Lenovo has opened up preorders for its highly anticipated Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 10 gaming laptop, set to redefine gaming standards in 2025. This cutting-edge device is packed with the latest technology, featuring a powerful Intel processor and Nvidia graphics card, a stunning high-resolution OLED display, and ample RAM and SSD storage right out of the box. Although still listed as a preorder, shipments have begun, with delivery expected as early as late April.

The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i boasts a 16" 2560x1600 240Hz OLED display, an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU, and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 GPU. It's equipped with 32GB of DDR5-6400MHz RAM and 2TB of SSD storage (2x1TB). The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX significantly outpaces the Core Ultra 9 185H found in previous flagship laptops, which was more focused on energy efficiency and not a direct successor to the i9-14900HX. This new processor perfectly complements the GeForce RTX 5080 mobile GPU.
The Legion Pro 7i also incorporates modern features like WiFi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, USB Type-C with up to 140W Power Delivery, Thunderbolt 4 with DisplayPort 2.1 (40Gbps), and a USB Type-A port with USB 3.2 Gen 2 specifications. It retains an RJ45 ethernet port, a rarity in today's laptops, and includes a privacy shutter for the webcam. The chassis, made of aluminum and magnesium, ensures durability and a premium feel.
While we haven't yet tested Lenovo's latest Legion laptop, we have evaluated a gaming laptop with the RTX 5080 GPU. The RTX 5080 offers only a marginal improvement over the RTX 4080 in raw rasterized performance but significantly enhances performance in games that support DLSS 4.0 with multi-frame generation. The Gigabyte Aorus Master, equipped with an RTX 5080 at a 150W TGP rating and a 2560x1600 display, mirrors the specs of the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i, suggesting similar gaming performance.
"Nvidia has emphasized the AI capabilities of its 50-series GPUs over pure native rendering performance. Although the RTX 5080's performance is disappointingly close to the RTX 4080, this gap narrows significantly in games that support multi-frame generation. While 'fake frames' may be a meme, their impact on performance can be remarkable when implemented effectively. The experience varies by game; for instance, Alan Wake 2 may feel laggy at higher multiplier settings, whereas Cyberpunk 2077 does not. With emerging technologies like neural shaders on the horizon, investing in these future capabilities is a gamble on Nvidia and game developers to enhance support in upcoming and existing titles."
