Lenovo Legion 5 15IRX10 Gaming Laptop vs Lenovo Legion Pro 5 16IRX8

The Legion 5 15IRX10 is the stronger pick for raw performance: a 14-core Core i9-14900HX, 32GB DDR5 and an RTX 5070 on a 15-inch OLED. The Legion Pro 5 16IRX8 is the more practical machine: a larger 16-inch 2560x1600 matte panel, touchscreen, Ethernet and a rated 7 hours of battery. Build quality is close, both being Legion chassis, but the Pro 5's bigger cooling and matte screen suit long sessions while the Legion 5's OLED wins on contrast and color. The Legion 5's 3.9-out-of-5 rating from only 10 ratings is thin evidence, and its refurbished condition means you should check warranty and return terms before buying.

• Choose the Legion 5 15IRX10 if you want maximum CPU and GPU power, 32GB of memory out of the box and an OLED screen for gaming and creative work.
• Choose the Legion Pro 5 16IRX8 if you prefer a larger matte 16-inch display, a touchscreen, wired Ethernet and longer unplugged runtime.
