Design & Thermal Management
The 2024 Legion 5i features a refined chassis that looks professional enough for an office setting but hides serious gaming hardware. The Coldfront 5.0 cooling system is effective, keeping the i7 HX processor and RTX 4060 within stable temperatures during long sessions.
Gaming Performance
With the 140W RTX 4060, the Legion 5i handles modern AAA titles at 1440p High settings with ease. Frame rates in esports titles like Valorant and CS2 easily saturate the 165Hz display.
Display & Keyboard
The 16:10 WQXGA display provides extra vertical space for productivity while being fast enough for gaming. The Legion TrueStrike keyboard continues to be a favorite, offering a tactile 1.5mm of travel.
