Lenovo launched a new notebook, dubbed Legion Slim 5, outside China with powerful specifications. This machine comes equipped with AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS processor and supports 140W fast charging. It gets a 14-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.The new Lenovo Legion Slim 5 debuts with a sturdy build, weighing 1.9 kg. The 14-inch laptop is not big enough for a number pad and measures 21 mm thick. It looks similar to the Legion R9000X 2023, which debuted recently in China with Ryzen 7 7840H. Lenovo has packed the Legion Slim 5 with an AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS processor, paired with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 with a performance release of 105 W. The laptop comes with 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM and up to 64 GB of LPDDR5X-6400 RAM and 1 TB of PCIe 4.0 storage.
The laptop has a 14.5-inch, 2800 x 1800-pixel display with a 16:10 aspect ratio, a 120 Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time. The display supports 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and up to 400 nits brightness. Other features include a 73.6 Wh battery, 1080p webcam with a privacy shutter, stereo 2W speakers, support for WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.1, and a backlit keyboard with swappable keycaps and 1.5mm key travel. Interestingly the keyboard has a white backlight rather than the per-key or per-zone RGB lighting we often see in gaming laptops. The laptop also has a physical shutter button to disable the camera when it’s not in use. Lenovo expects to start selling the Legion Slim 5 14-inch gaming laptop next month.
