An OLED gaming laptop, let alone one with the best GPU on the market, on sale for just over $3,000 is an absolute steal given the current market conditions, especially when its competitors with similar spec sheets are typically sold for several hundred dollars more. This is the ultimate deal for someone who needs a top spec rig for gaming and productivity on-the-go.
This super-powerful gaming laptop packs the world's most powerful gaming GPU. Inside the Legion Pro 7i is Nvidia's RTX 5090 GPU with 24GB of GDDR7 VRAM, a 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, a 1TB SSD, and WiFi 7. Games will look and play great on the 16-inch 2560 x 1600 pixel WQXGA OLED screen with blistering 240Hz refresh rate.
The RTX 5090 with its 32GB GDDR7 VRAM is the eyeline-grabbing kit in this Lenovo Legion Pro 7i laptop, but its packed spec sheet also includes a 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, a 16-inch 1600p OLED screen with a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 1TB SSD. You've also got plenty of USBs and a 2.5G Ethernet port to wire yourself in with, too.
We've not reviewed this exact spec, but we did put its RTX 5080 sibling through its paces in our Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 10 review last year. It scored highly, thanks to the build quality and design, along with its overall performance. The OLED display, in particular, saw praise, with vibrant colors, brilliant brightness, and sharp details, as the benchmark graphs below show. Its s aluminum chassis gave the Legion Pro 7i a luxurious feel (which isn't always a given, even on a premium spec laptop), too.
The RTX 5090 mobile GPU used here isn't exactly as powerful as the juggernaut desktop alternative. There are power constraints to think about on mobile, but that doesn't mean you're losing out, as the RTX 5090 mobile GPU is still formidable in its own right. It has 10,496 CUDA cores, along with 24GB of GDDR7 VRAM and a 256-bit memory bus.
With the 16" OLED display supporting a max resolution of 2,600 x 1,600, along with a fast 240 Hz refresh rate, you'll be able to handle 1600p with ease using this GPU. Maxing out your graphics settings won't be a problem, with the added DLSS 4 support provided by this current-gen Nvidia Blackwell GPU ensuring longevity for years to come, especially with multi-frame generation at your disposal as a quick and easy way to boost your frame rates in the future.
This rig also comes with an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, giving you 24 cores to play with, split across eight performance cores (which are best used for gaming) and 16 efficient cores (which are good for any multi-threaded work you do). The build also comes with 32GB of DDR5 RAM, which is about standard for a high-spec laptop, with a big 2TB SSD providing enough space for a healthy games collection, or plenty of photos and documents.
The same specs as the model above, but with the RTX 5090 swapped out for an RTX 5080, saving you a bit of cash if you don't need the world's best laptop GPU in your rig.
There's an awesome deal on the RTX 5080 version, which we did review, too. That spec and build is exactly the same as the one shown here, but it's on sale for $2,499 right now , saving you a cool $1,000 in the process. Not a bad alternative, with the RTX 5080 still an exceptionally powerful option for gaming at the display's native 1600p resolution.
The $3,049 sale price for this Lenovo Legion Pro 7i gaming laptop is as good as it gets right now if you're looking for a top-spec laptop that can play any game you can throw at it. The RTX 5080 alternative for $2,499 isn't a bad alternative, though. Either way, we'll expect to see these deals sell out quickly, so get your order in before they do.
