Our take on the Lenovo Legion 5i (16", Intel Core Ultra 7 355HX)

The Legion 5i is Lenovo's mainstream 16-inch gaming laptop, here with an Intel Core Ultra 7 355HX and a discrete NVIDIA GPU driving a 2560 x 1600 screen. It is the value-minded step below the Legion Pro line: same big screen and gaming focus, but a simpler chassis and fewer premium extras. At about 4.3 lb it is light enough to carry to class or a desk, and the 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB SSD cover everyday gaming and schoolwork. Reviewers generally rate the Legion 5 series as one of the better-balanced mid-range gaming laptops, though the base storage and memory leave little headroom for large game libraries or heavy multitasking.

Questions and answers

Is the Legion 5i good for gaming?
Yes. The Core Ultra 7 and NVIDIA graphics run modern games at moderate to high settings on the 2560 x 1600 screen. Expect to lower settings on the most demanding titles.
How does it compare with the Legion Pro 5i?
The Pro adds a sturdier chassis, more ports and stronger cooling for higher-end parts. The standard 5i is lighter and simpler, and suits buyers who do not need the extra headroom.
Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?
Yes. The Legion 5i has accessible memory and M.2 storage slots, so you can add RAM and a second drive. Check the exact configuration before buying.
Is the 512 GB SSD enough?
It is tight for modern games, which can take 100 GB or more each. Plan on adding a second drive or managing installs carefully.
How heavy is it to carry?
About 4.3 lb, which is light for a 16-inch gaming laptop. The power adapter adds noticeable weight in a bag.
Does it come with Windows installed?
Yes. Windows comes preinstalled, so it is ready to set up and use out of the box.
