The latest 8 th gen Lenovo Legion Slim 7 series is designed to answer the demands of the gamer who needs a laptop that can run AAA titles with ease while still being agile enough to handle other tasks such as streaming, content creation, or work computing. Available with Windows 11 and up to a 13 th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-13900H processor in the Lenovo Legion Slim 7i or up to an AMD Ryzen™ 9 7940HS processor in the Lenovo Legion Slim 7, both have up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070 GPU and up to 32GB of 5600MHz DDR5 RAM that bring worlds both created and explored to crisp, vibrant life on their 16-inch 16:10 Lenovo PureSight gaming display.
The laptops are built to stay cool even under heavy load, thanks to Lenovo Legion’s ColdFront 5.0 advanced thermal system, featuring quad copper hybrid heat pipes, phase-change thermal compound, and a brand-new air intake and 90blade fan system – resulting in just 48dB of fan noise in performance mode. The thermals are pushed even farther thanks to the onboard Lenovo LA AI chip, which dynamically tunes thermal performance to maximize framerates and minimize noise, allowing the Lenovo Legion Slim 7i and 7 to reach up to 140W TDP.
The 99.99Whr battery—the largest allowed in the internal cabin of most airplanes —allows users to work uninterrupted when inspiration hits with up to 10 hours of battery. While Super Rapid Charge provides a full charge in as little as 80 minutes via a 230W Slim Adapter, both USB-C ® ports support 140W charging as well as DisplayPort™ 1.4. Wi-Fi 7 7 is supported thanks to the Filogic 380 Wi-Fi 7 card by MediaTek, making the Lenovo Legion Slim 7 series one of the world’s first Wi-Fi 7 enabled laptops and engineered so that slow internet speeds won’t be a bottleneck to success.
The full-sized Lenovo Legion TrueStrike keyboard has a full numpad, large arrow keys, and 1.5mm key travel designed for smooth typing over long sessions. The keyboard is customizable both with interchangeable WASD keycaps as well as via Lenovo Legion Spectrum per-key RGB lighting and is also available with a white backlight for those looking for a more understated aesthetic. All this computing power is housed in a slim (as slim as 17.99mm at its thinnest point) all-metal chassis available in Storm Grey or Glacier White8 , and weighs in at under 2kg (4.4lbs), making the Lenovo Legion Slim 7i and 7 the most agile Lenovo Legion Slim laptops ever.
Lenovo Legion believes in empowering gamers with more choice and flexibility, and this is most visible on the new 8 th gen additions to the Legion portfolio—the Lenovo Legion Slim 5i and 5. Choices begin at laptop size: the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 and 5i are available in 16-inch, and there’s even a 14-inch Lenovo Legion Slim 5 which sports an OLED panel.
The Lenovo Legion Slim 5i is available with up to a 13 th Gen Intel Core i7-13700H processor, while the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 is available with up to an AMD Ryzen 9 7840HS processor. Both models are available with up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU. Legion ColdFront 5.0 keeps gaming sessions cool and quiet while helping to prevent throttling, with its larger hybrid copper heat pipes and fins, phase change thermal compound, increased air intakes and exhaust, as well as a turbocharged 12V dual liquid polymer fan system.
The up to 80Wh battery offers up to 8 hours 1 of battery life and supports Super Rapid Charge6 , which means less time charging and more time on the go. And with a USB-C port that supports 140W charging, feel free to leave the Slim charging brick at home for even more portability. The full-sized Legion TrueStrike keyboard is customizable with replaceable WASD keycaps as well as Legion Spectrum 4-zone RGB lighting, adding a striking splash of eye-catching flair to the Storm Grey or Misty Grey chassis. An all-white backlit keyboard 8 is available for a stealthier look.
Gaming Displays
Lenovo Legion’s newest pair of gaming displays offer two ultra-wide visuals for immersive gaming. When it’s time to switch from gaming to productivity, both the Lenovo Legion Y34wz-30 and R45w-30 Gaming Monitors offer the multitasking flexibility of PIP/PBP, KVM, as well as Lenovo’s True Split technology, which allows the display to be partitioned into two discrete monitors with just one input cable. An onboard high speed 2.5G RJ45 input on both monitors provides stronger, smoother, and more stable connections during competitive gaming sessions and meetings. Both displays are compatible with Lenovo’s Artery software which offers gamers advanced functions to tweak their displays exactly, as well as gaming tools that give gamers an extra edge when gaming.
Gamers who demand accurate color, contrast, and speed, need look no further than the new Lenovo Legion Y34wz-30 Gaming Monitor. The 34-inch ultra-wide WQHD curved mini-LED DisplayHDR 1000 panel delivers lifelike contrast between deep shadows and crisp brightness. With 125% sRGB, 95% DCI-P3 10bit color depth, and Delta E<2 color accuracy, the only thing blurry about the Y34wz-30 is the line between virtual and reality. The 180Hz (overclocked) refresh rate and 1ms MPRT response time mean uncompromisingly smooth gaming. The Lenovo Legion Y34wz-30 also supports 140W of power via USB-C, supplying power to laptops or other devices, as well as HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, and a USB hub to support a whole host of connections.
The new Lenovo Legion R45w-30 Gaming Monitor—Lenovo’s newest 44.5-inch 32:9 widescreen monitor—is a great choice for gamers and creators looking for extra screen real estate to fully immerse themselves both in their games and their workflows. The 120% sRGB, 115% DCI-P3 display peaks at 500nits brightness, and its 165Hz refresh rate is overclockable to 170Hz, translating to a smoother, more encapsulating gaming experience. The 1ms MPRT response times ensure that fast-twitch games feel natural and effortless. Support for AMD FreeSync® Premium Pro, and New Adaptive Sync minimizes screen tearing while maximizing HDR, translating to a truly immersive gaming experience. The Lenovo Legion R45w-30 supports USB-C gen 2 with 75W of smart power, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, and has a USB hub and audio out ports to support any configuration of accessories.
