We have paid close attention to this mid-tier monster of a gaming rig, even going hands-on with a similar model in our Lenovo Legion 5 review. Outside of the performance upgrades of the 2021 version, the design remains largely unchanged and the specs still hold up to even the most graphically intense games you can throw at it. The stylish chassis opens up to reveal a vivid 15.6-inch FHD display that runs at a buttery smooth 144Hz refresh rate. Keeping the visuals fluid is an Intel Core i7-9750H CPU and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 graphics with 6GB GDDR6. Multitasking is a cinch with 16GB of DDR4 RAM and your games load fast on the 512GB PCIe SSD. Pair this with a battery life of up to 5 hours (decent for a gaming laptop, but you’ll want to be near a plug outlet for long Halo sessions) and all the I/O needed to slot this into any desk setup, and you’re left with a seriously good gaming laptop that provides insane bang for your buck at this price point. But as we said up at the top of this, the introduction of RTX 30-series graphics means you’ll find lots of great offers in this category. Check out our best cheap gaming laptop deals hub for more!
