Finding an excellent affordable gaming laptop isn’t easy, especially when shopping under $1,500. This is a price point where significant aspects of the hardware get tossed onto the chopping block. But once a while, a glimmering nugget of gold shimmers within the pile of underpowered gaming laptops. And in this case, that is the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro.
With the power of an RTX 4070, this laptop excelled in all of our performance benchmarks and demolished more expensive competitors without a sweat. Beyond that, it boasts a perfectly balanced keyboard, moderately vibrant and bright display, and a sturdy exterior with a strong hinge. I couldn’t believe its sub-$1,499 price point, as even when not considering its amazing value, it’s one of the best gaming laptops in general.
