Lenovo Legion 5i 15.3" OLED Gaming Laptop vs Lenovo Legion 5i 15IRX10

Both are Legion 5i gaming laptops with a 165Hz OLED WQXGA screen and RTX 5060 graphics, so the real split is the CPU and the panel size. The Lenovo Legion 5i 15.3" runs Intel's newer Core Ultra 7 255HX with 20 cores, Wi-Fi 7 and Thunderbolt, and it is a little lighter. The 15.1" Legion 5i uses the older Core i7-14700HX, which is still strong for gaming and multi-core work, and owners call it solid and well built with a standout OLED screen. Pick the 15.3" for the newer platform and connectivity; pick the 15.1" if you want the same screen and GPU with proven, familiar hardware.

• Choose the Lenovo Legion 5i 15.3" if you want the newer Core Ultra 7 platform, Wi-Fi 7, Thunderbolt and a slightly larger OLED screen.
• Choose the Legion 5i 15.1" if the older Core i7-14700HX, a 15.1" OLED panel and easy RAM upgrades are enough for your games and work.
