The mobile gaming laptop market has been booming in recent years, especially with the arrival of innovative AI processors. A great example is the Lenovo Legion Pro 5, which offers a complete and balanced package that is particularly suitable for gamers, professional content creators, and professionals who need a powerful mobile workstation.
In terms of design, the Pro 5 feels very similar to its predecessors in the Legion series, and that’s not a bad thing. The body has a clean metallic finish, aside from the logo, giving it a very refined appearance. The chassis feels solid and stable, weighing about 2.43 kg — not exactly a monster you can’t move.
The laptop’s screen definitely joins its list of impressive highlights. It’s a 16-inch OLED display with WQXGA (2560×1600) resolution, a 16:10 aspect ratio, a 165Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness of 1100 nits in HDR mode.
The colors are deep, the blacks are absolute, and the contrast is high. Combined with Dolby Vision technology, the result is one of the best viewing experiences on the market. The screen also supports NVIDIA G-SYNC and Advanced Optimus, so the system can automatically switch between the integrated and discrete graphics to balance performance and battery life.
At the heart of the machine lies Intel’s new Core Ultra 9 processor with 24 cores (8 performance and 16 efficiency cores). This processor also includes the NPU unit – Intel AI Boost – which delivers up to 13 TOPS for local AI processing. This provides a significant advantage for AI-related workloads.
On the graphics side, you’re also getting an excellent card. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 delivers impressive mid-high performance, strong enough to run modern games such as Cyberpunk 2077 or Starfield smoothly in QHD+ resolution, with full Ray Tracing support. Combined with the processor, it offers a powerful experience for both gaming and professional work.
The laptop also comes equipped with quality speakers and all the connectivity you could need: Bluetooth 5.4, Wi-Fi 7, and Gigabit Ethernet. In addition, there are two USB-C ports, including one with Thunderbolt 4, as well as HDMI 2, USB-A ports, and a headphone jack.
The keyboard remains one of the best in the field – featuring 24-zone RGB lighting, comfortable and fast typing, and full Hebrew layout support. The 80Wh battery provides about 6–8 hours of general use depending on workload, and it supports ultra-fast charging (Super Rapid Charge) with a 245W charger that reaches 70% in under half an hour. The recommended retail price is NIS 8,553.
