sale at 1,399 dollars is a great bargain, because you are getting a fast performance, a healthy upgrading potential, and an excellent OLED display.
