What are you trying to show with that link? Sure it's a 5070, but half the RAM? And $50 more? That's not a better deal at all.

eh, that's half the ram. Given that the cheapest 32gb DDR5 kit right now is gonna be atleast $250, this could be a better deal for some. If we weren't in the middle of a Memory shortage with no signs of it slowing down and possibly only getting worse this deal makes total sense.

5060 performance isn't too far from 5070 but upgrading from 16gb to 32gb memory can cost quite a bit of money.

Community Reviews

This Legion Pro 5 pairs a 16 inch 1600p OLED 165Hz display with a Ryzen 7 8745HX, RTX 5060, 32GB RAM, and 1TB SSD, making it strongest as a premium screen gaming laptop with generous memory. The 32GB configuration stands out because upgrading laptop RAM is costly right now, and the OLED panel gets praise for brightness and image quality. The main knocks are the $1180 price, the 8GB VRAM limit, and the lack of USB4 on this CPU version. It is a solid fit if display quality and memory matter more than chasing the cheapest 5060.

Common Questions (6)

  • The 16-inch 1600p 165Hz OLED panel with 500 nits is a major selling point and is considered far better than typical sub-$1000 gaming laptop screens. It's also a point of disagreement versus MacBook displays, with some preferring the Legion's panel and others preferring the MacBook's.

    OliveTest4274OliveTest4274lulimetOliveTest4274

  • It's a stronger value if you want the 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD configuration, especially with the 16-inch 1600p OLED 165Hz panel. The main knock is that similar RTX 5070 laptops have appeared near the same price, and this model has reportedly been cheaper before.

    Dr.WCoolRaccoon247EricJ19Zonic102

  • The RAM can be upgraded later, but the GPU is fixed, so some buyers prefer spending on the better graphics card first. In this deal, the included 32GB DDR5 matters because upgrading from 16GB to 32GB can be expensive right now.

  • The RTX 5060 is close to the mobile RTX 5070 in performance, but both are still 8GB VRAM cards, which can be limiting in newer games. That makes the GPU acceptable for many titles, but not ideal if you want extra VRAM headroom.

    yujieCoralPen5986RichardR2949NoSleep007

  • No USB4 is reported on this configuration with the Ryzen 7 8745HX, even though it does have USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 with Power Delivery and DisplayPort 1.4. That missing port is one reason the laptop may be priced lower.

    XDeckerOliveTest4274

  • One reported unit hard-crashed under gaming load when the CPU spiked past 100°C, even after BIOS, driver, power-profile, and fan-profile changes. Stability was only achieved by capping the CPU at 99% with boost disabled and running the fans at full speed.

Hey guys. I ordered one on 2/19 and received it by 2/21. Since then, the laptop has been nothing but a huge disappointment. The CPU spikes over its critical shutdown temp of 100 degrees and immediately hard crashes the laptop when playing games. This condition is not exclusive to heavy load either, as It crashes after soaking in the menu in a few games.
These crashes happened with a cooler in place, several bios (original, rollback, updated), several power profiles (balanced, max performance), untouched install, CTT debloat tweaks, several gpu drivers (lenovo update, nvidia standalone), and several fan profiles (quiet, performance, extreme, full speed).
The only time I able to get it stable was to limit max CPU to 99% with boost disabled and have the fans on full jet mode on a balanced power profile. The Dell G15 with a Ryzen 5800H with 3060 6gb that this laptop was supposed to replace puts this "new" machine to shame. After doing a quick search on the web, sadly found that I'm not alone with this issue. I'm taking this $1200 pile of e-waste to BestBuy to get my money back. Good luck to all that bought it. I hope you get a good pull.

Not a good price for a 5060. We have 5070 deals at this price now. And this has been as low as $1049-$1099. Idk why this is being thumbed up.
Lol, new 5060 for $1180 is a bad deal, but a refurb 5060 from Newegg for the same price is a good deal?

Yes, the only reason I posted that is because people considered this deal good. If you see the posting date, both deals are almost 10 days apart. Additionally, the processor is significantly better (powerful and efficient) than the Ryzen 8745HX in this, and the display although not OLED is better for gaming offering a 240Hz refresh rate. Thanks for the snark comment when the differences were obvious.
